Really moving piece, I can't say how, but I feel a bit changed from reading it.
I also really like the fact that you had Ron propose, but you didn't tell us Hermione's answer. That way everyone can imagine what they want to.

Thank you What...
I'm happy you were moved. Like Shocking discovery, this was meant to grab the throat.
As this was written before that awful pile of...typing known as HBP, Ron was still redeemable.
