Harry Potter and the Lord of the Rings: Actually, I've Loved You All Along

The first time she saw him was at the Sorting Ceremony for first-year junior wizards: a tall figure in black robes, with an icy face that she instantly disliked. The first time he saw her was at that same ceremony: she couldn't stop grinning, which immediately got on his nerves. This is the story of a gloomy man who keeps everyone at arm's length and a mischievous girl. To hell with society's rules. Let me tell you: I've been in love with you for a long time.

Dedicated to our forever Mr. S.S. I will always love you.

Reader's Guide:

1. This is a rewritten HP parallel world where all the characters have been renamed. Proceed with caution, and don't read if this isn't for you. The main and side plots are entirely from my own imagination, and the characters' fates will differ greatly from the original. To avoid disrupting the reading experience, and out of respect for the original pairings, I changed the names to better rebuild those pairings. It's likely to be a very long, sweet story with a little spice. Just writing for fun, so read for fun too. Happiness comes first.

2. The characters' appearances are based on the films, but other details are drawn from the original novels.

3. The school names have changed, but their essence has not. I won't maliciously vilify anyone or any school. They all have their own qualities.

4. The magical weapons have changed in form, not in essence. This has nothing to do with The Lord of the Rings films.

5. All interpretations of magic belong to J.K. Rowling.

Premise: Rewriting the original main plot and imagining sweet, doting side stories. In a thousand different worlds, how do you find yourself while escaping the things that hold you back?
