    Ms_Figg - Thank you! I am tickled to return a tiny fraction of the pleasure you've given. Yes, Molly is really most sincerely dead. The scene had hardly formed in my imagination when a deranged Molly appeared, with plans to burn Hermione on Ron's pyre like an Indian widow - and a nasty trap meant to do it all laid for our girl. Drrr. *Molly* annoys me, too. Poof! :D

    I was going to just drop Ron off a broom onto his head, as any number of better authors have done, but then I couldn't resist trying to pile all Ron's other failings onto his cause of death: drinking too much, eating too much, bad table manners, being greedy for money, ill-considered outbursts of temper and, of course, always ogling the ladies. Hee hee!

    Thanks again. I've never posted here on AFF, but I couldn't resist after I saw your musical challenge. You rock. :D

    Swth: I had to read the story a few times over to absorb it and will probably have to look up a few words I know that most likely have to do with the pyre itself. Lol, I'm a simple soul I guess. I enjoyed the use of the pyre and the represented groups attending the funeral. A drunken death this time for Ronnekins, eh? I also enjoyed the dialect used. But I am a bit confused. Did Molly die as well? She certainly was rather cruel toward Hermione. Thank you for your addition.

    Ah AngelPrince: I'm being encouraging and enjoying the ideas that are being put out. I'm not in critique mode. I haven't critiqued anything for years. I am generally a Simon when I critique, and I really don't care much about spelling errors, word usage. punctuation and the like, because things like that are mechanics and can be fixed. I fix them in this series for the authors that need it because it helps with readability, but I do as little as possible and I never mess with the content. The content is the heart of the piece and the author's true work. And the content of these little shorts have been very enjoyable.

    As a poet who participated in critique sessions, I've had to suffer through tons listening to poetry full of flowery language and no content, and poets who just want to show off how "pretty" they can write. Ooh, did they get blasted. I'd say things Simon would be proud of . . . such as: "All right. I've sat here and listened to three verses of nothing but descriptions and alliteration. Where the hell is the poem???"

    lol. Yep. That's me. That's also probably why I am more action/dialogue oriented than descriptive in my stories. But, I digress.

    I'm of the mind that as people read, they absorb what moves them and learn it subconsciously. I know some of the stories here have been contributed by people who have never written any fanfic and find that despite the need to learn the mechanics of writing, their ideas are good and they can tell a story. All they have to do is learn the mechanics. Hell, I'm still learning the mechanics. lol. I still don't always do my quotes right, or capitalize the things that should be capitalized. I have tons of references in stories to "deatheaters" rather than "death eaters." There's plenty wrong, believe me. :) But I said all that to say this, I wasn't being gentle, Angel. Just appreciative. I think you have had other reviews but weren't named. Just the story referenced. ***

    "100 Ways to kill a Weasely" have given me such amonts of pleassure while reading, I should almost feel ashamed of my self. Poor Ron, I have had a torn in my side for him for the longest time, finding him immature, whining and totally unsuitable for Hermione. When JKR not only made him and Hermione kiss at the end in book 7, but also added that badly written epilogue, Rons faith was sealed; I become totally allergic to any fic that pairs him with Hermione, and when that is done, no hurt, humiliation or pain is to great to get him out of the way so Hermione can find happiness with someone better, like our beloved Potions Master....:-)) That makes this series of fics so brilliant, and I am so grateful for all the authors who have submitted a chapter, I can't thank you enough!!! I think I will print all chapters, and every time I need to get into a better mood, I can read a chapter or three, that will be a sure way to make me smile:-))

    I enjoyed this very much, Slasher. For a short piece it elicited a lot of emotions. Anger and pity for Ron, sympathy for the poor Weasleys, sadness for Hermione, then a bit of anger at Ron. And Snape, well he's Snape. I'm always happy when things work out for him, good or bad, snarky or snarkier. Thank you. :)

    Oh my goodness. I'm just rolling here. Death by Werewolf???? Snape actually hands Remus a mint???? ROFL!!! I did a bit of editing on that story for the author, not too much . . . just for clarity's sake. And AngelPrince, that was absolutely BRILLANT!! Snape took Ron out, lololol. Great! Thanks ***
