This was really interesting.

I loved Harry's casual wizard speak ("Obliviated", etc.), and its contrast with some of Dean's Muggle speak (like "hoover"). And this line in particular of his seemed so absolutely perfect:
"There's a place." Harry moved in front of him and waited until Dudley looked at him before continuing with, "It's got the best ice cream ever. Flavours you can't even imagine."

I like Dean's art show. I thought it was touching to see his sketches and hear his reasoning.

I really like how British this is in parts. And I really liked Dudley's revelation to Arabella. Nicely done.

I love the little moments in this like this:
he didn't want to be cursed for being rude
Or when Dudley asks if the food at the restaurant will give him a swollen tongue or a tail and Harry says "not tonight."

Some nice turn of phrase, including:
- Insults and names that belonged to his dad
- that had been too tight before he stopped drinking and started gardening.
- Some days, he hardly remembered what it had felt like to hurt people, to hurt Harry. He didn't think it was safe to forget though.

I'm a little weirded out that all the events seemed so canonically possible. Well done.
