I love the way you made Terrence human. We already know a tiny bit about Alicia because she was in Harry's House and on the Quidditch team - so it was important to make us care about him and you did. The glimpses of how an arranged situation grew to become something more are wonderful. I appreciated how Alicia managed to bite her tongue when her friends criticized her choice. She's obviously more mature about this situation than they are.
The way Terrence kept growing in her estimation was well done - I could see why she decided not to break the agreement. Their 5 year-old son innocently parroting the bigoted beliefs of his paternal grandfather was such a slap in the face after all they'd fought for. I have complete faith in Terrence that nothing like this will ever occur again.
Thank you for a tale well told. I can believe in this couple.
