Summary
She was supposed to be a footnote in his worldview. He was supposed to be a name she erased.But change doesn’t start with declarations.It starts in margins.In smoke drifting between towers.In cursed scrolls and annotated books.It starts when two people who were never meant to understand each other begin to listen.An incredibly slow-burn, no-Voldemort Dramione where no one’s trying to save the world—just pass their classes, reform the curriculum, and maybe rewrite a few beliefs. Set in a quiet Hogwarts where the only thing at stake is what kind of people they want to become.
