So, I just finished writing chapter 15 of Echoes! I know it took me far too long, and I’m sorry about that, but I finally mustered up the energy to do it. I can’t promise on how fast the next update will be as I’ve been dealing with...a lot in my personal life. But I’m happy to finally get this out to you!
For my very loyal readers and followers, here’s a sneak peak for the chapter I’ll be releasing in a few hours!
And she can’t help herself here, can’t stop the words from spilling out of her mouth. Granger and Weasley had been suffering a great deal without their best friend, even more so since Dumbledore swiftly silenced them from any contact with him at all.
“You’re not the only one struggling. You’re not the only one who’s been through horrible things - believe it or not, the world doesn’t revolve around you.”
He turns to her.
There’s red behind his eyes. She stares at it, at the remnants of Diggory hiding within him, and feels - not for the first time - disgust. How far could he fall, if not for the careful eyes of those around him? If not for the Weasleys and Granger; if not for Dumbledore.
W-woah..! It looks like we’ve officially hit 100 reviews for Echoes! A-and 300 followers too..?! I am...shocked...! Ahh, how to celebrate such a milestone..? Hmm, I’m busy writing the next chapter (currently at 1k words), so I‘ll have to prepare a special little something in between...
Now then, I’d just like to say-
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING..!!
The new chapter of Echoes will be up in the morning 🥰
Here, take this sneak peak before I conk out!
“You reek,” the ghost sneers, “of death.”
“Death?” Victoria repeats stupidly, not understanding, “What do you-”
“You’ve been marked,” the ghost tells her, voice a near hiss, “and it’s disgusting. Just being around you is like staring into the void itself. I’ve heard the rumors, but it’s not like experiencing it first hand.”
“The rumors?” Victoria asks, feeling ghost-eyes run over every inch of her skin and she feels - exposed.
Yes, it's happening. Echoes is being updated at long last - you can expect the chapter to be up within a few hours if FF stops giving me the run-around.
As always, here's a sneak peak for my very loyal readers-
Dumbledore stares down at her for a long, silent moment before he sighs deeply. His brow is creased and he crosses his hands over his knees, peering over his glasses and down his crooked nose. His gaze was near piercing and she doesn’t flinch, but it’s a near thing.
“Miss Dodger,” he asks her, tone neutral in a way that has her wandering eyes darting to him immediately, “do you know why I insisted you be sent to 12 Grimmauld Place instead of simply letting the ministry take care of the matter, as would be standard protocol?”
She shakes her head, frowning, and feels a prickle of unease begin to tickle its way up her spine and settle deep in her chest.
