> It was subtle at first. For the first several months, she assumed it was merely the stress of the war; for the next several months, she assumed it was the stress of the trials; then when winter approached, she assumed it was stress from school. She kept assuming it was stress until she was walking to the cabinet to retrieve her supplies for Potions class and the walls began closing in, wobbling and swallowing her up. When she woke again, she was in the Hogwarts hospital ward. Severus Snape stood at her bedside, staring down at her with an expression of profound irritation.

> She hated the way he never asked for his coffee, instead outstretching a wide palm as he passed her desk in the morning as if getting it for him was her first priority of the day.

She hated the way his overpriced shoes would click obnoxiously against the floors whenever he passed.

She absolutely loathed the way the others in the firm would hang onto his every word, vying for his attention as if he were some sort of celebrity, as if they would better themselves by merely being seen to associate with him.

But what she hated the very most about Tom Riddle, was that he was an unbelievable fuck.

> How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger.

"Take a picture, love," he muttered lowly, "I'm old enough to be your father."

Scowling, Hermione whirled back to face the road, chewing her tongue.

the to-do list

chapter update! 12/15

“But I have to ask, what are some of these terms?” Ginny scanned the list again, an eyebrow arched. “Boob…fondling?” Hermione succeeded this time in snatching the journal away. “What?” Ginny groaned. “I wasn’t making fun.” "Well, what would you call it,” Hermione snapped. Ginny looked at the slightly misty reflected-sky above them. She looked down with sudden inspiration. “Juggling jubblies.”

“The only reason he was with you was to piss me off. It was all a big joke." Her blood froze, heartbeat slowing as the words reverberated in her ears. A big joke. “That’s just not true,” she said with a thick voice.

“So, does that mean that you usually do these types of things with your friends?” Hermione asked with feigned nonchalance.

From Hermione’s periphery, Pansy got up from her spot. “I don’t usually play, if that’s what you’re wondering,” said Theo with a smirk. Of course he knew there was more to it than that.

She shifted slightly, then stiffened, realizing that her pelvis was flush against Pansy’s and the movement had only intensified the kiss further. With that Hermione suddenly pulled away, leaving Pansy to gasp into the empty air. Hermione held her breath, looking up to find Blaise leaning in for a front row study. Others were watching just as intently. She looked to her right to see a white-faced Ron utter, “Blimey.” But it wasn’t until Hermione found Malfoy’s eyes, pupils blown wide and dark that she came to the realization of what she’d just done. What she’d just accomplished. Because as Pansy was stunned, Malfoy was angry? Fists clenched at his sides, jaw ticking. That would show him. She got up, trying to catch her breath as she made her way back to her side of the circle. Back to Theo, who was now looking at her with amused interest. So different from Malfoy. So ready to laugh with her about her dare. To make her feel better.

> “Tall? That’s what you think I should notice about Malfoy? His height?”Ginny quirked an eyebrow and licked the tip of her quill suggestively. ”Well, isn’t that your thing? Lockhart. Krum. McLaggen. Ron. The only thing they have in common is being tall enough to give me a neck ache.”Hermione felt her ears grow hot, and she gripped her book tighter. “I don’t have a thing for tall men. Their height is—completely coincidental.”Dramione Height Differences Minifest 2020.

(this is probably the only one of senlinyu’s fics i like even tho they’re a staple in this pairing…idk) this is so good…

> Hermione Granger had been asked—and agreed—to do many absurd things since learning she was a witch, usually involving Harry Potter. This long list included, in no particular order, smuggling baby dragons, being placed unconscious at the bottom of a lake surrounded by merpeople, and traveling back in time to fly an escaped convict to safety on the back of a mythical creature. But returning to a Death Eater-controlled Hogwarts pretending to be Daphne Greengrass may have been the most ridiculous yet.

review: not to sound like a broken record but screaming crying throwing up. and they were roommates! it's funny how much a cup of tea can mean. heart-wringing, humanising, wholesome, healing, witty— it has it all! for a wartime fic it was very positive, optimistic and suspenseful. snape redemption, malfoy redemption, slytherin gang redemption, proud dad!remus lupin

draco malfoy saw hermione being an annoying know it all with a violent temper, sighed like a little schoolgirl and begged her to smack him around. hermione is in denial. theo sees hermiones faults. he wants to be the doing the one smacking around. that's what ive understood so far in the Gloriana Set

review! the gloriana set

i don't know why i always scoffed at the gloriana set on ao3. maybe part of my impersonal dislike of it's general existence was that it had been WIP for so long and generally seemed very drawn out and dissatisfying. i am finally reading it now for the first time, currently almost half way through, and i am torn. on one hand, i want to go back in time and slap myself for not giving it a second look, but also im glad i waited for it to be completed and that i can discover it for the first time now. although im sure i would have still enjoyed to reread it. ive already reread the first 28 chapters about 3 or 4 times since beginning it because i stop reading to do something else and just want to refresh myself. i enjoy it just the same every time.

maybe another part of why i didn't like the premise was the love triangle, which has turned into an acquired taste of mine especially with theo nott who i think (his characteristics being quite subjective depending on headcannon) is the perfect little tartlet thing to add a bit of spice. unintentional pun on sugar and spice which was definitely one of the most influential hp fanfics ive ever read personally. as well, my old opinion on hp fanfic esp concerning draco malfoy was that everyone needs to suffer, and this story is very very self indulgent.

in a way that makes you want to grab the characters by the shoulders and shake them.

loving it so far. will continue to review as i go because im having Thoughts.
