I've already read and reviewed on FFN, but I'm looking forward to reading this story again, here. I really like the way you start with a subtle divergence from canon and it builds on its one to dramatically diverge as events move along. It's too bad that their admissions to each other here didn't happen in canon, it would've made for a lot better last few books.

Hey, thanks for sticking with it on another site. The version here is a bit cleaner in the beginning. I edited chapter 1 and am working on doing the same for the next 15 or so too.
