It's so much easier to write fortysomethings! (Is oldddddd ...) Yeah, they have too much humour about themselves to bother with angst. It gets in their way with regards to the shagging, but makes for good dialogue opportunities!

I am so glad that you liked Hermione and Narcissa! And that's EXACTLY what I think they would be up to, with Rose encouraged to look for a department to make her mark in, too. If they worked with Minerva, they could probably take over the world. And that would be a fascinating world ...
