You're finally posting the next part of the story! \o/

I'm sort of sad that you're diverging from canon (because you're the ultimate genius at canon compliance) but also not really because I love Kevin and Charlie and want them to live. I'm so torn...

... And it's on AO3. Does that mean you're moving everything there now?

I'm just moving the fic to AO3 - I'm getting less and less interaction on LJ, and I have anonymous commenting turned on on AO3, so anyone that does want to comment can do so there even without an account. It just takes a lot of time reformating to post on LJ as well, and as far as I can tell, people prefer reading on AO3 anyway.

I was also sad to diverge from canon and I agonized over the decision a LOT, but the fact of the matter was that without diverging from canon, I really no longer had any entry points for the HP characters - and also, I was pretty pissed about Kevin and Charlie (especially Charlie) dying and I wanted to fix it. But yeah, I had a LOT of fun blending the canons and keeping things accurate for the first 3 novels worth of the demented'verse - so, I was also really torn.

BUT, diverging DOES give me a way to wrap up this story in a way that is hopefully in keeping with the tone of the demented'verse (which has HP-style optimistic endings, as opposed to Supernatural's more tragedy-leanings.)
