    Summary

    Let her hear, if she was still in the sitting room. Let her know what she’d done with her voice alone.

    The air was thick with steam and static and shame.

    But he didn’t stop.

    His mind conjured her again—how she’d looked tonight with that stubborn tilt to her chin, daring him to fight back. She wanted heat. She’d get it.

    Lucius moved faster now. His free hand braced against the counter, his hips rolling just slightly into each stroke. His skin was flushed, damp. He didn’t try to stay silent. Let the acoustics carry it. Let the house feel it.

    He thought he heard something outside the door—a gasp. Light. Quick.

    After a failed sting operation, Lucius is placed into protective custody under the supervision of a vetted Ministry official. Hermione draws the short straw.

    Summary

    Dear Miss Granger,

    I trust this letter finds you in good health. Circumstances compel me to request your immediate assistance at Hogwarts.

    Disturbances have arisen in the Black Lake. The wards which have safeguarded the castle for centuries show signs of strain, and the creatures beneath the surface are restless. While I have every confidence in the school’s ability to defend itself, I believe this situation requires both discretion and diplomacy.

    The Ministry has, as you know, the duty to maintain relations with non-human beings. I am therefore requesting you, specifically, to act as liaison on its behalf. Your record, your learning, and, if I may add, my own regard for your judgement, make you uniquely suited for the task.

    Please join me to discuss this in detail tomorrow evening. Your negotiation partner will also be present.

    Yours sincerely,
    Minerva McGonagall

    Summary

    It's eight years after the war and Hermione Granger has taken a break from her career at the Ministry of Magic to compile an oral history of the conflict. She's interviewed just about everyone she can get her hands on but she wants to be thorough. And that means getting in contact with a very unwilling Lucius Malfoy.

    - - - - -

    "For your information, I'm not shopping it around yet because I still don’t have access to all of the sources I need.”

    “You’ve got to be joking. You must have interviewed every living person that was even tangentially connected to the war.”

    “Not everyone,” Hermione said, turning in her seat to reach up for the mug of tea she’d left on the kitchen counter.

    “Who’s left? The trolley lady from the Hogwarts Express?”

    “Your father.”

    Malfoy opened his mouth and then closed it again with a click of his teeth, shaking his head. “You don’t want to do that, Granger.”

    Summary

    When Quirrell abruptly quits his post as professor of Muggle Studies, teaching apprentice Hermione Granger volunteers to replace him. Unhappy with some of Dumbledore’s recent appointments, the board of governors volunteers Lucius Malfoy to assess Hermione’s teaching for a term in order to determine if she’s the right fit for the job. Neither of them is happy about it.

    Or: a very petty pair make the students of Hogwarts look like mature adults. No Voldemort AU.
