Ah, yes, I remember this entry. It's an insightful fic, and I like the Lestrange brothers together.

One step...and down the hole we fall.

Yeah I've been getting ideas for the Lestrange brothers for a while now....They're so very wide-open for interpretation, since so little is said about them in canon. But then they have to 'fit.'

I take it you're feeling better?

writing though pain. I can't take not submitting, so I'm posting a sad-angst Severus everyone else has already written.

I liked your entry to the contest, though! Considering you said it was last minute, it still turned out really well. It was an interesting spin on the prompt, using these two brothers. I hardly see/have read any fic on Rabastan and Rodolphus. You did a good job catching snippets of their life.

Thanks...I like it as is, but there are things I would change (as there are with just about everything I write).

Rabastan and Rodolphus instantly popped up in my mind when I read the prompt, and I think I'll explore them more in the future. I think there are a lot of opportunities/ideas there.
