After writing that last post it reminded me of something. I COMPLETELY FORGOT SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT TO BARTY’S TIMELINE/LEGACY/WHATEVER.

THE NOTE. The note Henriette wrote to Barty and stuffed inside the music box she left him when Gilderoy finally went back to check on him after that month.

OH. OH MY GAWD.

Barty still doesn’t know about his other children. HE NEVER READ IT. I remember I was going to have him read it as soon as he returned home, but it was decided that he would put the music box away into the TARDIS, because he didn’t want Rose to find it and ask about Henriette, because it was hard enough just trying to explain even part of what he felt to Gilderoy.

………and now I don’t even know if I want to remedy that. I think he’s too broken to actually handle finding out that he technically lost another family.

Ugh. I’m dead over here. I can’t believe I forgot that.
