It was so much fun reading about a) a friendship b) an interhouse friendship c) an interhouse friendship with rare characters! I loved your Daphne in particular, especially the way she covered for the other girls in the beginning.

Thank you!

Daphne's fun to write - I wrote a fic with her years ago and decided to pick her back up.

This was amazing! I loved their relationships in this and the way they worked together!! Unlikely friendships that work so well is a favourite of mine and I loved this!

Thank you! Glad you liked it! Sorry I'm so late in responding...

WAOW I loved this so, so much. I love how you worked in canon details throughout it. I love how this fit perfectly with my own headcanons for Padma and Daphne. And just recently I was thinking to myself that I'd like to read fics featuring Susan Bones!

I really liked this line especially:
I don't think she ever wanted to kill people, she just wanted to bully people.

Thank you so much for sharing this!

Sorry my response is so late! Thanks for reading.

I don't think she ever wanted to kill people, she just wanted to bully people.

I think that's a very important distinction to make, too, with these young characters. Teenagers tend to follow the leader, and don't always think about what their actions imply or what affect they might have on people until they learn the hard way. I kind of wish we'd seen more of it in canon, but I guess that's why we have interhouse_fest!

Absolutely. I love when canon-compliant fics bring that extra depth. You did a really great job there!

Totally agree with the person who highlighted this bit I don't think she ever wanted to kill people, she just wanted to bully people. I really liked how you pt into focus not only lesser known characters but there was also a background of other characters (like that bit about Millicent)that really serve to put the story in Hogwarts.

Awesome job at weaving in those big canon moments and showing us how these girls faced them.

Awh I love friendship fics, and this was a great one! I love that they became so close despite their differences <3
