ETL Echo Presents Beginning and End by mightbewriting Chapter 17: -1.750, -1.833, -1.916 May tick tock In yet another series of events Draco could never have imagined prior to entangling himself in a relationship with Hermione Granger, he found himself sitting in Harry Potter's home on the anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts.
ETL Echo Presents Beginning and End by mightbewriting Chapter 16: -1.833, -1.916, -2.000 April tick tock The third room they tackled in the guest hall ended up being quite the cunt, in Draco's professional opinion. It took almost a full day just to get the door open, and Hermione didn't take kindly to Draco's occasional—hourly—suggestion that perhaps if they called Theo, he could get them through. He wasn't sure if professional boundaries or personal pride kept her insisting that Theo's skill set wouldn't be required. Draco considered it a success that he even got her to admit that: yes, Theo could probably handle the wards if they needed to call him. Which they didn't, according to her.

It took nearly all of February, but they'd managed to clear the entire first guest room of its dark magic, cursed objects, and general disarray, righting it into a reasonably pleasant looking space once more. The second room didn't provide nearly the same challenge. This led to a strange sort of multitasking wherein Hermione worked through her decommissioning while simultaneously instructing Draco on how to cast a Patronus in what had to be her swottiest, most frustrating tone. If he didn't want to kiss her so badly most of the time, he might try jinxing her. Casting a Patronus was an impossible task and he'd never be able to do it.
ETL Echo Presents Beginning and End by mightbewriting Chapter 14: -2.000, -2.083, -2.166 Being on kissing terms with Hermione Granger involved far less kissing than Draco preferred. Mostly, it involved watching her work while wanting to kiss her and being told that no, there would be no kissing because she was being paid by the Ministry to perform a task. So bloody responsible all the time. It had started driving him mad.
