Magical Methods
This collection has been created to gather Harry Potter fics that really delve into the mechanics of magic. This can be from the author(s) giving more background into canonical magic, creating their own, going into detail about Magic as a sentient force, expounding on creature culture, etc. The possibilities are literally endless because MAGIC! All pairings and ratings are welcome, though my personal finds will skew toward Hermione-centric.

Summary
Hermione has been looking forward to attending Hogwarts as a student ever since she first heard of it. Being separated from her god, however, is intimidating. At least her Hogwarts years are filled with the sort of chaos that "Loki" loves (though Gabriel really would prefer it if she managed to stay out of danger more often. And he really does not like this 'Voldemort' character. Those twins are alright, at least, even though they're a bit too fond of his priestess for his liking).

Hermione Granger and the Year Hidden from Hogwarts by mia1200s
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
26 Jun 2024

Summary
Hermione was born with abilities inherited from an ancient bloodline, or two. Her eleventh birthday passes without the owl meant to deliver her Hogwarts letter. Instead, she is tested and trained on her ability to see things others can't--labeled as a psychic in Muggle terms. No one knows she's a witch, not even the Ministry of Magic. Follow her adventures at MI5 until the spell hiding her magic ends and a beloved Charms professor arrives to hand-deliver her letter personally.
This is the first book in a long, seven-book series. This one will be much shorter than the others since it happens before Hogwarts. Hermione's relationships aren't set in stone at this point, especially because she's so young in this book and hasn't yet been to Hogwarts. Just be warned that I tend to write and enjoy reading Hermione/Multi, so it'll probably end up being like that when we wrap up. Either way, the driving force is the plot, and less on the romance.

Once a wolf, always a wolf. When he crosses paths with a young witch that sparks a protective side that he was not aware he had, will he change or will he alter a little girl's life forever?
