Review:Jchrissy says:
I have never read a story that focuses on what someone from the 'bad' side felt like after it all ended.

We see so often people dealing with the loss of Tonks, Remus, Fred.. any of our good guys that went way before their time. Not that I don't like that, but this was just such a fresh perspective on the kind of pain *everyone* involved suffered. Not just the good side.

The way she went through her feelings, how it was things in the room that jogged her own memories, even simple things like where they all would be standing, really brought a lot of feelings to this piece. She wasn't just going through the order, thinking of them one by one, but she was really feeling the loss of them and letting their memories intertwine.

Something about the time she spent dwelling on Evan... how young he was and what part of his life he should have been at, that felt really, really emotional to me. Maybe because we need that reminder that, just because they were fighting the wrong side of the war, doesn't mean they weren't just children all swept up into it the same way the Marauders had been.

The line -- lines drawn in blood (or something similar to that) was such an amazing use of description to bring us into this terrible dark place where old, dusty ballrooms conjure up heartbreaking memories of those who are dead or imprisoned.

I really liked how Narcissa recognized that Lucius wouldn't understand. How she understood she was lucky that he wasn't in Azkaban, but it wasn't enough because she was still missing so much.

The section about crying for both Regulus and Sirius the day she found out Regulus was gone, gah. That's a relationship I've always wanted to read about explored more (her, Regulus, Sirius, Bellatrix, and Andromeda all as children, to be precise) -- and my head canon has Narcissa loving Sirius, at least during on point of their lives, so I was really happy that you didn't neglect him.

You use so many beautiful pieces of imagery. The ongoing description of the ballroom, this one time glorious place full of laughter slowly transforming into this cold, almost tomb for the dead (at least in her mind) was done really beautifully.

This was a gorgeous and touching piece, thanks so much for the amazing swap, m'dear ♥
