Oh, I am so happy I finally got time to read this. There are so many beautiful and moving moments. This: somehow my own loneliness that first day had convinced me that the very moral fiber of the wizarding world was formed through character-strengthening exercises like that one. really resonated. It seemed to Minerva and so, I don't know, familiar as a Scottish presbyterian?? Little touches like the contents of Myrtles bag and Rolanda's goggles (love) make this so rich. I adore that Rolanda's heroes are women who fly, and the touch that flying on a broom -- such an archetypal bit of witch-dom -- doesn't take magic, is brilliant. The evacutations, the relationships, the changes for Minerva, are all really well done. This read so quickly and each section is interesting and important. Well, well done!

This line is stunning and poignant: I can tell you that now: it's a truth so fundamental I would risk my life to defend it, and I have, more than once. But it's not what we're taught by our parents or our friends, or even our well-intentioned professors, and it's not an easy lesson to learn.

Part 5, espcially the end of it, is brilliant. The contrast of the unawareness of adolescent joy and the thrill some of the adolescents take in destruction was so, so poignant.

Only till you make a name for yourself. This line is lovely beyond description. The title and the consistent spelling of "Air Heart" is really touching and beautiful as well.
