I can see it. Yes, I can see Hugo as an Unspeakable. It seems like him :)
Also, your descriptions are so well written! I love your explanation of the clock room, I feel like I'm surrounded by them. I also feel very bad for Hugo having to take them apart and put them back together and am also slightly awed at his ability to do this...so many parts!
I think that Carrow is funny in a way, and I'm not sure if you've meant us to like him despite himself, but I sort of do. Like when you include details like one of three things that he said to Hugo in the first weeks was "Get away from me." Highly likable.
Also your description of when the timetables shatter and where Hugo is and what happens is all very intriguing and is an interesting take on the conglomeration of time. I like your take on the Department itself, too, because I always imagined that people there actually knew what they were doing but it would make sense in the slightly whimsical HP world that they actually have no idea--and I think that makes this story a whole lot more interesting, too, since they're still trying to figure out exactly what they're doing...while they're doing it.
The only thing that I could say was a bit confusing was at the beginning when Hugo was talking about when he met Broadmoor...I couldn't tell if that was the interview or if it was the morning of his first day on the job, but I think the latter because there wasn't any mention of him coming home and having a panic attack or anything.
Overall I think this was well written and I like the subtle humor you've laced throughout it--it's admittedly very different from you humorous blogs but I see how this is more fitting to your story :P

Author's Response: I'll admit, I honestly just picked Hugo at random. I didn't want to use James II again, or Albus for that matter, so I went with Hugo. I'm glad you think it fits him, though! I figured one of the Weasleys would go for a job like that. It just so happened to be Hugo.
And thank you! I still consider description one of my weaker points, so I put some extra effort into this and, well, glad you like it. Taking apart and putting the clocks back together ended up working out really well (thanks to Tinny for that!), but even so... poor Hugo. XD
It's great if you like Carrow! He's my favorite character to write; I couldn't get rid of him just because I destroyed reality. That was too boring. He's likable in some weird sort of way. I can't disagree.
Breaking the timeturners and time itself was my favorite part to write! Happy to hear you found that interesting. The Department, too; yeah, like you said, people are trying to figure out what exactly they're doing while they're doing it, and I think that makes it a lot more interesting of a place than if they had, say, an instruction manual.
The beginning conversation with Broadmoor was actually something I wrote, thinking they'd walk through the Department of Mysteries or something, and then nothing like that ever happened. Basically, it should be deleted... I just kind of like it. XD
Thank you for taking the time to review! I'm glad you liked it, and hopefully I'll have another blog up soon for you to enjoy, too!
