Remember that part in “Of Hearts and Heros” when Adrianna made Ron Teachers aid because he was the most approachable out of the Trio?

I just love how much faith Adrianna had in Ron.

On @pynki‘s recommendation (big thank you, by the way), I decided to check this out. It’s a lot longer than fics I normally read, but I had some free-time to spare (I know, the usually modest H&M reading a mature fic; has the world gone topsy-turvy?). 

I love how Ron developed some much self-confidence from people just having faith in him! Heck, just reading about it made me feel like I could be more confident in my everyday life! 

I think “Of Hearts and Heroes” gets the Ron-Hermione balance really well. It’s how I would have liked the later end of the series to be; showing that they were both teenagers making mistakes rather than proportioning all the blame onto Ron (also this version of Hermione doesn’t set a flock of birds on Ron).

Such a good story (obviously, being me, I avoided the saucy bits) and I really enjoyed reading it. 

You had never read  “Of Hearts and Heroes”?

Oh wow, I’m glad I made this post then. You’re more than welcome.

How much did McGonagall being impressed by Ron’s transfiguration warm your heart? God, I love that fic.

Have you read the “Hermione Granger and the OOTP” trilogy? 

@headcanonsandmore – you should ask @pynki about the SPEW-RC vault. She’s a curator of some of the ancient works that have otherwise gotten lost to the annals of time.

There’s some siriusly good fic in the vault for private personal appreciation.

@pynki I only started reading fanfiction in the past year, and most of what I do read tends to be one-shots and drabbles. 

I LOVED that bit! It was so wonderful to read; wished he’d gotten that level of appreciation in the books, but I’ll take what I can get. Thank you so much for the recommendation; I really enjoyed it!

You mean the trilogy by Ann Margaret? Yeah, I enjoyed it. But I didn’t like the whole ‘Hermione understands her emotions and is just waiting for Ron to catch up’ thing. I think Emmilyne makes it a lot more balanced; like the fact that both of them are being held back by insecurities (Ron thinks he isn’t worthy of Hermione, and Hermione doesn’t think she’s attractive enough for Ron), instead of just ‘Ron got’s the emotional range of a teaspoon LOL’ like so many fanfics do. 

@diva-gonzo I don’t really read mature fics (even with ‘Of hearts and heroes’ I just skipped over the saucy bits), so I don’t know whether I’d be the best person to read them. But I’ll happily check them out if you think I’d enjoy the non-NSFW parts of the fanfics!
