    Summary

    manipulate: to control or play upon by artful, unfair, or insidious means especially to one's own advantage.

    Looking at them, no one would have ever thought that Theodore Nott and Hermione Granger were siblings. Even fewer people would have been able to tell you they were twins. Yet, over the summer before their fifth year, they learn that that's exactly what they are.

    Learning of a father that neither of them expected, secrets that Dumbledore never wanted uncovered, and alliances they needed to see to believe, it doesn't take them long to realize that everything they thought they knew, was a lie.

    Summary

    “I know I said sorry during the trial,” Malfoy said, “But let me apologize again.” His voice was quiet. Almost tender. “Truly. I’m sorry for everything.”

    She looked up then, meeting his gaze. So soft and open, she’d revisit this moment in her mind later, live in the warmth in his eyes. For now, she offered him a tight lipped smile. A single nod.

    “Thank you for apologizing.”

    Then, it was awkward, and she hated him a bit. For reopening a wound she’d long thought healed, for having the audacity to grow.

    or:

    One year before the announcement of the Marriage Law, Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy learn to appreciate the importance of a well-maintained working relationship.

    Summary

    After a devastating defeat in the Battle of Hogwarts, Hermione is one of only two members of the Order to survive. Taken prisoner and forced to await certain torture and death, she must explore the only remaining way to change the fate of the war: the past. Unfortunately, time is a very fickle thing.

    Hermione found a nearby chair and pulled it close to Malfoy’s sickbed. “Listen to me, Malfoy. I know you don’t know who I am, but—”

    He gave her an oddly amused half smirk that was no less annoying than usual, despite his current appearance. “No, I know who you are.”

    She swallowed nervously and replied, “You do?” If he knew her identity, there’s no way he’d think she was from the present. He’d probably just seen the present Hermione in class this week and she looked vastly different. If he knew she was time travelling, they could cause a temporal paradox and fracture the very nature of time itself. But why on earth would he be holding Hermione’s hand?
