Six single people are coerced into filling out a form that searches for one's perfect mate. What if the outcome isn't to their liking... at first? This is my take on LOTM's YLC Challenge over at WIKTT.

I totally loved this story. You made the couples totally believable.

Love the quote from Dune.Great story, third time I've read it so far.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks so much!

This is really good so far:) Though I have to admit I'm surprised Hermione didn't tell Snape why she wanted him as a date. It would be an insult lol. On to the next chapter...

Glad you're enjoying it so far!

The games have certainly begun, all that sniping!

Greg grew up nicer than expected
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Yep, in this fic at least. I think the actor that plays him is a cutie pie! ;-)

Great surprise match for the epilogue! Now I can get some sleep knowing that they've all gotten the happy end.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
LOL! Thank you! I have to have my happy endings!

Yay! Severus is coming around.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thank you! Whoot!
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thank you! Whoot!
Thank you for not letting Hermione and Severus run out on their arguments. I loved them in this chapter. It was heartbreaking to see how insecure Ron had made Hermione, and it's wonderful to see Severus making it all up to her.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, I made Ron a prat in this fic... though I really like Ron, just not with Hermione. LOL

Okay, I take that back, having it be Ginny and Draco was perfect. When he came back, I had tears in my eyes. Luna and Greg are so adorable, and I think Severus and Hermione are wise to be cautious.

Thank you! I couldn't have him leave her! tehe! I do like L/G. I need to write more of them! Yep, I agree about SS/HG.

I love that you didn't reveal to the characters who their matches were in the letters. The tension was just lovely, and I liked all the times someone else noticed that Hermione and Severus are in love. Having the couples wait is maddening but wonderful. I much prefer it to a less introspective scenario. I don't have a sure guess for the lemons except that I hope it isn't Draco and Ginny.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks! I wanted that to be a surprise and some source of tension there, too. Ginny and Draco? Well....

What a jam-packed chapter! I can't pick a favorite scene because they were all thrilling.

Thanks! That's just what I like to hear! (Read?)

Thanks for the confrontational scenes. I think you did justice to all of the characters. It seems that Hermione made some sort of self-discovery as well.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thank you! Yes, she did here.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)

Ah, so many chapters, so little time. I like the way you write conflicted Severus. The Charms mistress was a nice touch.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks! I am so happy that you're enjoying my fic!

Great chapter! I'd thought that Luna and "Greg" were not going to get much ink, and I'm happy to see them like this.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks! It was fun writing them!

Well, you knew what you were doing when you named this chapter. I appreciate that Luna was given privacy on her wedding night. The matchmaking couples were adorable.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
THank you! Glad you enjoyed it and Luna!
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
THank you! Glad you enjoyed it and Luna!
Well, the casserole apparently didn't burn the house down, but there was definitely hot stuff going on there. I'm intrigued by the Malfoy, um, intrigue...
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thank you! Yeah, the heat was on!

Hee! I love that you've got them all interacting before they get the survey results.

Wow, no one pulled their punches, did they? Good transition.
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks! No, they didn't. Glad you liked it.

Thanks for sending a link to this story to the list! I'm already enjoying this story quite a lot. I like that it's been five years, although I can't quite picture Harry being such a first-class jerk to try to kiss Ginny like that. Still, great chapter!
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks! I know, and if you'll notice, a lot of times he won't look her in the eyes....

THanks for that!

I love this! Oh man, Ron and Harry are bastards aren't they? I'll try to get to read more of this soon, but very, very engaging and realistic reactions. I think the Killing curse could have come in handy. lol. ***
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thanks so much! I am glad you like it! Yeah, they are bastards, and they will get worse before they get better! ;-)

What a great romantic story. I loved it! You did a wonderful job developing the characters and the plot. It was good to see Gregory Goyle have a nice character for once. Great job!
Response from cocoachristy (Author of Reconcilable Differences)
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it! I think the actor that plays GG is a big, cute, teddybear, so I wanted one fic to have him in a good way! ;-)
This story was an incredible journey. It was a lot of up's and down's and the pairing of Luna with Greg was excellent. I also loved the friendship between Hermione and Ginny...I can never seem to write Ginny! Anyway, I love the conclusion of the story and I think the two of you make a wonderful team when brewing up a new story! Thanks! You both are a credit to the fandom!
