* DestructiveRomance: The premise of the story.

* RealityEnsues: A growing attraction between a teenage girl and a grown man old enough to be her father on opposite sides of a war is, in fact, not a beautiful thing. [[spoiler:His self-loathing at being attracted to her and his hostility to her causes Lucius to be physically abusive and eventually rape Hermione. Their becoming intimate only creates a fear of being exposed and those who find out are quick to express disgust on the age difference alone.
