Thank you so much, Remixer! :D It is so fantastic to see this fic expanded! And to see the most moving parts of the entire thing written out so wonderfully like this… Wow.

I love the way you've expended on the spells and effects on the Time Turner, the one-time only use was something I hadn't thought of.

But the best part is filling in that last year, everything Hermione would go through and all the people around her. I loved seeing her finally get together with Ron, and the way their relationship went was so wonderful and just so very, very them! ♥ And then, later, when she puts him off, it was so sad, so powerful.

I think my absolute favorite part is the encounter with Voldemort before the last day, the last time. I did NOT see that comig at all, and was holding my breath through the entire thing. But her dream was really chilling too, especially this image:

But when Hermione gently placed a hand to the girl's hair to smooth down a few wayward strands, her fingers came away covered in giant clumps of brown hair.

*shivers* That's just so dreamlike and terrifying. The dream went so far to showing us her inner conflicts and fears.

Very powerful fic - brilliant Remix! My apologies for the re-post.

Oooh, I really liked your original. A nice, short gut-punch of gen-fic, and so Hermione-like to go about ordering her affairs because it had to be faced. And I thought it fit the prompt perfectly. (figured I might as well comment here on it!)
