I'm so glad you like it! :) I was worried that it was going to be too dark when I first went to post, and it might have been. Originally I only had Bellatrix's point of view, but I tacked on Lily's at the last minute. I've always liked the idea of her being a very formidable witch.

If you have an account on AO3, please let me know. :) I'll be posting this over there once the Wishlist event ends, and I would love to post it as a gift to you.
