Aww poor Lily! She has such a struggle accepting her feelings for James but I'm glad she goes for it in the end and the card sounds wonderful, if only all men were as caring and thoughtful as James!  |

| Aww, how sweet. (Hey, I tried to look up synonyms for sweet but they didn't quite fit. I mean, it would sound like an insult if I said your story was charming or *shudder* quaint.) So I reiterate, what a sweet story! |

| I'm not sure what to say. James and Lily are often shown in a manner that I wonder how they made it at all. You've made it just believable, though. |

Well, thanks, I think. I've just sent my beta a companion piece to this from James's POV which may help to persuade you. Or you could try my longer L/J fics in which I try to show how they've grown up and grown together a bit. I wrote them both because I too was frustrated with all those Lily-hates-James-then-suddenly-falls-in-love-with-the-arrogant-git-for-no-reason fics.  |

| This was incredibly sweet and emotional - I felt like I was with Lily the whole time. Wonderful job and original idea - this is the best James/Lily story I've read yet. |

This is the best Lily and James one shot I've ever read. They are my second favorite couple in the HP world right after Harry and Ginny. I could just truly see those scenes happening for real in my mind. So funny, and sweet, and romantic all rolled up in one.
Congratulations on your award, you definitely deserved it. This was the first time I've ever read any of your work, so now, I'm going to have to go back and read all of your Lily and James work.
I'm not sure if this has been done, but your story had me thinking. You should write a Valentine story on them from first year all the way through to seventh year. I would love to see how their friendship/relationship started from the beginning, even tho Lily thought he was a stupid git to begin with. If you hadn't already done this, you should consider it. It would definitely be a worthy read.
Again, Congrats on a wonderful one shot of LJ. |

Thanks so much - I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope you like the other stories.
I'm not sure I could sustain 7 years worth of Valentine's Days, but I'm currently working on telling this story from James's POV, so you might enjoy that when it's done.
Thanks for such an encouraging review. |

This was a really wonderful story. I loved how your characterization of Lily, she's exactly the way I imagined her to be. And the end just warms my heart.
Congrats on a most excellent story and your win. It was definitely the right choice |

I couldn't review as I was judging, but I thought that this was far and a way the best entry.
Ouch Parakletos, I can't say that didn't hurt a little.
Ah well good work girlyswot, I too really enjoyed your story. Congrats on your victory.

Likewise! 
Yours was very funny and sweet and I thought you did a good job of making it a plausible 'missing moment' despite so many canon restrictions. |

| Oh, very sweet. You do such a great job with tension in this and setting the scene. All of your OCs were fully realized and I liked the touch with Irma Pince. LOL Poor Lily. And of course James wouldn't give up. I would swoon over a drawing like that as well. I can see why this won first place! Congratulations again! |

Thank you!! There wasn't originally quite so much tension or scene-setting. It was just a short prologue to my Lily/James fic which in the end I abandoned because it was too similar to the first proper chapter. Anyway, it seemed to fit the Valentine's Day challenge except that it was only just over 1000 words. So lots of the extra tension and details are as a result of me having to make it three times as long!! But actually I do think that the extra scenes and the interactions with other characters like the mirror and the Fat Lady do add to the tension, and Lily's frustration. Plus they were really fun to write! I had a ghost, a mirror, a painting and a librarian - so lots of scope for the imagination.
Thanks for reading and reviewing! |

| Very sweet story! One question- I thought Fred and George bred the first Pygmy Puffs, as a crossbreed between puffskeins and something else... didnt they? |
