Summary
Grimmauld has slumbered since the death of one scion and the theft of the other; has lain still, like predator, like hunter, waiting, with only its most fervent and devoted acolyte in its walls. Grimmauld has had time to think and to ponder and to hunger in a way an ancestral seat should absolutely not be allowed to. Trapped.
And then Albus Dumbledore casts the Fidelius.

Bookmarker's Notes
Quite possibly the best HP fanfic I've ever read. Holy bejeezus. The author's other HP stories are really good too. The tone/vibe/mood is set in a smooth, insidious manner and refuses to let you go. This story manages to world-build family magic without making it or the characters OP. Gives "the kids are not alright", and a path towards independence without using Goblins or "at least one adult finally acts like one" tropes. It's just, I love re-reading this, and I cannot express how much I want more people to experience this story. I should re-read it again, and then edit this note to make it more specific, but god if you can only read one more fic before you die, make it this one.
