Summary
“There’s something wrong with me, Malfoy. You’re normal. Everyone else is normal. And I don’t think I’m the person you should choose.” Hermione hangs her head. “I don’t know all the positions and the sounds and the words. I don’t know what you’re looking for. I’m probably going to be the worst one night stand you ever have.”
Malfoy says nothing for a long time.
Hermione is too nervous to look up from the sidewalk. She’s just poured out her biggest insecurity to someone who isn’t her Mind Healer or the members of her group therapy. This is a big step she isn’t sure she was ready to take.
And she’s just taken it with Draco Malfoy.
He cocks an eyebrow.
“Granger. If you think I’m anything close to normal, you are sorely mistaken.”

Summary
In the years since the war Hermione had taken to watching George, especially in the moments where he thought no one was, and it was clear to her that the smiling mask he put on was just that, a mask, a facade to fool everyone into thinking he was dealing with the loss of his twin just fine. She didn’t buy it.
Over the course of a year they end up sharing a bed five times, each time bringing them closer while also exposing the depth of his grief. Until finally they end up doing much more than just sharing the bed.
A 5 times +1 story exploring loss, grief and healing. Oh and smut.. eventually.

Summary
Growing up is complicated—especially when you're George Weasley and you realise, far too late, that you might have feelings for the last person you ever expected.
It starts when he's thirteen, a mess of hormones, ill-fitting robes, and an appetite that could rival a troll’s. She sits under the Sorting Hat for an eternity, wild-haired and stubborn, and for some reason, he can’t look away.
By fourteen, he knows far too much about Hermione Granger—how she likes her toast, how she wrinkles her nose when she’s deep in thought, how she never backs down from an argument.
At fifteen, he wakes up from dreams about holding her hand and wishes they were more.
At sixteen, he finally understands that he’s completely and utterly screwed.

Summary
"There is no heir to the House of Black. Narcissa has not destined us for the stars. Do you understand?”
“It is a miracle enough that she survived, Cygnus,” Druella said quietly. “We are all disappointed, but Narcissa will be brought up a Black, and no less of a Black than any of our children.” Cygnus laughed furiously.
“Children! Children!” he gestured madly at Bellatrix and Andromeda. “Some children! I told you to give me an heir! All you have made me are girls!” And with that, he stormed out of the room, leaving Druella and her daughters alone.
That was the first time Andromeda felt it, the thing she couldn’t name, the guilt of being born, the anguish of being unable to please her family.
OR
Fic charting Andromeda's life, through childhood, to Hogwarts, to Ted Tonks, and the betrayal of her family that follows.
