Summary
Harry Potter died a hero. Five years later, Hermione Granger is still trying to survive it.
When a mysterious ring bearing the Potter crest begins to scream inside the Department of Mysteries, Hermione is summoned as its heir. But the sound isn’t just noise to her; it’s calling to her, singing of love and grief, of something lost and something waiting.
She doesn’t know why it knows her name.
She only knows she’s going to follow where it leads.
Written for the Angst prompt of the Harmony Out of the Ordinary fest and following the path of Matthew Perryman Jones' song, Lovers in Another Life.
TW: suicidal thoughts, eating disorders, deep depression

Summary
Nineteen years later, everything has changed.
The war is long over, most of the children are at Hogwarts, and the Golden Trio is still intact, but the ties that bind them have frayed and reformed in unexpected ways. Marriages have ended. Friendships have deepened. Old wounds have scarred over...or haven’t.
Harry Potter is Head Auror. Hermione Granger is a celebrated Healer specializing in magical pregnancies. They are each other’s truest companion...then a new, insidious threat emerges from the shadows of pureblood history-- one that places Hermione directly in its sights.
As Harry races to protect the one person he cannot bear to lose, he begins to understand that what’s at risk isn’t just her life. It’s everything he never dared to hope they could be.
Post-Epilogue. Canon-compliant until it’s not. Harmony slow, slow burn with heartache, healing, and the long road home.

Summary
After several years as Professor of Transfiguration at Hogwarts, Hermione Granger is used to celebrating her birthday in relative obscurity. But this year, fellow professor Harry Potter actually makes an effort.
The seemingly innocuous Rite of Equal Measures inside his gift, however, is not just a ritual of balance and calm to be completed in the days before the Equinox. Instead, it delivers an unshakable tether, the subjects of which are experiencing nothing that could be described as "equilibrium" in front of a castle full of witnesses.
Written for Hermione's Haven HavenHarvest Fest.
Prompt:
• The Forgotten Equinox RitualWhile reading an old book on magical folklore, Hermione discovers a reference to an ancient equinox ritual that has been lost to time. When she attempts to recreate it in a controlled environment, she accidentally awakens a slumbering guardian spirit bound to the changing seasons. Now, with the equinox fast approaching, Hermione must find a way to complete the ritual properly—or risk disrupting the natural balance of magic.

Summary
It’s been raining for days, and Hermione Granger insists she’s only happy when it rains. Also- she claims she’s only happy when it’s complicated—which works out nicely, because Harry Potter has never done anything simple in his life.
She wants to go to a warehouse grunge party for her 24th birthday. He wants to keep up. Somewhere between the flannel shirt, the rain, the eyeliner, and the treacle tart, things get... messy.
Post-Hogwarts. Post-other people. Pre-everything else.
Emotional intimacy, poor decisions, and the kind of tension that doesn't clear up with the weather.Written for the HP Drizzle Fest.
Prompt:
Only Happy When It Rains - Garbage

P&Q Dribbles and Drabbles by P_and_Q_Drabbles (Prill_and_Quill), Prill_and_Quill
Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
06 Sep 2025
Summary
Vignettes created for various prompts/ practice- mostly 200 words-ish.
Harmony, mostly, but a Druna or two.
Mind the varying degrees of rating - general to explicit.
Some of these were written a long time ago and I've just now figured a place to put them. The older ones are longer than 200 words but less than 500.
Drabbles are my favorite thing to write.
(I happily take requests.)

Summary
Harry turns forty, surrounded by plotting children and a wife who should have been a Slytherin, and he's probably going to fall off a broom before the day is over. What do you get the man who has everything he wants?
You keep him wanting.
(This is a day late and a few sickles short to be part of the "Happy Birthday, Mister Potter" challenge, but sometimes owls get lost with the post, and presents arrive a bit later than expected.)

Summary
Lily remembered her sister, how there had been a time she was curious and delighted about magic, before it slowly sank in that she could look and not touch.
The last thing Petunia had said to Lily before she died was a chilly goodbye, ending a holiday dinner where they'd had a shrieking row in the entryway. Petunia had said 'freak' and Lily had hissed 'better than this, better than this being my whole fucking world, Tune, do you even see yourself, are you happy--'
And now here was Dudley Vernon Dursley fussing himself to sleep as Lily walked the halls of the Godric's Hollow house. His tiny soft hands with their tiny soft fingernails curled under her chin, the same way Harry's always had.
She passed James, who was gently bouncing his way up the hall the opposite way. "I think he's asleep," James mouthed over Harry's tousled head. His hair was the same mess, his head bent down as he peered at his sleeping son.
Lily stopped where she stood, her nephew heavy on her chest, her husband smiling, her sister buried. "James," she said. "How are we going to do this?"

Summary
After his name came out of the Goblet of Fire, Harry woke to a disturbing reality. The wizarding world only saw him as an expendable pawn, his carefree attitude towards studying left him struggling to survive, and he had never truly appreciated the one, constant companion at his side—Hermione Granger. It was high time for change. Gradual Grey!HHR.
