Esmeralda Hawthorn and the Silver Runes by EpicDancer

Summary
In her third year at Hogwarts, Esmeralda Hawthorn finds herself caught between shadows and secrets. With Dementors prowling the grounds, escaped prisoner Sirius Black looming over every headline, and her inventions drawing dangerous attention, Esme works tirelessly to strengthen Hogwarts’ wards—only to realize the Ministry may see her as more threat than savior.
Balancing late-night experiments with a circle of unlikely friends—Draco, Harry, Hermione, Pansy, Blaise, and Ron—Esme begins to carve out a place for herself in both Slytherin and Gryffindor hearts. But secrets weigh heavy: her knowledge of canon and the whispered title students have given her, the Dark Princess.
When the truth of betrayal and loyalty unravels, Esme must decide how far she’s willing to go to protect Hogwarts. Because the wards she’s built might keep the darkness out—
but they can’t keep her own fears from closing in.Series

Summary
[A half English student from Beauxbatons arrives at Hogwarts just in time to fall for George Weasley and land in the middle of a war she can’t outrun.]
He shortened his strides to match hers, a quiet ease as he navigated the turns of the halls. Meanwhile she was hyper aware of her breathing, louder than her footsteps and seeming to echo through the castle. She was about to apologize, insist she wasn't out of shape, but maybe all the traveling....
"What's your name?" he asked. "I guess I'll hear it when they call you to be sorted, but I'd kind of like to know it before everybody else does. I met you first, seems fair, or less weird than not knowing."
She tucked a wayward strand behind her ear. Her cheeks felt as red as his hair.
"It's Eleanore. Eleanore Ducharme. It's nice to meet you, George Weasley.

Summary
On October 31, 1981, James and Lily Potter died.
On June 30, 1997, Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledore died.
Blood Magic is more powerful than anyone could’ve predicted, even the great Albus Dumbledore.
“You said that we were on trial,” Lily said, turning to face the cloaked figure once more.
“That is correct,” the figure confirms, perking up at finally being addressed, that deep voice ringing, “Death is usually straightforward. You die, and that is the end of the road. Death is eternal. Death is the end for all.”
“Usually straightforward?” James questioned.
“Yes,” the figure states, “Unless an outside force attempts to interfere.”

Summary
Two weeks after Sirius Black falls through the Veil, Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are staying at Grimmauld, going through Sirius' things with Remus.
Two weeks after Sirius Black falls through the Veil, Regulus Black's head breaks above water.
Dumbledore isn't going to be able to keep the same secrets when a resurrected Death Eater encounters two thirds of the future Golden Trio. But Voldemort's desire for immortality means his favored General is exceedingly interested in her cousin's return to life.
-----
“Such magic is dark,” Remus breathed. “It isn’t even meant to exist. It would have required… I mean, a lot of blood, if this is blood magic… surely not…”
Regulus sighed. Sirius had thought Remus’ stammering and wide eyes when his mind was overworking was cute. Reg disagreed. “Several human sacrifices,” he finished for him. “It would have taken several human sacrifices.” Their mother was certainly deranged enough to do it.
“Is it reversible?” mini-Potter muttered.

Summary
In another world, Severus forced himself to ignore her. Lily had seen through all his lies. She'd made it clear that, no matter what history they shared, she didn't want a Death Eater for a friend, and he'd already taken the Dark Mark.
In this world, the beginnings of a desperate plan filled his head.
Later that night, Lily found a parchment crumpled into her pocket. It contained information on a raid planned by the Death Eaters, and a shaky half-crown that she recognized at once.
Or: Severus decides to turn traitor long before the prophecy was ever spoken. He loses Lily anyway, but the rest of the war goes off the rails.
Updates once (or maybe twice) a month.

Summary
Something unexpected happened to the wards at Malfoy Manor. Lucius altered them for easier admittance to the Halloween Death Eater Party, but now Draco feels off, and yet, very turned on.
And he cannot stop thinking about Hermione bloody Granger.
He imagined her dropping to her knees and grasping him in both hands. With her tongue flicking over his tip, she slowly pumped him, teasing him into a dripping mess. Her painted lips circled the head of his cock, and slid all the way down to his base while her eyes remained latched to his.
That’s all it took for him to explode a second time.

Summary
Some stories begin with letters that never arrive. With names erased from history. With a boy marked by prophecy and a girl whose magic thrums with ancient power.
This one begins with a squib who never stopped watching, a mother who never stopped scheming, and a bond that dares to rewrite the future.
A retelling of canon—rewoven from bloodlines, buried magic, and the quiet defiance of two women who refuse to let the future be written without them.
POVs: Helen Granger, Narcissa Malfoy, (and when they’re old enough) Hermione and Draco.
Our story begins in the Spring of 1981…

Esmeralda Hawthorn and the Echoes of Tom Riddle by EpicDancer
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Original Work
09 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Esmeralda Hawthorn isn’t supposed to exist in this world. She knows it — because she’s read the books and watched the films. Every secret, every twist of fate at Hogwarts, lives inside her head. And that secret is as dangerous as any curse.
When the diary surfaces, Esme intervenes before it can fall into Ginny Weasley’s hands. But the moment she touches it, she’s pulled into Tom Riddle’s snare. He doesn’t just want her magic — he wants the knowledge only she carries: the future of the wizarding world.
Armed with strange inventions of her own design and haunted by runes Tom pushes her to unlock, Esme must walk a razor-thin line. Every choice risks tipping her into darkness, every secret shared could twist the fate of Hogwarts forever.
But she isn’t fighting alone. Harry, Hermione, Ron, Draco, Blaise, and Pansy rally to her side, bound together by unlikely friendship and fierce loyalty. Laughter collides with danger, trust with betrayal, as the Chamber of Secrets reopens and shadows rise.
The diary is only the beginning. And Tom Riddle has already seen the weapon hiding inside Esmeralda Hawthorn: her mind.

*Currently under revision. I am going back and making changes with the help of a beta. If you would like, you can go back and look to see what changes have been made, but it shouldn’t be anything major to the plot. Chapter 1 was edited on 8/01/25) I still hope to be giving regular updates as well, but they will not have been checked by the beta.*
