Hermione would never have allowed any of it. The irony wasn't lost on Harry, the dichotomy of it. It had made him who he was, the man finally strong enough to protect her ... but she would have probably killed him herself if he'd even suggested any of the things he'd done. He smirked at the notion. Harry was dominant, powerful, fiercely independent. He owned the responsibility of taking care of everyone. He was covetous of it.
