    Summary

    Draco is small and the world is big when his mother takes him by the hand and points to the sky.

    It’s a time of in-betweens. After a war, but before a war. After infancy, but before boyhood. After he’s learned how it feels to be loved unconditionally, but before he’s learned how love changes when it comes with conditions.

    “Vesper,” she tells him, squeezing his small hand. “That’s the evening star.”

    It’s so bright, he doesn’t even notice the dark beginning to settle all around it.

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy has a mission to complete, and no one can help him. Spending nights stuck on Prefect duty with Hermione Granger only adds to his problems. Doesn't it? Or is it possible that their unlikely relationship could alter the course of the Second Wizarding War -- if the Boy Who Made All the Wrong Choices can get this one thing right?

    Come for the medium-burn Dramione, stay for Magical lore and new twists on the canon we love (and love to change)

    Summary

    Their fingers touch when Draco hands her the paper and Hermione's heart almost jumps out of her chest.

    The note reads: How do you spell ‘cute boy’ with only two letters? -Riddle Me This

    Hermione finds herself grinning. “Cutie. Q-T. That’s the answer to the riddle. You’re a cutie, Malfoy.”

    [the one where someone leaves Draco Malfoy riddles to solve from the local coffee shop's community board and he enlists Hermione Granger for help.]
