Summary
She was cursed for being a woman as much as she was cursed for being the whores daughter.
As Princess of England, Hermione knew there was no room for love in the midst of court. She could not afford to be selfish, chasing fanciful ideas about love and goodness. A traumatic experience under the care of her step-mother, Catherine Parr, taught her that men could be manipulated through simple means, yet the same means that brought about her mother's death.
She had to be carful, especially as the main rivalrous factions son, Draco Malfoy, attempts to take her hand.
(Where we have our favourite Dramione couple, but set in the Tudor period)

Summary
After the war Hermione Granger joined the Ministry, and soon learns that you can rationalise anything if the logic is sound enough.
The Pureblood Registration Act seemed reasonable when she helped draft it. Just documentation.
The asset seizures seemed justified. They had enabled persecution.
The monitoring program seemed necessary. Someone had to maintain oversight.
The Purity Investigation Courts seemed like a logical response to extremism.
Step by step, policy by policy, signature by signature.She built it with the same brilliance she'd used to fight Voldemort. Methodical. Thorough. Convinced of her righteousness.
This is a story about the banality of evil, the seduction of righteousness, and how easily victims become perpetrators. About power that strangles instead of liberates. About finding grace in the ruins of what you've broken. This is about falling from grace, and the slow, agonising climb back up.
---A note on the title, inspired by the song "Grace" by Jeff Buckley: The title (Grace) signifies a saving quality, a way to handle life’s trials (growth, tragedy, and love) that keeps a person from "pulling the trigger too soon".

Summary
A smile tickled the corners of Hermione’s mouth as she clicked Send. She listened to the whoosh of the message and then turned off her computer.
When the ping! had come in, she’d had one foot half-out the door of her flat. She’d dropped her coat and darted for her computer desk, a wide grin blossoming at her inbox.
You’ve Got Mail.

Summary
Hermione felt the pounding in her ears again. She would see him for the first time since the Great Hall, gaunt and stricken at the Slytherin table with his mother clutching his arm. She hadn't meant to look for him. Not in the corridors, not beneath the white sheets of the fallen, not on the way to the Chamber of Secrets with Ron, but she was a stupid girl.
