So... I've been writing. :)

I think it's actually a reaction to NOT writing for Drawn & Quartered, which is a play series that ITP does for which I usually write. Instead, I'm training a new director on the process. So, I have all these pent up plot bunnies (and you know how they get when you don't let them run around enough

Skarabeios - Thanks so much for stopping by lj to comment on this! (This story is on Ashwinder, too, btw, so you don't have to make the extra trip.)

I really like your idea about Hermione's inability to create negativity when they've finally - finally - gotten rid of the worst of it. I also think that it's interesting that in canon, we never did know what Hermione wanted to do with her life. Everyone agrees she's brilliant, and there are some career suggestions made, but she never DECIDES anything. It all takes a backburner to the present conflicts. I think when the war ended, she didn't know what to do with herself and THAT is how she wound up with Ron and a career in Magical Law Enforcement. While either *could* have made her happy (I say *could* in the loosest possible sense here), I think she only chose them because they seemed expected of her... and as good of ideas as anything else. I really believe she was lost. So even if those choices might have been good ones, they can't have been right for her, because they weren't really choices at all... merely letting the aftermath of the war carry her on its shoulders to all the attendant lifestyles that went along with it.

Thanks so much - as always - for your thoughtful comments.
