Woah! Wow! *stares* Wow, I am trying to wrap my head around all the things I loved about this!
This was SO removed from the Wizarding world, and yet had so many gems of canon in it. I was grinning at the scenario right from the off when we had Bill being scarred by Fenrir :D I am so so impressed with just how AU you were able to push this and still be able to retain the distinct characters from the book. I mean you didn't even help yourself by keeping the canon names, and it still worked!
Thank you so much for this, it is beyond anything that I had been expecting. You have so thoroughly spoilt my love of AU that pushes to the edges of great original writing that I think I am going to have to make a cup of tea and then read it all over again :D
