Yesterday was the delightful anthimaeria 's 40th birthday. She was my very first lj friend and is one of the best people I have met in the last 10 years, brimming with kindness, humour, talent and wit. One of the first fics I ever read was her Unfinished Business, and it still makes me laugh. Go and read it, it's a winner.

The fic below was a present for her and is a sequel of sorts to her tale. It's unbeta-ed and a little unhinged (I decided that I should let my lovely beta concentrate on some writing! So blame me for the glaring errors.)

I currently owe about 382 comments. Will get to them v shortly! Just need to beta one story, finish another and the next chapter on a third. Easy! (Cue manic laughter.)

Title Pushing the Envelope
Author blamebrampton
Words 2450
Rating PG, egregious management speak, sexual suggestions
Notes Absolutely nothing to do with Jo Rowling, Bloomsbury, Scholastic or any other media titans. But affectionately nicked from all of the above.
Summary Percy is inspired by Romilda's Ministry!, but old habits die hard for Ms Vane. A very foolish sequel to anthimaeria's very fabulous Unfinished Business.

( Pursuant to the aforementioned ... )

To the eternally youthful and wise anthimaeria, whose friendship, support and encouragement is largely responsible for the fact that I am in fandom, a very happy fortieth birthday!  You are a woman of great compassion and wit, and have truly magnificent hair and eyes. Really, what more could one want?



With much love, Brammers.
