    Alt-History: Tom Riddle died young

    Magical Britain enjoyed peace… and grew dangerously complacent. Now magic itself is failing: ley lines stutter, wards fall, pillars of The Light act in ways that defy logic and compassion.

    Hermione Granger dives into the crisis with brilliance and stubborn hope, aided by two very different wizards:

    Master Snape: incisive, emotionally scarred, a mind running in the same fast, intricate patterns as hers.
    Lord Prince: aristocratic, unnervingly composed, steps in at key moments, knows more than he reveals.

    Each speaks to her magic. Each sees a different part of her. Each feels uncannily familiar.

    What she doesn’t know is…

    They’re the same wizard.

    Splintered by glamours, Occlusion, and necessity, Severus has lived two lonely half-lives for so long he no longer knows which is real. Prince offers power; Snape offers purpose. Severus is drawn to a witch whose magic calls to his.

    As Britain unravels, a truth emerges:

    To save magic and stand beside the witch who loves every tattered part of him…
    Severus must do what he’s never dared…

    Summary

    There are some great quick-and-dirty guides to HTML on A03. This is not one of them - it is a comprehensive guide

    It's now 2025, a decade later. A03 supports some new HTML and and we're all walking around reading fic on supercomputers that fit in a jean pocket. It was time to update.

    The previous three chapters have been divided into smaller concepts. Each tag continues to have - at a minimum - a link to the w3schools page about it (so you can learn more), a code example, and the result of the code example. Most tags have their attributes, things like [src] or [title], listed and examples of how using the attributes modify the tags.

    There's a chapter on Bad Ideas, including how some of the archive's default CSS is available to you to format your work (users can't turn that off by hiding a workskin!)

    Oh. And I added a bunny army. You could learn how to add one too.

    Summary

    When Hermione Granger began publishing potions research under the pseudonym Harmony Grey at thirteen, she never expected to captivate the mind of Severus Snape, one of the most enigmatic figures in the field. What begins as an anonymous exchange of ideas grows into something far more profound—a connection built on intellect, ambition, and an understanding neither of them can quite name. But ambition is a double-edged sword, and the closer Hermione comes to realizing her full potential, the more fragile her carefully constructed world becomes. Secrets are powerful things, and when they begin to unravel, so do the lines between past and present, between mentor and protégé, between what is forbidden and what is inevitable.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger understands being unwanted. The unwanted child conceived by two busy people at the height of their careers and shunted off on the first person they can find, Hermione spends the year leading up to her First Year at Hogwarts being hidden away and raised by a majority of the Hogwarts staff right under Dumbledore's nose.
    Stumbling across the Potions classroom early on, she develops a kinship to Professor Snape. Throughout her first few years at Hogwarts, whenever she is on the outs with Harry and Ron for one reason or another she often times retreats to the Potions lab to find peace and safety in a school where she otherwise feels utterly alone most of the time, even amongst the people she considers friends.
    At the end of fourth year she, Ginny, and Luna stumble through a door on the 7th floor that dumps them 20 years back in time to spring 1975, when the Mauraders ruled the school. Hermione again finds comfort in Severus, though now they are the same age and in the same house. She, Ginny, and Luna find themselves in a time both oddly the same and at the same time stunningly different from the time they left from and it doesn't take them long to begin to question whether they want to go back at all.

    Summary

In a world where Wizarding Britain is ruled by a renewed Lord Voldemort, the Order is forced undercover and must rely on meagre resources and a precious few spies to help turn the war in their favour. Hermione can’t stay out of this war, but how far will she go to win it? And is she truly alone behind enemy lines?
