Review for Triwizard Redux

Triwizard Redux

(#) brad 2006-10-20

Good grief, and I thought "Harry's Second Chance" was paced fast! In one page we've got time travelling Harry explaining everything to Hermione and offering her a promise ring all before (or at) lunch!

Is this a one-shot or will there be further chapters? This is entitled as 'Chapter 1', but maybe it's rather 'vignette #1' of these several you mention you're working on?

I enjoyed the first couple of pages the best, actually ... again I liked your authorial explanation of what Hermione could get out of a relationship with Harry, her hopes in that direction. Plus I thought your extraploation of what Ron would do, devoid of Harry, was well reasoned and perfectly in character (with Ron as he was then). He'd rallied Harry against Hermione in PoA in the broom incident; it stands perfectly to reason that he would have no problems in again selecting her as a target.

Some nice romantic images in this ... Hermione physically supporting Harry to Dumbledore's office (his fever was due to the merge with the time traveller, I guess?); their first hug in the Room of Requirement; and the idea of Harry's "lady" flying her knight's banner.

Thanks for the continuing entertainment!

Author's response

This is 12 chapters and 2 epilogues, and yes, it is fast, as it was an afterthought that wouldn't go away. Glad you liked Ron's characterization.
