   Summary

   The Battle of Hogwarts fucked up a lot of people, most finding the worst ways to cope due to their pain being masked by the press. Kitrina saw many people she cared for take to habits she never wished upon, even her enemies. If only she had been able to escape the dungeons sooner that night, she could have been an extra wand, an extra hand, an extra body. Maybe she could have taken Fred's place, wishful thinking as it was. Yet, if she took his place, then she would not be facing George right now, drunk off his ass across the way from the bar. If she had taken Fred's place, this drunken night would not have led to a problem she had to keep to herself.

   George needed something to cling to, something to stop him from drowning. If it so happened to be a Pureblood witch that he couldn't really stand, but at least didn't hate, then so be it. Finding solace for just one night, even if he couldn't remember it; even if he was glad when he woke up to no memory and an empty bed, he at least had a moment of peace. Now, however, drink isn't helping, and two years later, sober and calming down from his depression, he runs into a problem that he never thought he'd face ever.
