This is a retelling of Year 6 (HBP), but told entirely from the POV (actually, 3rd Person Limited POV) of Ginny Weasley. It remains strictly, strictly in canon and, as such, contains a decent amount of dialogue lifted directly from the original text;...
Ron hasn't realised yet how great a man he is. Learning to know himself and grow confident for it is a journey he won't have to go on alone: Hermione will always go along. Fluff and confort all in one go.
With the help of some flashbacks from their summer pre-Deathly Hallows, this story captures a few moments surrounding the DH period of Ron and Hermione's growing relationship, beginning from their reunion in the tent.
The trouble with being a hero is you can't avoid talking to the press. Like the proverbial bad penny, Rita Skeeter pops up again in the days after the final battle. Can she be trusted this time?
