I'm sorry I'm not writing currently. I'm in a bad place mentally. I need to get past some things and I'll be back.

Was really hoping something would happen and it didn't.

Chapter 22: Shore Leave

Hiro turned on his flashlight again, scanning your face with that professional, overly detailed focus of his. You sat perfectly still, awaiting judgment.

Finally, he gave a solemn nod. “Damn. You did it.”

Rick, approvingly, muttered, “That is some top-tier deception.”

The sigh of relief that escaped your lips was almost imperceptible. It was done. The damage was covered, at least enough to last a few hours. But just as you let your guard down, Rick’s voice came, light and easy.

“…Shame it won’t matter.”

Chapter 21: The Lekar

Your fingers curled slightly against your sleeve, grip precise, controlled. You were used to being shut out of meetings you didn’t belong in—but this? This was different. You’d bled for this fight. Put yourself on the line. And now? Now you weren’t trusted to sit at the table? Was that really the Detapa’s Council’s decision? Or was it Dukat’s?

Chapter 20: Boxes of Tea

A soft, innocuous ping. Rick’s brow furrowed slightly. His eyes flicked down, scanning the screen— And his expression shifted. Not immediately. Just a slow, dawning realization, like something profoundly wrong was slotting into place. His mouth parted slightly— Hiro, glancing over, went completely still.

Chapter 5: Footsteps in Cluj

Charlie, still thrown, glanced at George. “Is she always like this?”

George deadpanned, “She’s actually being quite tame.”

Charlie exhaled, shaking his head, but he couldn’t quite smother the amusement tugging at the corner of his mouth.

Meanwhile, the men around them—who had initially dismissed her as some fragile outsider—were reassessing.

Chapter 19: Dropping of Eaves

The moment he was out of earshot, Rick let out a long, low exhale.

“So that was tense.”

You shot him a look. “No, it wasn’t.”

Rick arched a brow. “Yeah, no. That was tense.”

Hiro rubbed a hand down his face, exasperated. “I’m literally just trying to fix a ship. Can you not have some kind of power struggle right here?”

Rick, still watching the door Dukat had exited through, muttered, “I mean, the man is clearly into you, but yeah, sure, let’s call it a power struggle.”

Chapter 2: Fate Intervenes

Draco shot Pansy a glare, but she just smiled wider.

Then, just as he was about to drag himself back into dignity, Hermione walked past. Still glowing. Still dangerous. She didn’t see them—didn’t see what she’d done, what she’d broken. Her proximity hit like static—too close, too bright. The scent of sandalwood sharpened, braided with the clean salt of sweat and something softer—something Hermione.

Chapter 18: Mark Anthony

"Come along, Damar. Let’s go see your boss, hmm?"

Damar stiffened.

Not a flicker of discomfort. A full-bodied pause. Shoulders squared, jaw flexing.

Mark barely seemed to notice.

Or maybe he did notice—and just didn’t care.

The Cardassian officers in earshot certainly noticed.

Chapter 17: Collusion

The air was the same—thick with the sharp tang of Cardassian metals, the hum of overworked systems vibrating underfoot—but the energy in the corridors had shifted. You felt it the moment you stepped through the airlock. They had heard. Cardassians weren’t known for their loose tongues, but they thrived on meticulous record-keeping and quiet observation. And right now, their observations were focused entirely on you.

Imma be real with you guys, this is literally why nothing works right now.

Hiring on personality instead of competence?

That's why your parcel was redirected to another country because whoopsie doopsie, Clarence the new hire has a dazzling smile but doesn't know what the fuck he's doing.

I have an rbf and a warm personality. 🥲

Chapter 4: Welcome to the Underworld

Charlie Weasley leaned against a weathered post, arms crossed, soot smeared high on his cheekbone like careless war paint. He was dressed in dragon-hide gear that had clearly seen better days, the edges scorched, the sleeves rolled up to reveal tanned, muscular forearms covered in old burns. His easy grin appeared the moment he saw them, but his sharp blue eyes swept over the group, immediately taking stock.

"Well, well," Charlie drawled, striding forward. "My favorite set of troublemakers. And their long-suffering chaperone."

Chapter 16: Medbay

Damar blinked once.

His gaze flicked from you to Bashir to Hiro, as if just now realizing that he had been sent to oversee a negotiation where one side had already won. Bashir’s expression did not shift. “No, no. Seventy-two.” You pursed your lips, tilting your head like you were running a calculation. “Hmm. But if we’re counting down from when I was first checked into medbay after the incident in question—” you said, voice slow, deliberate, “—that would mean thirty-three are remaining.” Hiro choked on his drink.

I really want to write but also I've been on such and insane writing spree lately that I don't think I'm in the space to write quality right now.

I'm a goddamn writing junkie.

I can't focus or anything, it's driving me insane.

I'm thinking this has to be covid brainfog or something, I'm not feeling right.

Chapter 15: Loitering

The chair groaned faintly as you sank into it, the stiffness in your ribs flaring, but you didn’t let it show. Across the command center, the air was thick—waiting. You could feel the weight of it pressing into the silence, the way Damar’s words still lingered, the way too many eyes flicked toward you, then away, then back again.

No one spoke.

Not at first.

Draco Malfoy x Hermione Granger

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences

Draco Malfoy was doing just fine, thank you—brooding tastefully over Hermione Granger from a safe, delusional distance. Up until Pansy joined a ballet class, found Granger mid-grand jeté, and decided to fix his life with tights, manipulation, and brunch plans. No one is safe. Especially not Draco.

Chapter 1: Caffeinated Surveillance

Draco stared, but Blaise wasn’t offering the screen just yet. No, he was soaking it in, eyebrows lifting, teeth catching his lower lip in absolute theatrical delight.

“She’s in a white leotard,” Blaise narrated, slowly. “No bra. And I do mean none. She’s leaving very little to the imagination, Draco.”

Draco stilled. Completely.

Chapter 3: The First Slip

She was watching them now, the way she always did when she was trying to gauge something—trying to assess the give and take, trying to determine just how much control she had in a dynamic that was, by its very nature, two against one. And the twins knew that. Knew that, despite how sharp and certain she was, she was still testing this—testing them.
