The final chapter

[caeria]

I've always enjoyed posting the snippets.  I know that I take forever between chapters so it's a way of giving you guys something to think about while I plod my slow way through the writing

I am excited and sad at the same time that this wonderful journey you've taken us on will be coming to an end, and yet eeeeee!!! SO exciting!

I wouldn't mind perspective shots from either Vector and her Arithmancy map reacting to the battle, or Healer Alvarez doing what needs to be done. And you would do the House Elves a thousand times better than JKR did in her final battle (i mean, these powerful magical beings attacking with pots and pans? Really?). But I know I'm going to love whatever you give us, and I'm so excited to think that in the future when I revisit the story, I can read it from start to finish.

*squishes you* Best of luck with the final scenes!!

It will be exciting and kind of sad to finally finish this beast.

I think I will have to add Healer Alvarez. As a Healer, she'll bring a very different perspective to the battle.

I was thinking the same thing, especially about Vector.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEES

Has it really been 8 years?

[caeria]

Yes. I have no idea what I'll do with myself after it's done. It's like a companion that has been with me for years will suddenly be gone.

I can't believe we are almost at the end! I am somehow happy and sad at the same time. But it won't be the very last chapter, right? I clearly remember you mentioning a twenty-years-later epilogue in one of your author's notes. *grins*
I've been a fan of Lil' Sev since his first appearance so I'm really curious to find out what's gonna happen to him.
I'd love to read something from Healer Alvarez and Miranda POV. I absolutely adore them both.
And I know she isn't a key character in your story, but I really loved your Minerva in the first chapters and her interaction with Severus, so it would be lovely to read something from her POV too.
Anyway, I know it's going to be perfect, I'm very very excited about the final battle!

I don't really consider the epilogue as a chapter since it will be much shorter. But yes, there will be a 20 years later epilogue.

Vector might be harder, but I think Healer Alverez would make an excellent addition. As a Healer she would bring a different perspective on the battle.

As I mentioned, Lil' Sev's fate was determined long ago. It always makes me laugh just to think about it.

I might not be able to get Minerva in there, but you are correct. She was in the beginning chapters. She deserves to be mentioned in the ending.

Agnes or her brother? Rink? Colin Creevey is a good voice to use if you want to include a bunch of characters, since Colin will be snapping photos of many. But Rink's fangirls will be disappointed to not see him again, and Agnes has her fangirls too.

[caeria]

Rink has his own staring role to play but I don't think we'll see his POV. Anges and Colin might be a good choice though to show how this is affecting the younger students.

Plus Agnes is a very sweet Slytherin!

... that line about Little Sev made me imagine something very cracky. Just as Neville is about to die at the hands of the villainous Bellatrix Lestrange, his magical doll flies out of his pocket and muppet-punches her in the face, causing her to stab herself with her own wand. The end.

(wonders if I've been getting enough sleep)

[caeria]

*snerk* While the idea of Bellatrix being muppet-punched by Lil Sev makes me laugh, I can honestly say that's not what's going to happen. Although I can say that when I get around to writing the actual scene, this is going to be floating around in my head. :-)
