Chief Warlock Hermione Granger-Malfoy and her husband, Auror Draco Malfoy, looking over the week’s to-do list.
I wasn’t planning on posting this yet, but as of today I have 800 followers! Thank you so much!! I appreciate all of you so so much! With all of your likes and comments over the past year and a half you’ve made drawing and posting art fun for me again. I feel like I have a reason to finish things for the first time in a looong time. So, have some early art! :D
Full image, and the original sketch, under the cut.
So, I personally don’t consider most of what happened in the movies canon (Probably because I read the books before the movies came out–well, books 1-4 anyway). As such I usually don’t think of Hermione having her Mudblood scar. However, given its prevalence in fan fiction, I find myself spending a lot of time thinking about what would happen if Bellatrix hadn’t finished the job, so to speak. What if she got interrupted (ideally by Draco), and Hermione only has half a slur on her arm?
The question then becomes how much of the word would be there? And would the significance of the scar be different for her, or others, depending on how complete, or incomplete, it is? Like, if she only had “Mu” or “Mudbloo” or “Mud” etc. (or what if Bellatrix spelt the word wrong?)
Because I feel like it would change a few things in how she, and others, approached/viewed the incident (especially if someone interrupted the process of her getting it in the first place).
Summary: Christmas with the Weasleys is, inexplicably, one of Draco’s favourite holiday traditions—but this year it has nothing to do with Molly Weasley’s baking and everything to do with a certain red-haired dragon tamer that he and Hermione find themselves drawn to.
Title: That Secret That We Know Rating: M Length: 7,483 Synopsis: It hasn’t been an easy year, and Hermione Granger is having a hard time mustering a holiday mood. When she throws a Stragglers’ Christmas Eve, she doesn’t expect her work partner Draco Malfoy to be her only party guest. And he’s brooding at her again. She never should have brought him to that blood drive.
Author: @senlinyu Title: Impress Upon You Rating: T Length: 3997 Artist: @mia Summary: Hermione had been in her office, up to her ears redrafting a trade agreement with Denmark, and Malfoy came swanning in, wanting to ‘consult’ with her. She’d let him in, assuming that he was there about the trade agreement, given that their departments had been working together on it for over a year. That he was there to be useful. He was not. If—he’d casually framed the hypothetical, as he seated himself uninvited into an armchair and conjured an elaborate tea service—if someone wanted to try doing something Muggle, how would they go about it? https://archiveofourown.org/works/28042821 Full Collection: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/DecktheHallswithDramione_2020
