Summary
A Soul Mark could be left for any kind of love—familial, friendly, romantic, pure, fantastical. Each color represented a different bond between the people that touched skin-to-skin. The colors stayed the same until the death of that person. Then, the Soul Mark would turn grey.
Katara had never seen someone without Soul Marks.
But Zuko’s skin didn’t have colors—it only had scars.
[Final chapter rating changed to Mature.]

Summary
It’s been hard to think, since Katara showed up without notice yesterday evening with a storm in her eyes, a raised chin daring him to turn her away, and barely anything else.
(Seven years after Sozin's Comet, Zuko and Katara marry. It's a mutually beneficial arrangement and not nearly as romantic as the songs played at their wedding.)

Summary
Katara and Zuko's mission on board The Southern Raiders goes badly wrong, and they are captured and imprisoned in the unforgiving hull of the ship.
Katara now finds herself locked in a small room with a boy that she refuses to trust, and nine years worth of trauma and guilt swimming in her mind. She is resolute in her hostility towards Zuko, but as the horrors of their captivity unfold, an undeniable bond is formed in the quiet moments between their captor's torments.
When they find themselves safely back with their friends on Ember Island, they are both sporting deep scars – old and new, seen and unseen. Katara struggles to reconcile all the pieces of herself and figure out who she truly is. And Zuko continues to battle with his past guilt, and the new guilt that arises from his growing feelings towards Katara.
As their bond deepens – it may be the lifeline they both so desperately need to pull them from the dark waters of their past.

Summary
Zuko goes into exile with a scar, a mission, and a wife.
The girl wears ill fitted ceremonial silks. She is too thin, with jutting bones and hollowed eyes. Dirt smudges her cheek. Her lower lip has a healing split in it. Gaudy as her finery is, she wears it like prisoner’s rags.
All of this Zuko registers in the time it takes him to reach the dais and bow. Every muscle aches with the remembrance of what happened the last time he knelt before Father. This time there is no begging, no roar of the crowd, no burning. Still—Zuko’s grateful to stand once more.
Slipping into soldier’s parade rest, he waits for what will come next, all too aware of the girl’s defiant body next to his.
“I am told that this is Katara of the Southern Water Tribe,” Father says, cruel amusement oiling his words. The phrasing makes the girl sound like a thing. “The last waterbender of their pathetic tribe.” Flames conceal all but his shadow, yet Zuko knows from long experience the exacting blade of his father’s smirk. The smirk he must surely wear now. Because he has built up his insult and now he lets it fall. “Your bride.”

Summary
Lord Malfoy has been working for the department of mysteries since the Battle of Hogwarts in May of 1898. He proved his worth as a spy and double agent, and has been roundly celebrated as one of the Golden Quartet. Draco has never been satisfied, however, that the fifth member of their group was hidden from the public, and even less satisfied that no one in magical London has set eyes on Hermione Granger since the day after the battle, when she disappeared from St. Mungo’s.
Now, in May of 1910, the muggle King Edward VII, has been killed by magic and Lord Draco Malfoy finds a surprise awaiting him when he consults with an expert at the British Museum while on the trail of the killers.
Works somewhat within canon, books 1-4, if the books were set a hundred years before they were, then diverges.

He was someone that seemed unreachable, an impalpable being floating by life as if it were a dream lived in seconds. He acted impermeable, no public opinion or whispers of rumors spoken in the shadows could deter how high he held his head. She viewed it as admirable, others viewed it as arrogance.

Summary
Draco had set out to accomplish many goals upon his return to Hogwarts for eighth year: Obtain seven NEWTs. Perform all Head Boy duties with grace and precision. Win the Inter-House Quidditch Cup. Convince the student body that he is no longer prejudiced. Survive.
Fancying Hermione Granger was absolutely *not* one of those goals.
And yet, he finds himself head over broom for the witch by the beginning of their second term.
Because Draco cannot--simply cannot--fancy Hermione Granger, he resolves to undertake a series of tasks to dispel his feelings for her.
Guiding him is Crookshanks, who has, Draco belatedly discovers, his own, conflicting goals regarding Draco and Granger.
[A story in which Crookshanks is heavily involved in the Draco-Hermione relationship.]

Hermione has literally just got her parents back and is outraged to find out that McGonagall wants the family to invite the 'ultimate dipshit' Draco Malfoy to stay with them.
But if they refuse, Malfoy is headed to Azkaban.

Summary
The first time Draco seeks her out at the hospital is a crisp October day, which happens to be the six-month anniversary of her divorce.
“Hello,” says Hermione, glancing up from her paperwork. “Draco. Can I…help you?”
He’s well put together, dropping gracefully into the chair across from her desk without invitation. “Yes. I’m in need of medical attention.”
“I see.” Hermione does not, in fact, see. This is quite unorthodox. There’s a triage procedure and rarely does it result in patients coming to her office. “Tell me more.”
Five times Draco fakes an ailment as an excuse to visit Hermione, and one time he doesn't. D/Hr Advent 2023 🎄

Summary
Draco's mother marrying a Muggle -- in Australia, of all places -- was frankly unbelievable. But even was more troubling was he just couldn't shake the feeling he *knew* the man from somewhere. But how could Draco Malfoy know a random Muggle from bloody Australia? And why did the man's curls remind him so very much of his perpetually infuriated (and easily nettled) co-worker, Hermione Granger?
-- Yet another ”feuding rival co-workers discover they are step-siblings, stage a fake-relationship to fool an amnesiac parent, share a single bed and disagree about the existence of any resemblance between the villain in Die Hard and their former potions master before finding love over the holidays” fic. You know, the usual fare.
