...HOLY MIND FUCK AT THE END O_O

But wow, this was VERY different, which I've grown to appreciate in HP fics a lot more recently. And the bits b/w Lily and James were cute :)

lol, mind fuck was kind of the plan. ;)

Thank you! I tried to make this a bit more plotty and not as fluffy as my previous ones, so I'm glad it's appreciated! =)

Holy Mother of God! I haven't read Harry Potter 'fic in such a long time but you lured me in and... my God. The way you *constructed* this story so that it would all lead to this inevitable outcome, where Lily has to kill her own son without knowing it because she thought it was the only thing left for her to do--

Goddamn, I think I'm still in a state of shock right now. This was just so beautifully written and there's something so inevitable about this tragedy, something that makes it seem as though it could never have *not* happened, despite it all. Beautiful, just beautiful, and terrible as well in the best way possible.

Eee! Your comment just really made my day! :) I'm honestly still slightly in shock from how amazing it is!!

When I posted this, I was actually SO worried that there were plot holes (lol, writing this during college wasn't the best idea I ever had) and that the concept was too abstract, but I'm so glad that you liked it!! =D
