hd_holidays gave to me THE BEST THING EVER!!!
Oh, all right, probably not quite as good for the world as penicillin and flushing loos, but it is on the same list as them! And hush whoever is saying that being compared to a flushing loo is not a compliment, go and live on a pit-toiletted commune for a few weeks and you will soon change your mind!
It's four panels of the most beautiful, clever, delicious and narrative art you can imagine. All so beautifully wrought that you can imagine it has been lifted straight from the pages of limited edition illustrated book, £300 per numbered copy. But it's free, and on LJ, and for me!
The artist is someone I actually know, and she is fabulously talented, though I think I am not meant to mention her name for the three of you who will not know it. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shu_shu_sleeps , I will message you with links to more of her stuff if you like). So you know that there will be a giggle in there, and nothing to scare the horses. But what she does, playing off my incredibly helpful prompts of ... er, Aurors are cool ..., is construct a four-panel story that tells volumes about its two heroes, the people around them, and the possibilities they find for themselves and each other. She once told me that she thinks art might be a word that is pitched too high for what she does. It's the one time I believe her words to have been pure and utter nonsense.
Here's the link again, it's called Thaw, and it is utterly, wholly, beautiful. And in a few weeks I will tell you all the story of why she is so very tricksy!

And I have to say 'Quite nearly!'
Your reading is a really good one, and captures so much of what is in the work. It all makes perfect sense, especially for panel three!
