Okay, here are more words (maybe not eloquent comments, but I try): First off, I've got to say that you do a marvelous job of balancing dialogue and description. It's all melded together so smoothly and the pacing is spot-on.
I have to admit that I'm not 100 percent sure who Shaw is going to be using to power the spell. I thought it might be Scorpius but I wasn't sure whether we were supposed to definitely conclude that or if the identity of the energy is yet to be revealed. Sorry if I'm being a bit dense.
I am so very excited for the upcoming confrontation. Erik and Charles had better kick Shaw's evil, creepy, biased butt! And Erik needs to get his wand back. And Shaw should possibly die somehow. Or it'd be okay if he were just imprisoned somewhere unpleasant for the rest of his life, too. And then Erik and Charles need to tumble into bed together without any interruptions. And Erik needs to keep working hard to ditch his prejudice towards muggles and muggleborns. Perhaps in part from finding out that Shaw killed his parents (I don't know if he really did here, but it's the sort of thing he'd do). And then make out more with Charles!
