Slytherin uni student. Should probably be doing assessments right now, tbh.

I update sporadically.

The stories:

Darkness Underneath: Bellatrix/Hermione. Haven't updated in forever. Not happy with my original plan for it, so yeah. Re-working that.

A Question of Time: Minerva/Hermione. Time-travel. My baby! Big plans for this one.

On Canvas: The ramblings and thoughts of Rufus Scrimgeour's Ministerial Portrait. Rufus/Hermione vibes.

A Special Place: Minerva/Hermione friendship/coming of age type thing. There are feels.


cave ab homine unius libri - beware of anyone who has just one book


~on break from uni in 3.5 weeks, will hopefully squeeze in an update or two then~
