the avidity of youth; the naïveté of you by galaxy_skies for jiexhua

Summary
Hermione spends her nights in the deserted library because the ghosts don’t bother her there.
No one died defending books. No one was slaughtered under a table. Blood and ink did not run red and black across the floor.
The rules are bent and broken for the Eighth Years. They do not need to go to bed at a reasonable time; they do not need to attend class; they do not need to hand in homework. She can stay bent over books until the sunrise dapples across the pages; she can stay staring at the unread words until the moon rises once more and the day has wilted away behind her.
She does not have peace, but she has quiet, and sometimes that is enough.

Summary
If there’s one thing Hermione Granger is good at, it’s using magic to fix her problems. And this time, her problem is sex.
Luckily, she has the perfect solution: a locket enchanted with the Patented Daydream Charm. Whenever she opens it, she’ll find herself in Dreamland, where she can live out all her filthiest fantasies risk-free.
The magic is a bit tricky, though. For some reason, Malfoy keeps showing up there with her. Thank goodness it’s only an illusion—if that was really him, she would never live it down.
Meanwhile, Draco is determined to figure out who the fuck is cursing him to suffer through highly realistic, erotic hallucinations of his secret childhood crush. When he finds the culprit, there will be hell to pay.

Summary
“Glee was the last thing she felt staring into the empty eyes that should have been a bright grey. His face had always looked pointed and sharp, but now that gave way to gauntness. His hair, which he had been so particular about in school, hung long and limp. It reminded her of how his father had looked in his mugshot. How he had wanted to be just like his father growing up. And now he was, maybe more than ever.
A ghost.”After doing more than her fair share in saving the Wizarding World and bearing the scars of what it cost, Hermione Granger thinks she has earned herself a little respite. But when a charismatic albeit chaotic Theodore Nott convinces her to use an old law to save a dear friend who is about to meet the Dementor’s Kiss, she simply cannot stand by and watch. Follow Hermione as she navigates a world that still believes in blood status, a marriage to save the life of an old enemy and the hurt that comes with surviving.

Summary
“In my humble opinion there’s only three things that men should be and that is bloody, slutty, and pathetic.” And, on a good day, Draco Malfoy can be all three.
When war heroine Hermione Granger and Azkaban-tattooed war criminal Draco Malfoy are forced to wed as part of Shacklebolt’s controversial Reconciliation Act, they openly fight the match and each other—their public brawls breathlessly reported by the press.
Secretly, a deeply traumatized Draco delights in Hermione’s attention and pines for a real marriage with her—even as her forced proximity to the Black family magic irritates the cursed scar Bellatrix left on her arm, reminding her why she can never truly trust or forgive him. Then Hermione discovers that Draco’s blood will soothe the scar . . . and Draco is willing to trade his blood for her body.
(With post-war blood purity politics, black market potioneers, Pansy Parkinson’s career advice, the Malfoys blackmailing Hermione’s Wizengamot opposition, BDE Neville Longbottom hunting Death Eaters, a slutty Theo Nott serving as Draco’s right-hand man, and Crookshanks loose in Malfoy Manor.)

Summary
Malfoy’s hand is unforgiving against her own, squeezing hard enough that it aches. Hermione digs her nails in, knowing the sensitive expanse of his pale skin will be marked for hours.
A fair trade, considering the heavy diamond ring on her finger that feels like a shackle. Her hand and arm still tingle from the binding magic, and she can’t risk looking down at it. She knows if she does, she’ll remember the gold strand that wrapped around her skin, tying them together for the rest of their miserable lives.

Summary
Hermione narrowed her eyes, her lips curving upward, only to freeze entirely when he placed a small, black box at the center of the table. Her smile faded entirely, the small chatter around them completely gone, replaced by the rushing of blood straight to her head.
What in the name of God was that?
(or, Draco Malfoy presents a gift and a small bit of hilarity ensues)

Summary
“What do you want, then? I have to cover the sick ward on the second floor.”
Malfoy put his hands in his pockets. “DMLE is pulling you from the floor for a bit. I’ve come to bring you straight to Robards.”
Hermione’s nostrils flared. “He can’t just do that! I have patients and responsibilities here that I can’t just leave on his whim.”
“I’m just following orders. Better me than McLaggen, yeah? At least I’m nice to look at.”
Hermione crossed her arms. “You can’t make me go. Robards isn’t my boss and I’ve done nothing illegal to require an Auror escort. If he wants to see me so badly, he can schedule a meeting like a normal human being.”
“I have a summons,” Malfoy said. He pulled a piece of parchment from the pocket of his dress robes. The seal of the Office of the Minister of Magic stared back at her. She scowled.
“I hate your entire department.”
“Well, that’s just factually inaccurate, Granger. I have it on good authority that you happen to like me.”
[In which Hermione is brought in to assist the DMLE and her current FWB, Draco, with a peculiar outbreak of dragon-pox] COMPLETE

Summary
“No one can find out,” she murmurs, breath ghosting along his skin. “This is a horrible idea.”
Draco tightens his grip on her waist, reflexive. “No one has to know.”
He doesn’t take the time to analyze the effect her words have on him. Not when he’s got a leg pressed between hers and she’s grinding against his thigh. Her words, her shame—they don’t matter.
What matters is this: whenever he gets close enough to Hermione Granger, the ringing in his head stops. He can breathe again, if only for a moment. He knows better than to imbibe, his mother’s voice telling him to never indulge in the riches of the Seelie Court, but he can’t help it.

Summary
The books would paint it as something gloriously tragic. They would say that Draco is a work of art: copper stains on his teeth, wrists thin and carnations knitting his ribs together. A boy hopelessly and deliriously in love.
Perhaps that is true, but so is this - Draco Malfoy is dying and it is Hermione Granger who has led him here.
