Oooh! So nice! I feel really stupid here but, what was the green part? "The sickly green colour, so familiar, was forever the cause of his loneliness. He thought it fitting that it was responsible for his moments of comfort as well." I fear it must be someting fairly obvious that I'm forgetting, but I simply can't remember. I mean, I understand the Avada Kedavra part, but what was the comforing part? I thought it was her eyes, but she has brown eyes, and then... I just got confused. Anyway, it was really well done! ^^

Thanks for the review!
To answer your question: At midnight he thinks of Ginny, who brings him comfort, and the watch is used to make sure he thinks of her at exactly the same time every night (when he also knows she's thinking of him). The watch's neon green glow then reminds him of Ginny. And brings him comfort.
Hope that helps!
Thanks again.

Oh, it wasn't supposed to be terribly sad. I hope it was at least a little hopeful, as well.
Thanks for the review! |

Nice minific! This line captures Ginny so well: “I locked away my dolls,” she’d whispered, “but I never locked away my heart.” She's worth waiting for. He'll come back a man to his woman, and that's all that matters, isn't it?
Thanks!

| This is just such beautiful language! The flow, the wording, everything, it's almost jsut as much poetry as anything else. Wonderful, but then again, I have learned to expect quality from you. |

Very powerful little story - I love it. Harry's introspection is so poignant, yet simple and heartfelt.
My favourite two parts are the first two sentences:
Loneliness had been a constant in his life. Growing up, loneliness had been the only thing that had never abandoned him.
and the last three:
One day, he would come back to her a man, and they would seek the kind of companionship that would make the lonely disappear. One day, he’d find a new constant. It was worth waiting for.
Simply beautiful.
