    Summary

    This is the continuation of my story: The Inner Light - HP Style. The first chapter is a summary of the previous story, so if the tags speak to you, you should be able to read it without too much confusion.

    It is an exploration of the aftermath of the war, and how everyone deals with it. The main character is Severus Snape, who survived the war, but there will be chapters about other characters too. I needed some OCs to tell the story I wanted to tell because I didn't want to entirely rewrite canon characters to fit.

    I address the changing world, try to find solutions to the most blatant problems the wizarding world has without making it too easy, and fokus on character developement and growth.

    Alas, I felt writing a simple slice of life type story was boring as heck, so since I love torturing my characters, there are vicious attacks on Severus Snape, and they have to find out who it is. It turns out, there's more to it than the eye can see, and someone might lead a dark cabal to derail any changes in the wizarding world.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Incredible worldbuilding and follow through, plotting, details, foreshadowing, pacing, characters so much more satisfying in their development and their relationships and their arcs. Deserves far more recognition, and also rereading. So much good stuff here, hard to do it justice.... yes, definitely a reread.

    Also a rare treasure that took me more than a few days to get through, despite my usual slapdash pace with such things. Had to slow down and savor. Too good. Philosophically, ethically, aesthetically, just thoroughly satisfying. Eerily so, but damn, it's good. Just what I did not know I wanted when I first searched for "Snape Redemption" tag. Hector Flint, Moody, just so many unexpected clever twists and turns that in retrospect are perfect. A real cathedral of suspense and narrative, beautifully created as if it always existed. Exactly the kind of inventive creative and satisfying mind that improves on what was lacking in the original. Much needed, imo. Thank you for this.

    Has moments that reminded me of the cartoon Monsters Inc, in the most satisfying and rather sophisticated way, haha. <3

    Summary

    Sanji’s brothers are two things. Emotionless monsters, and unable to resist their father’s commands.

    After Judge Vinsmoke breaks his promise to leave Sanji alone, he finds himself trapped once more in Germa’s labs, subjected to cruel experiments. When the crew finds him, he still has his emotions intact.

    But not his freedom.

    All Zoro wants is to talk about Whole Cake Island and their will-they-won’t-they relationship. All Sanji wants is to get out of this whole situation with his sanity. Will the crew be able to figure out what’s wrong with Sanji before it kills him… or before he kills them?
