Summary
Inej Ghafa is a principal dancer of the Kerch National Ballet, haunted by a past she'd rather forget. Kaz Brekker is a mob boss who holds the city in the palm of his hand.
Perhaps if all were right with the world, two such people would never meet. Or perhaps fate will always give those who need each other a push in the right direction.
It begins, as so many things in Ketterdam do, with a murder.

Summary
On the 31st of October, an eleven-year-old girl will bring about the end of the world. According to prophecy, anyway, and everyone knows those are infallible.
Fortunately, the world has unlikely heroes in the form of Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy, who've selflessly agreed to put aside their mutual hatred and long-standing prank war in order to find the girl and stop the apocalypse. If only they could be certain they have the right child…
For fans of Terry Pratchett and dramatic irony, a comedy of errors about two people so stubbornly in denial, Fate itself decides to step in.

Summary
When a pandemic of Runespoor Fever sweeps through the wizarding world at the end of 2003, leaving a full quarter of its victims infertile, the International Confederation of Wizards takes drastic action. A marriage and reproductive law is enacted, throwing the wizarding world into upheaval.
Lightly inspired by the 1989 film The War of the Roses, (but without the animal death,) and our own recent pandemic.
She was wearing one of her neat, buttoned-up outfits as always; brown herringbone trousers and a silky cream blouse that covered her from throat to wrist, her hair braided around her head but not quite as neat as usual. He stopped several feet from her and frowned. “Why do you smell of smoke, Granger?”
“Does it really matter, Malfoy?” She skewered him with a glare, arms folding across her chest. “Perhaps I took up smoking.”
“And did you?”
She gave him an ‘are you mad?’ look. “No, I burnt down my office,” she said exasperatedly, as if it should’ve been obvious, and he tried to refrain from giving her an ‘are you mad?’ look in return.

Summary
She lost her magic slowly, at first.
It started as a creeping deadness somewhere low in her abdomen.
It spread outward like necrosis into her chest and her head and her limbs. She had no recollection of when, exactly, it had begun.
~
Hermione has made a name for herself in the Order as a gifted inventor of spells. As the war careens into its seventh year, she fights to keep Harry alive by developing a potion that strengthens his magic to the detriment of his physical health. Wracked with guilt at his rapid deterioration and desperate to save his life, she risks liaising with Draco Malfoy, the head inquisitor in Voldemort’s secret police force and a talented but dangerous Legilimens. Her risk does not go to plan, and after enduring months of brutal captivity, she loses her capacity to do magic.
To her dismay, Malfoy now seems to be her only hope of regaining her former ability.
A dark, slow-burn war AU about trauma, recovery, and reclamation of feminine power
