Author's Notes: For idea_of_sarcasm, who wanted plot and strong women, and made me step out of my comfort zone, by giving me a dozen pairings to choose from that I'd never written before. It was a lot of fun for me to write this and I hope it is somewhere along the lines of what you imagined. Your prompt list was really a dream come true, because it was specific enough to give me a starting point while remaining vague enough to let me go off into a million different directions, before I finally settled on this.
Huge amounts of chocolate kisses to my fabulous beta reader for all her hard work, and the hp_summersmut mod for her infinite patience.
