| Nice story! It seems very believable to me that Harry would want Dudley to come to his wedding. |

| This is a great one-shot. I really like the way that Harry said he wanted to ask his Aunt, Uncle and Dudley to the wedding. Ginny had a great idea about meeting them beforehand to get the "awkwardness" over with. That was a great idea. I'm glad they waited long enough for Dudley to get there. I can understand why Harry was suspicious about Dudley. He was a completely different person than he was when Harry saw him last. I think it would be great for Harry to have at least one blood family member there at his wdding. Very well done. It would make a good beginning for a longer fic if you wanted to. Thanks for writing. p |

| Thanks! I doubt I'll ever expand it into a longer fic, but you never know. |

| This was quite pleasing to read. it's well written with believable characterisations. I like stories with Dudley growing in his relationship with Harry. We saw the first step in DH, then the remark about them exchanging Christmas cards made by JKR could lead to this sort of person. |

| That was great! I love stories where Dudley has become human and decides to be nice to Harry. I love especially here that he's dating a witch! |

| I'm hoping we'll get a little bit of information about post-Deathly Hallows Dudley on Pottermore! Thank you for taking the time to read and comment. |

I absolutely adore this story! Your Dudley has grown up so much from what he was in the books; I suppose people change quite drastically in five years and all of Dudley's changes have been for the better, it apears. The job of bouncer seems to suit him quite well and the fact that he learned to embrace magic while the Dursleys were in hiding is definitely a step in the right direction. Like Harry, I'm stunned and quite pleased that Dudley's serious about a witch. I'd love to read a story wherein Harry and Ginny go to Dudley's wedding and the bride was magical.
You did a nice job, too, of showing Harry's resignation that his aunt wouldn't show for the meeting because Vernon was still so stuck in his ways. (Those two are never going to change, even if Dudley nearly convinced his mum that she should come with him to meet Ginny.) Harry's surprise and eventual suspicion that Dudley might not be who he claims go right along with his job and how he must act at work. I'm glad that he was eventually able to relax around Dudley enough to realize that while they'd never be bosom buddies, they could actually hold a civilized conversation.
I've read this story twice and am going to read it a third time because it fulfils my idea of the people Harry, Ginny and Dudley have come to be as young adults.
I give this story for giving me the desire to read it multiple times. |
