Thank you for writing this original and fascinating tale.
Author's Response: You're welcome! :) And thank you for reading and then taking the time to leave such an encouraging review! Very appreciated! It's always wonderful to know there are other Albus fans out there!
Wow, I was worried for a second there, I have started a similar fic only with Hermione as the female lead. If it gets posted know, however that it is in no way a rip off of your story which is, indeed, very well written and I love it very much. I am so glad I'm not the only one who likes a Dumbledore romance. :)
Author's Response: Thanks for your lovely comments - and glad to hear you enjoy a good AD romance!
No worries on similar storylines - only so many ways to skin a cat! I look forward to reading your fic!
this just popped up in "random fics" and omg, I loved it. it's beautifully written and extremely touching. it doesnt even have that "eww...it's dumbledore!" factor. bravo!
I'm so glad you linked this in your LJ. What a lovely story. I liked getting the glimpse --however fleeting-- of Albus as a young man.
Author's Response: Wow! Thank you so much for listening to me whine and then reading! Hee! I do appreciate your comments here - I love AD very much and it was wonderful to think of him in the romantic lead.
that was really really awesome! i love stories where albus can fall in love and have happiness.
Author's Response: Thank you! Yes, AD falling in love and finding a true happiness makes for an intriguing fic in my opinion, too!
Thank you for this beautiful story. Thank you for recognising in Albus Dumbledore the man as well as the wizard, and for Vivian's acknowledgment that as he is, so she loves him. Rare; almost extinct insight. Blessed be! N
Author's Response: Ah, dear Niamh! Thank you for these wonderful comments - I so agree with you about AD as a character! Blessed be. E.
Wow, what a truly wonderful story. I loved the way you have portrayed Albus as...well, human! He's powerful and wise and good, yet he is also a man with desires and love. Fabulous!
Author's Response: *bows* Thank you, Ira! I love the dichotomy of AD - the power and the human wizard!
I am so thrilled to see this here. It is simply one of the most touching pieces I've ever read. I just don't have words...
Author's Response: *licks*
This is a beautiful, evocative, lyrical, sexy, emotional, terrific story. Everyone should read it. They'll believe very quickly that the most important things are timeless. :)
Author's Response: Such fantastic praise - thank you, dearest. You were there for the birthing of the fic and you watched it move through its stages - thank you, thank you!
