Hey, you posted this drabble in november and no one wrote a comment?! I wonder why, because I liked it a lot. I read a Dementor centered fic a few days ago (I don't remember who the author was), so I looked for another one and yours is really good. I have one question: who is the prisoner?
Oh, but several people commented when I posted it in my own journal, worry not. *g* But thanks so much for the feedback (technically, of course, it is not a drabble -- this is just because I don't write drabbles, on principle, *g*). I'm so glad you liked it! And I have read very, very few Dementor fics and the ones I remember where all crack. The prisoner, heh.
Now I thought of that prisoner as Lucius Malfoy but others who read it had other speculations, some of which were even more plausible than my own... so who knows?
I really, really enjoyed that. I love how you feel their desperation, without calling it desperation - because they don't feel despair, at least not consciously. I love this line: "Dementors cannot wonder but if they could, perhaps, perhaps -- perhaps they would wonder if the other suffered, too."
Came over here from hprarestpairest. Wonderful fic! I love creature fic, and dementor fic especially, and this is fascinating. I loved reading your take on the Dementors' nature, and the language you used was beautifully evocative. Lovely!
