    Ota darling this is beautiful! The layers of backstory and worry, the stalwart persistence of Theo and Blaise, Harry fearing to let them close and the three of them focusing on each other's safety... I love it!

    "Harry shoves his sleeves down again, ignoring the itch of his wrists (how he wishes to trace the letters, to follow the simple elegance of the double initial on his left, to untangle the vines of the triple letter upon his right, how he wants to spend hours thinking through who these people could be, these people who could be his hope-)"- lovely poignance in this piece

    "None of it fixes how anger, thick and heady and ugly, keeps seeping through his marrow, sparking beneath his skin until sometimes his fingers glow gold from within, amber-deep and burning enough to scorch parchment or leave dark smudges on stone."- beautiful writing, and I do enjoy when Harry's magic is active like this

    Kudos and admiration,
    Rain,
