Hi, DrT,
Nice start.
I don't know the reference in the title (beyond knowing that 'yen' and 'dollars' exist); I hope I don't have to.
Re: another review. It IS a big change when you have kids and your friends don't (and vice versa), but I would think that they'd either be over it by 15 mo, OR they'd blame prophesy (or maybe Harry) for taking their friends away under fidelius for so long.
When did they hide, anyway? 15mo is a long time.
That was a great scene showcasing Hermione's quick brain.
DD is a controlling jerk has been done a lot... you seem to have him set up as redeemable. I'd enjoy a more nuanced approach to him.
Anyhow, looking forward to more.
Cheers-
