This is the second time I've read this story, and I cried throughout it each time. So well written! 

Well there's some intriguing relationships there. Going to be interesting as well when the children get to Hogwarts as to what house they end up in. Like the name of the impending daughter. :)

Love it and a great way to end the story. Interesting as well to see two characters who were rather staid in the original series loosen up so much in public at their wedding. Great scene when Draco retrieved the garter.

Mind you it reminds me how sheltered a life I must live. Knew about the brides bouquet but never heard about the garter throwing before! Any chance I can get an invite to your wedding. ;)

Seriously is that the end or is there a postscript? Hope you have as much fun on the day and in Bora Bora.

Nice chapter and interesting insight into a possible interpretation of Snape's aloofness. It would fit in with someone seeking to repress their emotions because of the possible damage it might do and probably after the distress of Lily's death a desire not to feel strongly again.

Luna has also shown herself the woman with a lot of secrets and some useful knowledge, both in terms of the pictures and the knowledge of why Hermione resisted the attempts to to wipe her memories.

Glad Draco got off on killing Pansy, although how her family will react could be an issue.

Now we all need to see a picture of the groom in a white dress. ;)

Re: 36 & 37

Well, these two were a roller coaster ride, weren't they? ^_^

Well that was dramatic. I thought it would be a bit tougher getting Hermione's memories back. :)

What does rather surprise me is Pansy's power. Even if there were some traps in place to paralysis a multiple powerful mages and at the same time not only remove Hermione's memories but also put in the fake ones' that she's back with Ron.

Not surprised that Pansy ended up dead and a bit surprised after all she's been through in the war and this set of adventures that Hermione has guilt about playing a small and unintentional role in it. If she hadn't intervened Pansy would almost certainly still have died and personally I wouldn't blame Draco a jot in that case.

That seems rather an ominous theme for a wedding to me. Won't ask which one of your thinks of the other as a beast. ;) 

Well I don't know enough about the Potterverse magic to know how effective Pansy's spell will be or what ways there are or aren't to reverse it. Plus she's done it in a rush so it might not be as effective. On the other hand if Hermione's memories are removed and the 1^st thing she sees of Draco is him absolutely obliterating Pansy that could be a bit unnerving to put it mildly as with his temper problems if he's present I suspect there won't be enough of Pansy to bury, let alone put on trial.

One thought that occurred to me. Don't know if Pansy knows about the child, although possibly after Hermione's health scare but as the child of two powerful mages that could have an effect on the spell and it on the baby.

Simple answer to the problems of posting. Cancel the wedding! You can't let a trivial matter like that delay your writing.;) Seriously best of luck with it and hope everything goes well. Must be chaotic with Christmas and all the chaos that's normally associated with it in between as well. Post when you can and your happy with the work.

Just thought I wonder if that had anything to do with the rather extravagant way the Maid of Honour and Best Man well selected a few chapters back. Loved the way Blaise insisted on Draco going down on one knew. :D

Well didn't realise but best wishes and hope everything goes well on the day and afterwards. :)

So that was the penultimate chapter. Will miss it but been good and glad that Hermione's family have overcome their understandable initial distrust. Nice link with the Black family and good they have some link with Dimitra and Robert.

Well that was tempestuous to put it mildly. However they do seem to have started talking to each other again which is a definite improvement.

I also had forgotten about Hermione's parents and she's going to have some interesting explanations to make. Especially if at some point in the past she's told them about Draco and their 'relationship' at Hogwarts. “You know that boy who made my life hell at school? I'm going to marry him, hopefully before the baby shows too much.” ;)

Well as you say distinctly darker and sounds like it was close for Hermione and the child. However fortunately they pulled through and with a bit of rest they should be fine. Draco definitely needs to do something about that temper through!

I did consider the 6 weeks might be influenced by the time travelling and fortunately Luna came up with the key info. Another good chapter. Could be a bit difficult to explain to people who don't know about the time-travelling when the child is born. ;)

Gee, what could POSSIBLY be affecting Hermione? ^_^

Well good chapter along I suspect the presentation of the maid of honour and best man was possibly a bit strong. Although that could be just me being a withdrawn social misfit. Anyway enjoyed it a lot.

Hope none of them are superstitious given the date.

I'm guessing that Hermione is on the traditional 9 month diet? Although the symptoms do seem to have hit a bit rapidly. As Goddess of Dragons said they do seem to have overlooked the contraception spell before that last time together on the Titanic – good catch that woman as I missed it completely. :)

Could mean a short engagement as it would be awkward if Hermione had too much of a bump when she goes up the aisle – although given the date of conception it might technically be the longest pregnancy on record. ;)

Well that's got the problem with the Greengrass's sorted out or at least eased. Ironic that the tipping point was when Astoria put her oar in. ;) Will still need some calming work and of course that Hermione's ideas can help.

Good development of Draco's growing maturity and his acceptance of his problems and Harry's help.

It sounds like they aren't in on the secret of what actually happened? Instead their getting the same story as the couple said to the Daily Prophet. Knowing the truth might have helped them understand, especially for Astoria I suspect but then that would have been a major risk in keeping it secret.

Thank goodness for Astoria being there. That could have gotten way out of hand lol. What I'm really excited about is the wedding and I don't remember Draco doing the spell the last time they were intimate before the Titanic sank....so maybe a baby to? Or did I miss read that?

Like it. Nothing dramatic but a careful interview. I notice their not being totally honest about what happened but that would have complicated matters massively. Also if Pansy has made such a clumsy move it seems to have been well spiked and hopefully make it more difficult to do anything else. Other than something really stupid which she might try but I hope not. Loved Hermione doing the Scottish to English translation for Draco. Excellent touch of humour.

Hermione's visit to Malfoy Manor and running into old nightmares was very well done. Had forgotten about her being captured and tortured there and something like that is always going to have an effect. Hopefully memories will ease over time but that would really make visiting the in-laws awkward. ;)
