Very well done. I really enjoyed this new look at Walburga.

Ack. I've never really thought of her this way. Thanks for writing this, it really does give depth to her character that I wish there'd been time to show in the books. :)

Great job. :)

All thruogh this, I just felt that little curl in my stomach where you just know that whatever you're reading or soing, it's just so sad. It was lovely to see something other than a shrieking portrait of Walburga, she was human once.

I never taught this is possible.. I actually saw Walburga as human, as normal.. I understood her! Wow!
Congrats, this is a great fic (as all your fics!) ! You should write more about the Blacks, you seem to understand them! Maybe you could write how Sirius left Grimmauld Place?

Wow, this story is just amazing. I love how you made Walburga in this fic. It gives her just depth that I was looking for. I wonder how she would've felt if she had found out that it was her oldest niece that killed her son. hm?

Ooh, how interesting.

wow, that was a really saddening portrait of Walburga that I rather like. I always suspected it must have broken her heart when Sirius left just like Kreacher said. The riches of aristocracy are in their children after all.
And I immediately believe that the Blacks were less than happy when Regulus followed that terroristic band called Deatheaters. They put lots of money in protective charms after all. And they might have known dear Tom in his youth. Fits with the ages anyway. I always wondered why members of society would be tempted to follow Lord Voldemort, because really - what is there to gain? So he had to prey on the young.

that was very insightful. you managed a delicate balance of the proud woman and the mother. and now i've attached something else to the irritating screams. good job ;)

wow...i feel so sorry for her now.

Excellent - loved it. I like the looking at side charecters, and you've done it wonderfully.

You succeeded - I can't remember having encountered a more convincing Walburga than yours. The scene with the Dark Mark was a bit of a surprise, but ultimately it rang true. Voldemort is far too vulgar for a true Black.

wow, really good. Original idea.
