    Red.

    Dress, hair, mouth. Red like a stop sign you blow through on purpose.

    “Mark.”

    He doesn’t look up. “No.”

    “No, what?”

    “Whatever this is.”

    Summary

    Hermione Granger was a problem.
    It all but seemed as if Draco had set all his grudges and prejudices aside and welcomingly spent his time with that witch.

    Well, Lucius had not.
    He was only tolerating her presence in the Manor for the sake of his son.
    But what was he getting out of it?
    He was owed something.
    Yet, he did not get any piece of the cake.
    And that simply would not do.

     

    Or:

    Draco and Hermione study for their final exams at the Manor and Lucius bloody loathes her.

    Mind the tags!

    Summary

    What if, when Petunia Dursley found a little boy on her front doorstep, she took him in? Not into the cupboard under the stairs, not into a twisted childhood of tarnished worth and neglect—what if she took him in?

    Petunia was jealous, selfish and vicious. We will not pretend she wasn’t. She looked at that boy on her doorstep and thought about her Dudders, barely a month older than this boy. She looked at his eyes and her stomach turned over and over. (Severus Snape saved Harry’s life for his eyes. Let’s have Petunia save it despite them).

    Let’s tell a story where Petunia Dursley found a baby boy on her doorstep and hated his eyes—she hated them. She took him in and fed him and changed him and got him his shots, and she hated his eyes up until the day she looked at the boy and saw her nephew, not her sister’s shadow. When Harry was two and Vernon Dursley bought Dudley a toy car and Harry a fast food meal with a toy with parts he could choke on Petunia packed her things and got a divorce.

    Summary

    “You understand, Professor,” Harry began, after a moment, “that I don’t have my N.E.W.T.s. I never even finished seventh year. Between everything, I never had a chance the first time around, and then afterwards there didn’t seem to be much point. Hermione argued for it, of course, but I was so tired of Britain. So technically, I am completely unqualified for the position.”

    “Quite a way to begin an interview, Mr. Potter,” McGonagall said, dryly.

    Or, three years after the war, Harry Potter becomes Hogwarts' newest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

    Summary

    Most of the post-war wizarding world only sees Hermione Granger as the dowdy, prudish, swotty Hogwarts librarian. If they knew what she did in the Restricted Section every Friday, however, they would understand exactly why she was so fond of books.
