[Sorry, updates are on hold until July. Let's meet again for Harry's 38th birthday. See the latest chapter for details... Lie flat and let the punches come, OTZ]
Claire Ward isn't a Mary Sue. When the plot goes off the rails, she doesn't have a System to give her a golden finger. All she has is:
A thinking pose.jpg + a snarky inner voice.gif
In other words, she tries hard to come up with a solution and thinks it through carefully. If all else fails, she can only snark!
As she copes with all the major and minor plotlines that have gone off track or appeared out of nowhere, she keeps an eye on Cedric, who seems to be wearing a secret identity.
He has an exceptionally convincing disguise, but it nearly slips several times, making her clutch her own bargain-bin secret identity even tighter. But when the utterly derailed plot finally pushes her to the brink, he tosses away his disguise without hesitation, draws her gently into his arms, and softly comforts her.
Cedric Diggory isn't a Tom Sue. Though he's even more handsome than he was in his previous life, and just as gentlemanly as ever, the original story's cannon-fodder fate is reaching out to claim him, leaving no room for him to be a Sue.
Before that happens, watching the girl in the bargain-bin secret identity move around the protagonist becomes his new pastime.
Whenever he does, he rests easy, stroking his own supposedly flawless disguise. Then one day, it gets a hole in it too.
But he doesn't notice, because his attention has been drawn away by the familiar blue-and-white school uniform beneath her bargain-bin secret identity.
※ They discard their disguises and are honest with each other (?), then join forces to play the role of two fools who are better together, rescuing the plot from disaster.
I wrote this story because, after reading quite a few transmigration fanfics, I felt that while single-handedly turning the tide in the whirlpool of a plot is cool, it's also exhausting and takes a lot of brainpower. Maybe having someone by your side would make it warmer. And so this novel came to be.
A calm, thoughtful girl with a rich inner life × a composed, gentle British gentleman
