Rectober: A Casual Death by Vaysh (podficced by Mab)

[mab]

Now that Vaysh has had her birthday, I can share the podfic I made for her. It's a wonderful fic based on the last moments of Charity Burbage's life and is canon compliant while still giving Charity a backstory and voice that makes her death even more tragic.

Please take the time to read the fic or listen to the podfic if you can handle this sort of darkness. It's not much worse than the darkness that is already in Deathly Hallows canon.

Why I loved it: Where do I start? This fic is AMAZING. It develops Charity's character in her last moments, and really adds power to the punch canon delivers in this scene. I can't even … gah … Just trust me, all right? If you can handle darkfic, you can handle this. It's not much darker than the actual book, but looking at it from another POV is a must for lovers of the books. You'll see what I'm talking about.
