the portrait saw it in his eyes, the look of haunting my grandfather called it. the look of emotion a man gets when he takes a lot of lives under adrenaline, and when he comes down from it, it hits him suddenly.

*thoughts on this fic after reading up to chapter 25*

I like the focus on figuring out how magic works. The one thing I dislike is that the MC's assumptions are almost always correct. For example, the whole “light life” realization comes just from casting Lumos. It's not impressive when he jumps to conclusions and they always turn out to be right. It looks like he’s just LARPing as a user of the scientific method, but instead, he just Is Always Right.

Also, I really don’t like how much attention he gets just for being academically gifted. The glazing is really out of control, as they say. At this rate, I feel like I'm going to read an interlude from the fucking aliens’ perspective where they plan to invade Earth just to shake the MC’s hand.

Last point, the one that made me want to post my thoughts, is the fucking "hard times - hard men" quote. In short, it's such a false, reductionist, regressive, “kids these days”-ass saying that having it parroted by the main character made me think a lot less of him. It's a pseudo-intellectual statement with horoscope-level accuracy, often used by rich old people to shit on the younger generation.

It's similar to reading stuff like "modern art is ugly and made by degenerates and is a sign of the fall of 'Western civilization.'" At first glance, who cares about the MC's views on art, right? And then you look at the original source of this statement and go, "oh, hello Nazi Germany, didn’t expect to see you here."

I still like the fic, and I'll still be reading it.

"My name is Gilderoy Lockhart, and my heart belongs to _ME_." - Classic. So it does, Gilderoy, so it does...

I don’t get why someone would destroy the entire US wizarding population. Given they broke the ststute with the defenders, is it the start of some muggle wizarding purge, aided by colaborators?

Wow, this is absolutely incredible. The amount of detail and creativity here really stands out. I can tell you’ve put a lot of thought into everything from the character design and expressions to the overall composition and mood . It’s not just visually striking but also tells a story, which is something I really admire.

The way you’ve captured emotion, movement, and personality in your work is honestly next-level. It’s always inspiring to see creators who are so passionate about what they do. That passion really shows in every line and color choice. Whether this is part of a bigger project or just a standalone idea, it truly deserves more attention. Keep creating and sharing more . This kind of work adds so much to the creative community.
