Well, the basic backstory is off to a rousing start. I like the way Harry is cautiously exploring his new abilities rather than just jumping into using them. I'm certain Hermione will be able to help him, there; though I suspect that after seeing her like that, he may have another "problem" he'd kinda like her "helping hand" with. I do hope t his does turn out to be a HHr fic, I rather like the pair of them.
Finally, you're doing a good job of weaving in the necessary background without being overall obvious or blatant about it.
I'm definitely looking forward to more, including, I hope, a developing and more intimate relationship 'tween Harry and Hermione.

- Well at just 14 and almost 15 they're a little young yet. Though I'm sure that by now Harry has discovered his 'Special Purpose'...
- I do intend this to be a Harry/Hermione ship...
