Thank you so much for this. I love the idea of Harry joining Charlie in Romania after the war--it's a story I tell myself often, when I begin to worry about his chance of surviving the series--and your depiction of it is wonderful. The slight tension between their respective positions as hero of the wizarding world/apprentice and as a supremely talented dragontamer is lovely, especially the lines: It's good progress, Charlie had said, but Harry knew that Charlie had ridden his first dragon after less than an hour of trying. He grinned anyway. The hint of romance was very well suited to the tone of the story, also; I could see the two of them being like this with each other.

Nicely done. It's well written, and plausible.

I just found this through a del.icio.us search, it's the only one listed when I did a general search for harry/charlie. *G*

I absolutely love it. It's peaceful, and kind, and it made me smile. :)

I am also impressed as hell, so rarely do I see people write with such a perfect tone, with such clear voice, that dialogue unfolds naturally, easily, without the use of quotation marks. I didn't even miss them until 3/4 of the way through, and then it was more of a "Huh. That's cool. That works."

So, almost a year after you posted, but I wanted to let you know I loved it. And you'll have two del.icio.us listings now. ;)
