WOW! I don't usually read Lily and James stories but this one was awesome. I couldn't stop reading even when my mom called me for dinner about 5 minutes in. Great work.

| Great story, Baffy! It was really sweet, and you pictured the Marauders perfectly, it was really funny. Keep up the good writing, you've got talent. |

Great! I really enjoyed this, especially Slughorn playing matchmaker and Snape making a fuss and Sirius's gaggle of giggling hair-flickers and lovely Lily and James. Very sweet.
Oh, and I'm dying to know - how many Death Eaters does it take? |
| Thursday 16th February 2006 07:33 | One Step Closer to Heaven (Author Response) |
Thank you Ladybug. I'm very happy that you enjoyed it and picked up on some of my favourite bits too!
I was *so* hoping someone would ask, so thank you! How many Death Eaters does it take to tile a bathroom?
Well, it depends how thin you slice them! (And now you may groan, go 'eww' or guffaw. ) |

| Great story. You did an excellent job of integrating what we know about these characters into your story, to tell a truly wonderful tale. I think you really portrayed their personalities well. Great job. |

| Oh my goodness, this is amazing! I love the contrast between fluff and more serious tones. James's concern for his friends and family is so him. Good work!! |

| Oh...wow!! I absolutely ADORED this!! Great, great job! A lot of times, writers don't capture the marauders and Lily very well. But you did an absolutely wonderful job. I loved it!! My favorite part was in the morning, with the realization of Dragonpox. I'm glad you put in a few 'darker' parts in it, having to do with James' family. It made the story more realistic. This is perfect, I love it. Perfect ending! |

| Thank you Delfino. I think I must be visible in the dark now, I'm glowing so much after your lovely review! I'm glad you liked the hints of darkness I suggested; as Hagrid told Harry, they were 'dark days --didn't know who ter trust'. I felt unmitigated fluff would be wrong for this era, but they had their moments too! |

| This was a truly cool fic. I love the interaction of James and Lily - it is exactly as I imagine them myself. I also love how James and Sirius play off each other. Very well done! |
| Thursday 16th February 2006 07:20 | One Step Closer to Heaven (Author Response) |
| Thank you very much, Hank. I bet the marauders were holy terrors in their day, being intelligent, quick-witted and puckish! |

This was great! It's always nice to have efforts that provide a possible glimpse into the past and build on characters we only know so much about. You did a great job of picking an interesting story line that provided: angst, confusion, giddy-nervousness, and of course, romance. It also gave good examples of caring, friendship and humor.
Awesome effort! |

| his gaggle of giggling hair-flickers is a fabulous description. Great fic; you created extremely vivid images and I felt like I was hovering over the characters' shoulders the whole time, watching. I liked how James was starting to mature a bit, and Lily was starting to unbend toward him. Good blend of the humourous and the serious, too. And now that you've mentioned marmite, I feel like vegemite on toast! |

Thank you Wild Magelet. I appreciate your detailed review --I do enjoy knowing how things come across for the reader-- and reviews like yours are a great help for that.
On toast... yummy --and me with the worst attack of the munchies ever! |

Lovely moment. I like your take on the relationship between James and Lily. (though, eep, her background isn't exactly canon - parents didn't know she was a witch until she got her Hogwarts' Letter, I thought)
But I REALLY like the focus of the story, the interaction between the two. Well done. |
| Thursday 16th February 2006 06:59 | One Step Closer to Heaven (Author Response) |
| Thank you Tante. I couldn't find anything that suggested when Lily found out she was a witch, but I certainly had fun searching TLC, so I let that stand. I wouldn't be surprised if you're right though. I'm glad you enjoyed James and Lily's interaction. It's a challenge to make Lily cheeky and yet not come over like Ginny! |

| Thank you Nubble. Yup, J/L kinda creeps up on you, doesn't it? I'm glad you enjoyed the characterisations, as I tried hard to portray them using what we recently learned. |

The bathroom door opened. "You wailed?"
Remus sighed. "Which might be plausible, except the other one is on his nose, and not by any stretch of the imagination does Prongs need to shave his nose!"
Marauder comic goodness and L/J fluffy sweetness. Nothing could be nicer. |

| Nice. Definitely not what I was expecting, but that'll teacy me to read summaries all the way through before jumping into a story, right? I have to ask, even if you don't respond, where did all you authors get the whole dragonpox thing? Great story!!! |
| Thursday 16th February 2006 06:41 | One Step Closer to Heaven (Author Response) |
Thank you, Fuzzy.
Dragonpox. Yes. Where did I get the idea from? Well, I imagined that dragons would have their own diseases, and some of them would be likely to jump the species barrier. In 'Fantastic Beasts' JKR mentions that the breath of a Nundu can cause diease virulent enough to eliminate entire villages and so I extrapolated from that. |
