This is too cute for words so blame any incoherence to that.
First, I love the children. Scorpius' and Rose banter, their interest in quidditch and Ron's dismay at having a soon-to-be-Slytherin daughter. Al being all shy and cute and seeking reassurance in Scorpius. Hugo following his uncles' footsteps (probably), and Lily! So shrew and lady-like... she was brought up by Narcissa all right. And it's clear Draco is smitten with her!
“They’ll be wrecks when we get married, won’t they?” Oh make sure, they will ::lol:: Narcissa will be both a little sad and ecstatic, taking charge of all the preparations. Harry and Draco will be more nervous than the kid who's getting married. In Lily's case, they will take the groom aside for a little Talk. And then Draco will corner him alone for a little talk ::lol:: I particularly loved that line because the first thing that came to my mind when Draco stayed with Lily, making faces at her, was 'He'll be the typical overprotective Dad, I pity the poor bloke who ends up with her'. I can so picture Draco's expression when she announces for the first time she has a boyfriend XD
I'm frustrated with mirror!Harry. I could be sad for him if it wasn't for the fact that he's not happy because of his own stupid choices. Good to see that Harry hadn't been obsessing with his mirror self. I think the reminder of what life could be apart from each other makes them appreciate what the have even more. I liked how you gave a meaning to The Nod from the book epilogue :)
I really really loved this story. It was original, interesting, with a good dose of action but more focus on Harry's and Draco's feelings and character growth. I loved the slow progression of their relationship, you do a great transition from pre-slash to slash without it coming up forced. Now I can't wait to re-read it and see what small details I missed (yay for holidays!). Still, the Frame of Mind series is my favourite. This story is more original, true, but Draco taking care of Harry is my undoing :P
I can't to read more of Forgive Those Who Trespass, and see what other stories you have for us (I'm rooting for the potion one):)
