*sharp inhale* WHY DON'T THESE DRABBLES OF YOURS HAVE MORE FAVORITES/REVIEWS? This one really hit home. Gods... Imagine being pregnant with your loved one's child, but only finding out after they die! That's too tragic... Thank the gods for George! I hope they'll fall in love naturally and raise little Fred/Hope together :')

This is so good! It is completely the opposite of my own headcanon for George and Angelina, but I still loved it so much! In fact I quite possibly like it more than my own headcanon... I'd never even considered the idea that the baby could have been Fred's...
Great writing, I loved it!

Oh, sure, I'm fine after the fourth Fred-dies fic I've read today...
Angelina being pregnant with Fred's child isn't something I think I've ever seen, and while it should be wrong because George, I love it.
I've seen George as a Fred-replacement for Angelina (among other unsavory things) but I like this interpretation the best.
OH SURE, RUB IN BELLA'S DEATH, SHALL WE?
I like this a lot, especially your last line :)

RIP MY HEART OUT WORD BY WORD

I've never read a PoV from Angelina, in fact I have headcannons which aren't... well they're not exactly in her favour, shall we say. But this put such a different perspective in my eyes. I adore the idea that Fred & Roxanne, or indeed an older brother/sister, is Fred's baby.

This was raw, heartbreaking... Angelina's thoughts hit me so hard and the blend of memories and what was happening in the present, this was just perfect. You take such tragic and difficult subjects and write them so, so well I find it incredibly inspiring.

You're a queen Sophy and one of my favourite writers on this site.

This is beautifully written. I love the way you transitioned it from beginning to end because it was so fucking seamless that at first I didn't even realise what was happening. I love the characterisation here too, particularly of Angelina. She's not a character I read very often, but I absolutely adore her here. George is perf for me. Seriously. And I loved the little scene with Molly too because just all the feels. The ending is gorgeous, and I'm so glad you ended it on a hopeful note... literally.
No mistakes found, but dammit, all the feels felt. Gorgeous hun.

Goddamnit, Sophy. I knew this was gonna hurt when I read the summary, and it didn't stop it from hurting. Fuck. Why must you hurt me so?

I love that this is centered around Angelina and George. You just made their grief feel so real. I love how George doesn't try to comfort her with empty words when she rages, how he just hold her until it dies down and she breaks down.

The way that Angelina handles her pregnancy is interesting. I love how she doesn't really want to tell anyone about it. Then George finds out and then it spirals down into telling Molly. I also love how George is so invested in her pregnancy. I mean, he has a right to and shit, but typically men aren't interesting in a pregnancy unless it's their girl's pregnancy. It's just so beautiful that he's so excited about Angelina having Fred's baby.

Though, I gotta say, it is a little weird that Angelina is having Fred's baby when Angelina and George end up together. Or well, I think so. What are they going to explain to Fred II about his father?

But beautiful as always, Sophy.

Oh my, this was sad and hopeful, and oh I hope George and Angelina can be happy again. Really, truly happy. I do hope she has twins, Fred and Hope. They go so wonderful together in this situation. But goodness, my emotions are a mess now. aha. But this was so beautiful!

I loved the way you explored so deeply the emotional experience of Angelina as she came to the realisation that she was going to have the baby of her dead lover. Your portrayal of her struggles and the pain she experienced was wonderful and very effect in inducing emotions from the reader. Your take on the prompt was original and thought provoking.

The interaction between George and Angelina was wonderful, and it was lovely to see them grow and heal together. The piece flowed wonderfully and the prose was well written. The dialogue was perfect and added to the characteristics of the main characters.

The prompt was used perfectly, and again, I liked how you explored the deeper effects of pregnancy, as opposed to simply the superficial ones. The simplicity of the plot complemented well the intensity of the emotions. The plot was well thought out and felt complete. The use of flashbacks added to and enhanced the storyline.

This piece was very enjoyable to read, as you employed the use of pathos (to evoke an emotion reaction from the reader) as well as creating an engaging plot line. I did notice a few cases of confusing wording, but on the whole the SPaG was perfect.

Though the prompt was included in the A/N, the word count was exceeded. This was absolutely beautiful Sophy! It was emotional, and incredibly heartfelt. The ending was very fitting and added a layer of lightness to the story.

This was actually the cutest thing!

Oh my god. I'm sobbing and my heart has been broken and somehow healed and I honestly don't know how to review something like this.
This was so, so, so, so infinitely beautiful.
The beginning oh my goodness. I could feel Angelina's HATE and George's numbness inside and I was just... I can't.
["I wish it had been you" ... "I wish that too."] I started crying here. Because that's so heartbreaking; Angelina despising George for being the one who lived, and George loathing himself for the same reason.
["George looks stunned at first, but slowly, a smile unfurls on his lips."] Oh god. George being hopeful again because he's going to have a nephew. I just. He's perfect.
And I felt so bad for poor Angelina, because it's true- people are going to judge her for falling for the twin brother of the father of her child...
The ending was the most stunningly hopeful and gorgeous ending you could have possibly included, and it was just so beautiful.
This fic was gorgeously tragic, and deserves all the love in the world, as does George *hearts*
Beautiful. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful job.

sophy, i agree with laura 100% i'm sobbing currently and i don't know if it's from joy or pain? both, i guess?
the things i love in this is: everything
well, there's more, one sec
there was some spag, first:
[go go back back] - idk what happened here, but i don't think it's supposed to repeat
["I wish that too.] - there should be a comma before 'too' and another quotation mark
[Angeline wonders how that] - 'Angeline' should be 'Angelina'
so first off - the first part made me nUT
i love how you showed the different ways of the grieving so well and it was still super heartrending in both cases
hER BEING PREGNANT - i nearly tHREW MY PHONE ACROSS THE ROOM. this just rubs aLL the salt in the wound, because oF COURSE SHE HAS TO BE PREGNANT WITH FRED'S CHILD FFFFFF
molly weasley. just in general. i love her.
the parallels at the end, of fred&angelina and george&angelina hurts my heart, but in a good way? it makes me feel so sad because fRED but then there's the hope with them and it's so tragic and cute and i love this so much?
brilliant job, sophy

Oh my god. There are literal tears in my eyes AND I CAN'T EVEN TELL IF THEY'RE HAPPY TEARS OR SAD TEARS SO THANKS FOR THAT.

Sophy, this is so amazing. I have so many feelings right now that I'm going to attempt to express.

Okay, first of all, overall plot. I adore GeorgeAngelina but I fiercely believe that she loves George not just as a replacement for Fred and you expressed that point so incredibly well. She's not loving George as a replacement. She knows people will think that, but it's not what she feels. I love that so much.

I absolutely adore the tragedy of Angelina being pregnant when Fred dies. Her considering abortion and then realizing it's the only piece of Fred she has left absolutely KILLED me.

The running theme of Hope is absolutely incredible. The line "It looks an awful lot like hope" is just incredible.

As a heads up, in the third sentence you've written "to go go back back" but honestly I don't have any other criticisms because this is amazing. I love how well you've characterized everyone, but Molly especially. She's here so briefly, but she is still the human embodiment of warmth and welcome, as Molly Weasley should be.

Can I just go recommend this story to everyone ever? Because it deserves it.

this is beautiful, sophy, i love how you handled their characters

Why would you do this, Sophy? Why?
The ending is so lovely, so optimistic and (yes) hopeful that it ties up the grief of the first part and the fear of the second, and helps us move on from Fred's death.
I love how serious George is. Not only because it shows his grief but because he was always the quiet one and not having Fred there he doesn't need to keep up with the smiles. Serious George is great for this moment.
It's very original to have Fred II as George's nephew instead of his son; I don't know what other people think but I haven't read anything like that and I love it.
I also loved Molly here. She's everything a mother and future grandma should be. It's perfect that they don't talk and just hold each other. It must be hard for Molly but very happy at the same time.
Perfect story, Sophy. I love how you write and this is another example of how well you come up with stories to share. You're a great author
