None are so blind as those that fear to see what is before them. It seems that Harry and Hermione need more kicks in the pants before they get things worked out.

Okay - I hate to say it [and sometimes feel like I don't have the right. I mean, after all, its your story] but will in the name of constructive criticism and all that

how could you dismiss the whole "you mindwiped me into thinking you didn't exist"? I can't imagine they just didn't care.

Chem Prof replied:

First, I skipped that because it had nothing to do with this story. But also, we know absolutely nothing about the details of Hermione's obliviation of her parents in the book. (The movie is AU on this point, as it shows her obliviating them in their home in Britain and leaving them there.)

I find it inconceivable that she could get them to Australia without their cooperation (I don't believe she would use an Unforgivable - the Imperius - on them). So I assume that whatever arrangements she made with them were done at least to some extent with their agreement and cooperation.

And next ... The eruption of Mt. Weasley!
Nicely done. Yes, the reunion has been done, redone and overdone and let's stay focused. I did like the balance in this chapter, as a little more of the surrounding universe popped in. Harry reacting to the bikini was a lovely scene, strongly underlining the extremely close relationship between them. The whole teenish awkwardness just isn't there. The actual reality of their situation seems to be dawning on them. It's just that they're looking for the hormonal storm of infatuation, thinking that's what love is. I blame Cartland. Anyway, I'm staying tuned, and may Robert Lind in Kramfors bless your keyboard.
