  Summary

  When Hermione is unexpectedly whisked from her boring Ministry job and appointed interim Headmistress of Hogwarts, she is not expecting Lucius Malfoy to be her co-Headmaster. The two quickly find old grudges are easier to maintain when you don't know the person behind them - and Hogwarts itself seems intent on them becoming better acquainted. Can they solve the mystery of why they were hired? And will these two idiots ever work it out?
