As promised, Year IV, Term II within 48 hours. No promises when Year V drops, but it will again drop in much the same manner, with both terms coming within the span of 48 hours. Big revelations this chapter, as well as the iconic moment when Hermione is taken under the Black Lake. Spoiler on slide two 🤍🫣

From Hogwarts With Contempt (M, 21.2k words, 9/15 Chapters)

A look at Draco's time at Hogwarts from what his father hears about (and sometimes doesn't).

Summary:

Hogwarts wasn’t quite what Draco Malfoy expected.

It’s colder, draughtier, and far more Gryffindor-infested than he was prepared for.

In a series of scathing letters home, Draco documents his years at Hogwarts — from the incompetence of the staff to the baffling popularity of Potter and the infuriating brilliance of a bushy haired Muggle-born witch.

If Hogwarts won’t bend to his will, at least his father will hear all about it.

Snippet from Chapter 8:

P.P.S. You were right in thinking Dumbledore wouldn’t allow everyone to compete in the Triwizard Tournament. Pity, I was hoping Weasley would be chosen so he could die in a tragic accident — or well, maybe not die — that would make a martyr of him. Maybe disfigurement. But Granger does have a soft spot for ugly gingers — in fact, the uglier the better — so maybe it is all for the best none of us can compete. Not that I ever would. Who needs glory when you can sit back and commentate on their misery? Besides, it’s not like I’m after attention. Not anymore.

Live on AO3 01.03.2025

Sometimes, from within the darkest shadows, the brightest flame emerges, and thus, The Phoenix is born. 

This story is dark, messy, and not for the faint of heart. But it has lived in my head for so long, I wanted to just get it out there so I can move past the first 20k words I have written.

PSA: The Veni, Vidi, Amavi Podfic is live! 🤍

Sneak Peek Snippet: 

“I…” She stopped herself, shaking her head sharply. “I need to go.” “Go where, exactly?” he asked, his tone lighter now, almost teasing. “You’ve been wandering in circles for the last thirty minutes.” As if trying to prove his point, she felt his magic caress her ankles, and suddenly they were not as close as they had been only moments earlier. And he’d transfigured her heels for her. Her cheeks flushed with heat, and she straightened herself as best she could, refusing to meet his eyes. “Just… Move,” she muttered, brushing past him, far quicker now that she didn’t have to worry about her heels getting caught between the cobblestones. She was uncertain why she wasn’t surprised when she felt his presence behind her, and despite herself, she didn’t tell him to stop or go away. There was something about him being here on this night; she was inclined to let the night play out as it had intended. After all, was serendipity not a form of magic, even if it was theoretical?

Valentine's Day Drabble: Love & Vengeance

“Fifty Galleons she pretends she only stopped by to see Lavender,” Harry says, drumming his fingers.

“Not a chance.” Ron leans back on his chair to keep Hermione’s wandering gaze from finding his. “One hundred says she walks in, chickens out and demands to use Lavender’s restroom instead. Ten more if she scowls all the while.”

“Who needs enemies with a friend like you?” Blaise chuckles.

“I’ll take that action,” Theo smirks. “A thousand says she goes through with it and buys the most ridiculous bouquet in the shop.”

Harry side-eyes his boyfriend. It’s only been a month since they finally made it exclusive, and three weeks of it have passed simply coming to terms with the fact that their best friends have been dating a year in secret, and neither has known about it. 

It only made sense to tell everyone else as well once they knew.

“She won’t even admit she’s seeing Malfoy,” Harry mutters, watching Hermione pace in front of the store.

“Draco does like grand displays,” Pansy hums.

“That’s what you find outrageous?” Ron snorts. “Not the thousand Galleons?”

“Shut the fuck up,” Ginny hisses, leaning forward. “She’s going in.”

Hermione hesitates by the peonies, fiddling with a stem, before Lavender corners her with a bright smile.

“She’s gonna bolt for the door,” Blaise chuckles.

“Oh, Merlin,” Pansy laughs, watching Lavender guide hermione behind the counter. “Weasley, you really do know your ex.”

Ron blushes. “We hardly—”

“Nope, she’s storming back out,” Ginny says, half-standing before Blaise yanks her down.

“You’d never survive in Slytherin, Red.”

“Who says I’d want to?” Ginny scowls but keeps her eyes on her friend.

“Oh, fuck,” Theo groans, sliding down in his seat. “Draco.”

Harry smirks, his fingers finding Theo’s. “Good thing we’re disillusioned.”

“How’d you know they’d be here tonight?” Ginny asks, scanning the darkening alley.

“I stole her planner.” Ron shrugs.

“White roses,” Pansy sighs, her gaze fixed on where Hermione stands looking particularly frazzled by Lavender’s line of questioning. “Granger is hopeless.”

“Is that…” Theo narrows his gaze. “Bird's-foot trefoils?”

“She’s going to make such an entertaining Lady Malfoy,” Blaise snorts, draining his glass of wine. 

At the collective silence from the Gryffindors, he adds: “They symbolize vengeance.”

They all turn as Hermione exits, clutching her roses tightly. Draco steps forward, catching her gaze, and she hurries to hand him the bouquet. He grins, tucking the flowers under his arm before leaning in to wrap his arms around her.

“Ugh.” Ron grimaces. “Let me know when he’s done sticking his entire head down her throat.”

“Wait, where did—” Pansy starts but stops as her attention snags on Lavender, who steps out of her shop and walks across the cobbled expanse between them.

“Hermione said this is for you,” Lavender says, smirking as she sets the trefoils between their empty glasses. “The poem is heartfelt. Happy Valentine’s Day.”

Theo chuckles, nudging the bouquet away from him. “Who’s brave enough to open it?”

Harry and Ron shudder. “Not it.”

Ten people I want to get to know better…

Thanks @starsoforionwrites for tagging me!👀

Last song: It's a Sin - Pet Shop Boys.

Favourite colour: I've always been a fan of a nice deep purple, my taste in colours are more on the gothic side of the spectrum, red, black. However, since rekindling my love of Pottah there's been a not so subtle uptick in green clothes purchases.

Last movie: Shaun of The Dead. It's a classic and one of my favourite comfort films, if you've not seen it, watch it - Edgar Wright has some stunning cinematography and almost every line of dialogue is genius.

Last TV show: Supernatural - I tend to watch things in the background while I work and am on my first re-watch of the entire series.

Last book: I'm going to name a fic - "Oh God, Not Again!" Which is about a reincarnated Harry fucking with everyone, including paying Fred and George to toss as many snowballs as possible at Quirrel.

Sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet! Which is a massive problem with the braces, my toothbrush and I are more than well acquainted.

Last thing I googled: "How old are the characters in Ice Age?" I may have spent the entire day bed rotting yesterday and watched all five of them. The lack of aging in this kids film franchise frustrates me to no end! Oh and I feel stupid, when I was a kid, that cave painting scene led me to believe Manny was the baby mammoth, but now my one braincell has grown in size, the truth makes more sense with his depression.

Current obsession: Dramione, Podficcing...DODM? I've had a second wind with my love of Dramione after introducing my closest friend to the fandom, she has been sending me whole podcast length voice notes about her first fic - The Disappearances of Draco Malfoy. I had to start her off with one of my favourites!

Looking forward to: This year continued the pattern of shite events from last year, so I'll keep it to small things that keep me going. As a massive fan of the Jurassic Park franchise, I'm excited for the new film coming out in July, as well as the live action versions of How to Train your Dragon and Lilo & Stitch. In March there's a museum sim game I've had my eye on since the announcement, and coinciding with that, I'm taking the entire month of March off work to concentrate on podficcing, relaxing, reading and hopefully, blowing the cobwebs off my WIP again. Last but never least, I'm really looking forward to recording Book 4 of Lionheart, catching up with the current chapters, continuing to share fics with my friend and watching her own podfic hobby grow.

Chapter 6 of From Hogwarts With Contempt is Live & The Tag to be reckoned with is:

Secret Relationship (Within Canon) 🤍

Starring Theodore Nott 🐍 “Shank The Wank” 🐈

[writetimewrongmuse]

I am so excited to set up my 2025 TBR. It's hands down the best reading tracker I've come across and makes setting following WIPS and sorting rereads from new reads so easy.

Highly recommend taking a peek at it to see if it will also work for you.

It is here! Version 2.0 of my fantastic Huurre's Fanfiction Reading Log!

What has changed? A lot!

Apps Scripts for doing some of the things for you, for example picking up fanfic's name and tag information from open fics in AO3. For more questions about this, especially relating scraping, please check my faq from my new website.

More comprehensive statistics with better logics.

For more detailed list of new features will be published here and in the website within next 30 hours because I'm already running late from the time I have given for the release. :'D

I have two versions of the file available:

Starting 2024: For anyone who has logged their reading during 2024 and wants to move their history from 2024 to this new file.

Starting 2025: For anyone who wants to start from the "clean table".

For full setup guide, please see the link below:

I've also set up Discord server for this. It is complete work in progress for now, but it is also in the place where you can suggest what direction to take it!

And with any problems, don't hesitate to contact me!

Now, I'll let you see and look for the file. Have fun!

Year I - Term I - Part II, From Hogwarts With Contempt.

I don’t think I’ll be posting all the years, but maybe an occasional letter or two from the following years 🐍💚

[writetimewrongmuse]

Just a little baby fic, in which Lucy hears all the tea from baby Draco.

If you head over to AO3, I just posted chapter 5 💚

[writetimewrongmuse]

Just the best reading tracker I’ve come across, and I’m waiting with bated breath for the new one. Whenever it’s ready ♥️♥️

Working on it!!!

Wiuh, the biggest problem with version 2.0 is with the yearly statistics tab. I wanted it to have so much more and to be perfect, but I couldn't get the script to work fast enough and most of the time it was cancelled due to the time it took. I'm not sure how much people would have wanted that feature and I will work on it later, because honestly, at this point, I just want to get everything well enough so I can publish this and sadly it meant that I have to leave some of the stuff out.

I wanted to avoid crazy long functions, but I can't do that now.

I wanted to get yearly statistics also by words, but it seems almost impossible with the help and knowledge I have at the moment.

I wanted this to notice multi-fandom fics, but it's also more difficult than I thought.

I don't think this is perfect when I get this out of my hands, but I'm sure I will think it's good enough, it works, it helps people.

And just to tease something: I got an idea to make this a real website last summer when I was thinking about how to make this better. I gave up but now that I'm feeling better and I'm working only part-time probably until next summer, I started to look for it. It's not actually that difficult and not even as expensive as I thought. I've probably said this at some point earlier but I'll say it again: I will not want people to pay for using the tools I've made to make reading fanfiction (maybe?) easier and funnier. But yes, that's also something I'm keeping myself busy with, although at the moment it's just learning the necessary skills. It will be a long process and I'd be optimistic to say that it would be ready before the end of 2025. I think the end of 2026 is more likely.

But for now: I'm off to fix the Yearly Statistics tab because after that? I don't see that there's anything else that I'd need to do, mostly just some cleaning out and making sure that basic instructions are ready.

If I get this fixed tonight, I think there's a good chance that I'd be ready to publish this next weekend, just before Christmas, as an early Christmas present!

Completed: The Stowaway Malfoy - Mission T.I.T.S is a Success.

Mission T.I.T.S is a success. Eeeeek 😭♥️

Wow it’s been an insane six months. I suppose, technically nine months for me since I started writing TSM in March, but it has been such an honour bringing this story to life. I cannot believe there are those of you who have been on this journey with me from day one. I am just so grateful for all your love, 

Thank you to everyone who’s taken the time to read it and for all the love you’ve all sent me along the way. This story is richer for it and I hope it ends on a high note, even if it’s a little bittersweet.
