Summary
"Times have changed. They are all a bit older, wearing their best crimson and gold 'nice muggle clothing.' Their eyes are a bit wearier, their skin is a bit more lined, and their smiles are much more forced.
Times have changed; the Golden Trio is tired of the scrutiny. The circus. The adoration and the hate. And on their faces, you can see the wear and tear of being the most famous people in the wizarding world.
Times have changed; instead of finding Horcruxes, they supported each other in being picked apart by reporters. They didn't have long talks. No chess games. No quidditch matches. No sneaking about the castle. They were three parts to a puzzle of grief and grim determination to grin and bear it."
Post-war Hermione Granger is attempting to figure out adulthood. When she is thrown into the atmosphere of a former rival and cared for by a close friend, she begins to remember who she is and what she wants.
