Summary
After the war dragged on for years, after Harry Potter died and the world fractured, the Ministry promised peace. Instead, it rewrote the laws, buried the bodies, and sealed the records.
Draco Malfoy—silent, wandless, and still the most dangerous man in the room—is days away from being erased.
Hermione Granger tried to stay out of it. She really did. She tried to forget the war. She tried to play the part—healer, wife, survivor.
But when she learns the truth, she’s left with one impossible choice: Let them erase him or marry him herself.
He saved her life once upon a time.
Now she’s saving his.OR
How the Ministry tried to kill him, bury him, and take everything he had, but he got a wife instead.

Summary
A romantic dark comedy/nightmare.
Just him and me. And my ghost, his scar, a broken hero, a puppet-master, and a war that was supposed to be over.
(... and prophetic moons, one eyed witches, a death wish, and too many broken promises)

Summary
The war is over. The Dark Lord is dead. But in the shadows of Azkaban, a secret festers.
When an offhand line in the Daily Prophet suggests Draco Malfoy is still imprisoned approaching the five year anniversary of the end of the war, Auror Hermione Granger at the department of Magical Law Enforcement uncovers a truth the Ministry has buried for years: Malfoy was never tried, never convicted and does not seem to exist on record.
Tasked with facilitating the rehabilitation of someone who hates her back into society, it quickly becomes clear to Hermione that something or someone never intended him to escape.

Summary
Four year old Harry Potter has it rough at the Dursleys. Vernon has got ever more brutal as Harry has got older, he lives worse than a neglected house elf. After one particularly brutal beating, Harry’s magic tries to save him, and he unintentionally conjures a patronus charm. This finds its way to one moody potions master- who quickly realises nobody else will do what he has been asked to do. This leaves Severus tasked with pulling them both from the grips of Dumbledore and his intricate plans- whilst finding his way with a troubled little boy who can't help but steal his heart.
(updated regularly from 09/25. This was an old fic I wrote as a teenager, and I have fully re-worked the beginning, allowing me to continue the story. I am still editing the first half if you are reading this, for plot hole patches etc. If you are an old reader, and it isn't quite as you remember it, this is why! Hope you enjoy:) )

Summary
“I’m scared, Cee, I’m not ready to die.”
“I know, I’m not ready to die either.”Cecilia Alderidge, perfect grades, perfect friends, a perfect witch, and perfectly in control… or so she thought. But she has secrets to hide, magic she can’t control, and time is slowly slipping away from her.
Harry Potter, the boy who lived, with allies and enemies around every corner, now he seems destined to be thrown into danger at every turn.
Until September 1993, Harry and Cecilia hardly gave each other a second thought, but soon it seems that their fates are more intertwined than they ever could have know. The magic in their blood can be sniffed out from afar, like smoke in the wind on a starless night. No one is ever truly safe at Hogwarts.
This work follows Cecilia’s story at Hogwarts and heavily revolves around the golden trio with some important original characters, and is a mix of the films and the books.

The war ended in many casualties, and the Ministry fears claims that the new generation of young adults will face a generational depression after their own roles have ended.

Summary
She's not supposed to be here-not this late, not this loud, and definitely not in Gryffindor.
The Crouch family is ancient, noble, and obsessed with tradition.
Emily? Not so much.
She arrives at Hogwarts four years behind, cloaked in secrets and wielding a mysterious magic no one understands. From sneaking into the Forbidden Forest to chasing chaos with a more haunted Professor Fig, Emily is anything but a typical Crouch.
She's a rule-breaker, a people-pleaser, and-worst of all-a Gryffindor.

A Hogwarts Legacy retelling that deepens familiar characters, sharpens the stakes, and reimagines the story through the eyes of someone who was never supposed to be part of it.

Summary
Mike pulled away, his eyes flitting across Will’s face—his tear-stained cheeks and red eyes—and he didn’t even have a moment’s hesitation before he said, “Then… we’ll go crazy together.”
Will’s mouth quirked even as his eyes welled with tears once again. “Yeah? Crazy together?”
Mike chuckled through the lump in his own throat. “Yeah. You’re not facing this alone, Will."
With Will’s name broadcasted in the Daily Prophet as the new generation’s very own Boy-Who-Lived, he faces new challenges in his Second Year of Hogwarts.
Another more imminent threat still lingers, even despite the Veil’s connection to the World of the Living closed, and Will must continue to tread very carefully like Professor Morganach originally forewarned.
But the question follows:
Will anyone notice the danger brewing on Will’s doorstep before it’s too late?

Summary
“Thanks,” Harry muttered. He stopped pacing and leaned both hands on the table, breathing hard. “And it’s not even like there’s proof. Just... whispers. A sighting near a village called Ashwick Vale. A cursed manuscript in Knockturn. A dark artifact that ‘felt familiar.’ Honestly, I’d like to see anyone else step up for once.”
“Of course it’s me,” Harry muttered again, pacing the sitting room like a storm cloud in motion. “Not Kingsley. Not the whole damn Department. Me.”
Years after the war, whispers begin to surface, dark magic in a quiet village, a shadow from the past that refuses to fade.
Harry Potter, now the Ministry’s top Auror, is sent to investigate. His search leads him to Ashwick Vale, where the view was breathtaking, the villagers warm-hearted, and the local headmaster more interesting than Harry expected.Marvolo Gaunt is brilliant, composed, and oddly charming. He runs a magical school tucked between the hills and seems to know Harry better than he should.
The village is peaceful and beautiful.
And the longer Harry stays, the harder it is to remember why he came in the first place.
