Epilogue, what epilogue? But yes, this was something I loved as well. It became darker, more complicated and you could feel that not only the world, but the HP universe kind of grew up. I think he would stand up, yes. By fifth year he's already turning into a leader and by seventh he had literally the fate of a nation on his shoulders. These things change people.
Your experience with the Harry Potter fandom sounds very much like mine. I might write it, but then I would need an English native speaker as a beta. ^^ Usually I'm slow with fandom jumping. Really slow. I just... stick round.
We know from book one that Harry's parents have paid the fees. But who paid for the poor kids like Tom Riddle? Or Severus Snape even? Maybe there is kind of a government support going on. After all, it's not as if they have a second school anywhere or it least it didn't get mentioned. (but I do suppose that there are lots of magical persons do not go to Hogwarts.)
I would so read this. :D It works out pretty well, you're right and it would make things beyong awkward. Especially when he meets/ sees Sirius... and Snape. And everyone else.
The Epilogue was ... yeah. It felt so different, and the name's of the children had me stare in horror. I mean with a name like Albus Severus... Hey, you're named after the worst and the best headmaster of all time, one who forced the other to kill him through blackmail and which both grieved the consequences of a single choice their whole lives. Aren't these great names?
That kind of reminds me... what do you make out of this whole "Master of Death"?
