oh dear!! molly is trying her best to be understated, but she just does NOT do that well!!

and severus...poor thing has been rejected SO much that a joyous welcome confuses him. i will admit, i am more like molly weasley in welcoming someone into the family, and i'd have to hug up on severus too. just to offset the LACK of hugs he's had all his life...

just like harry has. THANK you for writing this as a warm welcome to the family! (and *snerk* "sweet-cheeks"!!!)

this is a lovely lovely series, it really is. :D
