I've not given up. I took a bit of a break because I have to admit this chapter, long and brimming with fail as it is, nearly defeated me. But it hasn't!
Last time in the Jaidenverse, Hermione became a Death Eater. Literally. I am not exaggerating in the slightest, and nor is my icon. ( What more can the author do? )
I couldn't resist pressing on. I probably wouldn't have stopped at the end of Chapter 3 had I realised which chapter this was. It's not very long anyway. ( OOC!Hermione, as you've never seen her before )
