The Hermione/Harry/Ron Relationship Explanation (in the context of my story)
In Behind those Emerald Eyes, I am trying to follow canon because duh, everybody loves it including me =) Because Hermione and Harry were best friends in the past (and went through MANY things that brought them closer to together as friends), I tried to show how much pain any person would go through at the loss of such a person in their life. Sorry if it seemed too romantic. I did try to show how Harry had feelings for Ginny (with leaving her a rose when he left), and how Hermione was interesting in exploring a relationship with Ron (its mentioned somewhere in the beginning of my story). With the scene of Hermione on the lake, I’d like to say that Harry was the last link to her memories of both Ron and Harry (as they were always a trio of friends), and so she was mourning the loss of her previous life. Because Harry did not return for Hermione (NOT because he loves her romantically, just because they are best friends and depend on each other in so many ways), Hermione feels that she knows he is dead, and so she gets rid of the last thing tying her to the painful truth and memories – the necklace. Anyway, there’s my lengthy and probably confusing explanation, but I hope you aren’t too critical =)
READ THIS!!!!!!!!: i forgot to mention it earlier, but i'm transferring schools in a week so i'm busy with all of that and much more. the update will be in a couple of months i think, but i can promise you a "juicy" chapter for sure. it will be pretty amazing, haha ;D thanks for understanding!
I love cheese. Well, I guess I could debate that with myself, seeing as I only like three kinds of cheese, and there are like a billion different cheeses in the world. Goat cheese is so totally gross though, and seeing as I come from Norway, where everybody loves the thin brown slices, I guess you could say I digress from the norm.
But enough about cheese. Let’s talk about my little “bio” here. I come from a land down under. Well, it’s no Australia, but it is beneath the North Pole. And quite cold, to be frank about it. Come to think of it, you can be frank about anything. I sit behind a Frank in math class.
But we are still straying from point. I love tangents. There are a huge part of my life. I feel that random conversation is the only way a person can ever truly get to know another person, be you talking about cheese or the pros and cons of carpet cleaner.
But yet again, I find myself not informing you, the curious reader thinking about what kind of crazy person would honestly write such a story, about who exactly that very person is. Or are you getting a pretty good picture? I love to confuse people, it’s one of those raw talents everybody is born with.
But my raw talent and strange joy in writing a Harry Potter fan fic is not mad, I can ensure you. Some people take up pottery, I took up a story. Hopefully one which all of you will enjoy.
So here’s to you, the fantabulous readers, and to me, the, I quote, “brilliant” author, so that we may join in joyous connection though writing.
Leave me reviews!! ; D
PS- If you are confused, feel free to email me. I love getting "fan mail" =)

I love how it's from Hedwig's point of view, and your last chapter was my favorite. Very hilarious word usage =D
did you get your title from a song by across between?
Author's Response: Uh...no. It\'s from a Dylan Thomas poem, Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night.
It was full moon when the Dark Lord sealed a part of his soul within a magical amulet, and then broke it in half. One half was left to the faithful werewolves to guard. The other half was tossed into the impenetrable depths of time where no one but him could get it. When the first half has been found, the Order of the Phoenix selects Hermione Granger to go back into the past to search for the missing piece. What is waiting for her is a brutal task that will test her beyond her limits, and an undying love that extends beyond the boundaries of time.

No werewolves were harmed in the making of this story.
Update (9 May): Chapter 17, Burning, is up! Enjoy!
Absolutely brilliant. I think this has got to be my favorite fanfic of all time =) It's just so great how Hermione has found love but can't "have" the love, as least she thinks she can't, because it's her teacher!! Haha I love it =)
you really nailed the complexity of rowling's characters. great job. no wonder you were featured =)
Keep it up!
oooooooooh finally! and it was awesome =)
Author's Response: Thank you, dear. : )
love the flirty banter!!! such a wonderfully written piece of fiction =) BRAVO!! can't wait until the next update =)
very cute =) I love your writing!
Once again, beautifully written. You should definately comsider writing as a career.
Author's Response: Thank you, and I\'ll probably scribble no matter what else I do! =)
So I understand that Lupin is supposed to me a "muggle" and so is Hermione, so when she speaks of his "condition" in life, is she simply talking about him being poor and such? It is still so wondefully written nd poetic though. I'm so jealous haha =)
Author's Response: I\'m hoping to clarify/elaborate that when I touch up this story; he\'s supposed to be \"tainted\" somehow, I just haven\'t figured out what the proper parallel is yet. (Tell me if you have any ideas! hehe.) =D
You have the most wonderful vocabulary of any author I have ever read on here. This is by far the best written story I have ever read, and I hope to read more of your stories soon! Congratulations!
Author's Response: Thanks so much; I\'m really humbled. I had a lot of help on this one from my friend the dictionary; I didn\'t want to bungle!
So I forgot to mention two things and I also just read through some of your other reviews haha =)
Your writing style almost reminds me of modern-day Shakespearean. I absolutely adore Shakespeare, so it's a huge compliment!
One of the other reviews I read talked about your use of narrative versus dialogue, and suggested you use less narrative and write more conversation. I disagree. I feel that narrative is definately your strong point and that if you change the dialogue more into a narrative of what the said (even though it is very much like this already) it would make your writing even stronger.
Oh -- and I play the flute for a well-known symphony, so anything relating to music is definately an eye-catcher for me =)
Author's Response: *bowled over* Shakespeare is the KING. =D Gosh, I\'d be happy with one millionth of his talent!!
You know, that\'s a really great suggestion and I\'ve been thinking along those lines... I really want to elaborate some things in this story and I think that so as not to disrupt the flow of what I\'ve already written, it might be a good idea to just incorporate some narrative dialogue. Thanks for the feedback!
That is so awesome! You know, I\'ve said this before, but I think the best thing about this story, for me, has been having reviews from musicians! You all are the best. =)
OH! And i forgot something AGAIN! It's amazing how forgetful I can be when I love a piece of fiction =)
If it's not to bold, would you mind telling us all your real name, so that when you eventually do get something published, (and believe me, you WILL) we can go out and buy it? Don't worry, I'm not some crazy psycho stalker person haha.
Author's Response: I have to say a big Thank-you again for all of these lovely reviews; they\'ve been a lot of fun!!
And that\'s one of the nicest, most encouraging responses anyone\'s ever left. I\'m Ana-Maria - I\'m a bit leery of putting my full name - not because of you, because the internet\'s so huge - but I\'ll tell you what? If I ever get published, I\'ll track down every person like you and thank you personally for helping me in part on my way there. =D
Whe I read this I seriously got lost in it. This could definately be a published work because you write so fluently and artistically and know exactly how to express a moment. LOVE IT.
Author's Response: Well thank you! I don\'t quite know what else to say. =D I\'m just glad you think it has merit as a piece of fiction!
so this is kind of unbelievable, but funny all the same. good job.
So I don't want to simply repeat what everybody else is saying. But... ditto =)
I'm always interested in how people get the ideas for their stories. What was your inspiration? For my story, it just kind of came to me while I was thinking about masks....I don't even remember why I was doing that lol. But what was your inspiration?
This was beautful.
I really really enjoyed this! You were able to capture Draco's character perfectly and worked in his new feelings of sadness by having him admit they were strange! Awesome =)
Author's Response: Thank you! =]
haha it's a good thing i read this story before i wrote my second one. i was going to write about this very same thing!
great minds think alike =)
Author's Response: lol funny how things work like that.
