Title: Neither Here Nor There

Fandom: Harry Potter

Chapter: Twenty

Rating: PG-13

Pairings: Hestia/Kingsley, Percy/Audrey, past Remus/Tonks. Mentions of Bill/Fleur and Harry/Ginny.

Summary: It's been six months since the war, and everyone's ready to try moving on. Lyall Lupin and Andromeda Tonks are coming to terms with the death of their children, finding solace in one another - but how long can they stay close in the face of absence? Kingsley Shacklebolt is trying to lead a country that has been left bitter by war, so distrustful many even doubt him. And Hestia Jones is trying to harbor all she holds dear, which is hard when there's secrets she's never had the heart to reveal.


Author's Note: Actually, a few notes.

- This particular chapter is a flashback to the final battle. I've tried to stick as closely to canon as possible. I may have errors. Definitely feel free to let me know how off my timing is.

Also, I've decided to write this in military time. 22:00 is 10:00 and so forth.

- I borrowed Remus and Tonks holding hands during the battle from the movie.

- Some parts of this chapter conflict with minor details in previous chapters. I will edit to reflect those changes.

Author's Note: Wow, it's been a while. You can view prior chapters in the tags. If it also helps, this is the same basic universe as a lot of the short fics and drabbles I've been writing lately.
