Summary
There are many moments in our lives that add up to define who we become, and some things that we simply are with or without any choice in the matter. Getting to Platform 9 3/4 by himself and finding a toad roaming the train, one small moment among thousands, really should not matter all that much in the grand scheme of things… Except it does.

Or, Harry never meets Ron on the the train to Hogwarts and goes to Slytherin instead. This changes everything that it can.

Summary
After the war, Hermione Granger rebuilds her life quietly: running a small apothecary called Sage at Diagon Alley, healing where she can, and researching impossible cures in the hope of repairing the damage the war left behind. Draco Malfoy, now a single father determined to break the legacy he inherited, is doing his best to raise Scorpius and stay far from the remnants of his past as an auror in France.
But when a long-buried blood curse resurfaces, Scorpius becomes its next target. Meanwhile, scattered whispers of Antonin Dolohov’s return begin to stir in Britain, pulling dark forces out of dormancy and threatening to reignite a war that never fully died: it's time for the Malfoys to come back home.
Driven together by necessity, Hermione and Draco enter a reluctant partnership to decipher the curse, develop a cure, and protect the boy caught at the heart of it. What begins as obligation becomes trust; what begins as fear becomes tenderness; what begins as survival slowly, inevitably, becomes love.
A slow burn Dramione about healing, second chances, found family, dangerous research, and the quiet miracle of choosing someone even when the world tries to tear you back into who you used to be.

Summary
Draco Malfoy is not, necessarily, a good guy. Maybe he could have been, once, but he chose differently. Some (everyone) might say he chose wrong.
After years in Azkaban and an extended house arrest sentence, he is released unto a world that somehow has only gotten worse while he was away… and rather than fix it, he falls right into step.
Or does he?

Summary
“Um, here. Should be good, brewed them myself just in August before start of term”
“You still brew?”
“Of course, have to stay busy somehow on house arrest.”
Hermione held out her hand as his eyes met hers. Then he did something Hermione would never forget.
Malfoy grabbed her hand and placed the vials in her palm.
Green sparks behind her eyes again, her magic sung for a solid ten seconds before he released her hand.
Malfoy was staring at her, in his eyes, the clearest she had ever seen them, was a sense of awe.
Had he felt that as well?
