    Summary

    Hermione Granger has been holding the Ministry together with precision, exhaustion, and the brittle kind of strength people mistake for stability.
    When the MIS-3 Panel decides she looks “unsteady,” the next step is intervention — polite wording for a trap she can’t afford to fall into.

    Lucius Malfoy is the last person she should trust.
    He’s also the only one who sees exactly how close the net is tightening.

    What begins as uneasy cooperation settles into something sharper: late-night strategy, quiet rooms, a dangerous kind of honesty, and two people who refuse to let the world break them the way it intends.

     

    “I don’t want your martyrdom either,” she said.
    “I am not offering martyrdom.”
    A ghost of that humourless smile again.
    “I am offering what I have always been very good at: being the monster other monsters fear.”

    Summary

    In another world, Harry Potter was spared. Raised by a Pureblood guardian in Lord Voldemort's Britain, he isn't special and enters his seventh year wanting nothing more than to be allowed to go into Arithmancy research and keep his head down.

    But after a chance encounter with a man who later arrives at Hogwarts on behalf of the Ministry, to evaluate the seventh-year students for potential, it looks like it may not be so simple.

    Marvolo Gaunt seems to have his eye on Harry. The trouble is, Harry has no idea why.

    Summary

    Due to a transporter accident, Garak is switched with his counterpart from another universe. A universe where the wormhole doesn't exist, no one has ever heard the word "Dominion", and Garak was never exiled from Cardassia. Instead, he's a Legate. And happily married to one Mr. Julian Garak.

    Suffice to say, the Alternate Garak takes the transition about as well as he can. The supposedly straight as an arrow Dr. Julian Bashir...not so much.

    Summary

    My take on what season five could have looked like, except I'm not a coward like Brannon Braga and Rick Berman. Also I blatantly ignore some established canon.


    “The Imperial Guard and Starfleet have been in talks,” continued Shran. “I’m sure you know of them. They recently decided that during this time of heightened tension, there should be a liaison of sorts, aboard a Starfleet vessel. Since I have a history of working well with humans, Starfleet requested me. The Imperial Guard was happy to meet their request.”

    “I see,” said Jon, which vessel would Shran be aboard? He couldn’t help thinking that they would stop accidentally running into each other if he was on a different Starfleet vessel. “What ship will they put you on?”

    Shran's antennae curled in slightly and he stared at Jon, his face incredulous. Jon glanced at T’Pol who had her lips pursed and an eyebrow raised. Jon frowned, what- oh!

    “Of course,” he said. “You’ll be serving on Enterprise.”

    “If you’ll have me, pinkskin,” said Shran, his smile back in place.

    Summary

    His attention skipped passed the students and moved to the politicians’ pavilion. His gaze locked with crimson, and he nearly faltered under the sheer hunger in those eyes.

    It unnerved him how fixated the man was on his dirtied, exhausted figure.

    But what troubled him more was the slight smirk he could make out on the man’s lips. It was almost pleased.

    On the night of the attack, Lily managed to escape with her infant son, but at the cost of her husband’s life. Distraught and distrusting of her friends, she fled to France with Harry, to raise him away from the corruption in Britain and the rising influence of the Dark Lord. She trains him to the best of her abilities, shaping him into a dangerous, intelligent and powerful wizard.

    But when Britain re-establishes the Triwizard Tournament, and Harry, now known as Hadrian, is forced to return to his once-home, he finds himself questioning whether he really wants to kill the Dark Lord. Voldemort finds an unexpected challenge in the child, and as his intrigue and amusement grows, so too does the desire to possess the spark in those defiant green eyes.
