Shielded

10 years after the war, Draco Malfoy has discovered an Occlumency shield in his mind… and he hadn’t put it there. Suspecting it as a remnant of Voldemort's reign, he is forced to ask for help with lifting the shield before it causes irreparable damage to his brain from the only neuroscientist known to the magical world — Hermione Granger.

Hello everyone (if anyone)! Thank you so so much for giving this fic a chance. Before we start on this journey together, some disclaimers:1. This is my first time writing, and while it's been very fun, I'm sure there are lots of things I have messed up. I'm more than happy to receive constructive criticism, but please be gentle.2. I am a lazy being, and didn't want to do too much research for this. Thus, I am very liberal with skewing my representation of British geography, and am using my experience living 1 (one) year in the country as my guide for everything I'm describing. If locals find it inaccurate, I apologize, but hopefully it won't be so offensive that it draws you out of the story.3. In the same vein, I studied neuroscience, and that guides a lot of my neuroscientific representations in this, but what I'm portraying is by no means accurate. Best case I'm oversimplifying, worst case I'm totally warping real phenomena for the sake of the story. In the interest of not propagating misinformation, believe nothing.4. This book was inspired by An Inconvenient Vow by Alice Coldbreath, one of my favorite historical romance's. For anyone who enjoys virgin hero stories written by actual professionals, I'd highly recommend it.5. Finally, as this work evolves, I'll update tags as needed.
