    Summary

    Hermione Granger is adrift. Her job feels pointless, her relationship feels more like habit than love, and everyone else seems to have ‘moved on’ while she’s emotionally stuck in 1998. She finds a shop that feels misplaced in time, and picks up a journal. When she begins to write, someone writes back. A foe from the opposite side of the war, who is quickly becoming her closest friend.

    Draco Malfoy is spiralling because it turns out redemption arcs don’t come with an instruction manual. He is lost, careening along with no purpose, no life outside of work. In a shop full of broken and forgotten things, he comes across a journal of his own. In the ink, he finds a new friend, a woman who believes he can be something greater than he was.

    There's just one problem: they have no idea who the other person truly is.

    And seriously, don't ask why he's called Steve.

    One for his banishment. One for his enslavement.

    Summary

    “That’s it, just no. I’ve done my duty to the Wizarding world. I gave up my childhood, I gave up my dreams, and for what… a tiny cubicle in which I put the Ministry stamp on endless permits. No more. I quit. Effective immediately. I think you’ll find I have ample vacation saved up. I’ll owl human resources on where they can send my check.”

    She spent her childhood fighting a war she didn't start. Now life is passing her by. What will she find when she makes choices not based off expectation?
