The review generator won't let me leave a one-word review, and so I have to add all this excess verbiage to the review so that you can see this one word.
Beautiful.

I've come to dote, so put on your sunglasses to hide the blushing, because you deserve some high praise for this story.
First of all, you know I love your imagery. It's so amazing. You include the smallest of details that stick out so vividly and really make the story live. That's why I love your writing. It moves. And the beauty so often lies in contrast - as you put quite right in this piece.
Not only was this completely sad and angsty, but wonderfully true and beautiful. I love their urgency at the end. LOVE. IT.
Ron and Harry, grown up but not apart. Weathered and broken down a bit. They're fantastic. I love how you control them and let see the change.
Lines:
"But I know--as you do--that if I move so much as a breath away, you’ll lose your footing."
"There ought to be a dent in the air, a black hole somewhere in the space around us to mark the absence that you feel inside as solidly as you feel me next to you. If only this summery, dreadfully wholesome afternoon acknowledged your loss, perhaps then you wouldn’t feel so removed from everything around you."
(I've never had anyone really close to me die, but I imagine it to feel exactly like this. Like I should see change everywhere else. So beautiful.)
"God, look how dirty my hands are!"
And like everyone else, "Together we’re whole. We’re okay. You and I."
I don't know what to say, Ama. It's amazing.

Thanks B *hugs*  , detailed reviews are always welcome, so I'll shut up about the purplish colour I've gone.
Makes me really glad when people appreciate the details because, I, er, tend to run away with them and often it's an effort just to leave the right amount and no excess. (miconic is priceless in this regard  )
As for Ron, to be blasphemous, I almost liked him better than H and Hr in this one; I liked writing him torn and broken and wanted to hug him. *gulps* And that's a reaction usually reserved for Harry.
Thanks again, I'll talk to you soon!

It's amazing how much detail you've managed to put into this story - the ongoing war, allusions to the state of Ron's family, and the H/Hr was ... as it should be. And did my eyes deceive me or was Aunt Petunia there, too?
Great to have you back with us! Please write more stories
Cheers,

God I love the way you write, it's like poetry!! I need more stories from you, your one of the best HHR authers I've read!!! I love the contact and the need you see between Harry and Hermione. |
Author Feedback:
Hey,
Ahhh, the contact and the need between HHr: that's pure joy to write, so thanks for mentioning that!
And thanks so much for the lovely words
There's more on the way, but coming along slowly. Life gets in the way, it's annoying

Hey, Musca!
Welcome back! Reading this I felt like I'm reunited with the Harry and Hermione you got from Voiceless, and I love it, as I *so* do missed them in canon.
I hate to use the word poignant because I'm pretty sure you'll receive them a lot in this story.  As I have said before, your prose is wonderful (I love every word you chuck out); the imagery are profoundly moving and had an arousing effect to the reader. You draw the reader's attention by engaging his senses. I felt like I was there, being Harry and comforting Hermione. Second person writing has a certain 'magic' and you used it very well.
Thank you so much for the inspiration; maybe I could write again and find the love between Harry and Hermione that was so deeply hidden in their souls.

Hey NEL!!!
Can you tell? I'm SO glad to see you  *hugs Nel*
And thanks as always for the absolutely lovely words, I really do appreciate them. And thanks for mentioning the Harry POV worked cos this is the first time I've used it that way in HP, so I was worried if it was going to work. I tend to write in a way that Harry most cetainly *doesn't* speak, so I made him a older to make his observations justified
Oh gosh, I'm flattered to hear this has been an inspiration, anything to get fellow pumpkineers back on board! As far as I'm concerned, canon or no canon, accidental or intended, it is HHr all the way! I've never come across a couple more beautiful, so I really don't care if JKR intended that or not.  )
And good work on 'Harmonians Strike Back'

Oh, how sad.
I hope, but I have a feeling you have, haven't gone through such a horrible pain to be able to write it.
Poignant. |

Hey,

Oh, Ama. That was beautiful. Thank you. I'm so glad you're still here, still writing.
And what an amazing writer you are. I love the POV of this piece because I had to reread to understand who was telling us the story, and, then, who Harry was talking to.
I love your characterizations, your Ron and Harry seem so real and tangible, even so many years in the future. Harry blaming himself, even when he has no reason to do so was especially poignant.
But your last bit, that scene between Harry and Hermione? That was so *them*. Their connection, the support they give each other. You tap into it so well.
[Together we’re whole. We’re okay. You and I.]
Love it. Love it. Love it.

Hey Frances!
Glad I'm still here? Well I can say the same for you. HHr fandom wouldn't quite be the same if you'd left *shudders*
So glad you liked the story, this has been in the writing for a long time. Going very slow these days, chugging along
I said this elsewhere, but I almost liked Ron better than H and Hr here, he was soooo hug-worthy. I wanted to hug him and tell him it'll be okay
As for the connection between HHr, well that's why I'm here, isn't it? They're such an unbelievable couple, that it's insignificant whether they're canon or not. *swoons, overcome with HHr love*
Anyway, thanks for the kind words, and I hear you've updated The Sequel *wheee*: I'm gonna get there soon

That was so sad. It was excellent, but so, so sad... |
Author Feedback:
 Thanks |

Oh, so sad  And this Hermione is much more poignant and heartbreaking after the butchering of her that occurred in this past book. I was so glad to see another story by you, and hope you'll post a post-HBP one, if you can manage to. Keep up the great work! |
Author Feedback:
Hey,
Good to 'see' you again  Thanks so much as always for taking the time, I really do appreciate it. As for a post-HBP story, we....ll, there's one of *sorts* coming along, so we'll see  Moving at snail's pace these days.
Thanks again

love it - had to wonder who you were talking about at first, but I'm guessing that was the aim of the story. You got the characters just right. good work. |
Author Feedback:
Thank you!

That was beautiful and so sad. I couldn't figure out who it was until the end and that was what made it more heartwrenching. Great job! |
Author Feedback: Hey
Thanks! I didn't mean the speaker to be so mysterious, but I guess since he's all grown up and all  it's hard to tell.
Thanks again

I love fics that has some insight Hermione's home life. We don't get any of that in Canon. We know all about every Weasley, but nothing about the Grangers. Part of me is glad that she doesn't put it in canon, because it means better writers have the freedom to fill in the gaps. (Yes, I'm very bitter, can you tell?)
About your A/N: I'm so glad you're "still here". Can I just say that? You're one of the great writers at PK, it would have sucked if you left.
also, I hope danielerin comes back too. |
Author Feedback:
Yeah, you're right. The bigger the gaps, the better it is for us. This is one reason I'm a kind of over being down about HHr in canon--it's better this way, nothing's final, so all the more space for us.
And thank you so much for the kind words  I couldn't have left if I tried--HHr you know, they stick fast 
Thanks again
