This is a great collection of lives afterwards! I enjoyed reading this story so very much, the different tone that you've chosen for each of the characters to set them apart from each other.

Dennis Creevey's story was the most painful. I loved how Pansy is moving on, so powerful and not a bit sorry for herself; she will survive. Cho - she'll always be the kind of girl who is looking for happiness somewhere else. I loved Percy's attempt to leave his door open to George - that's just what he would do!

Thank you so much for writing and sharing!

Thanks! Your remarks about the characters are dead-on, and I'm so glad you liked it. Pansy's story was probably my favorite.

I love these! Dennis Creevey's and Percy's stories brought tears to my eyes.

Oh, lovely! It's very realistic, and most of these characters I never really thought about much before, but you made them wonderfully human.

Thanks so much!

This is the kind of epilogue I was really hoping would have been at the end of Deathly Hallows--something a la War and Peace, where it's like "BAM! 50 pages about EVERYBODY." I'm still surprised Rowling didn't take that route--her supporting characters were genuinely developed, not just straw men to be paraded around Harry, advancing the plot. I think she must have just exhausted herself, and I think she had a sentimental attachment to the epilogue she did publish, seeing as how she reputedly wrote it--what?--ten years ago ( ... )

Here from a recs site, and even though it's quite late, I really wanted to say that this was lovely. I liked very much to see the snippets for the minor characters, and I thought the way they dealt with their losses post-DH were very appropriate for each one. I enjoyed this very much!
