Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

Nathan spoke. "Uh Remus? What exactly would a paradox entail?"

"Usually some disorientation and a very stiff headache. Nothing too awful and catastrophic generally."

"No high energy explosions?"

Remus chuckled. "No, but I can see where you would be concerned. I assume you're thinking of the rules that matter can only occupy one place at a time, correct?"

"Yeah, that's generally how that works."

"Yes, generally. Magic, however, has a built in 'safety valve' that prevents that sort of thing. You see, if Harry or Hermione were to have headed down the beach and shook hands with their future selves, their magic would have established a minute field that would have prevented them from actually touching. The backlash would probably have thrown them apart and stunned them for a while, but to no lasting harm."

"Indeed, wizard-kind are not known for careful and well considered actions."
