Summary
Unironic angsty Gilderat fic written by a sick sick man gifted with the vision of the implications of Gilderat during the war...Begins just after "The Prank" and all the way through the first war. The seeds of Peter's decent into the bubbling cowardly Deatheater he becomes are there from the beginning, but he is absolutely not evil at 15.(And I am shooting for canon compliance but I am not perfect so it'll probably be off on a few things. You're welcome to call me on it if that makes you feel better but I probably won't change it.)
