This is excellent. I love snapshot/vignette stories like this, when each tightly-written section reveals more, adds more layers and insights. I like that some of her pureblood hauteur remains; of course it would.

It's impossible to choose a favorite section, since each adds its own thread to the tapestry, but I enjoyed the first meeting with Ted (poor Andromeda, she just can't help letting some of that pureblood oozing out /g/), and the glimpses of Narcissa, Bella, and Dora are well-done and IC. And Druella...wow, so beautfully chilling and so deftly-characterized in so few workds.

Fantastic writing - so poignant and well-observed, and with such a small amount of words. You've created a very convincing portrait not only of Andromeda, but of the Black family and Ted and Harry as well.

This was wonderful. I really love the way you portray Andromeda's different strengths. Love all her relationships too, especially the bit with Narcissa, but the last section made me cry. Oh, poor orphaned children! :(
