That was a fun read here, and loved how things turned out there with Hermione who was able to get her man, the one that she sure seemed to be leaning towards until the sixth book for some idiotic reason that JKR has never really explained imo. Glad to see a truly Harmonian pairing, and loved the ideas of the polyjuice coming back to spook them later on.

Heya Wonderbee! Thanks. I had a lot of fun writing it. I've always suspected Hermione was a sneaky little wench, and more than willing to break a few rules. She just hid it well.
Alas, Rowling intended the carrot and Harry to get together all along. Unfortunately it would have been more believable if she'd taken the time to develop Ginny properly, instead of springing Ginny-Sue on us.
Instead, she gave us: !SUPER-GINNY! Defender of innocents everywhere! Smarter than Hermione! Prettier than Cho! Loyal-er than Ron! Better at Quidditch, than Harry! It's SUPER-GINNY! (Action figures sold separately!) While I do write other partners for Harry, , I rarely involve Ginny, unless I can support it, plot-wise.
Polyjuice is such a fun plot device! It's hard to avoid (ab)using it! I've got two or maybe three Polyjuice involved stories posted and a few more int he works.
Glad you enjoyued it. A bit more polishing and I'll have a Harry/Tonks story posted. Mebbee next week.
