Summary
All Draco wants is to ride out the last months of his sentence in peace.
All Hermione needs is a bit of break.
Throwing them together in the same location is perhaps not ideal.The healing of old wounds and new ones wrapped into a little bit of danger, a modicum of action, and a smidgen of Wizard politics, served with a sprinkling of PTSD and a remote cottage on the side. Otherwise known as the twoshot that totally got away from me.

Summary
Draco Malfoy is terrified.
And Draco Malfoy is falling.
Cast aside.
Hermione’s blood shifts, chemicals flooding, heating, and cooling to unworldly degrees as she pieces the fissures in him. And as though something were splitting the floor beneath her feet, diving into the ground to coil through the centre of the earth itself.
She feels him.
She physically feels him.

Summary
In which Draco is hit by an unfamiliar curse, affecting his magic. Hermione is a healer, specialising in magical degenerative diseases. Healing him demands copious amounts of research, forced proximity and red wine. Added bonus is pining, frisky feelings and a grumpy cat.
Set 15 years after the war, this fic features my favourite tropes, a medical mystery, a reasonable amount of snark, and a lot (a lot) of pure self-indulgence.

Summary
Lucius Malfoy has died, and Draco has inherited the Malfoy estate. For the next six months it is under Ministry review.
Draco Malfoy's problems now include: (i) a vast network of assets he cannot name, let alone manage properly; (ii) a one-night stand who won't go away; (iii) a different one-night stand he's wanted to find for years; and (iv) his mother's insistence that he start courting, preferably before Pansy Parkinson does.
Meanwhile, Hermione heads out on a field assignment where she makes an unexpected friend. Upon her return she’s given a new assignment from the Ministry that should be a curse-breaker's dream: find Lucius Malfoy's dark objects and decommission them.
If only the Manor would be more cooperative.

Summary
On the 31st of October, an eleven-year-old girl will bring about the end of the world. According to prophecy, anyway, and everyone knows those are infallible.
Fortunately, the world has unlikely heroes in the form of Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy, who've selflessly agreed to put aside their mutual hatred and long-standing prank war in order to find the girl and stop the apocalypse. If only they could be certain they have the right child…
For fans of Terry Pratchett and dramatic irony, a comedy of errors about two people so stubbornly in denial, Fate itself decides to step in.

Summary
He hadn't seen her in years, and his reaction to her the last time they'd crossed paths had been understandably different considering they'd been standing on opposite sides of the aftermath of the final battle.
And yet, there she was.
And there he was, sporting a lot more than a semi at two in the afternoon, a potions text awkwardly shielding the tent in his trousers as she sized him up with those doe-like brown eyes.Months later, he had a dent in his Gringotts vault the size and shape of a library of interesting but superfluous books and more potions ingredients than he could use in a lifetime, all because he couldn't stay away from her.
And now the shop was empty.
Granger was nowhere to be seen, the blinds had been pulled, and the sign in the shop window had been flipped to display 'Closed' to the streets of Diagon.
How long had he been back there, hiding in the shelves and lost in his delusions? A glance to the clock above the door showed he'd overstayed closing by more than twenty minutes.Fuck.
He was just contemplating the wards and how to reset them after he'd exited - when a loud, low moan pierced through the silence in the shop. Hand halfway to the door, Draco froze.

Summary
"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."
(From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence)This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Summary
Seven years after the war, the Lifetime Achievement Gala for Harry Potter is being held. Draco Malfoy certainly didn't choose the burgundy tux for a certain Gryffindor witch. Definitely not. But now they're stuck at the same table, and it's getting harder to deny his feelings. Especially with her draped in Slytherin green and showing more skin than is good for his composure.
Or a fic in which Pansy and Ginny get tired of two idiots in love being...well, idiots in love, and take matters into their own hands.
