Summary
Following a chance encounter in Knockturn Alley, Hermione begins exchanging letters with the last person she ever expected to befriend: Draco Malfoy. Back-and-forth they go, trading insults and stories. While Hermione convinces herself that she's only trying to reform a misguided Death Eater, the truth is much fuzzier.
And Draco is already engaged.
To add to their impossibilities, Hermione is 1,388 miles away from Wiltshire, spending a year abroad in Romania at a Dragonology fellowship with Charlie Weasley. As the seasons change, Hermione becomes increasingly torn between her head and her heart. Falling in love through letters, yet finding freedom abroad.
Or: A post-war love triangle themed around letter writing, dragon riding, and an inescapable soulmates prophecy.

Summary
Reasons why being in love with Draco Malfoy is wholly unacceptable:
1. He is insufferable
2. He is married
3. He is her academic rival
4. Now, unhappily, he is also her colleague, and they are meant to be collaborating
5. Professional boundaries ought to be observed with colleagues
5b. Especially when her application for tenure is fully dependent on forging a successful academic collaboration with said colleague
6. It is not compatible with her five-year plan (see items 1-5 for specifics)Hermione has a deeply compelling list of reasons not to be in love with Draco Malfoy. To her dismay, when her department chair at St. Mungo's Medical School forces her into close proximity with Malfoy for the sake of undertaking an alchemy collaboration, she begins to develop romantic feelings she never meant to have.
Desperate to remedy this lamentable affliction, she invents a potion that can reverse the state of being in love. The only trouble is, she can’t seem to bring herself to take it.
Or: In which Hermione tries to force quit being in love.
