This is brilliant. Your lovely slow reveals: who is it who is hiding (although we think we know, we can't be completely sure at first!), what is Luna talking about, so beautifully reeled out one tiny detail at a time. And your take on who Luna is. Only she would find beauty in bruises, and link them to the people she loves. So much depth to the characters. I enjoyed the moments I spent reading your little fiction, you created a wonderful space for your readers to linger!

Truly the year from hell, for every one.

This was amazing writing!  Of course, the subject matter was dark and unsettling, but the way you kept us in suspense over the identities of the characters at first really kept up the interest as we looked for clues.  Well done!

Beautifully done.  It took me a while to figure out what the colors were describing, but it's a perfect conversation between the two girls.

You made him so exquisitely vulnerable and Luna so insightful. Love to see more, but I suspect it would end in sadness.   Good job. :)

this was beatifully written

Even though I quessed it was Snape at the beginning, I enjoyed it very much.

Gah! This story is like so many exquisite little punches to the gut! Luna's bruises, Ginny's torn apart family, Snape's hopeless dream of love...

Amazing writing!
