Summary: Gellert is nothing like the horror that was Voldemort; Grindelwald is a symptom of the same social disease, but his is a slow and subtle kind of terror. He’s a spider at the centre of a web of futures, plucking at strings to see how the flies begin to panic in their binds. Harry thinks that he’s beautiful.
