Oh boy, this is gonna be my longest submission for the @hprecfest to date. Buckle up my friends, the road ahead will be teary with little to no sunshine and rainbows. HEA is not guaranteed, though one has a little more hopeful ending than the others (I'll let you guess which one 👀)

I take absolutely no responsibility for the possible heartache you feel after reading my recs.

*Most of the fics below are rareships , all but the first one.

1. Seven Minutes by starkidsftw (T, 60,588, Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy)

They say after you die, your brain stays alive for seven minutes. And in those seven minutes, you live your entire life over again. When Draco Malfoy's seven minutes arrived, he did relive his life: his experiences, his mistakes, his memories. But most importantly, he relived being with her. He relived hating her, loving her, and then ruining it forever.

A Dramione 6th year AU, how typical. But my breath was taken away with how beautiful and poetic the writing was, how in-character both Draco and Hermione were as well as how believable their journey from enemies to lovers was.

This fic is Draco-centric, though the romance is one of the key parts in it. Seven Minutes explored Draco's thoughts and actions throughout the fateful sixth year at Hogwarts with great care and consideration, never shying away from the more unsavory aspects of his personality unlike many Hogwarts Dramione fics.

Draco, through the exceptional crafting of the author, appeared as both sympathetic and pathetic, yet very human and understandable.

After reading it the first time, I immediately reread it while listening to Dumbledore's Farewell OST, crying my eyeballs out.

The author of this one has several much more popular Dramione fics and in fact has an ao3 account, but SM remains one of the finest Dramione fic I've ever read.

*This fic could be put under the prompts of Day 5: A non-AO3 fic, Day 8: A canon-divergence fic, Day 21: A thought-provoking fic and Day 28: An under-rated fic.

2. Beauty and the Beast by @metalomagnetic (M, 21,209, Bellatrix Lestrange/Voldemort)

Whenever Voldemort sees beauty, he wants to destroy it. Bellatrix Black endures.

As I said to dear @metalomagnetic on Discord: "Your fic destroyed me." Who would have thought that one day, I would read a Bellamort fic, getting choked up over their tragic tale at work?

Through the masterful stroke of the author, Bellatrix Lestrange became much more multidimensional and fascinating. More than just a sadistic and insane femme fatale, Bella in BatB loved strongly, felt deeply and had had her heart broken. She was devoted to what she believed in, in this case her freedom to live outside of the strict Pureblood ideals for women, and Voldemort.

Voldemort, as always, shined in the hands of metalomagnetic. He was absolutely unapologetic, unhinged, with wrapped views and formidable presence. To witness his spiral downward first hand was both tragic and mesmerizing.

So please, if you could get over your misgivings about JK's terrible portrayal of Bellamort in canon (and *cough* CC *cough*), give this fic a try. You won't regret it.

(If you're a fan of Tom Riddle/Voldemort like me or a fan of canon-accurate Sirius Black, I highly recommend you to check out metalomagnetic's other fics 😉)

*This fic could be put under the prompts of Day 6: An unreliable narrator fic, Day 7: A canon-compliant fic and Day 9: A rare pair fic (less than 2000 fics on AO3).

3. Tiveden by NoFootprintsInSand (M, 1,594, Hermione Granger/Tom Riddle | Voldemort)

Hope tastes like copper.

There's a reason why despite not rereading this fic for a while now, I could still remember everything in it vividly. Two people got stranded together in the middle of nowhere is a common trope. But this fic went above and beyond to deliver one of the most agonizing and sorrowful twist to it.

To quote one of the comments: He had nothing to live for and she had everything to die for. Like the summary, this fic left a bitter, coppery aftertaste on your tongue after reading.

*This fic could be put under the prompt of Day 1: A favorite fic under 5k and Day 8: A canon-divergence fic.

4. I Think I Know Enough of Hate (1,392) and This Living Hand, Now Warm and Capable (1,287) by NoFootprintsInSand (M, Hermione Granger/Lucius Malfoy)

Hermione and Lucius and the prelude to battle.

and

Hermione and Lucius and the aftermath of battle.

Just getting into Lumione since July, but whenever I'm in the mood for a good punch in the gut, I would immediately go to these two oneshots.

NoFootprintsInSand is a master in weaving beautifully haunting and bittersweet tales, and these two are no exception.

The tragedy that is the corrupted British Wizarding Society as well as the pain of a hollow existence, of pointless conflicts and never-ending power struggle, all portrayed phenomenally through the short, sharp paragraphs and sentences.

Lucius and Hermione's relationship was both twisted and tragic, filled with so much desire and contempt, both for each other and for themselves. Yet there was something more underneath, something speak of love and concern but at the same time not. Whatever it was, it made them cling to one another, wrapping up in a tangle of love and hate and obsession.

Each word and phrase were designed for maximum emotional effect, so unforgettable and effective that shook you to the core. The ambiguity of the fic's context added to the desperate and melancholic vibe of the oneshots.

The stories left so much up to interpretation that I've decided to write an AU WIP to explore them more on my own! (with the permission from the og writer)

*These fics could be put under the prompts of Day 1: A favorite fic under 5k, Day 8: A canon-divergence fic, and Day 9: A rare pair fic (less than 2000 fics on AO3).

All 5 fics in this list can also be put under the prompt of Day 17: A fic that made you cry.

As always, happy reading, and see ya next year 💋

In the meantime, check out my rec list for other days.

Day 13: A fic with over 100k words

Day 16: A fic that made you laughed

Day 19: Fic with the hottest smut

Day 22: An unfinished fic (hasn't updated in 10 years or the author stated it has been abandoned)

Friendly Interference By: cleotheo - T, 5 Chapters - When Draco refuses to ask Hermione out his best friend, Blaise Zabini steps in and vows to bring the pair together. Will Blaise be successful in getting the couple together or will he ruin any chance they have of happiness with his interference? Short five part story.

Blaise Zabini and the Difficulty of Existing - starkidsftw - T, one-shot - Draco Malfoy was in love with Hermione Granger. He didn't know it. She didn't know it. But Blaise Zabini, boy did he ever know it. 7th Year Dramione AU from Blaise's perspective.

You're My Present This Year - rainchance - E, one-shot - Draco thought it had been kind of sweet when Granger said it, plucking a bow off the table and sticking it to his chest while she and Narcissa wrapped presents. Completely innocent, nothing sexual or weird about it at all.

Three Can Play By: silverotter1 - M one-shot - Hermione finds that sometimes a girl is willing to do almost anything to get what she wants. DM/HG TN. One-shot. Set in Seventh Year.

“What colour would you call this?” she asked, unsure now of her initial description.

After several moments without an answer, she glanced at him once again.

She met startling silver eyes.

“Champagne, Granger. You’re dressed in champagne.”

She frowned. “That’s not a colour.”

“It is. It’s a colour and a drink, and gods, the way I could just…”

Fate Has Its Ways by starkidsftw

Hermione x Draco Malfoy

For that was the one mystery left after the war: what had happened to Hermione Granger. She had been there by Potter's side all throughout the battle. Then after it was over she disappeared. No one could find her. No one knew where she was. Draco Malfoy hadn't even thought about Hermione Granger in years, until one day when he was given no other choice.

COMPLETE: Chapters: 40 - Words: 144,443

(this was actually the first dramione fanfic I ever read- yes i was quite late on the bandwagon, i know- and it is still one of my favourites. extremely well written and a plot that just keeps on giving, with just the right amount of fluff!)

“I wonder, Miss Granger,” he drawled, his honey eyes on her face. “What will you discover beneath Athens’s sky?”

Her eyes found the dragon constellation again.

Her heart stuttered.

She wondered, indeed.

hiii, do you know of any fic where Draco begs Hermione to take him back? thanks in advance! 🫶

notorious - noelleKINDOF - E, one-shot - He never liked how she was so chatty and always smiling and laughing. She always forced him to eat breakfast and never shut up during the movies. He should be glad when she left but somehow, her absence just left a hole in his chest. Well, fuck. Originally a fic I posted either on wattpad or fiction press but I made it dramione.

Public Displays of Affection - TakingFlight48 - not rated. one-shot - She had dedicated a year and a half to Draco Malfoy. A year and a half of hiding, sneaking and loving each other under the pretence of barely being friends. And she gave up. Six months later she’s still working on healing her heart, her self-esteem and getting herself back into the game. However, Draco has other plans as he has fought tradition, expectations, and found the perfect way to attempt to win back the puzzle piece that most aligns to his. This is how he does it.

A Long Week By: Katrapar3 - K, one-shot - It’s been a very long week for Draco, it’s his own Fault really. What did he really expect to happen?

Home Again by In_Dreams - E, one-shot - When he left, Draco took so much of her with him. Until he Apparates onto the doorstep, bleeding, and Hermione doesn’t have it in her to turn him away - because he’s always been her home.

When The World Ends - starkidsftw - T, one-shot - The night that the world is ending, Draco Malfoy appears at Hermione Granger’s door, one year after their breakup.“It’s easy to be ready for forever when that only means one night, Draco.”

Waifs and Strays - Kyonomiko - M, 31 chapters, Words: 118,152  - War leaves a lot of orphans in its wake. Hermione is one, by her own hand, and she struggles with the realities of her situation. When she finds an orphaned familiar, it seems meant to be, giving and receiving comfort helping to heal her fractured heart. Unfortunately, the animal is actually a wizard, and he has his own issues.

The Man Who Can't Be Moved By: Bookworm045 - K+, one-shot - No one has ever encountered a situation such as this before. Draco Malfoy has positioned himself outside an ice cream parlour and declared he won't move until the girl he loves forgives him. One-shot. Fluff.

Constrictor By: riptey - K+, one-shot - COMPLETE one-shot. Draco isn’t really that bad of a person-not anymore, that is-but try telling him that. It’s going to take a lot of convincing. DMHG, EWE

The Pool

Written by starkidsftw

Since the beginning of their seventh year, Draco Malfoy has been secretly seeing a new girl, but no matter how many times they ask, he won't tell Theo or Blaise who it is.

So, like the boundary-respecting friends they are, Theo and Blaise each make a pool, together picking all the girls at Hogwarts who could be Draco's girlfriend.

Whoever has her name in their pool when the truth is revealed wins.

What could possibly go wrong?

Review: This is one of my favorite authors!! They are so funny I swear. If you love the Slytherins’ relationship, this is the one shot for you. I love Blaise and Theo and the ending of this just makes my heart FULL. It’s so funny and cute I can’t get over it.
