Poor Al! *pets him*. I really can see Harry as a messed up parent. He certainly had no role models growing up (at least the first 11 years).

I can't believe I'd ever say this, but I think we need to move this Al right into Malfoy Manor--to hell with the Potters. LOL

I love that you made Draco 'balding', after all, he is in the epilogue.

Sad, wonderful story.

i really enjoy writing dysfunctional Potters. i'm glad you liked it, and actually that's the plan, i think i'll be writing a sequel to this one, as the aG/sS is lame, and the aG/sG doesn't really have anything else left to say to it. thanks for commenting!

Oooh, it must be the week for asshole!Harry. I've read him all over the place and even wrote one myself - although it may never see the light of day. :)

I love broken!Al and you wrote him beautifully. Well done, hon!

there's just something fun about writing dysfunctional!Potters. selective mutism interests me, as does the difference between choosing not to talk and feeling too anxious to talk (which was a big difference when i was reading articles about it) and when i saw 'sadness' as a prompt it just worked beautifully.

Poor thing....

And, strangely enough, I once had a student with elective mutism and it was very similar. I had to read his body language and when he really needed to communicate he would whisper to me. Interesting way of working that into a story.

Big hug for Al and big smile for Scorpius for being pushy. Al is going to need someone pushy...

i had a friend with social phobia in junior high and i remember her telling me the answers to a question and having to raise my hand and be like "amber says ____" because she couldn't say it to the teacher, but i've never known someone completely mute. i'm glad it seemed accurate :) thanks for commenting!

wow this is so good! i love how realistic it all is, with jame's reactions and everyone taking sides, and describing cho as a weepy aisan woman is brilliant! oh and the reference to the sectumsempre scar, loved it!
Scorpius is really cute in this, i'm glad he's all there and pushy for al, you should totally continue this!!

i had a bunch of surgery when i was in junior high, and 10 years later the scars still occasionally ache, so i figured with a magical wound it might be worse (and to tell the truth i also needed a reason for scorpius to be in a hospital)

yeah, this is going to be the gryffindor one i continue, as one of them sucks and one doesn't have anywhere to go, but this one still has so much more story left. i'm glad you liked it, thanks for commenting!

I hope you get the chance to update this soon! This is just so different and I love it!
