Notes:

I am such a big fan of blue_keyboard’s writing. “An attraction born of low-simmering tension and bluntly forged intimacy” is such a banger of a line. It stayed with me since the first time I read it
Absolute art

Notes:

Favourite part of this chapter to narrate was Pansy screaming about Draco and Theo having “nooses around their necks” and refusing to accept help, which just tells us so much about their dynamic.

Notes:

My favourite lines of this chapter were
“I can’t sit this war out. And what you don’t seem to realise is you. Can’t. Either.!”
And also
“You don’t think I’ve chosen?”
Oh! Oh! And the Felix Felicis scene?? Girl… I…
