Aaah, I'm so thrilled! I don't know which delights me more - that you read the books or that you read After the End? I suppose both, since you had to read the books to get to AtE. I need to schedule a re-read of that fic. It's probably one of my favorites in any fandom EVER. I don't remember the chapter, but the part where Hermione dreams of the Great Hall being destroyed and the students being told to go left or right and "Neville turns left", I lose it every. damn. time.

HP is just such a fantastic world to explore. Goblet of Fire remains my favorite book of the series, but they're all so excellent. I'm glad you've "seen the light", so to speak. Oh, and your 'ship preferences? Fantastic.
