Curse in Reverse

Harry has to either kill Voldemort, or be killed. This much is certain. But has anyone, besides the now deceased Dumbledore, really paused to give thought to exactly what this means? A sensitive, emotional, and kind young man having to watch more loved ones die, to bear whatever atrocities happen to him personally, and to finally be forced to murder another human being? This fic explores one possible outcome, five years after the defeat of Voldemort. Hermione, with Ron, has been incessantly trying to locate Harry, or at least ascertain his fate, to bring some measure of closure. Hermione's latest investigation leads to nothing, again, but she runs into a talented, melancholy young musician performing outside the Three Broomsticks...

Hermione makes the mistake of mentioning her meeting with Nobody to her friends and co-workers and finds herself the victim of assumptions. She meets up with Nobody again, accepting his unspoken invitation to see him play again.

Hermione's mysterious musician date is none other than who? You've probably already guessed it ;) Good thing there's much more to the story.
