UPDATED VERSION can be found on my page under the same name, Mongoose! IN WHICH Coriolanus Snow has finally elevated to the station of Gamemaker, but Soma Plinth refuses to let him bury the deeds of his past, even if it means drowning herself along with him. Whatever beautiful, ugly thing the had in the past can go to hell.

Sebastian Sallow is a tortured soul with the world on his shoulders whose only mission is to save his sister Anne - at any cost. Atley Barlowe is a budding new witch who also carries the world on her shoulders as she travels the road less traveled to unlock the secrets of her connection to ancient magic. Will the burdens of their lives, minds and souls prove to be too much or can they save each other? Sebastian Sallow x Fem!oc (but please feel free to replace "Atley" with your oc's name and "Barlowe" with your oc's last name in your mind if you'd prefer to read it that way.) Slow burn romance but will slowly become a deep and dark fic filled with heart swelling fluff, chaos, angst, magic, dark magic, romance, friendship, family, twists, turns and all sorts of soul crushing. This will be a LONG fic in order to keep the entirety of the story together - but for new or slow readers - do not worry, chapters are fast paced and kept at a manageable length. Will contain spoilers from the Hogwarts Legacy game. Characters aged up to year seven (18 years old). - *SPOILERS - There will be MANY spoilers for the HL game so read at your own risk ** TW: This story will contain themes of death, struggles in mental health, depression, PTSD, anxiety, violence, a bit of intimacy, terminal illness, blood, alcoholism, injury, self harm, "foul" language - if you are uncomfortable with any of these, please do not read! *** All characters aside from Atley and their likeness are owned, created and trademarked by Warner Bros, Portkey Games, the Wizarding World, etc... all rights to them. Story / original character owned by me. Occasional scenes be taken from the game and use quotes, but my own additions will be added to them. Lastly, thank you for reading and all your support!

This is a translation of a Ukrainian fanfic Rating: Explicit Relationships: Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy, Ginny Weasley/Blaise Zabini, Luna Lovegood/Pansy Parkinson Additional Tags: Post-War, Hogwarts Eighth Year, Angst with a Happy Ending, POV Hermione Granger, Depression, Rape, Violence, Memories, Missing Scene. Hermione Granger didn't know what to do with her life. She didn't want to return her parents' memories, didn't want to be with Ron, and didn't want to... live this life. At Hogwarts, she was given a Sense that showed her emotions to everyone. It also showed her emotions to him, Draco Malfoy, who didn't deserve to be in her thoughts. Her feelings had led to deaths, and Hermione would not let that happen again. She was determined to find out what he was hiding. "What about you?" Pansy asked. "The war damaged something in all of us. But you... Something broke you..." Hermione was silent. There was a lot going on. She looked at her bracelet. It flashed blue. Hate... "A very loud silence," Pansy concluded.

In the wake of the Dark Lord's triumph over Harry Potter, the defeated must learn their new place. Hermione Granger, former Golden Girl, has been captured and reduced to human chattel. Sold to the highest bidder as the top prize at an auction of Order members and sympathizers, she is thrust into the rabid, waiting hands of the Death Eaters. But despite the horrors of Voldemort's new world, help-and hope-seem to arise from the most unlikely of places. PART 3 of the RIGHTS AND WRONGS series. THIS STORY IS BY Lovesbitca8 ON AO3!!
