hermione granger's father

"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope." (From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence) This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Hermione had faced down bloody Voldemort when she was eighteen. She could deal with...this. Where this equals Draco Malfoy, a critically important diplomatic mission, and only one bed.
