Four sets of five drabbles each, "Five Mornings," "Five Afternoons," "Five Evenings," and "Five Nights." Some of these were written in response to Southern_Witch_69's request for drabbles for Phoenix Rising.

Yummmmmmm Home and Presence.... yummers
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Glad you enjoyed the tiny taste of ADMM!
Devotion - I like that one, didn't like the one where Minerva is waiting on Albus on the Window Sill - that one made me sad, but the Snape Granger one made me happy.Duty is - The Sorting Hat! *collects prize???*
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Yes, Waiting is a rather melancholy drabble.I'm glad you liked Devotion -- I thought I might like to write a full story around that one, but never did.A prize . . . must think about that! But in the meantime, how about a few more dragons? Seven Dancing Dragons:
They're dancing in a chorus line! Sadly, they also set the stage curtains on fire . . . a very short-lived act! 
Response from Fishy (Reviewer)
ROFLMAO! LOLOLOzzzzzzzz 
OMG that was hilarious.... I love some dancing dragons chorus line with extrea stage fire!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
I'm glad you enjoyed your interim prize! 
Mrs. Figg has two guests! Harry AND Minerva! Minerva is spying on Harry in Tabby Spy form! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Super Tabby!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Yes, Super Tabby, indeed!
HEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, I love the "Ouch" "Sorry, Albus" apple core one... awww, poor Albus! She must make him feel better!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Ah, yes, I remember that one! It was inspired by the Gamp party pick-up game. I'm sure she gave him a lot of TLC! 
Odd.... some I get, some I don't... makes me ponder.... pondering is interesting... if not aggrivating, *winks*
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
These were some of my first drabbles. They're good discipline, I think. :-)
Some much said in so few words. I'm intrigued!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thanks! I hope you enjoy the others. Drabbles are a challenge to write.
Filius sings The Beatles! How great is that?
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Tahnks! I thought it was an amusing and sweet image.Thanks for reviewing!
I like how Pamona takes the initative with Filius. Its all so romantic!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
I'm glad that you enjoyed that! Thanks for the review!
I hope the tabby cat in Tea was Minerva offering whatever comfort she could give to Harry.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Yep, Minerva was the visitor whom Arabella was expecting by Floo and for whom she brought the special salmon. She stayed to sit w/ Harry.
I wonder where Minerva was working before Hogwarts? Who turned into a ghost? Drabbles are so hard for me I always have a million questions.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Remember that Professor Binns fell asleep by the staff room fire and got up the next morning as a ghost & kept on teaching? Thanks for reviewing!
These are quite nice, and I am sad that this is the last bunch in this "story"
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thank you! I'm very glad you enjoyed them.
I know there's no chance of winning, but it is the Sorting Hat. I really liked how Pomona just took the worry of asking her out right out of Filius' hands.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
You're right: the Sorting Hat. Glad you liked the little Pomona-and-Filius story. Thanks for reviewing!
Thanks for pointing out the number of guests. I think I assumed it was only Harry, too.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Yes, a drabble goes by so quickly, it's easy to miss a small detail like that. ;-)Thank you for the review!
interesting and attention grabbing
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thank you. I'm glad they held your attention. :)
"Waxing" is a delight. We attracted some fireflies with sparklers the other night, and I love to associate that pure joy with Remus and Tonks. "Presence" is a deep, relaxing sigh.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
I'm glad you enjoyed those. I haven't really written any Remus and Tonks except for these drabbles, but they were fun.I think "Presence" is my favorite of all the drabbles.Thanks for reviewing!

Aww, "Waiting" is so bittersweet after my weekend of reading. I like your Pamona in these drabbles; she's got spunk. I love the spark when Remus and Tonks catch each other."Devotion" is a fascinating concept; is there more? It's hard to tell sometimes with all of the short pieces you have. Not that I want anything to distract you from writing more of DD!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Devotion is one of the drabbles I thought I might eventually do something more with, but I haven't. Glad you like Pomona in the drabbles. :-)

Oh, I like how "Flowers" is sweet with a touch of heat. I got a big, goofy grin at "Tea" and laughed at "Accuracy." "Heat" was a pleasant surprise; that age-difference thing does work for Sev both ways.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
If you liked "Heat," you should read the one-shot, "Heat," which uses the drabble as its start. A lot of people did enjoy it. I thought you might get a grin at "Tea." I'm glad you enjoyed them!

I love drabbles, and I thought this would be a good brain break. Each of these tells a story, and I like the sense of melancholy and hope. Even the order seems purposeful.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thank you! I basically wrote the drabbles as a kind of challenging exercise in brevity. I am glad that you enjoy them! I don't know as they're my forte, but they were fun to try.

I like them ALL ! but of course the first one resonates the most with me! Love Fawkes' tears on his wounds - I should have remembered that and put them in my own damn fic! *bangs head on desk*
Well done!
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed them . . . my faves are in "Five Nights," but some people prefer the "Five Evenings" set. Yeah, the hippogriff wounds came to mind immediately after I envisioned him waiting alone in the cold dawn . . . and I've always wondered if Fawkes went to him when he disappeared. I presume we will find out in DH. Thanks for reviewing! (And your fic was really focussed on his emotional healing, so I don't think anything was lacking in not mentioning his physical wounds.)
The sorting hat, of course. Lovely fic. The snippets are going well with the philip glass I'm listening to while reading. Variations on a theme with sweet bits and dark morsels. thanks
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
I'm glad you enjoyed it. My other set of drabbles is a bit more sweet with no dark morsels, so some lighter music would probably go well with it -- perhaps Liszt or Chopin.
Thanks very much for reviewing!
This was a really nice and moving set of drabbles. I don't usually like to read drabbles, but yours are an exception. I think you have an indescribable talent. I especially liked the night drabble "Love" with Flitwick and Sprout. I laughed when I read the last few lines.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thank you! That was one of my two favorites; I'm glad it could make you laugh! 
I appreciate your taking the time to review. Thanks very much.
*thud*I need a cig.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
*chuckle* I take it you enjoyed that!
Thanks for all your reviews!
The sorting hat is teh POV in Duty.Another lovely set.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Yup! Glad you liked them!
*thud*Well done!Accuracy is exceedingly cute and charming.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
*grin* Thanks!
total and absolute bloody perfection!wowI love the feel, its as if I am spinning and catching a glimpse.Love the one with Binns and Snape.
Response from MMADfan (Author of Circadian Rhythm)
Thanks! Glad you liked those two. The Snape one was the first drabble I ever wrote, but it seemed the sort of scene that could be captured in 100 words, and I'm happy it worked!
Thank you for reviewing.
