    Summary

    This story started as a series of drabbles, ficlets, and could-have-been-canon scenes beginning in June of 1995 wherein Fred and Hermione slowly become more than friendly acquaintances. Similarly, this fic itself has gradually morphed into much more than that, and certainly more than I had ever intended it to be.

    It’s now 250k+ words of my explaining by example all of the ways that these two could - SHOULD - have been canon, and what that might have looked like if it ran alongside the events of the original books (or most of them, anyway).

    That said, this story is significantly darker than canon, and it touches on some of the trauma that was previously brushed over, as well as injecting some where it makes sense to have occurred. There’s plenty of humor and joy, but there’s also a lot of pain that, within the context of the story, has good reason to be felt.

    Regarding the Underage tag, the characters are ages sixteen and eighteen at the first occurrence. If this upsets your sensibilities, this is not the story for you. Especially triggering content will be called out in chapter notes.

    *TAGS AND CHARACTERS/PAIRINGS WILL BE CONTINUALLY UPDATED AS NEEDED UNTIL THIS IS COMPLETE*

    Summary

    Hermione is perfectly - well, not happy, but - content with her life after the war. She works in the Ministry alongside Percy Weasley, adores her godson Teddy Lupin, and is just lucky that her friends are happy.

    Up until the marriage law crops up. That does definitely put a damper on things.

    Luckily, Fred knows how to make people laugh.

    Summary

    Entering her second season in London, Miss Granger is already bored out of her mind. She is not interested in entering a marriage with one of the gentlemen, pursuing her only because of her dowry. Mr Weasley, who is the fourth son of a landowner not even having a title surely is no exception there. Or is he?

    Summary

    Healing a broken world is much like healing a broken heart. Maybe the pieces will never quite fit back together perfectly or a few go missing along the way. But what fills in the gaps can bloom into something you never dreamed possible.

    Life and love flow like the ever changing tides.
