Hi,
Your second chapter went in a different direction than I imagined that it would. Is your story going to focus on the two of them looking back as they reconnect, describing how they drifted apart, or move them along, describing what adult magicals do in the year 2002? Hermione seems young to have earned the degrees that I’ve envisioned for her, as does Harry. How did it happen? Where are they looking to go with their lives?
Your fanfiction has a very different slant on it than mine. In my case, I took a known point in the storyline, created a stated diversion point and carried the stories to what I considered to be a logical conclusion. You moved the timeline ahead four year, into an area that JKR barely described. As such, we don’t know what to expect, or what the recent past has been. Please tell us.
All the best,
Crow

Hi,
As you've found, the easiest stories to tell are those that have an aspect of your life embedded within them. I'm not certain how yours work. I start with an idea for a story, and then develop a detailed outline for the story, considering locations, characters needed and the like. From there, I assembled scenes.
The advantage of that method was that I was able to work on parts of different chapters at the same time, as ideas came. More importantly, at least for me, if I became stuck on a chapter, I could work on another section, until an idea for the first one came to me.
My son recently passed the bar. My best wishes go to you as you continue with your studies, and most importantly, thank you for your service.

This is a lovely story, friend. I don't normally read Harry/Hermione, but when I saw you were writing this, I had to give it a go. Thanks for putting it up.

I loved this story. I think it shows a slightly different side to their relationship and plus Ron' a ignorant dolt sometimes. HARMOINE!

I definitely think you should continue this story. You have a great start and an actual plot line, unlike most other stories on this site. Also, your writing is very deep and thoughtful.
