#180 in Fanfiction || #1 in Hermione || In the language of literature, there exists a seemingly-concrete, antonymous relationship between good and evil, light and dark, hero and monster. And yet, we often disregard the transition from one to another, in which the 'bad guy' becomes 'good.' Perhaps it was the cruel mistreatment of Tom Marvolo Riddle as a child, or maybe it was the bloodline of Slytherin's heir himself that made the boy into the 'monster' who cannot be named. Or, perhaps it was simply because he did not know that his heart would beat in such a frenzy, that his cheeks would redden like a crimson rose, and that his normally-calm facade would melt under the simple gaze of the time-travelling heroine. If I were to bet, I'd say it's the latter. But it matters not why Voldemort could not love, for this is not a story about Voldemort. This is the story of Tom Marvolo Riddle, and how he came into direct conflict and company with the 'brightest witch of her age' ... fifty-years ahead. This is the story of love's recognition, in which the force does not suddenly develop between two people, but a poignant emotion, different for each individual, is uniquely described to be 'love.' Maybe Tom Riddle never loved, much like that of Voldemort. However, as one chooses to stubbornly believe, love existed for Tom Marvolo Riddle as long as he chose to believe that he loved Hermione Jean Granger. ////// NO TRANSLATIONS ARE BEING ALLOWED AT THIS TIME DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the characters detailed in this book, nor any of the quotations and plot taken from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."

Convinced by Hermione to get a new pet, Harry goes to Magical Menagerie and finds it's now owned by Draco Malfoy who has changed since the war... in a good way, a really good way.

The Potioneers of Damocles, founded back in 1969 by the Potions prodigy, Frank Longbottom, it now consisted of four of the most talented potioneers from Hogwarts. They were geniuses, legends... and Lily Evans wanted in. However, after messing up her one chance to impress them thanks to an unfortunately timed prank by James, Lily is ready to give up, fifth years don't mingle with sevenths anyway. However, James is not and will do anything in his power to help. His crush on her is definitely one of the reason but having inside access to Gillyweed to turn Snape into a fish man wouldn't hurt either...

// I gave up editing this asdfg Draco's afraid. Yes, Voldemort is dead but he's more terrified than ever. Draco is lost. He doesn't know what's right or wrong anymore. Draco's tired. He wants to end it all. So he ran away. He started a new life in the muggle world. A new name, new life, new home. The least he wanted is to stumble across another wizard. Which also happens to be Harry Potter

Some loves don't fade. They rot. Because love that cheats twice was never love at all.
