“To destroy the darkness, she must let it consume her.”
Hermione Granger must come to terms with the impossible — she's trapped in 1947. And worse, she's stranded with her childhood tormentor, Draco Malfoy.

Summary
**NOW COMPLETE**
The former Death Eaters are dying of a curse. There's no cure, but Draco Malfoy and Theo Nott have a plan. After all, you can't be cursed by a Dark Mark that you never received, and Theo likes playing with time.
This was inspired by a throwaway comment in Chapter Two of Post Owls where Hermione wished for a time turner to save the boys before Draco was marked. Somewhere along the way it turned into a time-travelling Theomione.

Summary
Just like the many amazing Slytherin Harry Potter fics, this is my take on what would happen if Harry Potter was just a little bit smarter, a little bit crueler, and acted a little bit more like the Slytherin we knew he could be.
Takes inspiration from too many stories to count, but includes tropes like Slytherin Harry, awesome goblins, Dumbledore bashing, and Harry destroying any machinations laid out for him simply by existing and giving things a second thought. He refuses to be anybody's puppet.
After Harry was introduced to the wizarding world, some red flags were raised and questions left unanswered, so he decided to ditch his babysitter and return to Diagon Alley unsupervised. Harry returned to the bank and found that Dumbledore had been manipulating everything from behind the scenes. Eager to leave the Dursleys behind, Hadrian - he learned his name was - will do whatever it takes to get out from under Dumbledore's thumb, even if it means walking a darker path than expected of the Wizarding world's Savior.

Summary
Twelve years after the Second Wizarding War, Dr. Hermione Granger, world renowned healer and scientist, discovers the cure for lycanthropy. However, when she is kidnapped and tortured by escaped Death Eater, Fenrir Greyback, an explosion of magic sends her crash landing on the day of her own eleventh birthday. In a world where Hermione Granger is tasked with mentoring her younger self, stopping the Second Wizarding War before it begins, making a life for herself in a time to which she no longer belongs, and befriending Severus Snape if it's the last bloody thing she does, Hermione must confront the mistakes of her past and the dawn of a future she never expected.
(Or: the one where Hermione keeps a certain Dark Lord in a snow globe to shake when she needs to relieve stress, regularly gets high as a kite on Severus Snape's illicit weed stash, coaches her younger self on the art of seducing Draco Malfoy, and makes Crookshanks immortal.)
