I loved several parts of this story, well all of it but these lines in particular.
"'There are a lot of things I love about Ron, but one of the best things is how he hugs me. He doesn't grab, he envelops. It's the most wonderful feeling in the world to be tucked up against him and held so lovingly."
I love that line. It's so sweet.
"Fleur clucks over him and says to all of us, "'e is lucky– my son – since love runs strong in dis family."
"
That is the BEST line to describe the Weasley's. |

'Ginny and Harry's happiness on their wedding day is a mere shadow of this moment.' - Now that is so true, only a parent can know that feeling. The most wonderful feeling that a man or woman can feel, is when they become a parent.

| I'm actually almost teary. I started off reading this fic stressed because of an assignment that's due tomorrow (hence, my immediate search for a comfort fix with some St Margarets fanfic!). And now I'm almost teary! It's a beautiful fic, it really is. I think you've perfectly captured JKR's point in the books, that love is so important, and you've done it in a very subtle way, building up the layers and ending with a revelation for Hermione that's emotional without being cloyingly sweet. Is this a missing moment from your New Zealand Chronicles, or will the wedding be included from Ginny's POV? |

You did a good job of "masking" your style with the first person, but only St. M has Harry become a search and rescue medi-wizard (the perfect job for him, by the way)!
I love how you write about the Weasleys! So, if there are two Biliuses, which one was Ron named after? I loved Charlie's line about dragons. And I really liked that Penelope wove the fabric for the dresses--what a lovely detail! She and Gabriella DuSult really must meet up sometime...
Now I'm even more excited for Ron the Builder! |
| Thursday 13th July 2006 18:15 | That Which Is Constant (Author Response) |
Ah, but I so cleverly avoided "New Zealand"! LOL. This is why the computer glitch happened - I was too obvious to begin with.
My friend Julu is writing a Percy/Penelope fic. in which Penelope does all these cool weaving charms (that's one of the associations with Penelope's name - that of a weaver). So I thought I'd "steal" it.
I like the idea of Ron being named after the Bilius married to Great Aunt Muriel - so the Weasley side, I would think.
I'm glad you're looking forward to Ron the Builder - it's coming right along! |

Nice, very nice. You're one of the few writers who've really helped me understand Hermione better. Oh, I like her very much, but since I'm not really very much like her (except for having always been hypervigilant about my schoolwork), I often have a difficult time relating to her. But I felt like I could really empathize with and understand her here.
I loved the description of how Ron hugs. It was very sweet, and I can completely believe that our Ron really does hug exactly like that!
My favorite thing, though, was that Molly and Fleur were still grating on each other's nerves and being a bit snippy. It seems like most authors write them as being very sweet and adoring with each other after the scene in the hospital wing in HBP, but I think your scenario is much more likely. After all, Molly and Fleur are both still proud, stubborn, and -- most significantly -- not very tactful. |

I'm so glad you read this, since I know R/Hr isn't your favorite thing. I've never really written Hermione's PoV before and I quite liked it. She is an emotional girl, isn't she? Very different from Ginny, but just as fierce in her own way.
LOL - Molly and Fleur will never have an easy relationship, but I'm sure little Phillipe will bring them together and over the years. Who knows - they may mellow - or not! LOL

What a brilliant choice to tell this from Hermione's point of view. I could almost hear the discussion when her parents insisted on the gap year. I loved her putting off discussing communication skills with Ron. Kissing or talking . . . that girl finally has her priorities right.
I knew it before – with a knowledge like Baby Philippe – but now I'm starting to understand… like a grown up. Epiphany runs strong in all of your stories.

| I can't see Harry as a Healer either - a hospital routine would never work for him. I can see him as a paramedic doing search and rescue, however. The medi-wizards in GoF seemed to have that role.

THis was brilliant. Perhaps it wasn't dramatic, or perhaps it showed drama in a more real light (Hermione certainly was experiencing a type of emotional drama, don't you think?) But it was beautiful, and needed after what's going to be a horrible ending (whether Harry wins or not, the ending will be horrible.)

What a night!
I love this series--there's something compelling about this post-war group slowly putting their lives back together. And Hermione's confusion--the desire not to be defined by her relationship, but slowly discovering that her more primal desire is in fact slowly taking control of her life, even when she ignores or fights it. |

I'm so glad you are seeing all the puzzle pieces I have out there. LOL. Now tell me how to put them together . . .
It's been an interesting time period to play in.
Hermione is really a fascinating PoV character - I loved seeing the Weasleys through her eyes. They satisfy her in a way she doesn't quite understand yet - as you say. Harry is easy since he doesn't have a family - but Hermione does. It would be so easy to get sucked in the cozy world of the Weasleys. And no independent woman of a certain age wants to see where her vulnerabilities and dependencies lie . . . But that's part of growing up, too. No wonder this is taking me forever to write! |

How beautiful. It's a real shame that it had to be removed from the challenge, because it's a perfect fic. But I wasn't expecting anything less the moment I saw you'd written it It was really emotive and it kept me enthralled all through it. I loved the part where Charlie says "Dragons just hatch out of their eggs." That had me laughing out loud, just like when Fred says "Phil's a brilliant name". I can just imagine the look on Fleur's face!

“That’s –”
“Be nice Ginny –” George warns.
“Or you’ll be marrying the prince of your dreams tomorrow."
The last line seems to be not quite right. |

I probably should have punctuated it differently - since Fred begins the punch line:
"Or you'll be marrying the prince of your dreams tomorrow - "
And George finishes it:
"You know the blonde one with horns?" George pulls Harry into a headlock and ruffles his hair.
Is that better?

This was very powerful. It was moving in parts, and I actually snorted aloud with laughter at others, so well done! It's a credit to the story that I loved it as much as I did, when usually I detest teen wedding!h/g fics - so well done!

| I'm glad you liked this! It was a departure for me - what with the first person, present tense point of view and seeing the Weasleys through Hermione's eyes. So I'm glad my little experiment worked! Thanks for reading! |

| Wow - that was nice. I love how you told everything from Hermione's viewpoint and even how you made her sort of an outsider to what was going on. Very well done. Just one thing - Harry really needs to play professional Quidditch for a while... Poor kid needs to have a little fun while he still can. |

| Erm - Harry is marrying Ginny so I think he'll have fun. I think Harry should play Quidditch - but I don't know if he would enjoy the scrutiny of the fans. I really wonder what job JKR will have lined up for him at the end of book seven. |

You know, when I got your review via e-mail, I thought - wow - he's really good - he confidently guessed who wrote this. Now I realize that you are good - but not *that* good. LOL. I hope the first person present tense wasn't too annoying. I have never tried that one before. (I was trying to 'mask' my style) Oh well.
Thanks for reading. FYI - Ron the Builder is coming right along. My vacation was a good break and now the words are flowing again! |
