Thank you for such a generous and detailed comment!
Minerva and Pansy were my favourite scenes, too, the first because I never believed that McG wouldn't at least feel the impulse to say something when I read that scene in the books, the second because of the continuously unfair way we are told "Slytherin equals bad" in canon.
I'm incredibly pleased that you found my take on Minerva believable, because I know that you like her a lot, this is a very high praise. *happy dance* This is the first time I wrote her, but she is a truly intriguing character, so ... who knows?
Fleur and Tonks would have been wonderful to make more points about being a woman who gets put back to child bearing and household stuff, but they didn't even have lines in DH, which is why I didn't use them in the end.
