For the first time he could see, truly see, that what had happened to him was entirely Lestrange's doing...
Ever wondered what happens when Draco Malfoy quits his job? In this episode of 'The Forbidden Forest', Rho and James dive into the turmoil and triumphs of Draco's resignation from the Ministry of Magic. It’s a mix of glory and terror as Draco steps away from his role, leading to a tense meeting with Auror Weasley and others at the Lestrange trial. But that's just the beginning.
Rho and James take you on a rollercoaster ride through the intricacies of fandom and tagging, throwing in a few laughs about their fake honeymoon. They don’t shy away from the tough stuff either, tackling the romanticization of non-consensual relationships and the portrayal of same-sex couples in fan fiction. This episode isn’t just about fictional drama; it also touches on real-life themes like recovery and sobriety, offering a unique blend of fantasy and reality.
You'll hear about Harry's eerie drawing of the Thestrals and Draco’s run-in with Hestia Jones, all while Rho and James navigate the challenges of writing explicit content. They also shed light on the often-overlooked struggles of transformative fiction writers. If you're into deep, unfiltered conversations that blend magical worlds with gritty life issues, this episode is a must-listen.
