Cut From the Sky
"I'm stuck in a time loop, reliving November 2nd. This is the 111th time I've lived through today."
Draco stilled. His moody eyes, the tension in his hands where he gripped onto his umbrella, the careful mask of blankness flickering over his face — everything about him was so difficult and so very dear to Harry.
"Ah," said Draco, "and?"

First of all let me just say: THIS IS THE MOST UNDERRATED FIC IVE EVER READ. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN AND I ADORE THIS FIC SM!!! The fic starts off with Harry working for the department of Mysteries and gets a task to spend 120 days in a time loop. Harry’s feelings towards his job and his fulfillment with his life is very well written and I loved the fact that you can tell very well how much he yearns to do something better for his life. For a fic being stuck in a loop of the same day over and over again, I never got bored. The writing had me clicking ‘next chapter’ over and over again and I easily finished more than half the fic in a single day. Even though I’m not the biggest fan of open endings I still adored the ending! Also let me tell you, the plot twist. THE PLOT TWIST. I was completely and utterly shocked and I doubt you’d ever see it coming. Obviously i would never give spoilers but if you’re thinking you might enjoy this fic. ADD IT TO YOUR TBR IMMEDIATELY!!! 100% recommend reading this, it’s totally worth it and it’s such a cute adventure! It is a happy ending so don’t worry but I promise you’re entire life will have changed after having read this fic.
P.S. Also i want to apologize for my awful writing in this review but I literally just finished the fic and I’m still trying to get over my ‘just finished a life changing story’ symptoms LMAO.

I wish I was good with words so I could do this story justice in this review, but all I have are feelings, a lot of feelings.
This is another work of art hidden within the world of Fanfiction, and I can only be glad I found it and thank my lucky stars.
It’s been a while after the war, 10 or 13 years, and Harry is not doing good. He hates his job, his house hates him, he lives his life as if going through the motions, just putting one foot in front of the other. Sent to many missions without explanation, without any sense, he just completes them and goes on.
His missions? Living the same day over and over, sometimes more than 100 times, only to forget them all but the one the ministry decides to keep. Still, he doesn’t ask questions.
We read about this latest mission, 152 days in France. You would think the story would be boring repeating the same day, but this author wrote it in a way that makes it so interesting, that you want to read what happens next. Then he finds Draco.
I was reading this and trying to think of a solution, of a way that Harry could keep all his days, to not forget Draco. Then I thought: would that be fair? Would it be fair for Harry to have the memory of all the things he did with/to Draco, all the secrets and stories they shared, when Draco would not?
Harry would know the sounds Draco makes in bed, but Draco wouldn’t know he shared that with him. Ever worse, the person Harry is after 152 days is not the Harry he trusted enough to share a bed with during those days.
It was incredible difficult and I felt like I lived with Harry all his days, suffering with the knowledge of what was to come.
The end was not what I expected. It was not bad, it brought the story to resolution, just unexpected.
Things to remember this fic by: Draco’s magic is gold, he has a trans roommate, and a cat. Draco is strong, proud and so so so soft.

Ok, jeg synes det største problemet med denne fanfiksjonen (OG JEG SKRIVER DENNE ANMELDELSEN SOM OM DET VAR EN EKTE BOK, JEG BRYR MEG IKKE) er den plot-twisten. Jeg synes dette er en plot-twist bare for å være en plot-twist. Det var virkelig ingen oppbygging til den, jeg synes den var rart plassert, jeg synes bokstavelig talt at den ikke ga mening i romanens kontekst, og jeg synes bokstavelig talt at den ikke spilte noen rolle fordi den ble rettet opp bokstavelig talt to sider senere. Hvordan kan du ha et kapittel som bokstavelig talt heter «stakes» og så skrive en plot-twist uten noen stakes? Jeg tror ærlig talt at det hadde vært en mer interessant historie hvis historien var fortalt fra «skurkens» perspektiv, en skurk som tilsynelatende var veldig endimensjonal, MERK DET!
Jeg tror problemet med plot-twisten var forklaringen. Du brukte bokstavelig talt mesteparten av kapitlet på å forklare hva som skjer, som en hellig eksposisjon. Jeg ble sjokkert da jeg leste det første gang, men så kom jeg til et punkt hvor jeg tenkte: Vent litt, jeg bryr meg ikke! Vent litt, jeg har nettopp skjønt at jeg ikke bryr meg, og du bare kaster inn en ny vri i handlingen, en tredje akt-brudd, om du vil, for å blåse opp historien. Noe jeg ikke mislikte.
Og etter alt det var skurken bare: «Ok, jobben min her er gjort! Du har et valg...» Det er som: ok, er forskningen din ferdig? Hvorfor gir du ham bokstavelig talt en gåte? Hvorfor gir du Harry – som du har torturert i bokstavelig talt årevis – et lite valg før du endelig lar ham gå fri? Jeg tror ikke hypotesen din er bevist i det hele tatt, for de husker fortsatt ikke hverandre hver gang du SLETTER MINNET DERES! Du sa at de er «tiltrukket av hverandre», ja, det er fordi – I DENNE HISTORIEN – de har vært forelsket siden barneskolen og de er freaks. Når Draco sier at arret hans «husker Harry og er tiltrukket av ham», betyr det ikke at «den magiske kjernen husker ham». Nei, det betyr bare at Draco er forelsket i ham og at han er en FREAK!
Jeg tar det tilbake, han er ikke en rar type, men Harry er kanskje det. Det er noen ting han gjorde i denne fanficen som fikk meg til å tenke «åååå, hvorfor gjorde du det?». Og han ba om unnskyldning for det!!!! Det skal han ha!!!! Og Draco kan tilgi ham!!!! Men det kan ikke jeg!! Jeg kan bære nag for oss begge.
Jeg synes dette var et flott konsept som ble veldig bra gjennomført, men som var litt lavmælt!!! Det ble litt klønete på slutten, men det ble bare litt vagtt gjenopprettet.
Men hvorfor vurderer du i det hele tatt å legge inn en dårlig plot-twist i fanfiksjonen? Du kan jo bare gi opp og avslutte den med at de finner hverandre igjen etter at Harry får tilbake hukommelsen. Dette er ikke Wattpad, mann. Dette er AO3!!!
Slik ville jeg PERSONLIG ha avsluttet det. Det er ingen hemmelig agenda fra Harrys arbeidsgivere, og når han skal si opp, kommer han og sjefen hans i krangel, og han får slettet alle minnene sine (i dette scenariet ble ideen om at kjærligheten var lagret i den magiske kjernen antydet hele tiden), og så får Harry bare en vag følelse av at han må dra til Frankrike, og så møter han Draco, og så sier de «hei» og «hei», og alle minnene deres kommer strømmende tilbake. BOOM. Jeg er den beste forfatteren noensinne, og jeg synes jeg burde få Pulitzerprisen.
Jeg likte deler av denne fanfiksjonen. Det var bare noen andre deler som gjorde meg urimelig sint.

time loop babyyyy!!! the concept of harry showing up at draco’s robes shop in france after not seeing each other for over a decade and that day ending in them on a romantic date under a willow tree and harry telling him about his traumatic childhood and draco hugging harry goodbye (or them making out and going home to draco’s after he accidentally drops his rain proof charm and they get poured on). i love staying up until the wee hours of the night reading a fic in the summer <3

4.5 ⭐️ This book was AMAZING everything about it was so beautifully written. The only reason I docked a star is because of the anger I felt while reading. But that’s what art does right?

This one hurts. Oh my god does it hurt. But goodness it’s soooooo good and so worth it and my only complaint is that there isn’t a sequels

what a beautiful story. so well written. characters were perfection. the details!! such a great experience. only reason it’s not higher is just personal preference. more of a cozy story and less intense action which is the style of the book and i knew that going into it. a little repetitive at times too, but that does not negate the beauty and meaning in this book. so great.

4.5 - That was beautiful honestly. I was devastated by the climax but loved the resolution. I just wish there was more of an epilogue because I want to see their life together.
