Summary
Tom Riddle is used to being the cleverest wizard in the room—until a new transfer student upends his final year at Hogwarts. She’s cryptic, composed, and a little vindictive, but in Slytherin, that’s nothing out of the ordinary.
Still, Tom can’t help but feel there’s something off about her.

Summary
As a curse-breaker at Gringotts, her profession was dangerous enough; what she didn't expect, however, was for her new post as the Ancient Runes Professor to be just as treacherous. With a young dark wizard running around, she's in for more than she ever expected. REWRITE.

Summary
There’s something unnerving about Tom Riddle.
Hermione’s never quite been able to articulate just what it is about him that unsettles her so: after all, Riddle’s popular and charming and adored by Hogwarts staff and students alike. Still, she’d swear that there’s something lurking beneath that warmly polite veneer of his, something that lies in wait like a serpent in the dark.
But it’s not until her sixth year at Hogwarts, when she rashly confronts him over an unprecedented act of violence, that the full force of Riddle’s chilling regard is abruptly and wholly turned on her.

Summary
"How - how dare you?" She stammers, pushing him away with both hands. Riddle backs away as though she is brandishing a hot poker, a horrible little smile on his face. Her thighs burn white hot from where his hands have been trailing up. Hermione yanks her dress down and continues, finding her voice through the fog of insanity that has clouded her judgement. "How dare you just show up to my house and threaten me, then kiss me!"
"In my defence," Riddle says mildly, with a strange expression. "I only planned on the first."
"That is a dreadful defence!"
---
Or, Tom and Hermione start their sixth year of Hogwarts entirely off on the wrong foot.

In a rare moment of clarity, he saw himself through her eyes, saw what he’d become. Suddenly he felt so very tired. He slid down and sat with his head back against the bars, caring not one whit that he might seem vulnerable. She wouldn’t be able to get out.

Summary
Darcy Bragg has lost her boyfriend and her job, and now she’s lost her car. Even worse, the beat-up Ford contained her son’s beloved "Lord of the Rings" annotated trilogy. So Darcy takes 10-year-old London to the nearest library to replace the book. But the library is strange and the librarian mysterious. “Our patrons don’t read the books, they LIVE them,” the librarian says as he wrings water out of his shirt. “Just don’t pick Jacques Cousteau.”
And so Darcy and London find themselves on the Road to Bree with three protein bars and the haziest of instructions. Darcy's ex-boyfriend bursts into the library minutes later, looking for her, and bullies the librarian into following Darcy and London. Those two end up in Minas Tirith, and although the librarian has never read the books, he's convinced that Boromir is the hero.
Darcy and London, meanwhile, are soon separated, each trying to travel to the trilogy’s end. London is living his greatest fantasy, while Darcy just bumbles her way south, impersonating a Nazgul and wrecking the plot by rescuing Boromir. The ex-boyfriend's efforts to locate them just make everything worse. Is a happy ending for Middle-Earth even possible anymore?

Summary
Ginny never took Ancient Runes, but she grew up with magic seething in her sinew and coiling in her gut, and so laughter, hard and hysterical, bubbles up in her chest when she sees a precisely cut crescent moon sitting inside a pictogram of a sun.
The sun marks the hours of the day, but the moon marks the passage of weeks. Months. Years.
There’s still shouting behind her.
Ginny doesn’t hesitate.

Summary
“The essence of totalitarian government, and perhaps the nature of every bureaucracy, is to make functionaries and mere cogs in the administrative machinery out of men, and thus to dehumanize them.“
After Voldemort wins over Wizarding Britain, Hermione emerges from hiding to undertake a dangerous mission for the now-decimated Order. Using a modified Polyjuice Potion, she adopts a new identity and begins working undercover at the Ministry of Magic, alongside Draco Malfoy.
