The Last War/YMMV


 * Accidental Innuendo: Hermione's love for Harry is like golden water, apparently. Wow.
 * Angst Dissonance
 * Anvilicious Author Tract: Ron and Ginny are bad, Harry and Hermione are good. Can't you tell?
 * Cliché Storm: If there's a cliché of Shipping in general or Harmonians in particular that this fic doesn't feature, it'll probably put in an appearance if it ever gets continued.
 * Complete Monster: Ron.
 * Critical Research Failure: Cooking a stew for longer doesn't make the meat less tender. Also, "the streets of London were deserted that night"... unless it's Christmas in the Doctor Who universe, this isn't likely.
 * Designated Hero: Harry and Hermione.
 * Did Not Do the Research: To be fair the author only said that the 1994 Erasure song "Always" sounded "eighties", but still.
 * Die for Our Ship: Literally.
 * Ear Worm: Always, I want to be with you, and make believe with you, and live in harmony, harmony, oh love...
 * Eight Deadly Words: The author makes it extremely hard for the reader to care about Harry and Hermione, depicting her as an Extreme Doormat shadow of her canon self who paradoxically manages to murder someone without any character development, and him as a shallow bastard obsessed with his wife's weight and inadequate breasts.
 * Fridge Logic: So Ron mysteriously disappears, and at that same time, Hermione moves in with Harry, who immediately transfers all of his accounts to France and the two of them leave the country. How long do they think it will take the Ministry of Magic to extradite them?
 * Growing the Beard: The final chapter, if taken in isolation as a one-shot with the Take Thats removed, wouldn't be so bad.
 * Narm: The overwrought prose and general hamfistedness of the story are near-impossible to take seriously.
 * Ron the Death Eater: The fic's treatment of Ron can best be described as Dark Secrets with better grammar but even worse characterisation. Ginny gets it bad too. As does Dumbledore, posthumously.
 * Hermione and Harry come out looking pretty loathsome themselves. Hermione's entire marriage to Ron was a sham to stay close to Harry in the hope of running off with him, and Harry only married Ginny for her looks and wangsted when she put on weight.
 * Unfortunate Implications: See Beauty Equals Goodness and Chickification.
 * On a squickier note, putting Hermione in an abusive relationship becomes far more disturbing when one remembers that she's an Author Avatar for JKR (originally) and LoPEF (in the fic).
