Summary
Sixteen years post-war, Draco Malfoy has reinvented himself: Head Auror of the French Ministry, internationally respected, hero-adjacent, and absolutely not still a security risk (depending on who you ask). So when Harry Potter lures him back to Britain with the promise of power, prestige and MILD public outrage, Draco's only question is: how bad could it possibly be?
Hermione Granger-Weasley is the Ministry's golden girl: war hero, legal prodigy, and the woman most likely to stabilise the government before her second cup of coffee. With Shacklebolt stepping down ahead of the November elections and two dangerously mediocre men circling the job like vultures, Hermione is the obvious - and reluctantly willing - successor. Backed by a few loyal allies, a lot of policy and a marriage that looks respectable (if you squint), she doesn't have time for distractions. Especially not in the form of Draco Malfoy: smug, silver-tongued, and recently hired into her orbit like a bad decision in expensive tailoring. Unfortunately he's infuriatingly competent. And even more unfortunately - he agrees with her.
OR how did Hermione Granger become Minister for Magic and how the fuck did Malfoy get roped into this deluded shit show.

Summary
It's been over five years since Voldemort's defeat when Harry Potter gets pushed through a portal and falls into the Great Hall of Hogwarts. This wouldn't be a problem, exactly, except it's his parents' Hogwarts instead of his own. Thankfully, Hermione and Ron aren't about to let him face this newest form of trouble by himself. Even more fortunately, Hermione says they're in a different dimension entirely.
Harry has a castle full of living ghosts, his best friends by his side, and three to six months to make just a few changes. Starting with a snake.

Summary
Too much loss and too much suffering drove a desperate Hermione Granger to make a bid for a different outcome. Albus Dumbledore had once told her that it was dangerous to meddle with time, but Hermione was willing to sacrifice everything--up to and including herself--to change fate and create a better world for those she loved.
Perhaps she ought to have asked Dumbledore to clarify the dangers of meddling with time.

Prompt: we were fooling around in my car and you accidentally left your sexy underwear in the backseat, which one of our friends finds just as we’re about to go on a really long, awkward road trip.
