I love the imagery in this. The trail of such shiny words like shimmering, glints, sparkle, glittering and the how they are tied to love, death, dread and memory.

I love the taste going back and forth from sweet to bitter as the story unfolds.

I love the missing teacup and how the strands of memory hold no substance. Also the way you make Albus seem really sexy and Minerva softer without losing her edge. And how deep and mature their love is. Beloved and lovely such great words to describe a lover and timely too.

I only have one small bit of concrit, there's a lil typo where Albus tells Minerva that she'd be lovely in white, you have "you'd lovely in white" and I think it should be "you'd be lovely in white." But that is all.

Your story is so poetic and moving. Thank you for writing it.

Gah! I miss words all the time. I think my mind moves too fast sometimes. Thank you, I'll edit the post and fix that.

And thank you for such a lovely review--really, I'm honored you would take the time to say such nice things about the story. It's very kind of you.

Great description here. You make established Minerva/Albus feel so natural.
