This is so well done. As others have already said, it's such a poignant thing for you to write his sexuality as interwined with his growing awareness of Dark magic and, IDK, the things nice boys can't have. The opening and closing images of all the accolades and honours that should be bestowed on him fading away... *shivers* It's such a painful way to read about a gay man's first time, and yet it is also beautifully written. I totally see this as plausible for Albus, too. Amazing job, MA. :)
