Oh, beautiful. And poor Andromeda, hoping that its one of the little ones who turned their blood to mud, because it will scare them to realize that Alice and Ted could have died.

And Adromeda is someone who you want around in a crisis, keeping going until everything's over, and then collapsing, which is the best way to do things.

I love this fic!

Thank you :) Poor Andromeda, indeed. I don't think the war has quite taken off yet, so she's still hoping that people can be civilised.

I've always imagined that Andromeda is very cool-headed. It fits with my characterisation of her.

Thanks for the comment :)

Oh, that's so sinister and horrible. Poor Ted =(

A wonderfully vivid scene, though, and the last line really made me grin.

Oh no Ted!
Good thing Andromeda knows what she's doing. Smart girl.
What a nasty thing to do to someone though.
Ah but that last line. *squee*

My Andromeda's a bright girl, thankfully. And really, this was bound to turn nasty eventually.

^_^

Thanks for the comment :)

Oh, last line was beautiful. I adore the banter between the two and how Andromeda's so defensive. Very, very wonderful.

“Tonks,” she said, her shock turning cold and hard. “You're bleeding mud.”

I actually got chills when I read that. So. Creepy. Poor Ted and Andromeda.
