    Summary

    The Risk-Reward Ratio
    [Relationship of substantial reward corresponding to the amount of risk taken; mathematically represented by dividing the expected return by the standard deviation.]

    Draco and Hermione continue to fight for the Order as the war churns on, reaching a fever pitch.

    Most often they are side-by-side – everywhere from rescue missions in the sewers of London, to fighting against – and making use of – Muggle weaponry at a Russian military research facility in Yekaterinburg. They’re sent in search of powerful ancient relics that lie beneath Britain, and go up against Fenrir Greyback and his pack, while the Order prepares for a dangerous assault on Gringotts.

    Meanwhile, despite the war life goes on, and the two of them struggle to navigate prejudices, their own tumultuous relationship, the inconvenient reemergence of old friends, and the possibility that they might lose each other forever.

    Summary

    Gravitation
    [Law III: To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal, and directed to contrary parts.]

    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.

    Summary

    The Just World Fallacy
    [The cognitive bias that a person’s actions always bring morally fair and fitting consequences to that person, so that all noble actions are eventually rewarded and all evil actions are eventually punished.]

    Another Horcrux has been destroyed, but at what cost?

    In the aftermath of the Gringotts heist, Hermione and Draco find themselves struggling to survive both suffering and separation, which drive them to the limits of their endurance and beyond even as the war goes on, relentless and merciless.

    As the final confrontation with Voldemort approaches, everything is fractured; people, loyalties, and trust. But is it broken beyond repair?

    Summary

    When a pandemic of Runespoor Fever sweeps through the wizarding world at the end of 2003, leaving a full quarter of its victims infertile, the International Confederation of Wizards takes drastic action. A marriage and reproductive law is enacted, throwing the wizarding world into upheaval.

    Lightly inspired by the 1989 film The War of the Roses, (but without the animal death,) and our own recent pandemic.

    She was wearing one of her neat, buttoned-up outfits as always; brown herringbone trousers and a silky cream blouse that covered her from throat to wrist, her hair braided around her head but not quite as neat as usual. He stopped several feet from her and frowned. “Why do you smell of smoke, Granger?”

    “Does it really matter, Malfoy?” She skewered him with a glare, arms folding across her chest. “Perhaps I took up smoking.”

    “And did you?”

    She gave him an ‘are you mad?’ look. “No, I burnt down my office,” she said exasperatedly, as if it should’ve been obvious, and he tried to refrain from giving her an ‘are you mad?’ look in return.
