Another great story. Some parts were extremely sad but the story flowed so well. I absolutely loved 6-year-old Severus!

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

I'm glad you enjoyed this one.  Six year old Severus was really interesting to write.  I thought Hermione complimented him really well here.

that was a truly wonderful story.  i'm always torn between evil!lucius and redeemed!lucius but your lucius was the best.  thanks so much

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.  I like writing redeemed Lucius.  JKR can have her evil Lucius. :)

Very cute funny and some great touching scenes. I don't think I've read any stories where Lucius turned into a good guy. I like it :)

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

I'm glad you like it so far.  I have several stories with Lucius as the good guy.  I'd always hoped JKR would surprise us at the end and make him good.

I loved this story, it was a great stoy, you made the pairing of Ginny and Lucius actually acceptable, and real.  I like the way you ended it too, because it makes the whole story go in a circle.  It's a good story.

Wonderful story, very enjoyable read. Little Sev and Hermione behaved just like 6 yr olds , bossy, impertinent and oh so cute ( I have one of my own so I know!) Ron and Harry holding hands.. snuck that one in didn't you. Thank you for sharing your imagination with us all

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

Thank you.  While I was writing this, I had hoped I was getting the 6 year old attitude correct.  I'm glad you enjoyed it.

This is a very sweet story, but Sorcerer's Stone? Surely Harry & Ron would refer to it as the Philosopher's Stone; they are, after all, British.

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

At the time I wrote this, I was watching Sorcerer's Stone on DVD, and it is referred to them in that movie as Sorcerer's Stone, so I just wrote it like that.

Severus...and Potty!

oh it's just too funny.

I like your story... but I really think you need to put a non-consensual sex warning on it (even though it's mild, it's still there.)

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

Hmm...I don't believe there was any non-consencual sex here.  I wrote this a while ago, can you tell me which scene you felt it was?

I thought this was a great story and found myself laughing almost through the whole thing.  I've enjoyed reading all your stories and hope you continue the great work.

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I had a wonderful time writing this. It was fun turning Severus and Hermione into kids.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and leave me a review.

Well these small packages contained a lot of fun, no literature Nobel-prize, but aching abs for laughter!

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

Aching abs are just what I was looking for when I wrote this.

Thank you for taking the time to read and review. I had a wonderful time writing this.

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

Thanks.  I wanted to end things on a high note.  And I couldn't resist a little Lucius running around causing havoc with his little buddy.

Oh I like Wyatt Snape or is it Severus Earp the gunslinging Potionsmaster from hell.Cheers Moepi AKA Michèle

Response from ancientgirl (Author of Sometimes the Best Things Come in Small Packages)

LOL, I'd been watching Tombstone and if you look at Kurt Russel's costume as Wyatt Earp, its quite Snapish.  So I just had to add that element in here.I'm glad you enjoyed it.Thanks taking so much of your time and reading all of these.
