    Summary

    He is surprised to be alive. He cannot remember why he should be surprised, but he is all the same. His body hurts. Like it did after Nightless City. Like it did the first time he crawled out of the Burial Mounds. Like it did when he was thrown into the Burial Mounds and hit the unforgiving ground, bones cracked, organs punctured, heart broken.

    Something rustles near him, but he is unable to turn and look. He cannot move or feel his limbs, but there is still a deep, throbbing, hurt that permeates his very being. And all he can think is I am so tired. I am so very tired.

    OR

    Wei Wuxian finds out about Lan Wangji’s punishment before the first siege of the Burial Mounds. He arrives at the Cloud Recesses stricken with grief, still covered in blood from Nightless City, and kidnaps Lan Wangji without any plan. This spurs misunderstandings, earlier revelations and confessions, a rescue, and a journey that will take them all the way to Koi Tower. Will taking Lan Wangji to the Burial Mounds with Wei Wuxian save the remaining Wens, or will it only hasten their demise?

    Summary

    When Hermione looked up, wrist deep in the process of crumbling cold butter into her flour mixture, Draco had stopped pacing.

    “You said you liked the blueberry scones. From the café. It seemed like they were a part of your strategy. I thought I’d…” she trailed off. Ridiculousness robbed her of confidence.

    Draco’s silver eyes rotated between several points of interest: her face, her hands in the mixing bowl, and the parchment still crushed in his grip. “I don’t know that the scones were part of any strategy, per se. But I do—like them. That is.”

    “Good. So I’ll just”—she jostled the flour and butter in her bowl in a sad pantomime of mixing—“while you read.”

    [In which Draco is a rambling, nervous mess and might have accidentally fallen in love with Hermione.]

    Summary

    When does duty turn into self destruction?

     

    Hermione Granger carries the weight of post-war Britain on her back - undercover, overworked, addicted to potions, and quietly unraveling in the privacy of her Muggle penthouse.
    When the hunt for a vanished Death Eater lurking in Muggle corporate circles pulls her into the orbit of Draco Malfoy, everything shifts.
    He’s steady. Sharp. Infuriating. Bound to her in a way neither of them understands. And, for the first time in years, she doesn’t feel entirely alone.
    But nothing about this is simple.
    Not the mission.
    Not the Ministry of Magic spiralling without direction.
    Not the dark magic rising in the shadows.
    And certainly not the fact that he may be her only salvation.

    -------

    Draco slowly examined his own scar before extending his arm towards Hermione. His finger stroked her collarbone and gently traced down her silver lightning. Hermione let her own hand drop by her side, reeling in the feeling. She closed her eyes but could feel her heart thumping even faster than it had during the battle.
    “I think… We are somehow connected. You wanted to save me. And I… wanted to be saved by you.”
