You're welcome. I hadn't signed up this year, because I just wasn't sure how things were looking, but then there was actually an opportunity to pinch, so yay!
But yes, I wanted to leave the ending open: did whatever happened there break the relationship? Did they put it back together? Did she ever manage to fix the spell? Because there's nothing in the canon we have to support the relationship still existing (Kettleburn is there, unmentioned, through CoS; Hagrid is his replacement in PoA--and the relationship could still exist because Harry never considers Pince's love life, after all) or the spell being in place when Hermione takes books out, but I mean, it could be--if Pince sees the charm as one of record-keeping and not one of oversight as far as what people are reading, then she might in fact not comment to anyone on books being out to whom. But still, she can't canonically actually know about what books Riddle took out even though he was why she started working on the charm, because that messes with the idea of Dumbledore having to reconstruct stuff. So.
