Summary
In a world without Tom Riddle or Death Eaters, the wizarding class divide and prejudice still thrive. With no troll in the dungeon to solidify their friendship, Hermione Granger never forms a bond with Harry Potter or Ron Weasley. Resented and ostracised at Hogwarts for her unapologetic intellect and self-righteous superiority, Hermione spends most of her school years isolated and alone. Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy moves through the school with passiveness despite his popularity, secretly burdened by the weight of his family name and a deep discontent he cannot name. When detention entangles them together, they become drawn into the same orbit and the certainty of their separate lives begins to fray. Constantly losing and finding each other in an ambiguous path, they both navigate a gravity they cannot resist.
If you’re looking for fluffy romance, this isn’t for you. This is a nuanced exploration of two flawed characters finding their way through a complicated connection. It’s a macroscopic observation of unresolved conflicts, shifting dynamics, and the grey areas of human relationships. At times, it will hurt. And it will frustrate. But above all, it will lay bare the messy, unvarnished truth of the human experience.

Summary
The first blood adoption took place in 1946. For years, High Lord Grindelwald has been perfecting his society where magic truly is might, and every witch and wizard under his purview is adopted under the banner of one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight. No halfbloods. No muggleborns. Only purebloods.
In all that time, no child has ever matched with House Ollivander. Then, a young brown-haired witch summons fiendfyre during the adoption ritual, giving Garrick Ollivander a new Heir and a chance of saving his Ancient and Noble house. Time is of the essence, as Hermione must survive her zenith: the by-product of the ritual which had been the death knell for all four of Ollivander's children.
Hogwarts has developed into a premier school specializing in Masteries, Apprenticeships, and Erudition with students enrolling after their OWLS, but no Ollivander has ever walked the hallowed halls. In a gambit to save his daughter, he enrolls her in Hogwarts to study under the masters with the desperate hope that she will be able to withstand the massive influx of elemental power that is her blood-right. Pureblood politics, accidental bonds, House rivalries, hidden motivations, and unknown histories further complicate the issue.

Summary
Harry Potter is dead. Voldemort has won. A new wizarding world is being formed. Those who refused to fall in line and pledge their allegiance during the Battle of Hogwarts are to be made an example of, Hermione Granger included.
An arena has been built, where those closest to Potter are to fight to the death in the first ever Cursed Games. To make an example for all wizarding kind - a message: never cross Lord Voldemort.
This is absurd, of course, Hermione would never hurt those she fought in the war with. She would rather die or starve than be swayed into attacking her own side. She cannot imagine any of them would hurt her either.
But there are darker forces brewing that will turn friend against friend, and force Hermione to shift how she views those closest to her, and those she hates the most.- Language:

Summary
She stirred, her golden-brown eyes finally focusing on him with a fragile clarity that sent a jolt through his chest. She looked at him like he was a stranger.
“Who are you?” she asked, voice hesitant.
The words struck him like a hex.
She doesn’t remember me.
Relief at her waking vanished beneath the weight of that realisation, leaving something hollow in its place — something far more dangerous than grief.
When a late-night Patronus interrupts the chaos of the Auror Office, Draco Malfoy doesn’t hesitate. Hermione Granger’s been attacked—and while she survives, the aftermath is far from clean. Her memories are gone. Not the magic, not the brilliance—but every shared glance, every scar, every sharp-edged truth between them.
Draco is assigned to keep her safe. It's meant to be temporary. Professional. Detached.
But memory is a fickle thing, and the threat hunting her is more deeply embedded than anyone at the Ministry dares admit. As secrets rise and loyalties fray, Draco must protect the one person who once knew him too well—and now doesn’t know him at all.
Not yet.

The Risk'verse Quartet - The Revised Edition by MissiAmphetamine (Kaleidoscope)
Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
19 Dec 2025
Summary
The trio's search for the Horcruxes was abandoned when Griphook absconded with the Sword of Gryffindor, leaving the three – traumatised and disheartened – to return to join the rest of the Order in the ongoing brutal war against Voldemort. Several months later a maimed, disillusioned, and broken Draco surrenders himself to the Order after his failures earn him Voldemort's displeasure, and Hermione finds herself the warder of the prisoner in the cellar.
The Risk'verse Quartet is an epic, coming-of-age wartime series that follows Hermione, Draco, and the Order of the Phoenix throughout an extended war, and then onward into the aftermath. It's a realism-focused character and relationship study, with dual POV, angst and hurt/comfort, slow emotional burn w/ glacial physical burn, bickering & banter, a secret relationship, Classical Latin as a love language, violence and gore, coping with broken families, and how the brutal toll of war and trauma changes people.
But at the heart of it all, it's about a love that eclipses everything else.

Summary
During the Battle of Hogwarts, Hermione Granger vanishes. She finds herself unable to cope with it all—the missions, the dangers, the trauma. For five years, no one has seen or heard from her. Now, on the anniversary of Voldemort’s defeat, Hermione secretly returns to Hogwarts to attend the unveiling of the memorial honoring the fallen, only to discover something shocking—her own name engraved among the dead.
While visiting the castle, she encounters Severus Snape, a fellow ghost trapped between worlds. As they unravel the mystery of her apparent death, Hermione must confront the truth of what really happened that fateful night.
Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy, now working for the Ministry as an Auror specializing in magical souls, has been searching for Hermione ever since. Consumed by regret for never confessing his feelings to her, Draco is drawn back to Hogwarts by strange disturbances. His search converges with Hermione’s quest for answers, and with Snape’s guidance, Draco may finally get the chance to bring her back—but at a price neither of them could have foreseen.

Summary
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
Or something like that.
In the aftermath of the war, the wizarding bureaucracy agreed: all eligible wizards must marry within the year.
And thus, Draco Malfoy finds himself in somewhat of a predicament.
Or: The one where Draco learns to be brave; Hermione figures out to have a little bit of fun; and Pansy Parkinson bags a war hero.

Summary
Cicatrize (from Latin cicatrix, meaning "scar") [sɪkəˈtraɪz] verb: to find healing by the process of forming scars
⊱•≼═══════≽•⊰
Harry James Potter was supposed to have died May 2nd, 1998. He had made peace with the certainty of his death that day. Now that it was no longer a certainty, he didn’t know what to do.
“My dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you.
Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness.
Let it kill you and let it devour your remains.
For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
~ Falsely yours”

THIS FIC IS BEEN REWRITTEN
We want to change some things and fix others thing.
_______________________________________________The first three chapters will be presented as Daily Prophet articles, dripping with scandal and whispers — and let it be known, Rita Skeeter is hardly a journalist one can trust.
After the Battle of Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy was presumed dead—disintegrated by a strange spell witnessed by only a few. But eight years later, he is discovered alive in the dungeons of Azkaban, wearing a tattered prison uniform marked only with a number.
Now, he faces trial for all his alleged crimes, with no one to speak in his defence.
With his parents exiled and banned from returning to the wizarding world, his solicitor—assigned to the case for just a week—finds his hands tied when it comes to building a proper defence. But in a sudden turn of events, a last-minute witness steps forward, and long-buried secrets begin to surface.
Will justice prevail? Is Draco truly innocent?
And why does Hermione Granger keep dreaming about him—and a little girl with silver hair—every single night?

Summary
Six years have passed since the Battle of Hogwarts. Six years of broken hearts, lost loves, and new beginnings.
Hermione Granger stepped out of the magical world in 1998 and has refused to return, only keeping in contact with the Potters and Weasleys, and for good reason. Her son is her life, and she'd do anything to protect him, especially from the world and people that had wanted to eradicate her from it.
Things begin to change when alarming attacks on Muggles begin emerging around London, and no one knows the cause or the perpetrator. Secrets long buried threaten to upend Hermione's peaceful existence as a single mother. And problems she'd distanced herself from suddenly require her attention again.
She's not prepared herself for her son's exposure to the magical world, but she may not have a choice as a resurgence of dark magic is brought to her doorstep. And the person most equipped to protect her is someone she'd been avoiding with her departure from the wizarding world.
Draco sodding Malfoy.
