Title: The Trouser Incident
Author/Artist: dustmouth
Recipient: kittyaugust
Rating: G
Contents or warnings (highlight to view): *illegible handwriting*
Word count: several, terribly handwritten ones
Summary: A series of inconsequential letters between a werewolf and his live in Dog Star. Or the one where Sirius is doing mysteriously important negotiations somewhere up north, Teddy sniffs tinsel, and Remus does his best not to burn all the toast.
Notes: kittyaugust, you asked for so many wonderful things, it was my sincere pleasure in having a crack at it! I did mean to be terribly impressive and organised, and to have actually decent looking handwriting in their letters back and forth. But- well it ended up looking like this haha. I do hope you can read it! I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!!

This is very sweet! They make an adorable family. I loved the art and the look of the letters. Loved the discussion about the underwear. Remus's sense of humor shown through here. Sirius was excellent, too. I could hear their voices very clearly.

Oh my goodness! This is the best thing ever. Seriously, it's everything I love. The letters and the mixture of stationery used and the love and affection between the lines (and in them). And the comic sequence at the ends, so sweet and silly and delightful. This was the perfect antidote to 2016. Thank you so much!

GODS, girlie, you make my heart happy.

This is lovely, so sweet, hilarious, just so typical you, typical them.

You're amazing, you are.

OH MY GOOOOOD!Those letters and the drawings!these are melting me with cuteness.Too much!ACK!I love it!
Teddy's letter had to be the most adorable things ever, oh the 's'!That was just perfect. I liked the addition of Narcissa and Andromeda keeping in touch very much.

The tone in those letters, they were really perfect. Sniffing tinsels-hahaha!Sirius's clumsy landing and Teddy sneaking behind Remus with the chair-dear God, I'm in love with this!

omg, you don't know the squeak of delight I made when i saw you had made a SECOND ART FOR ME TO ENJOY (well, I mean for eveyone to enjoy hahaha) and that it was THIS AMAZING THING!!!

Firstly, the style of the letter is brilliant!!! I did something similar for *a fest*, and your note about the handwriting cracked my up as all I could think in mine was "how is anyone going to survive the way I write? I can't even read this...". But your handwriting is LOVELY and I love the way you changed the styles for different characters. Omg, and Teddy's writing, and him not wanting toast for dinner, uggghhhhhh I have Remus-raising-Teddy feelllsssss, you're ruining me today! (it's an okay thing, I have a headache and I came here to be ruined haha, thank you for assisting).

Sirius falling through the Floo is so good, and Teddy running up to hug him (MY HEART!) is perfecttttt, and then the last scene of Remus. Ugh, so good!! <333

Oh my goodness, if this isn't just the sweetest thing ever! I love everything you do, but this was absolutely perfect for this time of year. I adore all the different bits of paper, and the notes from Teddy (who was just precious) and then the ending! Teddy sneaking behind Remus with the chair was just perfect. And how excited Teddy was to see Sirius be back. I love when they're a real family and Sirius gets to be just as much dad. And look on Remus' face when Sirius gets back. You do always have the best expressions. This was just wonderful!

Ahhhhh!!! These letters are hilarious, I love it! "Oh darling werewolf" and Teddy's letter and the banter!!! *swoons* I love the little details like Sirius adding the note that it should make Remus jealous hahaha, and his drawing of the dog with the ornament. I also love how he falls onto the cushion while presenting the present, and Teddy in the background with the chair. I just adore this so much, and the family feels are wonderful <3333

Guh, this entire thing was true medicine to the soul, it's all so heartwarming and absolutely wonderful in every way! I love all of their voices (I love that Teddy was a part of the exchange as well :)), and those final drawings of Sirius falling, haha, Remus knows his man well, and the fairy and the hug and OH MY GOODNESS this is so good and this brightened my day ♥
