"Always got that nose stuck in a book Granger. Ready for our date?" Hermione startles and flips around at the sound of his voice.
"Malfoy? You’re early, I told you I needed to finish this poti-" She flicks her wrist to check the watch resting there and stops short.
"Merlin, I can’t believe I lost track of time like that.." Hermione grimly turns to the unfinished looking substance in the cauldron she’d been slaving over for an hour, and then to her boyfriend with a look of exasperarion. "It’s too pink, and its been stinking up the room. I have no idea how to fix it"
"I’ve never seen a potion defeat you like this. Would you like some help oh mighty bookworm?" Draco teases and steps forward to circle his arm around her waist. She pouts and pushes him back slightly.
"Oh ha ha. I’d love to see you try. Professor Snape only glorfies your Slytherin tush. Unfortunately the rest of us belong on his very long list of people he’ll send to detention over breathing too loud."
"Only Snape? Don’t you also glorify my tush?" Malfoy juts out his lip and tightens his grip around her. She snorts and pulls her arms around his shoulders in defeat, because of course he would only hear the part where she talks about his ass.
"Give me five more mi-" she starts to say.
"Nope, you need at least another hour to rectify that aboniation. The frog tongue is whats giving off that lovely fragrance by the way." he says and accentuates this point by wrinkling his nose.
"Oh so it’s not the sassy ferret in front of me insulting my potioneering skills?" she deadpans.
"Touché bookworm"
"I try" she grins.

WAYS TO HELP PALESTINE
EDUCATE YOURSELF
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was their fifth year in Hogwarts.
YN and Draco have a secret relationship, no one knows about their relationship even their closest friends and family. People just assume they are best friends who are very affectionate and have physical touch as a love language.
They both trust each other dearly and once promised to tell anything and not keep any secret from one another. YN has told Draco about how bullshit it was for Professor Umbridge to not let them learn about DADA and spells.
I mean how can the students will defend themselves if they are in dangerous situations?
Her reason was that there would be no such things since we are safe and sound here, in Hogwarts but are they really safe there?
One day, YN learned about Dumbledore's Army which is led by none other than Harry Potter and his friends, Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley. YN was intrigued by this and just as her luck, she saw Granger walking into the library, maybe she was looking for a new book, thought YN. 
She walked up to Granger, who was indeed looking for a new book about spells and DADA. YN tapped on Granger's shoulder and she was stunned to see it was YN who tapped it. Number one, YN herself is a Slytherin, number two she is friends with Malfoy and the others. What could she want from her? A Gryffindor and a muggle-born herself?
Granger gave a weird look at YN and she cleared her throat before saying "I heard about the Dumbledore's Army", just as Granger heard that, her face changed and quickly put on a blank expression not wanting YN to know about it being a real thing.
"I'm not sure what are you talking about YLN" lied Granger.
YN scoffed, "I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talking about" she said and folded her arm, feeling impatient in her body.
"Look, I know you don't trust me but I'm just like you guys well not really obviously. Nonetheless, I do think Umbridge is full of rubbish for not wanting us to learn more about DADA and spells. I want to learn more about it you know, for my safety, just in case" added YN.
"I still don't believe you but if you really really want to join, you have to write down your name on the list" Hermione says attempting to make her back off from joining. 
But instead of backing off YN agreed to write down her name, which surprised the bushy brown-haired girl.
"List that you might jinx? Just in case I told the pink bitch? Yeah sure" YN was joking of course but little does she know that Granger does jinxed it.
After the dinner and the meeting at the room of requirement, YN and Draco are walking to his room for cuddling and having a conversation. They haven't seen and talked to each other at all for a day. Draco missed her so he thought it would be nice for them to get cosy and chit-chat with her. Since tomorrow is Saturday there will be no problem for them to sleep late.
"So how was your day, love? " he asked as he tucked in YN's hair behind her ear.
"It was fine except I haven't seen nor talked to you at all today" she answered.
"Are you saying that you miss me YLN" teased Draco.
"No, I didn't say that" she rolled her eyes.
"I missed you as well love, I really looking forward to this cuddle session" he said and pecked her lip.
YN smiled before she changed her position and sat straight, "So you know how we promised not to keep any secrets from each other" said YN.
"Yes, what? Are you going to tell me how handsome I am? That is not a secret darling, everyone knows that " Draco laughed at his own joke.
"You are so full of yourself" YN responded trying to hide her smile. "Really? I thought it was you" Draco smirked. "Merlin, Draco!" YN's face is now as red as a tomato.
He chuckled, amused by YN's reaction.
"So what is this secret about? Why are you suddenly bringing it up?" Draco asks as he is curious about what is she going to tell him.
"Um don't get mad" she said before Draco cut her off.
"I'm not unless you're saying that you cheating on me then, I'll think about it" YN's heart broke a little, how could he think something like that?
They've been together for nine months now, "How could you think such things like that" she said more in a questionable tone. "I mean who knows, right?" and that makes YN even more sad. Not once had she ever thought about leaving Draco let alone cheat.
"Look Draco, as long as I'm here. You will always have someone who loves and is proud of you, alright? I'm not going to cheat on you, you're Draco Malfoy for Salazar's sake! You are the most amazing, loving and caring boyfriend I could ever ask for" YN reassured him.
"Even though you're a tad annoying I still love you, always have and always will" added YN as she laughs.
"Way to make your boyfriend feel good, sweetheart" Draco replied sarcastically but he knew what YN meant.
YN laughed at his comment.
Once her laughter was a bit calm she finally started to tell him about Dumbledore's Army.
"It's not about any of that, it's just that" YN stopped, feeling nervous take over her body. "Go on" Draco encouraged her to speak. "It just, you know about Dumbledore's Army? I joined them. But before you get mad, it was kind of my decision. I just thought you should know about me joining them so you won't get mad if we ever get caught but can you promise me one thing? Do not tell Umbridge about you know this. I kind of got myself jinxed by Granger when I wrote my name on the list for joining" YN explained everything.
Draco stayed silent because he was too speechless to speak. After all, that is a lot to take in and process.
"Say something" YN whispered.
"Well, I'm kind of surprised that's all. Do what you think is the best for you, I won't stop you from all of this and yes I promise I won't tell her and the squads about any of this. I'll just pretend that I never hear any of this" he said smiling and that made YN happy so she drowned him with a lot of kisses.
"Thank you, sweetheart, for not getting mad and supporting my decision about it" YN said, grateful that Draco understood her.
"Of course, isn't that what a hot, handsome, funny, good-looking and smart boyfriend should do for his girlfriend?" YN laughed and cuddled herself closer to his chest.
The couple continued talking about a lot of things, from talking about school to talking about the future to talking about where they wanted to live after getting married, how to decorate the house, how many kids they wanted in the future and what to name them to fall asleep while cuddling. Draco's arms were around YN's waist, one of her hands on his chest and the other one on his blonde hair.
Tumblr media
It has been a month since YN joined the army and she's been making a lot of new friends and people started to take a liking to YN. Who knows if Slytherin can be a nice person?
They all have been practising more and more, Harry Potter dares to say if he was a teacher, his favourite student might be YN because of how excellent and fast learner she is. Today, just like other days, they meet up at the room of requirements. They will be practising the Patronus charm.
People said it was a hard spell to cast because you need happy memories to cast the spell. YN thought it was easy for her, all she had to do was think of Draco Malfoy and there it goes, her Patronus. Oh boy, she was wrong. It was quite challenging for her to get the correct hand movement, that is until she finally did it.
Her Patronus was a ferret, YN chuckled to herself. Everyone saw her Patronus and asked if it was Draco whom she thinking of and she nodded as her answer.
Suddenly there is a loud thud and soon the room is destroyed because of the hard thrust from the outside of the room. Some people thought it was an earthquake but as the room is exposed she saw Mr Filch and The Inquisitorial Squad along with Professor Umbridge.
YN saw Parkinson holding Marietta Edgecombe, Cho Chang's friend. The snitch.
How could she tell them?  YN thought. 
"I'm so sorry guys, I tried to keep it but they use the Veritaserum on me" she lied straight to their faces. 
Draco and YN had eye contact and his eyes said I'm sorry while hers said It's fine. She knows Draco wouldn't tell them about it since he did promise her about it and if he did tell them, why so late? why not sooner when she first told him?
It is because he wanted YN to be safe. Umbridge saw YN and tsk-ed her " How dare you YLN, you joined them instead of my squad" she said disappointed, like YN would actually care about it. Draco grabbed YN, not too harsh. He put on a fake angry face to YN not wanting people to think something suspicious about him.
YN knew he was faking his anger, she caught his smile when he grabbed her to him. She can't wait to tell him about her Patronus being a ferret.

“They’re quite odd, aren’t they?” 
Abraxas is snickering when he says it. He’s just loud enough to grate - nothing new - but in what should be the quiet sanctity of the library, his tone sufficiently pulls Tom from his reading. 
His eyes lock on Abraxas across from him and flick to the ‘they’ in question. 
And, of course, it’s the Grangers. 
Since entering the magical community, Tom has learned a thing or two about their societal norms. An interesting component being that it is surprisingly challenging to be seen as ‘odd’ here. A wixen can be any number of things: lazy, stupid, poor, muggle - the list goes on, but ‘odd’ is a category used sparingly when directed towards each other. Much unlike the muggles Tom has known and grown his whole life around. 
He was always seen as odd by them - freakish - and continues to be whenever he returns to the orphanage for summer. So he doesn’t much care for the word. 
Besides, if anything, the Grangers aren't even worth gawking over and snickering about. Their worst can be summed up to anti-socialistic, codependent, and exclusionary behaviours - probably a trauma response from the war. They clearly have no interest in playing house with their dormmates or the rest of the school, so why bother?
They are sitting beneath the second-story stair landing where the elves have managed to shove one last table. It’s one of the more tucked away and private places on this level — a place Tom would not consider and will not consider; he needs to be visible, available — and they’ve claimed it like it’s never belonged to anyone else. Like it was placed there just for them. Their ease of acclimation to Hogwarts as a whole has certainly raised some eyebrows, yet still, he isn’t concerned. 
He had also known Hogwarts was his home the moment he had stepped foot in it, after all. He is not so foolish as to believe himself an outlier.
Hermione Granger’s hands are waving wildly, turning in circles and gesturing in a vague sphere-like shape. She’s talking aloud - not that Tom, or anyone else, can hear it - and doesn’t seem to like what she’s saying, given the harsh line between her brows. Ronald Granger is sitting in front of her and starts shaking his head. He says something and reaches across the table to take her wrists — expands them — the sphere becomes an oval.
Harry Granger sits beside them pensive, with his head down and reading carefully from a book in his hands. He starts to turn the page but pauses; he frowns and looks up.
He looks right at Tom.
Granger blinks once, slowly. He mouths something, but it’s not directed towards Tom because his siblings turn to look at him. It only lasts a moment before they suddenly turn around to stare at Tom as well, their eyes wide and alarmed. 
Tom watches on as Harry Granger slouches - maybe sighs? He shakes his head and palms his face in something like dismay. It doesn't take a legilimens to read his lips now—
“You are both such idiots.” He says.
The corner of Tom’s lips curl. It’s possibly a smile. He’ll never call it that out loud.
“Very,” he finally replies to Abraxas.

Housewife
——————
Pairing: Hermione Granger x Fem!Reader
WARNING: Suggestion of Smut
——————
Third Person P.O.V:
Y/n sat in the apartment she shared with her longtime girlfriend, Hermione. It was late into the afternoon, the sun was setting in the window as Y/n flipped through today's newspaper.
She was waiting for her lover to return home from work. The worst part of the day in her mind.
Y/n hated that they both got off work a different times, usually Hermione being the one to almost stay into the night most days.
Yet, she didn't blame her.
Being a Professor at Hogwarts was hard work, and her girlfriend had always been an organized overachiever.
One of her friends had asked is she thought Hermione had been sneaking around on her, which caused Y/n to laugh.
Hermione had no time to be sneaking around, and when she did, she was always snuggled up in bed with her.
"Where is that girl?" Y/n whined softly as she put the paper on the table and stood up.
Y/n thought a moment on what to do.
Cook dinner?
Watch a movie?
Read a book?
Then she got an idea.
Walking to their bedroom, she wasn't surprised to find old man Crookshanks taking a nap on their bed.
He meowed softly at her arrival into the room, earning himself a kiss on the head and pet down his body as Y/n walked past him.
"Now, where is that list..." Y/n muttered as she scanned the bulletin board above Hermione's desk.
Her girlfriend had a list of all the books she had her eye on in the Diagonally Bookstore, which was a lot.
Thankfully, Y/n had saved more than enough this month in her own bank account, and was happy to spend it on her favorite person.
They're that couple that has their own bank accounts, but shares one as well.
Which means, secret gifts!
"Ah! There it is!" Y/n says as she spots the paper pinned in the corner, carefully taking it down, she smiled at the contents on it.
A few books she heard about, and some she had no idea, but Hermione has always enjoyed the barley known ones.
"Crook, I'm headed out. I'll be back in an hour or so!" Y/n says as she walked past him again, giving a scratch behind his ears as she went by.
She stopped in the middle of the living room, and looked around for a pen an paper.
In case Hermione came home while she was gone, she had better leave a note.
She doesn't need her worrywart girlfriend stressing over her unusual absence.
Quickly, she wrote down that she had gone on an errand and would be back soon. She left it somewhere it would be found, and soon found herself out the door.
——————
Hermione did end up arriving home twenty minutes later, very surprised to find it unusually quiet.
"My love? Are you here?" She calls out, but only heard the happy meows of her cat she he ran to her.
"Hi Crooky" Hermione giggled as she bent down and picked him up into her arms. She easily kicked off her heels and walked into the living.
"Where is your other mother?" She asks the cat, but he just continues to purr happily.
On the coffee table, did she spy a folded up paper that had the words 'Read Me'. Hermione took a seat on the couch and placed Crookshanks beside her, much to his dismay.
When she opened the letter and read the contents inside, she let an unhappy sigh leave her lips.
She didn't like not being places with her Y/n, even at work. Sometimes she regretted taking such a time consuming job, wishing that she had just become a independent researcher.
Yet, Y/n always reminded her that it's not how much time you spend with someone, it's how you'd spent it.
Still, she missed being home with her family.
Hermione hated the thought of what life would be like if they got married, or randomly decided to have children in the future.
Being the spouse or mom that was always working, basically missing out on every milestone in her life.
Now, these thoughts have been ongoing theme for the brunette, ever since a few months ago.
Hermione Granger, forgot their ten year anniversary.
Y/n didn't mind, she honestly forgot about it as well with their busy schedules.
Oh, but when Hermione had realized halfway through a class...TWO days later.
All emotional hell broke loose.
She basically had begged Dumbledore to let her leave early, which he was going to allow anyways, but seeing the desperation in her eyes told him that she had messed up big time.
Hermione had raced to Diagonally, buying everything she knew her girlfriend had been eyeing the last year.
When she arrived home with everything and began setting up, she had been in such a frantic state that she didn't realize how much time had gone by.
She was only altered when she heard the front door close and a confused Y/n walk into a beautiful gift mountain.
Poor Y/n, she thought only one of two things.
1. Someone died.
Or-
2. Hermione was breaking up with her in an extravagant way.
Then when Hermione began to cry and apologize for forgetting their anniversary, Y/n sorta chuckled and gave her a hug.
"Hopefully you and I will have many more anniversaries to come, so we'll just ignore this one" she had whispered in her lovers ear.
Hermione still apologized and asked if she could do one more thing to make it up to her.
You can probably guess where their night ended up, and you could also guess that she had asked for another day off.
Of course, they stayed in bed the whole time.
Anyways, Hermione didn't like the distance.
She didn't like the late nights.
And she especially hated the lack of time together.
So, she is going to propose an idea to Y/n. One that was definitely going to shock her at the sudden want for change in Hermione's professional career.
Hermiones eyes shift over to the front door as it opened with a soft huff from her favorite person.
"Are you home 'Mione?"
She began to grin when she heard the nickname, and stood up.
"In here, where did you...whoa what's with all the bags?" Hermione asks as she watch her girlfriend place two large bags onto the floor and rotate her shoulders with a pained expression.
"Actually, they're for you" Y/n says as she stepped over the gifts and gave the curly brunette a welcomed kiss.
"For me?" Hermione whispers when they break away, earning a hum as Y/n sat down next to Crookshanks.
Hermione pushed the cat to the end of the couch, taking the space next to her significant other.
She summoned her wand, and mumbles a soft 'Accio', watching as it slowly floated to the space in front of her.
Quickly did her eyes enlarge when she realized what was contained inside. Hermione gasped when she pulled out the different books she had been dying to get her hands on.
"Where did you get these?" She asks as she turned towards her girlfriends who was just watching her with a soft smile.
"I'm not telling my secrets" she jokes, obviously she had gotten them from the bookstore, since the tote bags they were in held the stores logo.
"My love, this is to much!" Hermione expressed as she began to put the book back in the bag, hoping that she could get her girlfriends money back.
"Oh, would you stop that!" Y/n laughed as she wrapped her arms around Hermione pulled her onto the couch the with her.
Hermione chuckled as she turned into her stomach, giving a loving smile at the women in front of her.
"Thank you my lovely, you spoil me rotten with your affection" Hermione mumbles as she pressed a few kissed onto Y/n's lips.
"I'd rather it be me than someone else making you smile" Y/n whispers back as she chased after another kiss.
Of course, their kisses always seemed to become desperate when they get this close.
But, Hermione still had to talk to her.
"As much as I love our make out sessions, I need to tell you some... interesting news" Hermione says as she sat back onto the couch, making sure not to squish her cat.
Y/n raised an eyebrow with intrigue as she sat up as well.
"Oh? Gossip? Did McGonagall finally punch a student?" She asks, making Hermione chuckle.
"No sadly, but it has to do with work" she says as she suddenly took a deep breath.
Y/n could tell that what she was about to say was serious, and it made her reasonably nervous.
"I want to become a housewife"
Y/n's eyebrows raised in surprise.
That wasn't what she was expecting.
Then she began to laugh, which made Hermione pout.
"This isn't a joke! I'm serious!" She sighs as she watched Y/n snort softly.
"I'm sorry beautiful, but it's hard to imagine 'Career Driven Hermione' as a housewife" she explains as she grinned up at her.
"Also, you can't call yourself a housewife" Y/n states, and the former Gryffindor takes a little offense.
"And why not?"
"We're not married"
Hermione rolled her eyes and leaned onto the backrest, crossing her arms and legs.
"That wouldn't be a problem if you would just pop the question already" she mumbles and Y/n smiles in return.
"You said you wanted to build your career!" Y/n defends as Hermione turned to her with a playful glare.
"Well, I want to be a housewife now...so get a move on" She replies, causing Y/n to laugh as she ran her fingers through her hair.
"Before we start planning a wedding, why don't you explain to me why this has come up?" Y/n asks as she scooted closer to Hermione and smiled at her as she wrapped an arm around her shoulders.
Hermione rested her head onto her lovers shoulder blade, and gave a quiet sigh.
"You know I hate that we barley see each other" she whispers, which makes Y/n frown.
"I know, but don't you like being a professor?" She asks as she kissed Hermione's head.
"I do! I did? I honestly only know that I hate being apart from you so much" Hermione expresses as she looked up at Y/n, who kissed her forehead in return.
"Well, if you truly don't enjoy being a teacher anymore...then why don't you become a freelance researcher? I know you've talked about it in the past" Y/n asks and Hermione smiled.
"You think I can discover something that could help the wizarding world?" She asks and Y/n chuckles.
"My sweet, you'll do more than just help us" Y/n says, causing them both to quietly laugh together.
They sat in silence for a while, enjoying each other's company as the night sky greeted the dark space.
"I'll do it"
Y/n hummed and kissed her head again.
"Then I back you a hundred percent" she whispered into Hermione's hair.
"So...where's my ring?" She asks, making Y/n laugh.
"Are you still going to be a part time housewife?" Y/n asks as she felt Hermione's hand land on her thigh.
"Obviously, only if you take my last name" she asks and Y/n hums.
"Fine, but only if you finally cave and get a French maid outfit" She responds, causing Hermione to cackle loudly.
"What is your fascination with that cliché?" She asks and Y/n shrugged her shoulders, making Hermione's head bounce.
"Ever since we rewatched 'Clue', I've been imagining you in Yvette's costume" Y/n admits, making Hermione chuckle some more as she felt her lovers hand caress her hip.
"Fine, deal"
Silence then came over the room.
"Did we just agree to get married?" Y/n asks and Hermione hums.
"Yep"
"Should we celebrate?"
"I know where this is going. You're thinking about me in that costume, aren't you?"
"Yep. Take off your pants my favorite sexy British maid."
Laughter and touches enveloped the dark living room as Crookshank ran for safety.
Poor Crook.

Tumblr media
IT WAS A SATURDAY MORNING LIKE ANY OTHER, the many hallways in the castle were filled with only a few students roaming them unlike at the start of the year. some students were sat in the great hall whilst others were lingering near their common room. y/n was sat across from hermione both their noses deep in the story of the book infront of them. the library was quite relaxing on cold days like these. although it may have looked like y/n had her entire attention dedicated to the book infront of her she couldn't stop thinking about how quickly the yule ball was approaching. she was still left without a date whilst most had already chosen someone or got chosen. even hermione had left her to sorrow alone in the search for a dance partner. it wasn't like y/n wasn't asked, actually she was asked quite a few times but declined all of them waiting for that one boy.
she shouldn't rely on a boy she knew that but what could she do she was head over heels for her bestfriend. and almost like the blonde could hear her thoughts from the other side of the castle, he made his way up to her as she was walking back from the library, a book tightly in her grasp.
„l/n“ draco spoke making the girl turn around to see him not far behind her. she smiled at the sight of her friend as the conversations they shared always brought her joy.
„malfoy“ she spoke turning her head back as he walked beside her now. the curiosity inside her was wondering about what he would want or need.
„i was wondering if you could accompany me to the yule ball?“ she looked at him as if she didn’t hear him correctly. the girl couldn’t believe what the boy had just asked. she hid the shock behind a proud her smirk thinking of what she should say next.
„and why should i go with you?“ she said stopping in the middle of the corridor now giving her full attention.
„well, there are many reasons.“ he spoke standing proudly with his hands showed in the front pockets of his black trousers.
„oh really, and what would those be?“ she asked him, intrigued in his answer.
„well, for example because i am draco malfoy, the slytherin prince and you, my dear lady shall accompany me to the ball. and well we both don’t have a date“ draco explained.
draco was right she didn’t have a date and going with draco was what she dreamed of since the ball had first been announced by mcgonagall.
„sure“ she spoke wandering off but not before giving him a slight smirk which he returned.
as she wandered off the smile she had been trying to keep off her face for a while now had won and took place on the lower part of her face.
the next possible day she along with hermione and ginny went to look for dresses to wear in hogsmeade. hermione had found a fluttery dress that had a few different pink shades. ginny picked out a light pink and green one. and y/n found a similar version to hermiones in a light blue color. on the day of the yule ball the three of them did eachothers hair. y/n felt as if she could throw up she was so nervous.
the moment she walked down the stairs she shared eye contact with hermione for reassurance. before looking at draco who had a smirk plastered across his face making the girl smile. as she reached the last step draco made his way over to her putting his arm out for her to hold on which she gladly did.
everything was going great, draco had gotten them drinks, they danced and most importantly laughed together. as y/n and draco made their way of the dance floor, she took a glance over at the table the patil twins were sitting with harry and ron. none of them looked amused which made the girl slightly frown at them locking eyes with harry as he gave her a smile, making her return it.
„you having fun?“ draco spoke making y/n turn her attention to him.
„yeah, you?“ she asked him as a way to keep to the conversation going. the blonde nodded looking at her. as the girl turned her head back towards the table to see all of them gone but hearing yelling outside of the great hall although no one else seemed to mind it. she didn’t want to leave draco by himself but her curiosity took the best of her.
„i‘ll be right back“ y/n spoke to draco laying her hand on his arm. he nodded not seeming to mind it, wrapped up in a conversation with one of his friends. as she made her way out of the hall she was met with a crying hermione in the middle of the stairs.
„oh mione, what happened?“ y/n said not believing the state of her bestfriend, quickly rushing up to her to take her place next to her on the stairs wrapping an arm around her for comfort. hermione tried to explain but instead her friend stopped her and insisted they should leave. „i don’t want to ruin your night“ the crying girl spoke. „it’s okay, i‘ll be right back i‘ll just tell draco that i‘m leaving ok?“ y/n spoke as her friend nodded, tears still streaming down her face.
as y/n went back into the great hall searching for draco she found him cuddling up to astoria greengrass, they were laughing. it felt like his hands were all over her, no longer being able to take what was happening infront of her she left. she felt like crying.
'keep it together y/n, hermione is more important now, you can mourn later' y/n thought. quickly grabbing the gryffindor girl by her hand and walking with her to the gryffindor common room.
after 3 hours of comforting and crying hermione finally felt better and y/n left to go to her dormitory. as she arrived in her dorm she realised no one had been there yet so she switched out of her dress throwing it onto the chair next to her and changing into her comfort clothes. as she laid down in her bed, she was almost drowning in her thoughts.
she realised that draco didn’t seem as if he saw it in romantic way to go to the yule ball with his childhood friend. how could she have been so blind all this time? he didn’t want her, he was only being friendly. that night the h/c haired girl cried herself to sleep. her aching heart swarming her thoughts.
the next day she woke up her eyes slightly swollen from the events of yesterday. she slipped into her h/h robes and tied her up. grabbing her books on the way out along with her wand slipped in the inside pocket of her robes. as she reached snapes classroom she took her place next to hermione, who had a slight frown on her face which changed into a smile when she saw the h/h girl.
„morning“ hermione said, y/n muttering a small 'hi' in return. „how have you been?“ hermione spoke softly, not wanting to raise attention to the conversation.
„what are you talking about?“ y/n asked not knowing what the gryffindor was talking about. „you know because you had to leave“ hermione replied. „good. you?“ y/n continued. „could be better“ hermione answered with a chuckle. making the pair let out a few chuckles but y/n stopped as soon as she saw 'the slytherin prince' who sent a smirk her way which she didn’t return. after class he waited infront of the classroom for her but she ignored him. the entire time she ignored him.
she loves him but her heart ached because of him,
HE HAD LEFT HER BEHIND.

The Artist's Daughter
She was here again.
Draco Lucius Malfoy, First and Only Prince to the kingdom, stayed hidden in the stacks next to a row of tomes dictating the genealogies of the royal families dating back hundreds of years. He had his private tutor to thank for the tiresome task of locating the volume listing the exact ancestor Draco had failed to name correctly in his latest exam. The other day, he’d been here searching for a text that would answer which crops their kingdom specialized in for exports. Ridiculous, really. As if he wouldn’t some day have advisors to do all this research for him.
Then, just like today, he’d seen a girl wandering through the shelves. She hadn’t noticed him, of course. Draco was far too sneaky to be detected by some muggle, which she had to be given her unaware musings as she walked around with her nose buried in a book.
The first time, he’d remained hidden, even going so far as to cast a disillusionment spell on himself. As surprised as he was to see a stranger, he supposed that if they were to wander any of the handful of libraries in the castle, this was the most appropriate one. It was situated on the ground floor not too far from the entrance and ballroom. This is where most of the muggle texts were organized, along with an unfortunate number of historical texts currently pertinent to Draco’s education.
She’d struck him as pretty, albeit in a muggle sort of way. She’d worn a simple lady’s gown in a pale yellow that contrasted with the rich dark curls tumbling down her back. Freckles sprinkled generously across her pale skin, markings his cousins would have glamoured over from birth. If he guessed correctly, they weren’t too far apart in age, perhaps fourteen or fifteen. That was another indicator of her humble breeding—he didn’t recognize her, not from school or from the countless balls and feasts he’d attended growing up. She couldn’t be a noble.
Today, she wore a dress in a lovely sage green with tiny white flowers embroidered along the scoop neckline. Draco imagined her eyes to match the green, or to perhaps blink at him in a hazel hue. He needed to know.
“Who are you?” His voice came out much harsher than intended. 
He’d stepped out in front of her just as she was about to pass, causing her to come to an abrupt stop before crashing into him. Startled eyes, irises dark brown and glinting with a hint of gold, gazed up at him. He’d been wrong about the colors.
“Oh! I didn’t see you there. I’m Hermione Granger. And you are?” She stepped back to an appropriate distance from him, hugging a few books to her chest like armor.
“I’m Draco,” he said simply.
“The prince?” She didn’t sound too surprised, and eyed his unmistakable platinum hair.
“The very same. Why are you here in the library?” He’d finally tempered his tone to a more congenial one. 
“I was told I could read whatever I liked in here. My father is painting your Grand Ballroom.”
Ah. She was the daughter of the painter.
His mother made it a point to elect a new project as soon as the previous one was complete. Previous years had resulted in a reworked Imperial Garden, which boasted rose gardens with every imaginable variety, both magical and non-magical. A formidable greenhouse was added shortly after, and the caretaker they’d employed soon obtained and cultivated the rarest of specimens for use in medicine and potions. 
This year, Queen Narcissa turned her attention to the Grand Ballroom. She and his father adored hosting balls at every opportunity. What better way to display their love for art and beauty than to paint the entire ceiling and all its walls with depictions of magical beasts and figures from history. Circe. Merlin. Rasputin. Titania and Oberon.
Draco had assumed they’d hire a wizard, but he should have known that when it came to art, the king and queen saw no difference between magic or not. They simply wanted the best, and if that happened to be stationary art, then so be it.
“Find anything interesting?” He feigned interest, intent on keeping her talking. She was far more entertaining than pouring over volumes of ancestors alone.
She perked up at his question, and Draco could have sworn sections of her hair floated for just a brief moment.
Certainly not.
“I did! Did you know your castle is situated on top of the most powerful spot in the kingdom? All of the most prominent ley lines converge here underneath our feet!” She stomped one foot in emphasis. He wouldn’t be surprised if she went through several slippers a season if she always beat on them in that manner.
Wait.
Did she say “ley lines”?
“Are you a witch?” he blurted out, once again wincing at the gracelessness of his question. His mother would be mortified if she could hear him.
Hermione looked at him as if he was stupid. “Yes. Why else would your family let me wander around here by myself?”
“I don’t know, maybe because this is the one library of many where muggles are allowed? They do come here occasionally, muggle nobles, to garner favor with us,” he sputtered. He still couldn’t quite believe it. She was a witch. She was an unknown witch of his age. “Why don’t I know you? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before.”
“My parents are muggles. I might have a squib ancestor somewhere, but as far as we know, I’m the only magic user in the Granger family. They sent me abroad for schooling since Hogwarts doesn’t currently accept muggle-borns.” She raised her eyebrows as if challenging him, but Draco couldn’t find it within himself to care about her background.
Hermione didn’t fawn on him like the other girls who had paraded themselves around him at school. She didn’t bat her eyelashes or titter behind a gloved hand. She didn’t wear gloves at all, her slender fingers wrapping around ancient texts as if relishing the touch of the worn covers. She probably thumbed the pages like his instructors told him never to do.
He would have thought that would annoy him, but he instead found himself intrigued in this muggle-born witch who liked reading, wore slippers instead of heels, and forewent glamours.
“Do you want to see the other libraries?”
His words were like a spell, as effective at getting her to brighten as a cheering draught.
“Oh, can I? The king and queen won’t mind?” She nearly vibrated in her excitement.
Her hair was definitely twice the size it was before.
“Not if you’re with me,” Draco said with a smirk, though that was partially a lie. If they’d wanted her in the other libraries, they would have explicitly told her. 
“Well, in that case, what are we waiting for? Let’s go!” She made to dash away, but he caught her shoulder before she could do so.
“Allow me,” he said with a gesture towards the books still clutched to her chest.
“Oh, I can carry these.”
“Please, I insist.” It wouldn’t do if either of his parents not only caught him skiving off lessons with the girl, but allowing her to carry around books like some commoner. When she finally let go of her findings, he cast a featherweight charm and looked at her knowingly. She flushed an adorable shade of pink.
“They really weren’t very heavy, but thank you anyways.”
They spent the remainder of the afternoon exploring, only making it to two additional libraries. Hermione had only added to the pile of books floating behind Draco. He had to refresh the charm multiple times due to the sheer weight.
“You do realize you can’t remove these from the castle, don’t you?” He hoped this wouldn’t be the last time he’d see her, that she’d continue to visit along with her father for as long as there was work. “How long will it take your father to finish the ballroom?”
“To answer your first question, yes, I do understand that I’ll need to reserve these books to read later. I was hoping you could help with that.” He nodded his agreement, even as he inwardly danced with joy at the thought that he now had a reason to continue seeing the girl. “And to answer your second, it could take my father years.”
“Years?” Draco was aghast at the approximation.
“Years,” she repeated. “If you go take a look, you’ll see why. He’s not even working alone—he has an entire team helping with the moldings and scenery.”
Trust his mother to pick a project of such staggering proportions that it required multiple artists. On the bright side, that meant he’d have a long time to get to know Hermione, even if it was only during the holidays.
“It’s a shame you can’t attend Hogwarts.” It wasn’t until she tutted in agreement that he realized he’d said the words aloud. If she’d been like any other girl, she would have pounced on any hint of attachment on his part. She, however, did not.
“Well, if the king’s word is true, then I may soon. In exchange for my father’s work, yours agreed to update Hogwarts’ policies. I love Beauxbatons, but I can’t disagree that staying closer to home would make everything a lot easier on my family.”
“If you do,” Draco said the words slowly, hardly believing they were coming out of his mouth but needing her to know before it was too late, “then you should ask to be sorted into Slytherin.”
His heart sank at the way her nose wrinkled and lips turned downward in a grimace. “Isn’t that house renowned for pureblood ideology? I was leaning more towards Ravenclaw, myself.”
He nodded somewhat agreeably. “Books and cleverness…you could certainly do worse. They’re not a bad lot, if you ignore their tendency to disappear into their studies. Though…” he trailed off, reluctant to give away his feelings again without assistance.
“Though it might mean we don’t see each other? I wouldn’t let that happen outside of exams,” she said offhandedly. “I’ll keep in mind what you said. Snakes can be quite clever, in a sneaky kind of way.” The pointed look she sent Draco reminded him of how he’d approached her in the first place.
“Quite.”
A gentle melody played in the air, noting the top of the hour and finishing with eight long chimes.
“And that’s my cue. Hold on to those for me, would you?” Hermione leaned up onto her toes, laid the palms of her hands atop his shoulders, and pressed a kiss onto one cheek, then the other.
Draco could do nothing but stand still in shock at her forwardness. Then he remembered where she went to school and the strange habits the people of that land practiced. He cleared his throat to cover his awkward silence, but the crooked smirk she wore proved the attempt useless.
“When will I see you next?” He realized how needy that sounded as it came out, and hastily continued,“Just so I know when to have them ready?”
She flitted to the doors and didn’t respond until she was nearly through them, “I’m sure you’ll find me!”
And just like that, she was gone, leaving behind her stack of books, the echoes of her soft lips on his face, and the sweet scent of apple blossoms in the air. Draco wondered if she had perhaps cast some sort of love spell on him. How else could he explain his complete lack of reservation around her, or why her humble origins didn’t matter to him like he thought they should?
Queen Narcissa found him still in contemplation shortly after, and was impressed at the amount of reading material gathered around him.
“My dragon, there you are! Wilfred said he’d sent you to recover texts on our family history ages ago.”
“Mother, did you know the painter has a daughter?”
Narcissa blinked as she processed the odd question. “Master Granger? Of course. Hermione is a lovely, bright little thing. I told her she could read whatever she liked in our First Library. Why do you ask?”
Her son continued to stare at the wall, and she had half a mind to cast a homenum revelio.
“Draco?”
He came to with a shake and gave her one of his rare, full smiles. “No reason. I think we’ll be wonderful friends. You should make sure Hogwarts changes their acceptance rules before school starts again.”
Bewildered and bemused, she stroked a hand over his hair, so like his father’s. “I take it the two of you met?”
“We did. These are all hers.” He gestured towards the books once more.
“And here I thought you’d finally taken an interest in your studies.”
He snorted and she nearly pinched him on the arm for his cheek. She made do instead with a tickle to his side. He ducked away from her with a laugh, holding up his hands in surrender. “Mother, please! That isn’t fair! You know all my weak spots.”
She desisted in her attack with another indulgent smile. “And don’t you forget it. Just be careful with Hermione, dear.”
“What do you mean?” He tilted his head in confusion and she nearly sighed at his naivety. The young could be so oblivious, but she envied them their freedom.
She thought back on her own upbringing. The Blacks were more ancient and arrogant than even the royal family; her marriage to Lucius had been agreed upon at birth and as expected as the fact that clouds brought rain and Blacks were as pure as pure could be. She knew she was his from the beginning, and no amount of pining after others or imagining life in another place with a different name would change her fate.
Narcissa looked at her son, a near perfect replica of her husband aside from the softer grey eyes she’d bestowed upon him and his smile. He’d been so much like her at the start, but over the years he’d become more and more like his father. Now, today, he was like his younger self again.
She didn’t care what Lucius intended for his heir. She just wanted him to find happiness.
“True friends are difficult to come by, particularly for people of our station. I have a feeling that, if you nurture your relationship with Hermione, she’ll be someone worth keeping at your side.”
“What would father say?” he asked, caution and desire battling for domination on his face.
“He prizes power above all else.” This much was true. Lucius just happened to have a bit of a blind spot outside of magical families. “Apply yourself to your studies, help one another, and I’ll take care of Hogwarts and your father.”
Listening to his mother, Draco started to relax and let a bit of his earlier hope trickle back in. He wasn’t sure how Hermione had secured her approval, but she had. Greater deeds had been turned into ballads.
“Has anyone ever told you that you’re a bit terrifying sometimes?”
Narcissa smirked, immediately reminding Draco of wild curls and a smattering of freckles. The two women looked wildly different, yet they gave off a similar air of confident capability.
“I have been told. Once or twice.”
He made a note to tread carefully around Hermione in the future. If she turned out anything like his mother, he never wanted to be on the opposite end of her ire.
Oh, the feats they would accomplish together.

Hermione x reader - forever together
Tumblr media
Hermione x (platonic) reader who had a rough upbringing, and hermione befriending the reader and being like an older sister to the reader and protective of them? - Anon 💜
Hermione noticed you from the moment you all started Hogwarts, from the way you said nothing as the sorting hat talked to you but you said nothing in return, to the way you said nothing as you were put in Gryffindor and you just walked straight to the dorms.
You had steady grades, did whatever you needed to and talked to no one.
As the second year came around, she was determined to talk to you.
Hermione went to the one place she knew you would be, the library.
It was quiet, not a lot of other students went there unless they had too, and you were left alone by the teachers.
Hermione took a while to find out, but as she made her way into the furtherest corner of the book sanctuary and that’s when she found you.
You were sitting at one of the tables, back against the wall as you flicked through some random books.
“Can I have a seat?” She asked softly.
You didn’t bother to look as you nodded and she frowned a little.
“I’m Hermione. Hermione Granger.”
You looked up this time.
“(Y/N)…” you mumbled out.
“It’s nice to meet you, what are you reading?”
You simply flipped the over around so you could show her and then went back to reading.
Hermione kept trying to talk to you but you only nodded or shook your head, you hardly spoke a word to her and that’s something she noticed through the next few weeks.
A couple of months passed and Hermione had managed to grow a little closer to you, but that was it.
She was getting ready to go home for summer when she noticed you didn’t have any bags packed, you were simply sat on the stairs watching everyone leave.
“Are you not going home?” She asked.
You looked up at her and shook your head.
Hermione grabbed her suitcase and set it on the steps and sat next to you.
“Don’t you miss your family?” She asked softly.
You scoffed a little.
“I’d much rather stay here.”
She frowned.
“Do you want to come to mine?”
You looked at her and shook your head.
“No thank you, I don’t want to be a bother.”
Hermione smiled at you and gently nudged you with her shoulder.
“Come on, you won’t be a bother. My mum and dad won’t mind at all, actually they’d be pretty happy I think.”
You turned away from her and felt someone standing behind you, so you titled your head back to find Dumbledore standing there.
“Why not go? We have some renovations to do around the school it would be safer not to be here.”
You simply sighed but you nodded your head, agreeing to go with her.
“Great! Do you need help packing?”
You shook your head and gestured to your bag next to you.
“That’s everything?”
“Everything I own.” You shrugged.
Hermione frowned.
“Really?”
You nodded.
“I’m sure I’ve got some things that could fit you.”
You sat with her and her friends on the train, but you didn’t take part in the conversations they were having.
But just like Hermione said, her parents were excited to see her and they were more than happy for you to stay with them for the summer.
You realised that she lived closer to you than you realised, only a couple of streets away so how you had never run into her was beyond you. But you never told her.
“Hey do you want to go shopping?” Hermione asked.
“No money.” You replied.
She laughed a little and held up a bank card.
“My parents said they’d pay for whatever you needed. So, want to go?”
You looked up at her.
“I… I’ve never really been…” you mumbled.
Smiling softly, Hermione sat on her bed and grabbed a pen and a notebook.
“Just write down whatever it is you want.”
You wrote a small list, just clothes, that was it.
“You don’t want anything else?”
“I don’t need anything else? Just a new change of clothes.”
Hermione frowned even more.
She couldn’t help but the sadness that built up inside of her at that sentence. You generally seemed so confused and so honest about that was all you needed.
She wondered what your home life was like.
She wanted to ask but she chose not to, instead she scribbled a few more things on the paper and you both went shopping.
It was a long day of shopping and when you both returned to her home you had a lot of bags.
She helped you put everything away and handed you the books she got for you.
“For me?”
“Of course they are, I noticed you like reading.”
You cracked a tiny smile.
“Thank you…”
Hermione spent the whole summer doing things you hadn’t done before or weren’t allowed to do, she learned more about you bit by bit.
She vowed during that summer she was always going to look after you and show you the best in life and she did.
When you all returned to school she was right next to you, she took you to Hogsmead, let you show her your favourite hiding spots.
Hermione became your sister, you went to hers every holiday, her parents took you in as their own.
You started to smile a bit more and open a bit more and you two became practically inseparable

Taking Gryffindors and Their Stans to Court
So I thought it would be fun to compile a list of crimes committed by various Gryffindor characters, especially the ones I have seen stans blatantly glorify or condone. This is also fueled by the narrative ignoring how horrific these actions are as well. For each, I will provide the definition of the crime as listed in British law (hyperlink provided in the crime category), cite the guilty parties and cite some of the flimsy defences provided by stans. The characters include, but are not limited to:
Hermione Granger
Weasley twins
Marauders (especially James Potter and Sirius Black)
Rubeus Hagrid
Professor McGonagall
This post will be a work in progress so I will add as I go along. Please feel free to add as well. Also, I am not a legal expert so do not expect these categories to be 100% accurate despite my doing my best. Here I go!
Crime: Sexual Harassment
The Equality Act 2010 says someone sexually harasses another person if they:
Engage in unwanted conduct of a sexual nature and
The conduct has the purpose or effect of either violating the other person’s dignity or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for them.
Guilty parties: James Potter and other marauders as accomplices (Snape's Worst Memory, Book 5)
But too late; Snape had directed his wand straight at James; there was a flash of light and a gash appeared on the side of James’s face, spattering his robes with blood. James whirled about: a second flash of light later, Snape was hanging upside-down in the air, his robes falling over his head to reveal skinny, pallid legs and a pair of greying underpants. Many people in the small crowd cheered; Sirius, James and Wormtail roared with laughter.
There was another flash of light, and Snape was once again hanging upside-down in the air. ‘Who wants to see me take off Snivelly’s pants?’
Said by Marauder/James stans:
Snape was a future DE so he deserved it; ie. future criminals/bullies deserve to be bullied before they commit said crime. Someone had to bully Snape.
What James did was not sexual harassment
Snape is a guy so he can't be sexually harassed
I hate Snape so I love seeing him hurt and in pain (perfectly valid reason, we can hate who we want. still listing it though)
Boys will be boys. The marauders are just teenage boys joking around.
In that period, what James did was not illegal
Snape called Lily a mudblood so he deserved it
Snape attacked James so he deserved it
Crime: Kidnapping
The legal definition of kidnapping is to take someone unwillingly and then keep them illegally imprisoned without their valid consent. The latter is normally done with motive, such as financial gain in the form of a ransom.
Guilty parties: Hermione Granger (The Beginning, Book 4)
‘Oh, not electronic bugs,’ said Hermione. ‘No, you see … Rita Skeeter’ – Hermione’s voice trembled with quiet triumph – ‘is an unregistered Animagus. She can turn –’ Hermione pulled a small sealed glass jar out of her bag. ‘– into a beetle.’
Said by Hermione stans:
Rita deserved it for being a sleazy journalist and saying mean things about her and her friends
Rita deserved it by committing a crime first as an illegal animagus. So she has no leverage against Hermione.
Crime: Child Cruelty (Or Child Endangerment/Abuse)
The offence in section 1 of the 1933 Act is committed where a person over the age of 16, who has responsibility for a child under that age, wilfully assaults, illtreats, neglects, abandons, or exposes that child in a manner likely to cause ‘unnecessary suffering or injury to health including any mental derangement’.
Guilty parties: Prof Minerva McGonagall (Snape’s Grudge, Book 3)
Professor McGonagall was so furious with him she had banned him from all future Hogsmeade visits, given him a detention and forbidden anyone to give him the password into the Tower. Poor Neville was forced to wait outside the common room every night for somebody to let him in . . .
Context: An alleged mass murderer (Sirius Black) was on the loose 🫠
Said by McGonagall stans:
She's just strict
Crime: Assault
An assault is any act (and not mere omission to act) by which a person intentionally or recklessly causes another to suffer or apprehend immediate unlawful violence.
Guilty parties:
Rubeus Hagrid (The Keeper of the Keys, Book 1)
He brought the umbrella swishing down through the air to point at Dudley — there was a flash of violet light, a sound like a firecracker, a sharp squeal and next second, Dudley was dancing on the spot with his hands clasped over his fat bottom, howling in pain. When he turned his back on them, Harry saw a curly pig’s tail poking through a hole in his trousers. ... ‘Oh, well — I was at Hogwarts meself but I — er — got expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me wand in half an’ everything.’
Fred & George Weasley (Back to the Burrow, Book 4 & Snape's Worst Memory, Grawp;Book 5) - two for the price of one lol
Dudley was no longer standing behind his parents. He was kneeling beside the coffee table, and he was gagging and spluttering on a foot-long, purple, slimy thing that was protruding from his mouth. One bewildered second later, Harry realised that the foot-long thing was Dudley’s tongue — and that a brightly coloured toffee-wrapper lay on the floor before him.
‘Yeah, Montague tried to do us during break,’ said George. ‘What do you mean, “tried”?’ said Ron quickly. ‘He never managed to get all the words out,’ said Fred, ‘due to the fact that we forced him head-first into that Vanishing Cabinet on the first floor.’ ‘Not until Montague reappears, and that could take weeks, I dunno where we sent him,’ said Fred coolly. ‘Anyway … we’ve decided we don’t care about getting into trouble any more.’
To cap matters, Montague had still not recovered from his sojourn in the toilet; he remained confused and disorientated and his parents were to be observed one Tuesday morning striding up the front drive, looking extremely angry.
Hermione Granger (Felix Felicis, Book 6)
‘Oppugno!’ came a shriek from the doorway. Harry spun round to see Hermione pointing her wand at Ron, her expression wild: the little flock of birds was speeding like a hail of fat golden bullets towards Ron, who yelped and covered his face with his hands, but the birds attacked, pecking and clawing at every bit of flesh they could reach.
Said by Hagrid stans:
Like with Minerva, I don't see Hagrid stans or regular fans bringing this up. But crimes against the Dursleys are usually justified by the fandom due to their being abusive to Harry.
Said by Weasley twins stans:
The Dursleys were abusive to Harry so Dudley deserved it.
Dudley brought it on himself by eating it. The twins did not force him to eat it.
It was just a joke - harmless fun (for both crimes)
They did not know what the cabinet would do
They did not intend to almost kill Montague
Montague deserved it because HE WAS TAKING HOUSE POINTS (***INSERT RAGE!!!!***)
The twins are just mischievous. They are so funny!
Said by Hermione/Romione stans:
It was just a mistake
Hermione has anger issues. She's just a teenage girl.
Hermione was distraught. She didn't mean it.
Ron deserved it for hurting queen Hermione.
Ron doesn't care so why do you?
Romione is the best HP ship ever. All ships have rough patches.
No matter what Hermione does, I will always ship her with Ron. The other options are not good for her.
Tumblr media
I will pause here because I can feel my blood pressure rising. I don't really have beef with anyone, I just don't like seeing these takes on my dash or these responses on my anti blog posts. I have no control over people's opinions and I doubt more than a handful of people care about mine.
Will continue next time on Taking Gryffindors and Their Stans to Court!
PS. All attempts to deflect by pointing the finger at other characters like Draco Malfoy, DEs, Severus Snape etc will be ignored. This is about JKR's darlings who apparently can do no wrong and the stans who shamelessly justify violence.
