Reviews For More Than Enough

Hi Courtney, I just thought I'd drop by to leave a review for the Arctic Gift Exchange and can I say, I'm so glad I did!

 

That was so so sweet and wholesome and had little hints of this and that that I just adored seeing (although you may know that I'm a sucker for wholesomeness and family and this really really delivered!)

 

I especially loved the dynamic between Gideon and Fabian on their own, the brotherly banter but also concern was super heartwarming to see. And it was super interesting how Molly's presence changed up this dynamic, since it kinda extended to envelop her as well - I really liked this, it was subtly yet very clearly done.

 

I have a huge soft spot for family protectiveness (especially when its not the father of the women/daughters cos no offence to anyone but thats kinda cliche *cough* and not to mention sexist *cough* lol), and I liked how Gideon's exteneded to everyone, including his brother and nephews. 

 

I thought the subtle use of language and dialgoue in their interactions/thoughts/feelings to explore their relationship dynamic was spectacularly done, especially the part about Fabian's romantic relationships, and the genuine concern that Molly had for him :)

 

Overall, really great exploration of these relationships and wholesome family moments done in a short one shot!

Hi Della, 

 

Thank you so much for this review! This story was great fun to write. I love my Prewett kids (yes I'm about weirdo about how I feel about the Prewetts and Weasleys xD), and just wanted to give them a scene that we don't normally see in fanfiction. :) I think they each are inherently protective of one another, but since this is Gideon's POV, we only see his thoughts on this. I agree though, sometimes when a Dad gets weirdly territorial about his daughter, it can be weird. I try not to write those types of scenarios if I can help it.

 

Anyway, thank you so much for stopping by to share your thoughts on this!

Hi, Courtney!


This was a cute little story. I've never read anything with these OCs in it before, but I can definitely see the family resemblance for the sets of twins. I enjoyed the banter, even if I do think I missed some things going on in the background. 


I think I would absolutely be interested in seeing more of them and the way you write the Weasley and Prewett dynamics. The fact that Molly switched around the F and G names when assigning godfathers was a cute very sibling-like touch.


I can definitely understand their reluctance being involved with the order and worrying their sister when she's just had a kid, but I wonder if she already suspects, and how she'll think back on this time in the future, once she herself gets involved.

 

A cute story. Thanks for the opportunity to read it!



Author's Response:

Hiya Kat! Thanks so much for this review! This was intended to be just a nice, family fluff one-shot because I think its a travesty that Gideon, Fabian, and Molly don't have more interactions in fanfiction. I hoped to give them that here as well as allude to the little inside jokes the three of them share together during this special family time. 

 

It's funny you mention wanting to see more of how I write the Weasley and Prewett's interacting. I write them quite a bit. Quite a bit inconsistently as well xD. This is only piece I wrote where Fabian and Gideon were in fact twins. I always thought it was canon, but forgot it was only fanon when I started this. Since I was already headed down that path of ultimate fluffiness, I figured to just embrace it and give them middle names to suit their godfathers and all that jazz. 

 

And yes, I think given where all three of them are in their lives (all very different stages), it makes sense they are reluctant to tell her the extent of what it is they are up to. And likewise, it puts her at risk, knowing things. I think from what hear about the First Order of the Phoenix in canon, it was viewed more as a "rebel group," during this time as opposed to how we see it in canon. Still a rebel group, but with more "official," backing, I suppose? Or it's seen more on a largescale thing in the Second Wizarding War because I think it feels more dangerous in some ways? I don't know if that makes any sense. But anyway, I think Molly learning of her brother's involvement then (like in this story) versus in canon, would play out differently. And would affect the family differently.

 

I wanted to acknowledge this without centering the story totally around that. Because even the darkest times need a little bit of light shining on them. :)

 

Anyway, thank you so much for reading and sharing your thoughts! It is much appreciated!

Hello, Courtney, my love! Here with your requested review! <3

And just so you know... I would've got here at some point anyway, eventually, because yes, I do love siblings relationships above everything! :D But thank you for bringing me here sooner rather than later! <3

This was absolutely lovely! I adored it so, so much! I loved your Fabian and Gideon, their natural charm, the way they just attract attention and enjoy it! :P We don't really know much about them, but it seems so fitting! :D

I really loved the moment in the waiting room, too, and little Bill and Charlie! So cute! I just got all these family feels, it was brilliant! Also, it made me smile seeing Arthur's parents and Molly's parents just easily chatting... It's just a nice image! And Percy being all fascinated by the book his grampa is showing him... I just loved all the small details there! <3

Poor Arthur... :P two new additions to his already large family must've been a bit of a shock! :P

I loved the playful teasing among Molly, Fabian and Gideon! You portrayed their relationship so well! <3 I just loved reading their conversation, it flowed so easily and was just so lovely! And little Fred and George!!! <3 <3 <3 I loved the detail of them not being able to sleep apart, and that Fabian and Gideon were the same as babies! It's just so heartwarming! But also, it makes me slightly sad, because I know things about their future... Btw, the little references to the war were subtle but so effective. There was this undercurrent tension that you weaved in so well... it's sad, but it's also easy to pretend it's not there and just enjoy the fluffiness, and I think you balanced it magistrally! <3

Side note: that bit about Rookwood amused me... it reminded me a little of the rivalry between Arthur and Malfoy... I kind of want more detail about that :P

That whole discussion about marriage was so lovely, too! I can totally see Molly pushing them about that... So naturally, she never stopped nagging them at it from the time they reached "acceptable marrying age." Of course, what age this was, was an opinion that differed among all three of them. This was a brilliant line! :D

And you give us more war bittersweetness with Fabian's girlfriend being a Muggleborn... of course that would make him even more tense about it...

I loved the F&G names theme! And the switch with their middle names, and how she gave them middle names after her brothers in the first place, and that they want them to be godfathers... it's all just so soft and cute! (Sorry, I keep saying cute, but that's just the best adjective here...)

I hope it's clear from this messy rumbling, but I adored every single word of this! <3 Thank you so much for writing and sharing! <3

Huge snowball hug,

Chiara



Author's Response:

Chiara, thank you so much for your review! I'm so glad you picked up on the little details in this one. Like the whole "marrying age," thing. I feel like we're universally badgered about that (women also with babies) just because it's a thing society expects. And I REALLY enjoyed taking these three and giving them all different ideas about what "acceptable marrying age," is. I felt like while they are siblings...they are very different and lead different lives. :) 

 

Anyway, I had a feeling you might enjoy this one because you write familial relations so well too. So I really appreciate you taking the time to read and review this story. It warmed my heart!

Hey Courtney!

 

Thanks for entering my challenge, I'm so excited to read this!

 

Omg my heart is already full. I don't remember timelines and stuff and whether this really would have happened, but I love that we get Fabian and Gideon meeting Molly's kids. I love their characters so much already! Their so sweet with the younger boys! They remind me so much of Fred and George which I'm sure was the point but I really love it. I also love how much they tease Molly!

 

I also loved the conversation between the twins and Molly, getting to know them all a little bit more, and their banter was so authentic and enjoyable!

 

Ummm and omg to read that my little story might have inspired this?! Ahh I'm so honoured! <3

 

I absolutely loved this so much, it was the exact kind of Weasley family wholesomeness I love from you, and your writing was gorgeous as well. Thanks for entering!



Author's Response:

B, thank you so much for reading and reviewing! <3 I was delighted to have an excuse to write a story about the Prewett siblings and their relationship, and your challenge gave me just that! I totally did not mean for this story to feel like yours, I had different motivations when approaching it, but was like "shite, this looks similar lol." Either way, I hope you take it as a compliment that you unconsciously inspired this story. 

 

And yes, I wanted Gid and Fab to somewhat be like Fred and George, but also, kind of their own people too? Hopefully I achieved a balance there :) Anyway, thank you so much for reviewing and for hosting this challenge!

can i just say i fucking adore the way you described the prewett twins in that first paragraph, my god, what perfection, it's like so little but tells so much i'm impressed and i love them already. (also now i can't erase the thought of molly yelling and cursing arthur after the uhh-honey-it's-twins realisation hits home and it's a fucking hilarious image haha). and i love love love the sibling relationship between fabian and gideon and molly, they're just perfect - they tease each other and they love each other and it's so damn obvious in all of their interactions here that it makes my heart hurt when i think about what happens later on with fabian and gideon and it really hurts and is very unfair. but the way gideon thinks how molly's family (+fabian and his own obviously) is more than enough for him i just literally went awwww

(for foxy glory!)



Author's Response:

Thanks for commenting on their description of walking. That was so much fun to write. I was inspired by a scene in Mean Girls and the whole thing just felt very Gryffindor swag and I couldn't help myself LOL. 

 

I wanted to show the three of them having a strong bond. There's so few stories that explore their relationship overall, and I felt like this was a good opportunity to do so. 

 

Thanks again for reading and reviewing, Kris!

*Fairy review thingy continued*

Wow - I really enjoyed this and I see why it's in the running for 'best dialogue' for the inkys.  The banter between the three of them is really well done and despite the fact that they are twins, I was definitely able to discern Fabian from Gideon (which I often had difficulty doing with Fred and George - they were like one character).

This is a beautiful little glimpse into Molly and Arthur's world in the middle of bringing up a growing family and at the same time with war just on the horizon.  I can absolutely see and appreciate the twins keeping what they knew from their older sister and find Arthur's sense of doom weighing him down to be darkly funny and so believable.

The back-and-forth among the three of them was brilliant and I loved the glimpse inside the Prewett psyche.  When you mention that the Prewetts tend to build walls against invulnerability and hide behind sardonic wit - I could understand that there was much more to each line of conversation.  Knowing this, it was easy to read into every comment - and think about the words they used and then the words that are left unsaid just beneath the surface. 

Thanks for writing this and sharing it.  As for future ideas with the Prewett boys - I wonder if they were as troublesome as their godsons when they were at Hogwarts...

-Drew



Author's Response:

Thanks for the review, Drew! 

 

Honestly, I just wrote this thing for a challenge and because I wanted more stories centering Molly's relationship with her brothers. So often we see Molly stories and Fabian and/or Gideon stories kind of lumped into two camps. It was great fun to explore them together in a moment like this. And thank you for the comments on the Prewett psyche. I felt like it also helped explain some of the things Molly says to her kids in canon. There's a softness to her, but she's fierce af, and god help you if you cross Molly Prewett. I also think her life experience (that she hasn't entirely gained in this fic here) also explains a lot of why she is in canon. But we won't get into my pro-Molly Prewett propoganda here in this review response. Just know I have thought A TON about her lol.

 

Also, yes, the twins were just as much a surprise to Arthur as they were Molly. So naturally...he's a little woozy about suddenly having five kids when they very clearly planned for four lol. 

 

And it would be cool to see Fabian and Gideon during their Hogwarts years. I'm not entirely sure if I will write that but...thanks for the idea :) I definitely want to explore Fabian & Tabitha more. I think that would make for an interesting story during a time of war. 

 

But thanks as always for reading and reviewing, Drew!

Hi there!

 

Aww, this was such a sweet fic! I've never thought much about Molly's brothers and this makes me quite sad, to think they did know the kids and were even quite close to Molly before they died. It's a shame they never got to see them grow up. It's nice to think there was a normal moment among all the chaos that the war brings, even for just a second.

 

I loved the tradition they've created, like bringing chocolate and flowers, and the drink as well of course. It was sweet to think they got to meet their sort of namesakes, despite what Molly says i don't think the F and G names were accidental. 

 

This was a really lovely fic.

Author's Response:

Shaza! I so appreciate you taking the time to leave me a review! I quite enjoyed writing this and the little traditions that the three Prewett siblings share. I just love little things that family members do that become their own thing, ya know? And yes, the thing with the sames was coincidential but also not. ;) It's meant to be something like a contradiction. Again, thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to read this!

Hi Courtney :)

I feel like your Fabian and Gideon Prewett are just the ultimate incarnation of these characters because you write them with such depth of emotion, physicality, and personality, even in a fic as short as this one. We don’t get to see the Weasley kids as smol babies in fic very often, so this was a really unique thing for you to write! And it pairs nicely with Bianca’s baby Harry + Marauders fic, in my opinion :) Fabian having a girlfriend but not knowing if a) they’ll make it out alive or b) they’ll be able to be together when the war is over is so heartbreaking, but it makes sense why he doesn’t tell Molly any of this. Gideon being absolutely unbothered about marriage or dating is a big mood; he loves his family just as it is, new twin additions and all. They are twins, yes, but you make them distinct in their voices and mannerisms, and that’s hard to do with identical people. In general this was a very sweet, touching fic and I loved it a lot so shout out to all the people recommending it <3

Author's Response:

Aww Madi, your words are so kind! Gid & Fab are like...definitely hard to write. I just feel like everyone has very distinct ideas about them, and we know very little, so it's a hard characterization to do. But. I am glad to hear that you think they're realistic here. I just love the idea of them being swaggering (sexy) Gryffindor bois in their mid-twenties hah.

 

And I am glad you commented on the differences in where the siblings are in life. I was aiming to show that they all see the world differently, but that family is kind of everything to them. And yes, it makes it all the more sad knowing what happens to Gideon and Fabian.

 

And GAHH OMGAWSH, thanks for recognizing that Fabian and Gideon are twins, but thay are not the twins (Fred and George, I mean). I REALLY was trying to show that yes, they're related and might be similar, but they are not the same. So yay that comment made me happy. :) 

 

Again, thank you so much for reading and sharing your thoughts!

Hey Courtney!

 

I'm here for the fairyland event!

 

This is such a beautiful piece, I've read a couple of your pieces now and what stands out to me is how good you are at getting into the heads of your characters, the way you're able to write that inner thought process taking into consideration their personal situations and motivations is amazing! I love how you portray the weasley as a happy family but tackle the issues that they may face as well. We don't really see that layered aspect to the family in canon. I like how you address it though. it makes your stories feel so rich and full.

 

I love the simple concept of this piece, the interactions between the characters was so perfectly played. Their relationship with Molly, Arthur and their nephews was adorable. I loved the banter-ish dialogue between the siblings in general. I thought that was really well played. it gives a really sense of what they were like. I think it makes it more heartbreaking reading this because we know what happens to them. You've made these layered characters, humanized them just passed their names makes their deaths (even though not written about in this piece) seem so much more emotional and hard hitting.

 

I never noticed before that both sets of twins have 'f+g' names before. I didn't really occurred to me before. That's a cute detail, I like how you build upon that theme with making the gideon and fabian godfathers to the boys and have their name as their middle names. I think it shows the bond between family which is lovely. The focus on the piece in on gideon and fabian but I really like what you did with Molly's characterisation during this piece. I thought just the little details about her loving chocolates to her comments about 'maybe that's why i keep having babies' because she missed her brothers so much. It was very powerful statement.

 

the way you handled those undercurrents of War, the pressure that twins felt was perfectly balanced between those fluff moments of meeting the twins. I felt sorry for Fabian when he mentions his potential girlfriend being muggleborn. you place these little sad emotional hits so well amongst the other emotions at play during this piece. I really loved this piece, I thought your little end notes too, I love B's When the Marauders Met Harry too. I think B would be very proud that she in some way helped inspired your piece.

 

Abbi xx

 



Author's Response:

THANK YOU Abbi! Your words are so kind. And ok, now I need to revisit your AP and read something else of yours because I feel totally spoiled by all of your reviewing! 

 

I love that you pick up that while I portray my Weasley charries as loving, and a totally happy family, there's always a bit of stress/anxiety/something a wee bit complex there. Family dynamics are complicated and sometimes those relationships are hard. You might love one another, but you're only human and other human emotions get in the way. 

 

I'm a total sucker for banter. I feel like...I just do it and that's my claim to fame essentially LOL. And yes, the F&G concept of name sharing and them both being twins (totally a fanon idea that I forgot wasn't canon while writing this)...it lends to a connection and SOME similarities. But I wanted them to be different. I am glad it shows here.

 

And yes, yes, Molly Weasley is MY GIRL. I will always try and make her seem more complex than just the TM Mom look she gets in canon. It's my life's mission. I just can't help it. 

 

Anyway, I so appreciate everything you said in this review! You are a gem!

hi, courtney! i'm here bc i felt left out from all the reviewing and i know that you've left approximately 13 billion reviews so i wanted to stop by your ap. <3

so i *love* your writing - there's just this amazing undercurrent of humor in your descriptions that's both incredibly engaging and gets across a lot of characterization. the bit about gideon and fabian swaggering and enjoying the attention was just incredible and made gryffindor-me like them immediately.

and i loved how just *playful* everyone was here. molly's "i didn't order a set of one, but it seems i'll be stuck with two" made me crack the fuck up - suuuch a good line! and molly's "no, f+g is just a coincidence" was amazing. yeah okay molly, we all believe you. (but omg, how sweet is that, though?!)

goddd though the "she's better off not knowing" is both almost certainly true and a bit of a kick in the stomach - ditto fabian being all like "i want babies" when we know that that's just not going to happen. and molly's "will i ever get to meet this one" hammers that home so hard, especially since i don't think she understood what he meant by it complicating things - it seems to me like he was talking about "it might be too dangerous for her" or "she might have to flee the country or go into hiding" or something along those lines, which doesn't have anything to do with how much he cares for her.

poor fabian.

i love this story so much, though! <3 amazing job!

Author's Response:

Branwen, omgawsh you're so nice for leaving me a review on this! <3 I just HAD to respond because of what you picked up on in the first paragraph bc I had this INSANE visual of them just walking like the chicks do in Mean Girls down the hallway at school. I have NO IDEA WHY but that image got stuck in my head and I couldn't unsee it hah. But I am very glad you also applied that to their gryffindor-ness, because that also makes sense :) 

 

And aww omg...I am so touched you thought Molly's line was funny! Sometimes I think I'm just making myself laugh whenever I write shit like that, so it was nice to hear that someone else thought it was also hilarious too. And yeah...it's partially a coincidence. Maybe unconsciousness not a coincidence, but consciously, yes, she's trying to be all "sarcastic Prewett," and shit because they don't do vulnerability (in my mind hah). 

 

Anyway I am so delighted you picked up on so many things I tried conveying through this little one-shot. And OMGAWSH I SAW YOU NOMMED THIS LIKE...that's just so nice I cannot. <3 Thank you again for reading this and for sharing your thoughts, that was so nice of you!

Hi Courtney! Here for the fairyland review event!


Oh the twins meeting the twins. Ever since the first time I heard the headcanon about the Prewett brothers being twins I have always loved it. This was a really lovely slice of life and I enjoyed your take on the Prewett brothers — jovial and cheeky as I always envision them, but still serious about things, like work and the war — and family! How you can tell they love their nephews so much. And I really loved that about the theme of the fic, taken from the title, “more than enough” — how this extended family of theirs is enough, more than enough for now, even though Fabian obviously dreams of something more down the line (but not until the work is done). That makes it so sad, though, when you think of what happened to him in the end. It was a lovely story, though (and I am lol-ing at Arthur looking sick — like kind of feel badly for him, but also, lol).

 

<3 Melanie



Author's Response:

Yeah I was halfway through writing this when I was asked the question: "Oh you headcanon the Prewett boys as twins?" And the glass shattered and life as I knew it ended. Ok, well not really. But I TOTALLY forgot this wasn't a canon thing and was a fanon thing. But yes, I do headcanon them as twins. Although definitely trying not to just make them be Fred/George predecessors. Don't know that I was successful here but ya know. I try. 

 

It was important to me that they each had their own views on family, marriage, children, etc. Even Fabian and Gideon as twins needed to have their own identities, and feel differently about all of those things. And yeah, sometimes I suprise the hell out of myself and the title aligns with something more than the song that inspired the latest fic haha. ;) 

 

And Arthur really wasn't sick but ya know...more like internally freaking the fuck out. Hah. Someone had to. It felt right that it was him. ;)

 

As always, thank you for the kind words and for taking to the write the insanity that spews out of my mind.

Hi, Courtney.

First of all, let me say that I love the charming view of the three little boys, Bill, Charlie, and Percy, in the waiting room. Each brief glimpse is just right to impress in our minds that these are little kids, not the adults that we always think of them as. Here, 7-year-old Bill is aghast at the thought that he'd actually injured his Uncle Gideon's wand arm, 5-year-old Charlie is trying to swipe the dropped box of chocolates, and 2-year-old Percy is happily immersed in opening the windows in his sturdy picture book held by his grandpa.  Obviously written by someone with experience around little kids!

I don't know if we ever knew much about the personalities of Fabian and Gideon from the books, but here you present them very believably as jokesters, as Fred and George were, many years later, but in this story Fabian and Gideon are older (26 years) than Fred and George were (20 years) at the Battle of Hogwarts, so we detect an aura of more responsibility in the older twins than we saw in Fred and George.

The attitudes of the new mother ("I'll never do that again") and the new father (worried about the responsibility) are just classic, the stuff of perennial jokes.  But the mood of the story turns darker at the end, where the twins want to protect their sister from knowing how bad the political situation is, and they reflect that they cannot think of marrying or raising a family in these times.  The year in this story is 1978, and three years later, when Voldemort is apparently defeated in Godric's Hollow, Gideon and Fabian will already be dead.  They don't know that, but we readers do, and that makes it doubly sad.

A nice story.  Thank you for writing.

Vicki



Author's Response:

Vicki, thank you so much for reading and reviewing this! I love that you picked up on the kids and their various antics in the waiting room. I had fun writing those little moments and showing how much the older boys know and love Uncle Gideon and Fabian. :) I'm so glad it felt realistic to you! Also, I love that you pointed out Molly's reaction to having a baby and Arthur's anxiety. I just felt both added to the humor of the piece and am glad it wasn't just me laughing at my own jokes hah.

 

And yeah, I felt remiss to overlook what's going on historically and politically during this time. Of course it is terribly sad, especially since there's an implication that Fabian might be considering settling down and have a baby himself...I'm considering a story that centers that or at least centers them more in those years leading up to their death but...I just don't know yet if/when I will. We'll see though. 

 

Thank you again for taking the time to read and review!

Hello Courtney! I am here for the fairy review event, but mosly for the Prewett love and I love it from the very beginning of how you create this perfect image of the twins bouncing in unison together with "a sort of unified buoyancy in their steps"

 

Haha poor Arthur, I wonder if the nervousness made him sick, and it's so funny because I like this thought of how Molly and Arthur always just assumed, 'yep, this is the last one' and then another one came, and one more after that :D

 

Omg, both Fabian and Gideon, however brief this fic was, were just so PRESENT. I could imagine their faces and voices and the way they smiled at each other. There was this ease you wrote around them, much like Fred and George, but less blatantly humorous because they are adults going through dark and difficult times, and so at the same time there was also this mature weight to them, i felt.

 

I could just cry seeing them with Molly being all brotherly, teasing but bringing chocolates and even though while they're not overly forward with their affection towards her, you can just feel they dote on her AND SHE ON THEM, OMG MY HEART HURTS because they're all like, yes we need to see more of each other, and here i am knowing they're probably about to die very soon and i hate it :(

 

You write and describe babies so sweetly, I just awwed at reading it, even more at all the little interactions between the little twins and the big twins. How Molly named them and gave them opposite initials of her own brothers....omg so so much love and sweetness in such a small space, and it's so wonderfully subtle yet powerful.

 

I love that she actually has a drink with them :D

 

“And to all the memories we’ve yet to make,” Molly finished before throwing back the shot.

 

But those words....i'm honestly feeling super emotional about all that.

 

What a wonderful sweet fic. I wish this could be some sort of AU where Gideon and Fabian survive and just come round to the Weasleys ALL THE TIME, please write me one :'( <3

Author's Response:

Eli! I am so appreciative of you reviewing this little one-shot! <3 I love your acknowledgement of the first line of them swaggering. I had this insane image (see my response to Branwen's review) in my head that inspired this moment. So yeah. I can't take full credit for that idea. 

 

I am glad to hear that they felt like Fred & George but not. Because it was important to me that they kind of felt that way, but that they were different than her twins. And yes, sadly they will die, and not really get to know their godsons. But who knows...maybe I'll be inspired to write something one day where they don't die hah. ;)

 

And you know my girl Molly wasn't always the trademark goody toe shoes Mom. (; So of course, I was going to write her doing a post-baby shot with her favorite brothers.

 

Again, thank you so much for your kind words! I really enjoyed writing the little baby details and such. I'm glad you enjoyed this!

Hello There! This story had me simultaneously gushing over how simply heartwarming the Prewitt/Weasley familys are while also GUTTED knowing how it all turns out. Such great subtlety in the way you foreshadowed their ends. And just what good FUN this story was! All the warmth and love of a happy family mixed with the mischief of the twins.

Your writing was incredibly organic and flowed so nicely between narration and speech. I thought you did a great job of capturing each character’s common traits, but also keeping them unique. The paragraph about Prewitt’s sardonic wit and dismissing vulnerability was so spot on.

A very enjoyable read and featuring characters I’ve rarely read!

Also….ALL HAIL THE FROST KITTENS!

Ahh thank you so much for the review! <3 I so appreciate the kind words on the narration...my least favorite thing ever so...yeah always good to hear I do that decently. And I love you picking up on the similarities of Fabian and Gideon to the other twins, but also can that they're unique. It was very important to me to strike a balance there. 

 

Again, I so appreciate you taking the time to read and review!
