    Summary

    When a form of ancient, near-forgotten magic saves her from meeting her tragic destiny, Hermione Granger finds herself navigating the forties with one goal in mind: to definitely destroy the cause of her ills once and for all. But when strange, fragmented memories, soaked in old magic, let her glimpse a lost, unreachable past, things turn out to be more complex than she initially thought. The closer she gets to the truth, the harder it becomes to carry out the one thing she came to do.

    A/N: You don’t need to know anything about Hogwarts Legacy to enjoy this story. All essential elements are explained within the fic. Readers familiar with the game may notice a few subtle references sprinkled throughout. Not required, but fun to spot.

    Summary

    The war is lost.
    The only way to fix it? Send Hermione Granger back to fifth year. Alone.

    She has one job: change the future.
    Easy, if her allies weren’t a half-traumatized Harry Potter and an infuriating Draco Malfoy who makes mind magic feel like foreplay.

    Their uneasy alliance teeters between reluctant cooperation and outright disaster, especially as Hermione keeps accidentally dragging a handful of Slytherins into her half-formed plans and future-saving schemes. Now she has to keep pace with their sharp tongues, relentless banter, an inappropriate amount of casual flirting, and the very real risk of falling for the blonde a second time around.

    She remembers the future Draco who fought beside her in the war.
    This one? Wants to hex her on sight.
    (He’ll get over it.)
    Eventually.

    Some things are worth rewriting time for.
    Others come back to rewrite /you/.

    Tom couldn't keep his eyes off her. The witch had secrets, an enigma that he couldn't wrap his head around. He found himself fixated. Obsessed. He wanted to trap the lion in a cage and uncover everything she kept hidden.
