Maybe a regular ghost--which Scourge isn't. He doesn't really like Shadow's tone either; Dude's so high and mighty, he probably can't stand up straight for how big his head is! Scourge wobbles a bit with his arms in midair before he catches himself. Super coolly, he'd say. He's straightening his glasses to show he's totally not fazed when Shadow warps back over to him.

"Eeek!" That's just rude. Chaos Control is sort of OP. It's been ages since he fought any version of Shadow. Probably should've remembered how bad it is when you're not prepared for it. He does kick and squirm, thank you very much, like a bug caught on fly paper. Chaos Energy doesn't have the same pull on him that it did in his own world, but this direct of a--basically??--hit is still more than enough to make him feel like his body is being crushed entirely. Trash compactor style. Shit!!

"Y'know!" He wheezes the words out, flailing so he can dig his fingers into Shadow's wrists. "This is----kinda a--ss!" C'mon big M.E., Scourge could use some help! Whether it's because he asked so nicely ,or the impossible energy making up his whole deal recharging while he's not using it, or just the Chaos Emerald being so close he could reach it, Scourge can feel a zap of lightning course through him. Ding ding ding! Just enough, it's just enough--! He grits his teeth into an awful grin and makes his fur and skin disappear again, skeleton slipping through Shadow's fingers and dragging the Chaos Energy with it so he can reconstitute himself on the floor. PHEW! He actually says it.

"PHEW!" Cue a really miserable start at crawling away from the Bultimate Buttform. Yeeesh. Okay--"Sooo, uh. Newwww game plan." He's definitely not saying this to Shadow. S'much as he hates them now, he's really missing having a gang like the Suppression Squad. It's good Fiona isn't here though, fucking god. He's almost breathless, shooting the words out a few at a time. Like a cartoon spitting out teeth after they're punched. "I'll come--take your shit--when you're not so--Aggro." If Shadow tries to grab at him again, he does his best to become intangible. God, it sucks. It's been so long since he could feel anything. A slap in the face for all his efforts. Whatever. He'll get it all back. Just not today. "Gotta rest sometime, Shadow--" How he manages to still be cheeky after shit like this is anyone's guess.

Shadow's hand gets knocked away; as Scourge flickers so does his energy, and thus he can't turn around in time to punch him or something when Scourge starts shaking his shoulders fiercely. Ghosts can't even die, Scourge claims--this is the wrong person to say something like that to. Shadow knows very well that ghosts can die. He kills them all the time.

After Scourge gets his fun of shaking him for a bit (trying to dislodge the green Emerald from his quills?) Shadow warps just out of reach so Scourge's hands collapse on nothing but air. "It doesn't seem like a waste to me." Should he try for the hand-to-face-and-zap move a third time? "I can feel your already pathetic power draining." Shadow smiles. "'Owie?'" This guy's a joke! How is he going to explain this to Rouge later?

Shadow sighs, shoulders dropping as he thinks about that for a brief second, and then duty calls--he Chaos Controls practically up underneath Scourge, hand aimed upwards under the speedster's chin, intending on letting him dangle and kick while Shadow tightens the noose that is a Chaos-infused hand around his jaw.

Hiiii!

So I am newwww to the dramione world and unfortunately my adventure started with Manacled and was follow by The Auction. So now I am desperately searching a fic that is anywhere near as good as Manacled. I read that entireeee thing in three days because I was hooked!

I started both breathmints/battle scars and Isolation and as it turns out, asshole Draco does not do it for me, I need a bit more depth to be intrigued. (Don’t get me wrong, both lovely fics, but doesn’t have my preference)

So would you have any recommendations with a good in depth character build and a good plot?

Thaaaanks a million!!

Hi, try these:

Wait and Hope by mightbewriting - M, 12 Chapters - “Harry,” Hermione began, voice very controlled, but she could feel the blade of panic slicing at her vocal cords. “Why was Draco Malfoy just screaming bloody murder about his,” and the word almost strangled her as she said it, “wife?” Harry's green eyes blew wide. Healer Lucas pinched the bridge of her nose, clearly displeased with the recent series of events.“He was referring to you, my dear,” she said. “That was the other question you got wrong. Your name is Hermione Jean Granger-Malfoy.” Hermione had to be sedated again. [In which Hermione loses the last six year's worth of her memories, including the entirety of her relationship and marriage to Draco.]

And its prequel:

Beginning and End by mightbewriting - E, 48 Chapters - Years. Broken into months into weeks into days—into hours, minutes, seconds—into moments. Simple at one end, complex at the other. In Draco’s experience, moments, even when simple, had a habit of becoming irretrievable. Moments grew, stretched, multiplied into ages and eras that defined whole stretches of measurable time. Draco regretted several moments in his life, some within his control, some without: all of them irretrievable in nature. At a certain point, wedged between ‘what-ifs’ of his own devising, he’d stopped trying to keep track of those regrettable moments: now and then, pushing and pulling, coming and going, beginning and end. Moments were only moments for just as long. After that, he had no control. [In which Draco is forced to work with Hermione, falls in love, makes many mistakes, and eventually becomes his own man. A Draco POV prequel to Wait and Hope.]

The Politician's Wife by pir8fancier - M, 14 Chapters - This story is set twenty-three years after the fall of Voldemort. Our main characters are Ministry employees, middle-aged, and the majority of them not very happy.

Apple Pies and Other Amends by ToEatAPeach - M, 29 Chapters - It’s not until she’s brought a basil and strawberry sponge cake to Neville Longbottom and his new girlfriend, Hannah Abbott, a dozen rhubarb hand-pies to Luna and Xenophilius Lovegood, and another basket of ganache-covered muffins to Dean and Seamus, that Hermione admits to herself what she’s actually doing: she’s making a thing of this. It’s a veritable PTSD tour. With pastries. And hand-skimmed clotted cream. And she has no idea why she’s doing it, but it’s becoming very apparent that she is. Sometimes you're sad. Sometimes you need dessert. And sometimes, it's a little of both.

Measure Of A Man by inadaze22 - E, 42 Chapters -To truly know someone is to differentiate between who they once were, who they are now, and who they're capable of being. Hermione realises the duality of one man as she rectifies what she knows of the past and begins to understand the pieces of who Draco Malfoy is now: a father, a son, and a man.

Traditions by raven_maiden - E, 14 Chapters - She straddled him slowly, still biting her lip, her hands on his shoulders. He held her hips tightly as he stared up at her.“So beautiful,” he whispered, and she flushed prettily, like she always did from his compliments. “You never need to hide from me.” ** Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy fell in love during the war. One year later, they're heading home for the holidays so he can finally meet her parents. There's just one teeny little problem: her parents think they're both Muggles.

Love and Other Misfortunes by senlinyu - M, 23 Chapters - Draco Malfoy is dying. He's part-Veela and needs his mate to survive. Post-war, Hermione Granger is a workaholic, up to her eyeballs in legal activism on behalf of Magical Beings, and hasn't yet noticed that Malfoy is the Magical Being who needs her most.“Because I don’t want to be saved by you just because you feel like you have to.” He was properly furious now. “I’m in love with you." Hermione stared at him. She knew but somehow hearing him say it made the air shimmer with magic. "I’m in love with you,” he said again, despairingly. “And that means I want you to be as happy as you possibly can. And you won’t be, not with me.”

Remain Nameless by HeyJude19 - E, 51 Chapters - How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger. The monotony of Draco’s daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence. Hermione is living her life in fragments, separate pieces scattered about, and she can’t find a way to step back and let the full picture form. Why are morning meetings with Draco Malfoy the only thing that make sense anymore?

The Eagle's Nest by HeartOfAspen - M, 71 Chapters - Hermione's eighth year at Hogwarts is already going to be difficult in the aftermath of the war, but is further thrown into upheaval when Headmistress McGonagall orders a re-sorting of all students to promote inter-house unity. But when the Sorting Hat sends Hermione to Ravenclaw with Draco - and without Harry or Ron - how will she cope? [Epilogue? What epilogue?] Prevalent alchemy.

Gravity by floorcoaster - T, 10 Chapters - It's about arranging stacks of books, wall colours, and jumping off a cliff. Draco/Hermione

The Fool, the Emperor, and the Hanged Man by ianthewaiting - E, 28 Chapters - Ten years after the fall of the Dark Lord, Hermione Granger leads of life of self-imposed obscurity, that is, until the day Headmistress Minerva McGonagall is murdered and a certain 'hero' is responsible.

Don't Take This Sinner by hexmionegranger - E, 25 Chapters - Hermione Granger couldn’t help but think that no matter how difficult they had all figured rebuilding their society would be, no one was expecting anything quite like this. It was another stark reminder that just when things were finally starting to level out, they would never truly have peace and stability. Her entire life in the magical world had been full of shocks and stumbles, and this one seemed like the biggest of them all. A post-war Dramione marriage law fic... with a twist!

Seven Days in April by inadaze22 - M, 7 Chapters - They were still the same people with the same problems on either side of a bathroom door.

He Becomes by Abroma - T, one-shot - Things keep worming their way into Draco's heart and, to be honest, he's sick of it. Or: Draco fosters bunnies to impress a co-worker.

Aurelian by BittyBlueEyes - T, 43 Chapters - Two years after the war, a young stranger pays a visit to the burrow. His arrival alone is baffling, but the news he brings of an upcoming war turns the world upside down. Hermione's quiet, post-war life will never be the same.

Revert by SUPRNTRAL LVR - M, 25 Chapters - Six months post-war, Malfoy is in serious trouble. He's on the run from the Ministry, Death Eaters, and a deadly curse which is eating him alive. When he hits rock bottom, a change in fortune lands him in 12 Grimmauld Place under the Ministry's custody - and forces Hermione to remember the secrets they've both kept for years. Dramione, Sick!Draco, flashbacks to Hogwarts

Heavy Lies the Crown by floorcoaster - M, 36 Chapters - For seven years, Draco has carried the weight of the world on his shoulders, and just when he thinks he'll be released, something happens that will make him seek help from the last person he could have imagined.
