    Summary

    Draco Malfoy is sentenced to five years probation following the Battle of Hogwarts, including the onerous task of completing weekly group therapy sessions. Trapped in England, he finds himself sitting in a shitty conference room in St. Mungo’s every week across from his newly-ex girlfriend along with his friends that abandoned him at the height of the war. He doesn’t think life can get much worse, until Hermione Granger starts showing up. She’s hiding something, and if there is anything Draco will not abide, it is a Gryffindor with a secret…

    OR:

    Draco Malfoy gets splinched being nosy and strikes up an odd relationship with certified killer, Hermione Granger.

    CW throughout for suicidal ideation, alcohol abuse, graphic injuries, panic attacks, and overall angst

    This is nearly completely written, estimated to be 60k+ words. The first half is a whole lot of misery. No one is happy and I think that's pretty normal for traumatized teenagers, but better days are coming. I appreciate comments as you read along, and find me on Bluesky for drabbles and updates!

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the war, Britain’s magical society lies in ruins. The Ministry is fractured, the Order scattered, and the remnants of the Death Eaters either hunted or vying for power. Hermione Granger, once a hero, now finds herself bound to Draco Malfoy through an ancient blood pact—one that twists their magic, tying them together in ways neither of them fully understand.

    Summary

    Five years after the war, Draco Malfoy keeps his life small: a London flat, a forgettable Ministry job, and a policy of avoiding literally everyone. It’s working—he’s stable, if still sarcastic as hell—right up until Hermione Granger shows up to ruin his lunch.

    Now a Ministry Investigator, she “requests” his help searching Malfoy Manor for a dangerous artifact…one the last Death Eaters are also hunting. But when a routine inspection turns into something far more tangled—surfacing long-buried truths—they’ll have to confront who they were and who they might become.

    Or, Draco got therapy and space after the war. He's still an arse but is trying to be a better person when he reconnects with Hermione in an unexpected way.
