Wow. That was odd and fascinating and kind of wonderful. Tender and sad and perfectly right. Still, I can't help but hope that the three of them find each other again, somehow, some way. I'm sure they're still tied together...

This is magnificently beautiful, and I thank you for sharing it with me. And the provocation intended with the lackluster ending succeeded in the extreme. Hope to see more in this vein, and may the muses be ever present.

Grrr... I simply cannot stand stories that end like that. DOn't get me wrong, this is very poetic prose. A lot of feeling and imagery that really emote a lot. But the "it's like nothing ever happened" ending always feels like I'm getting the bird. Maybe it's a closure thing, I dunno. But I definitely dislike those "it was all a dream" endings. Otherwise, the stories great.

Thanks. Glad you like it. As for the ending, well, I meant it to be annoying. No closure for the end of the world. So I guess I'm glad that worked on you, too. :)
Cheers.

Wow this story is all kinds of crazy good. It was definitely an interesting twist. I liked it. Now I'm off to read trinity, while I wait for a new update from the take away devil.
I liked this very much. I didn't think 'eccentric' at all. Just...different, and the story works. As for coherency, well, who said Magic was coherent in the first place? It just is, like this story just Is. Besides, I followed the storyline pretty well. Any questions I had at some point were clarified and answered in a later section. Yet another great job writing.

Every time I read this I sob. Every single time, never fails. So in lieu of leaving incoherent whimperings here, I will instead post one of my favourite bits. Or at least the bit where I went: Oh, THAT'S my favourite bit and replaced it for the other.
"“Kill me,” one pair of green eyes orders with all the calm in the world. Hurt me, bleed me, make me break, is what echoes across her mind and she’s not sure if she doesn’t mean it. She’s tired of scraped knees. Luna turns away, starting to doodle with her wand on the floor.
“Are you sure?” Harry asks."
Those lines are the epitome of this for me, so very sad and beautiful and just brilliantly written.
