Description
Sequel to Intoxicating (original ending) Olive Good, American portraitist, is given the task to to paint the portraits of the 52 lives lost at The Battle of Hogwarts. It is tradition for witches and wizards of note to sit for portraits, so their legacy can be retained long after they've passed, hence why Hogwarts is covered in the frames of countless figures from wizarding history. But while each painting has its own unique personality true to their sitters' real lives, some are more textured than others. Since the people that are being painted can not be present for the painting process, Olive has come up with a process through meeting with all the families to learn as much as she can about them, to make the paintings as lively as they were when they were alive. This is where she meets a certain twin, who she helps grieve the loss of his brother and best friend. She gives him closure, and he gives her something she never expected, love. Post War Besides Olive and Maeve, all characters belong to JK Rowling,
