Hermione Granger is working on the most important project of her life, if only she knew exactly what it was. It's been six years since the war ended, and Draco Malfoy is a new man with old regrets, if only a particular witch would let him make his amends. After agreeing to a collaboration and fuelling the sparks of friendship, the two realise that everything has its time and place, they just need to find theirs.

"Just get out of here, Hermione. I'll handle this myself." Draco hadn't called Hermione by her first name in... well, Hermione wasn't sure if he had ever used it in her presence. As he walked away from her, she noticed a limp in his step and a few droplets of blood trailing in his wake. With a sigh, she followed, her stubbornness getting the best of her. "Let me help," she repeated, quieter this time. "I'm sorry for what I said. Truly. You just--" "Bring out the worst in you?" Hermione's face flushed and Draco looked at her, truly saw her for the complex, overly kind, passionate yet maddeningly stubborn woman that she was.. ((Draco's having trouble casting a patronus charm, but that's not the only thing haunting him. After enlisting the help of the brightest witch of his generation, they soon discover that it's the least of their problems. Dark magic is at play, and somehow it's inextricably tied to the Malfoy family line, or so they think... 4/10 chapters posted))

Nach dem Krieg steht für Hermine Granger aus verschiedenen Gründen fest: Sie möchte das letzte Schuljahr in Hogwarts wiederholen. In Erwartung, dass es ein Jahr ohne Gefahren und Bedrohungen wird, will sie sich vollkommen auf schulische Belange konzentrieren. Sie merkt allerdings rasch: Der Schulstoff ist schnell ihr kleinstes Problem, denn schon bald stellt sie fest, dass Ängste sehr tiefsitzend sein können und Vorurteile nur schwer abzulegen sind. Und bald sieht sie sich mit der Frage konfrontiert: Was, wenn vieles doch ganz anders ist, als sie dachte?

Draco Malfoy's history of poor decision-making continues after the war, when he returns to Hogwarts under strict probation. Bored and restless, he decides to cast the infamous Vanishing Cabinet spell to link his bed with the bed of a willing witch. But something goes horribly wrong, and instead of the buzzy flirt Draco's been secretly meeting, his bed keeps delivering an extremely unamused Hermione Granger. So begins Draco's travesty of an "Eighth Year," where nothing goes to plan and good deeds NEVER pay. His mother owls him daily prophecies of doom, a rabid she-weasel stalks him through the castle, and his mad roommate from Durmstrang plots to avenge the Dark Lord. Each day Draco struggles with his worst nature and often loses. Every night brings Granger back again, wreaking havoc with his body and mind. Draco is convinced he's headed straight back to Azkaban and he's almost looking forward to the trip. COMPLETE! (Illustration by K Writes Dramione)

ᴅʀᴀᴍɪᴏɴᴇ • Insasse 43.M.D. hat seine zehnjährige Haftstrafe für seine Beteiligung im Krieg unter Voldemort abgesessen. Allerdings besagt Erlass 137 des neuen Gesetzes zur Resozialisierung von Straftätern, dass ehemalige Todesser vor ihrer Entlassung aus Askaban zum Schutz der magischen Bevölkerung obliviiert werden müssen. Mithilfe eines vom Zaubereiministerium zur Verfügung gestellten Mentoren sowie einer Gedächtnismodifikation sollen die Täter die Möglichkeit erhalten, sich nach ihrer Entlassung wieder nahtlos in die magische Gesellschaft einzugliedern. Auch Insasse 43.M.D soll resozialisiert werden, was die ihm zugewiesene Mentorin vor eine der schwersten Aufgaben ihres Lebens stellt.
