The war ends for everyone.

Marauder era, 1200 words. Everything in bold is quoted from T.S. Eliot.

This is terrific and wonderfully artistic and creative.

The multiple perspectives works so well and gives us not just the view of the familiar canon characters and the tragedy that ends the First War, but those on the fringes of the activities that people wouldn't necessarily think about. In particular, I enjoyed the Padfoot section - the form and structure of that are very well implemented. I also loved your Stella Lovegood - you managed to flesh out a lot about her with a great flair for economy.

Wonderful job! *adds to memories*

*beams* Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Oh, I really enjoyed reading this! It's fragmented enough that I believe in the chaos of the night, but reads so well, and completely logically, if that makes sense. It's awesome! :)

Thanks! I had tons of fun picking out some new viewpoints to see Halloween '81 from.

Wow... this is just amazing. I love the little pieces, here and there, of reactions and realities of the end of the war. The part with Alice and Frank was especially wrenching, as we know what comes later. And I adore Stella Lovegood and Luna wrapped up!

Thank you!

One of my current projects is a Frank/Alice story (the first part was posted a couple days ago), and I'm expecting the last parts of it to be just as wrenching... :(

Hee, yay! Stella is an Ollivander, and she got that papoose from her own parents, who took a trip to America to get wand woods before Stella was born.

Good story on showing different character's reactions to Voldemort's defeat by Harry Potter as a boy. Do you plan on doing a followup piece on everyone's reactions to the Longbottoms disapperance and injuries?

Thank you!

And no, I hadn't, but I was thinking about an end-of-the-Second-War piece in the same style. My current project is Frank/Alice for rarepair_shorts, and I'm expecting the last few chapters to be rather wrenching.
