The one where
Molly Weasley teaches Defense
Ron outs Hermione and Draco to the press
Susan sleeps around to cope with grief
"Ron had wallowed in a guilt that had begun to seem excessive, as though somehow her scar was more about his failure to save her than her actual suffering."
"[...]one of your elves threw a hairbrush at me and told me to, and I quote, 'skedaddle'."
People he personally disliked really ought to be arseholes.
"She's the only woman I've ever met so self-assured she'll go out in those wretched, oversized jumpers."
"But you're so symmetrical." and "your ratios" and later Blaise smirked at her. "I said you were beautiful in a way you would hear,"

Summary
Two weeks after Sirius Black falls through the Veil, Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are staying at Grimmauld, going through Sirius' things with Remus.
Two weeks after Sirius Black falls through the Veil, Regulus Black's head breaks above water.
Dumbledore isn't going to be able to keep the same secrets when a resurrected Death Eater encounters two thirds of the future Golden Trio. But Voldemort's desire for immortality means his favored General is exceedingly interested in her cousin's return to life.
-----
“Such magic is dark,” Remus breathed. “It isn’t even meant to exist. It would have required… I mean, a lot of blood, if this is blood magic… surely not…”
Regulus sighed. Sirius had thought Remus’ stammering and wide eyes when his mind was overworking was cute. Reg disagreed. “Several human sacrifices,” he finished for him. “It would have taken several human sacrifices.” Their mother was certainly deranged enough to do it.
“Is it reversible?” mini-Potter muttered.

Summary
Threatened with the loss of her trust fund allowance, wild child Pansy Parkinson takes her mother up on an offer she can't refuse: a job at the Ministry of Magic as personal secretary to tightly wound bureaucrat Percy Weasley.
The job is demanding, and so is her boss, in ways that Pansy never could have imagined.
When their mutual desires begin to spin out of control, how will Pansy convince her boss that sometimes, the only rules you need to follow are your own?
A loving tribute to the pure and criminally underappreciated magic that is the ParkWeasel ship, and the 2002 film Secretary.

Summary
This story started as a series of drabbles, ficlets, and could-have-been-canon scenes beginning in June of 1995 wherein Fred and Hermione slowly become more than friendly acquaintances. Similarly, this fic itself has gradually morphed into much more than that, and certainly more than I had ever intended it to be.
It’s now 250k+ words of my explaining by example all of the ways that these two could - SHOULD - have been canon, and what that might have looked like if it ran alongside the events of the original books (or most of them, anyway).
That said, this story is significantly darker than canon, and it touches on some of the trauma that was previously brushed over, as well as injecting some where it makes sense to have occurred. There’s plenty of humor and joy, but there’s also a lot of pain that, within the context of the story, has good reason to be felt.
Regarding the Underage tag, the characters are ages sixteen and eighteen at the first occurrence. If this upsets your sensibilities, this is not the story for you. Especially triggering content will be called out in chapter notes.
