    Summary

    Severus Snape survived the war—barely.

    So when Hermione Granger, of all people, invokes an archaic magical Right of Claim to tether herself to him in a desperate act of preservation, not everyone is pleased.

    It was supposed to be practical. But tethered magic doesn’t understand restraint. It pulls. It beckons.

    And when Granger starts murmuring praise into his old potion notes and wearing lace in Slytherin green, it becomes very clear that this is more.

    She claimed him to save him—but he’s not the only one unraveling.

    A slow, magical, and deeply inconvenient descent into want, need, and everything Severus has spent a lifetime denying himself. Featuring kitchen counters, emotional repression, magical feedback loops, and a surprising amount of pastries.

    Summary

    In a world ruled by Voldemort, survival is a strategy — and grief is the currency of the living.

    Hermione Granger is not dead.
    She’s something worse: a prisoner wrapped in silk, haunted by memory, and carrying a sliver of the Dark Lord’s soul twisted into her core. He can’t take it by force. She has to give it, willingly.

    Draco Malfoy is unraveling. He was meant to guard her. Not feel her.
    She was never meant to die; she was meant to become the final piece.
    But old magic binds, and now Draco Malfoy is falling for the one girl Voldemort needs alive.

    Theo Nott is chasing ancient magic before the bond devours them.
    Pansy Parkinson is done pretending to be loyal.
    Blaise Zabini watches from the shadows, too quiet, too careful, too dangerous.

    And in the far north, Harry Potter is no longer just Harry. Possessed by the thing he once tried to destroy, he's walking toward Clava Cairns, where the ritual waits, and the end begins.

    Love might save Draco and Hermione.
    But will it save Harry?

    In this world, mercy doesn’t save you.
    Mercy burns.

    Summary

    The war is all but over, and the wrong side won. Worse, the Wizarding World's hero and Ron Weasley's best friend died in the fight. When Draco Malfoy offers Ron a way to go back and fix things, he jumps at the chance. But can he anticipate how his changed moves will affect the board?

    Summary

    What looks like living is sometimes just survival.

    Hermione Granger — Weasley — Granger has scars: the ones the war inflicted, and the ones she inflicted. Mostly the ones she inflicted. And Hermione Granger has some wounds that never did heal; here in the smouldering aftermath of her marriage, they're about to start bleeding anew. Written in the conceptual universe of the short story, Lies and Red Ink (generally DH-compliant, EWE?, may require a mature reader perspective).

    Lovely people have been creating stunning art, spinoff fic, and a dramatic reading (podfic) -- be sure to check them out and give these creators some love!
