Thank you so much! I feel like this might be the first time I've written Filius (or that I can remember) and it seemed quite natural for the mutual attraction would be between him and Hermione. The more I recalled his backstory, the more I remembered what a great character is and how he very well may have been the Hermione of his age! They are similar in many ways in terms of how people have tremendous expectations of them and yet they have their strengths and weaknesses.
I confess I always wanted to write a story about that picture even when I was young! I love that captured moment in time and the role-reversal felt just right at that moment: Hermione is the knight and Filius the blushing damsel.
The prompt was what propelled this story into being and I'm thrilled you enjoyed it! Thank you for such a wonderful comment.
