I can't believe I forgot to post this here. I fixed the wonky formatting, a couple of things that nagged me and a few typos. All remaining mistakes are mine.

[redsiodaslair]

I'm happy that you enjoyed the story. :) Thank you for reading.

( I understand from the next comment that you recc'ed it. Thanks so much.)

[mrsquizzical]

my pleasure. my recc is probably a better review than i left here! :~P

[redsiodaslair]

Aargh, I thought I had answer you earlier. I'm sorry! :(

I meant to write that reviews and comments are the icing on the cake for me, and I appreciate that you took the time to read and to tell me so. Thank you very much.

P.S. Would you mind if I submitted the story I wrote for you, Desheret, to fic archives? I really like this story and would like to see it up on TQP and on CM, if they like it too. :)

This was recommended by MrsQuizical.

So many wonderful points it's hard to pull them all out.
the image of Hermione struggling to get her trauma on parchment is profound and real. The way her feelings forced to write it, not in facts and events but in emotions really brings out the Hermione. The one who would break rules but only if she had to. I love the idea of her struggling to put the events in boxes that wouldn't contain it and being forced to break the rules.

I love how you defined the friendship so clearly. They were not predestined to do anything they choice to be loyal and to love each other.

this was beautiful!

Oh wow, what can I say but thank you for your kind comment. Hermione is such a beautiful, passionate, responsible and justice-seeking character, and I thought that putting her in a situation where she has to ponder on her possible legacy to the world could be a good way to explore the themes of memory, friendship and writing.

I'm so thrilled you enjoyed it. Again, thank you.

Oh... wow... I'm speechless! I could never write a review worthy of this story...
Simply beautiful! :)

[redsiodaslair]

Oh dear *blush*...Thank you for reading. This was the toughest fic to write and to let go. I had an idea in my mind, and I'm sorry to say that this fic doesn't look at all like what I intended it to be. However, I'm thrilled that it found readers. :)

I'm rereading this again for rhr_awards, and oh, how I adore the poetic quality of the whole story. It definitely deserves the nomination. ♥

[redsiodaslair]

Thanks so much. I'm very happy it got a nomination. :-D

This piece was rec'd on crack_broom and I came over to take a look. I'm so glad I did as you've left me practically inarticulate with admiration. This is truly marvelous.

[redsiodaslair]

Oh wow, it was rec'd!

Thank you very much for reading and leaving such a kind comment. I'm thrilled that you enjoyed this story! :-)

[bambu345]

You're most welcome, and I think I must go see what else you've written.

[redsiodaslair]

I'm very flattered. Thanks. Please make yourself at home!
