I've had this open for days trying to figure out what comment to leave.

This really really touched me. I admit that the only reason I opened it up was because it was on the watcher journal for [livejournal.com profile] hogwarts_today and I'd read something else by you and enjoyed it so I thought "what the heck". BOY HOWDY am I glad that I read this. Seriously this is just awesome. I've not read the other stories in this series (but have every intention of doing so) but this one... GAH THIS ONE is just brilliant. THIS is what Original Characters should be about - fleshed out realistic characters.

I'm so very glad I gave this a try because it was beyond brilliant. I love the little nods to canon and the way you've made it all so seamlessly blended together. I love the unique look at what the Muggles can or cannot see at Platform 9 3/4.

My favorite bit was I lean down. “Shall we both run, then?”

“Yeah.”

Robert Entwhistle’s son, Douglas, comes walking by, looking sharp in his uniform, and he gives us a nod, then looks at Toby in surprise, a slow grin spreading across his face.


That right there is what makes this whole thing awesome to me. The realization and the wordless communication.

Thank you so very very much for sharing this.
