Yeah, the Malfoys are stuck in generations of belief. Draco has a chance. It is frickin’ difficult as the author to shift them, but by bit from canon... they are STUBBORN in their beliefs. They will experience their own heartaches, beyond what they have already. Hopefully, they will grow from it.
Likewise, with all Harry has been through, with him floundering after his reason for existence for the last 7 years now GONE (hurrah), but with him still alive, he grasps out for meaning. He may be a bit too willing to bend to others’ needs. It’s all he has known for years. He will learn to find his own way instead of just accepting the ways of others (If I can get him there.) He is stubborn in his own right (really?!?) but he has never really had the chance to figure out who he is and what he wants outside of what others want for him. in his yearning for family, he will do as Andromeda needs him to. He is discovering the yearning for understanding that he never gave himself permission for (there were always more pressing priorities.)
The story is not abandoned. It is always in my mind, but I find myself daunted by what I’m trying to do. Stupid author’s self-doubt. That plus life have gotten in my way more than I want. Nevertheless, the next chapter is mostly written, as are snippets through to the end of summer and even one or two beyond.
I will finish this.
Thank you so much for your comment! I think you’ve inspired me to add writing in this to my weekend plans.
