Merry Smutmas, jeddy!

Title: Increments of One
Rating: NC17
Pairing: Harry/Charlie; side mentions of het pairings including Ron/Hermione
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry, Charlie, or the 'verse in which they live, which are © JKR/WB et al.
Summary: After the battle, Harry's life goal is met. Now what?
Warnings: Slightly dubious consent, mention of sex toys.
Author's notes: Jeddy asked for a theme of rebuilding right after DH, and wanted dubious consent, misunderstanding, humor, frottage, non-penetrative sex, desperation and canon compliance, but not fluffiness or AU. I hope this meets those criteria. Merry Smutmas!

	Hi, hi, my day has been absolutely manic and I'm unlikely to be able to finish the story before I go to bed, but I didn't want to leave you hanging. What I have read so far is fabulous and I'm really looking forward to finishing it. Thank you so much for the effort you have put into this story for me. More detailed comments to follow shortly.

Ah, the end was just as wonderful as the beginning. I can’t believe you took my mishmash of requests and gelled them together into something as wonderful as this story.

I love cleverly structured stories and the way this story stepped through time was very well done. It gave wonderful support to the rebuilding theme and gave the story great pacing.

I love the interaction between Harry and Charlie, and how clueless Harry was in particular. Not just about their relationship, but also his own desires and rather sadly the pain he was causing Charlie. How very canon. The scene between him and Hermione in the bathroom was hilarious. And I could feel her fond frustration bleeding through the page.

All the supporting cast were similarly wonderful, especially Neville. And, hee, using Romilda, the manhunter, to show the pitfalls of fame was a fantastic idea.

The details of the ruin of Hogwarts were fantastic. I particularly loved the description of the destruction of the giants. I’m also really glad that someone took proper care of Snape’s body - though the image of him being buried in white will surely raise a few eyebrows. In any case, Charlie was wonderfully practical in that scene. It was a great introduction for him in the story.

Thank you again for writing such a wonderful story.

	Thank you. I started out writing an entirely different kind of story (different pairing) and then was pretty afraid I hadn't given this enough attention once it became clear the first approach was doomed, so I'm glad this turned out all right. :) Thanks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, it's much better than all right. I hope my inability to squee properly hasn't left you with doubts. I'm so over the moon to have received this story. Thank you so much for all your hard work. (Reply to this) (Parent)
