Notes: This fic is based on the film Arrival (2016) directed by Dennis Villeneuve. It was such a pleasure to plonk my favorite boys down into the world of one of my favorite films for a while and see how they fared. I owe absolutely gargantuan thanks to: C, who inspires all the best plot points; B, who is the best cheerleader in the world, F, who is so brilliant and thoughtful, R, whose encouragement carried me through to the end, and C who wrangled all my commas into place. I love you all!
But the biggest thanks are due to the fest mods, who made participating such a delight.

Summary: Draco Malfoy is an expert in Ancient Runes at Oxford University’s College of Advanced Magical Studies. When he isn’t at the head of a lecture hall, he spends his time alone in cavernous libraries with only crumbling scrolls and runic dictionaries for company. One day, a group of Ministry officials interrupts his research with the aim of recruiting him to lead an elite team of investigators in a top-secret race against time to decrypt a set of recently uncovered ancient runes that threaten the very fabric of time. Draco feels certain he can save the world, if only he didn’t keep getting distracted by his co-lead, one Chief Cursebreaker Harry Potter. If only that distraction didn’t evolve into something so much more.
