Summary
There is something about watching Rey put her mind to task. Ben can't put a name to this something, exactly— all he knows is that it fascinates him like nothing else has in a long, long time.
"Dr. Solo?" She glances over at him. "What do you think?"
I think I'm doomed, he wants to say but doesn't. I think the curse of the pharaohs has nothing on you. I think you are my Egypt.

Summary
“Hermione, I don’t think Malfoy has been teasing or insulting you. I think…” Ginny rolled her tongue in her mouth, struggling to speak the next words: “I think he was trying to court you.”
“What? No!"
-
Hermione is determined to smile through Malfoy’s blatant taunting without biting his head off.
Draco is delighted that Hermione responds well to his courtship instead of biting his head off.

Summary
Draco had at least four folders open on his desk, at least one of which contained a number of graphic photographs of a homicide scene. He sighed. “I’m in the middle of this. And the fact that they’re willing to let me verify it is, in fact, an indication that they’re telling the truth.”
Harry resisted the urge to roll his eyes. “Yeah, yeah, not once in your entire career has a voluntary alibi verification turned out to be deceptive, it’s a criminal waste of resources, we ought to be using the forensic legilimency department for matters that only they can address.”Draco leaned back in his chair. “It’s almost as if I’ve attempted to make this point before.”
“It’s almost as if the Ministry doesn’t share your opinion on it,” Harry countered. “It’ll take five minutes.”

Summary
Draco is gifted a muggleborn girl - Hermione - for his sixth birthday. He adores her and they are soon inseparable. But life is changing fast, and Draco's future holds power and responsibility that he will have to reckon with.
--
“There she is, darling. Go say hello.”
Narcissa nudged Draco gently. He tried to duck behind her skirts but she tutted and swept him forward to greet the little girl standing across the room.
Draco’s first thought was that the girl was very pretty. He didn’t want to stare or be weird, so he chanced glances at her out of the corner of his eye. She looked to be about his age or maybe a little younger, with dark, loosely curly hair and big serious eyes rimmed with wet-looking lashes. Her cheeks were pink like someone had just scrubbed her clean, and she was wearing a little blue dress with neat white lace on the sleeves and collar.
“This is Hermione,” his mother said. “We got her just for you. She’s going to be your new friend.”

Summary
“We’re actually banking on the media attention,” Harry said, mildly. “I don’t want you going as someone else.”
“She’s going to have to go with someone else,” Malfoy said. “End of story.”
