RATING/WARNING(S): G
WIP?/WORD COUNT: complete | 1978
MAIN CHARACTERS: Ginny Weasley, Luna Lovegood
FIC SUMMARY:
Luna wore her self on her sleeve, sure enough, all she was and wanted to be on display for a scornful world, but she kept her heart close. Luna described others' kindnesses, over a loud speaker or in a whisper, with a tone of mild surprise.
Ginny, who had a dark she never asked for in her chest and basilisk venom in her invisible scars, appreciated that Luna didn’t expect anything from her, except an ear, sometimes, a hand, an adventure.
Three boys called Luna "Loony" in the Great Hall and flicked peas at her. Ginny rose to a modest height and a towering rage and felt like a worthy lioness for the first time since the Chamber.
RECCER'S NOTES:
This is the sequel to the rec I posted yesterday, and I think this is my favourite of the two. There are a few little American/Brit inconsistencies but not enough to truly jolt me out of the story. The parallels to Shakespeare are wonderfully done. The building of Ginny's friendship with Luna is crafted carefully, and the building of her character even more so. I don't think you need to have read the first fic to understand this one at all, but they sit so wonderfully together I would recommend it.
