"This clamour is life and death, it is pain and grief, it is triumph and acceptation, and it is anger and love."
I'm the one who keeps repeating myself...
McGonagall's pov on the aftermat of the battle is overwhelm with feelings...
Another wonderful fic! :)

Oh gosh, I'm happy you enjoyed reading this, even if I know it was on the angsty side. The battle was such a terrible and moving moment, and my heart was going to the teachers. McGonagall is a beautiful character, underused in fanfiction, and I wanted to write this for me. Thank you for making my day a bit brighter. :)

I just discovered your LJ and this made me cry. I have been reading HP fanfic for quite a while and very, very rarely cry, in fact I had only cried once before I read this. You had tears streaming down my face by "Lavender's, dear God." Thank you for this incredible piece.
