Sometimes, what you think you want isn't what you need.Category: Works in Progress
Sometimes, what you need is the last thing you ever thought you wanted.
And sometimes, what you want and what you need are one and the same and you get lucky enough to realize it before it's too late.
The Weasley Eyeball and Disapproval of Lucius face made me lol.
But oh ginny. "[F]ive years of her life was over" - while these are supposed to be the 'happily-ever after' years, it's such a sour feeling how things don't always play out as you've dreamed. I like seeing her having to living past a vision she put so much stock in, it's something we all go through.
I loved the Ron and Ginny sibling scene. b25;
"Draco knew this was childish. But he’d taken on so many other things without a peep of complaint. He felt that he could have his childhood grudge to himself." - I want to hug the child in Draco. As all the Malfoys are punished, so is Draco, with the burden of his family's reputation.
Author's Response: 1000% agree. It was supposed to be happily ever after. Even without the epilogue, I always wondered how long it took to right society. And I love the fics where she and Harry break up, when she realizes that this is not what she signed up for or wants.
Well, it's D/G, of course there's friction between them. But friction creates warmth. And I can't wait to see them break down all the barriers between each other. My hearttt
The angst in the backdrop really comes up and hits. I'm also as invested in the story as I am in wanting to see D and G get smooshed together like dolls already lol.
Author's Response: Oh, I love and adore angst. Love. And. Adore.
Sex, too. IJS.
