They are newly married-one month and two days, precisely. She is a wife now, a word that is odd and disconcerting on her tongue. That they married quickly (and oh, speculations of her ambiguous state of pregnancy still worm their way into the Prophet’s gossip column) never bothered her.

That was so deliciously creepy! Poor Hermione... I'm a big fan of Poe, so I loved the allusions to "The Masque of the Red Death." Wonderfully written.

Yes, I knew that I was going to have problems portraying a Hermione who actually preferred Ron over Snape, lol! As I told mimimanderly, I mean, WHO would choose Ron over Snape?!?!?

Ginny's glimpse of the sneer was one of the first scenes I imagined. Heee! Thanks, clairvoyant!
