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 Granger thought that she could not possibly be surprised by anything anymore, but Theodore Nott arriving at the safe house with a perilous, last-ditch solution to the nearly-lost war against Voldemort isn't even the most unbelievable thing. The most unbelievable thing is that Theo is supposed to be dead.
**
The Order is losing the War. Most are dead and the ones remaining are sure to follow. Theodore Nott has a solution. Give up everything to win it all back. It's simply not the Slytherin way to run head-first at a problem, and Hermione is ready to try anything. His solution? A bit more cunning. It's one thing to run straight at the King and hope for the best, but perhaps the solution is to get rid of the pawns- one by one- first.

Summary
Hermione was eight when she summoned her first demon. She was lonely. He asked what she wanted, and she said a friend to have tea parties with. It confused him a lot. But that wasn’t going to stop him from striking a promising deal with the young witch.

Summary
Harry
One minute I'm in Malfoy Manor, the next I'm being yelled at for dying.
Again
Apparently I'm rather good at it. Honestly, it's not that shocking. How am I supposed to stay alive when it's three against an army and we're working off of faulty information? When Mortimer said he was sending me back again, my first response was anger. Yet another Old Man making decisions for my life.
Until I saw the headful of riotous curls on the other side of Death's hallway.
I don't care what they do to me, but they fucked up when the killed Hermione. The next time I die, I'm taking Riddle and all his minions with me.

Summary
Hermione Granger had saved the Wizarding World.
She had saved everyone she cared about, everyone they cared about, and all the others no one else cared about. She, the Mud-Blood of the Century, fought long and hard for seven years, learning everything she could to stop the dark forces that rained hell on the world she loved. She saved lives and kept others alive, though she never took any. She saved Sirius Black; she saved Fred and George Weasley; she saved Severus Snape. Hell, she even saved Draco and Lucius Malfoy from a dark life in Azkaban. Hermione Granger did the Wizarding World a service she didn't have to do.
And this is how the repay her?
THIS is how they repay all the good she's done in the world?
She could forgive hiding things from her -- hell, it wouldn't be the first, but tricking her into following their plans? Dousing her with potions and removing things from her mind? Was setting her up to be bound for eternity with men she didn't truly know, nor even like, somehow BETTER than the others?
No, that's not how this works. How dare they treat her like this? Trick her, lie to her, abuse her.
Fine. She'll ruin their lives, just like they tried to do to hers.

Hermione Granger and the...Series by ariel1200s (mia1200s), mia1200s
Fandom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
Hermione is descended from an ancient, powerful line, or two. Because of the potent mix in her Muggleborn blood, she inherited rare abilities long thought lost to the Wizarding World. Follow her as this brings trouble right to her doorstep in a hectic series of world-traveling adventures.
This is a lighter, fix-it type of story. While some of the misadventures Harry embarks on will happen, they’ll either be off-screen or altered from canon. The point of this series is to create new adventures for Hermione and embark on those journeys with her friends. She'll experience crushes and dates along the way, though there aren't any solid pairings at this point. Part of the adventure is not knowing who her end game is. Just be advised that I have a proclivity for Hermione/Multi. pairings or reverse-harem pairings.
Apart from the first book which is a prequel of sorts, each book will follow one year at Hogwarts and the mischief she gets up to over the summer.

Summary
Magic is a tricky thing. There must be a balance between Light and Dark magic. Apparently nobody stopped to think that killing Voldemort might upset that already delicate balance. Now nature is requiring Hermione to pay the price in order for balance to be restored. Doing otherwise, means death.

Summary
There is a new heir to Slytherin to attend Hogwarts but it’s not who you think.
AU where Voldemort didn’t die after leaving the Potters he lost a lot of power and had to lay low, but he also had to leave someone else behind in the process. A prophecy? A triad? Snakes and sneaky Gryffindors galore as we look in to what would have happened if we would have gotten a bad witch..
