    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.”

    Summary

    Kukri kept sending me media about “Robbing the Hood” and telling me to watch it, that I’d understand what was going on better if I did, but I had no interest in watching people rob Hoods, whatever those were. I didn’t like robbing in real life (I did it because I had to not because I wanted to) and I doubted I’d like it in media.

     

    Shortly after hacking its governor module, a rogue SecUnit is involved in an ill-fated space battle and finds itself alone save for the company of a mourning raider ship bot pilot. It would like to spend the rest of its life watching media in what remains of the ship's crew quarters, but it turns out that "the rest of its life" wouldn't be long at all without the money to pay for proper maintenance. There seems to be only one way to get that money.
