   Bookmarker's Notes

   Just stumbled across this in the time travel tags and I really like it so far. I enjoy stories where Petunia gets redeemed. You quite deftly give an explanation for why she turned out so badly in canon (mainly the way Dumbledor isolated her, but also subtle family background factors and the stress of the immediate situation) and how a small push allows her to reframe the situation. Looking forward to more.
