Summary
It’s the smell of it. Chemical. Bitter and sharp as a raw edge on metal. Just a hint of it as she passes him at breakfast — but enough to stop her dead, mid-step.
There is Wolfsbane in his tea.

Summary
Hermione's eighth year at Hogwarts is already going to be difficult in the aftermath of the war, but is further thrown into upheaval when Headmistress McGonagall orders a re-sorting of all students to promote inter-house unity. But when the Sorting Hat sends Hermione to Ravenclaw with Draco - and without Harry or Ron - how will she cope? [Epilogue? What epilogue?] Prevalent alchemy.

Summary
“There must be some mistake,” Hermione pleaded, “I’m a muggle-born. I can’t be in Slytherin … Please … I can’t…”
“A muggle-born you say? HA! You’d have to be daft to believe that… Well then, certainly not Ravenclaw, but I sense courage. Yes… you could do great things. So perhaps…,” A tentative hum escaped the hat’s rim, “ –GRYFFINDOR!” it roared finally.
Relief washed over her like rain in a drought, but the Sorting Hat’s words turned over and over again. And they nagged and itched and festered.
And she picked at them until they bled.
*I do not own any part of the Harry Potter franchise, obviously*
UPDATE 09/30/2021: Hey Lovelies, I had a crazy end of summer followed by a pretty serious, emergency surgery at the start of September :( Please forgive the absence of updates. I hope to get Chapter 7 out before the holidays! Much Love, Rel x

Summary
Tom was now standing straight, looking right at her. He was supposed to be horrified by what he just witnessed. He was supposed to feel sick from the images still flashing through his mind. Tom knew she was manipulative and cunning, always a step ahead of everyone and sometimes even himself.
Still, he felt like meeting her for the first time on this night for she was not a flame as he thought at the beginning but an entire wildfire. And he was basking in her blazing heat.
He looked at the scar on her neck. He must have looked at it hundreds of times yet he truly saw it for the first time. The scar he knew she bore below her coat, the one the purple spell carved, the one he felt and bled through his shirt was right there. And he felt the sudden urge to touch it.
She was standing in front of him in all of her glory and she was magnificent.
