Twins, huh? Double trouble, just like Fred and George. :)

I'm pleased Fred came round, but what was with Ollivander, huh? ;)

I love to see the way they are moving on and getting ready for the next part of their lives.  Lee's story is very sweet.  Unfortunately, now that Stephen has stopped by, somehow I don't think he's going to stay out of the picture forever.

Knowing what is to come with Fred, I'm glad they've patched things up.  At least some little time before thestorm.  And on another tack - couldn't George magicallyenhance the bed to fit both of them more comfortably?

Wouldn't you know that Fred would be the stick-in-the-mud?  I suspect his problem was as much that he needed something, anything to be upset with just then so that he could vent his tension.  No one can stay angry at Annie for long, though.I have some thoughts about Ollivander's seeming interest in Annie.  I'll have to watch what you do with that.The next bits aren't going to be happy.  I can't decide whether I want you to hurry up and post or just wait for a while and enjoy the aura left by the end of this one.

Uh oh, who was watching them? :)

I like that the heartache is being taken within the context of a life well-lived and few regrets."This marriage isn't going to consummate itself!" George called from the bedroom. I don't know how, but coming from George that line is perfectly romantic and also perfectly him.  I love this little pact he's entered into with Gran that makes sure Annie will be taken care of, but somehow protects her dignity, too.I suspect there will be a second wedding, however.  I don't see Molly taking this without a ceremony she gets to witness.

Aww - that was a really lovely chapter.  Perfect balance of sadness and happiness and I loved the fact that Fred got to be there too.  But, I'm seriously worried about Annie's gran being left in the hospital with who I suspect is a Death Eater outside.  Or is it more likely he followed them back to the house...  I await the next chapter! xXx

Heh, I'd forgotten that the Diggory's were neighbors of the Weasleys. The new house sounds like an awsome arrangement.

Sniff, it's just as hard losing Fred the second time. I should have guessed it would be twins :o)

Glad that things are all right with Fred and George after all, because clearly DH is coming to it's bloodbath conclusion.

I love Annie's fantasy of wearing the Hogwarts robes, glad all is sorted out with Arthur and Molly.

Quite enjoyable, just as always!  I'm glad Molly got a night off!  I'm also glad that George got a chance to... erm... blow off some steam, in lieu of a better way to put it.  ;)

Heh, I love that it is Steven furnishing Harry's disguise. Excellent job with the wedding and ensuing chaos, thrilling moment with George protecting Annie with his body. So glad they are engaged.

Thatagirl, Annie!  She's seen the Magical world at its worst, now, but what other choices does she truly have, and would Obliviation really be any safer?  I think she picked the right option. 

And we're up to Deathly Hollows, are we? 'Scuse me while I get the tissues handy.

Wow, good thing that chapter started on a happy note, I'm trying to picture the look on George's face after Anne has her way with him.  Glad they didn't break up, amazing job you did on that - so much emotion and it reads true.

That was a lucky escape! :)

love the chapter as always.  Thanks so much for writing every week :)

awwww, I hope anne had more than one of those protection thingies, and I'm getting suspicious about her birthday :)

oh that Fred, but we knew Arthur and Molly would like Annie. Surprised Arthur didn't hijack her all night to learn about plugs.

Mmm... I think I could stand to see a little "prudence," LOL!  Nicely done, to weave the canon in with your story, here, and use it as a catapult to move the relationship forward, Yay!

Ahh, love the pool game, great image of the poolballs doing all manner of unnatural things.  Pity about Stephen being such a jerk, but then it's not like he ever stood a chance with George there.

I lurrrrrve the name Anharad. Reminds me of an SCA friend I haven't seen in years.

Good for Fred! And how nice that George *finally* gets to show off his magic.
