"And in every photograph where there were once three smiling girls, the brunette has walked out, giving the illusion that there were only ever two, the only illusion in the Black family that comes close to reality"
Amazing quote. I love the way this is very 'this is what they're calling is'/'this is what it is', showing the way The world sees her family and the way Andromeda does.

What a captivating character sketch! I loved this line: "she feels like a marionette whose strings have been snipped, falling away from her controller, but instead of crumbling into a heap of helpless angles and joints, she feels like she’s flying."
You write beautiful prose. I applaud you.

Wow...that's really strong analogies and powerful words, just wow. I really liked the story. I found this in the Reviews Lounge C2, and I'm going to add it to my own oneshot C2.

Nice idea and very well written--I LOVED the ending in particular, the way Andromeda walked out of all the pictures. Reminds me of something Andromeda would do; she wasn't radically supportive of the Order or anything, but she instead was on middle ground, in "shades of gray". Not like Sirius, who openly defies the Blacks--he'd be more the type to stay in the pictures just to spite his family, if you know what I mean.

Lovely job!

wow, fantastic. andromeda is such a little-explored character, and i think this is a wonderful insight into the pressures of belonging to a world you don't believe in. beautifully written as always, and a fantastic characterisation, not only of Andromeda, but of narcissa too. it's difficult to believe those two are sisters, really.
the fact that andromeda leaves the photographs was a very lovely and very telling little touch. i really enjoyed this, well done!

Oh, that was just so heartbreaking that it was beautiful. I especially loved the bit about the photographs.

You're an enchanting writer, and you capture the essence of Andromeda so well.

I liked the ending. It was the best part, actually.
The part with Narcissa I thought was a bit out of place.

I know flames aren't exactly appreciated, but I did like your oneshot. I just had a lil' observation. :]
