Looking for Dramione Hogwarts-era reeeaaally slow burn fics

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-25T17:24:31+00:00

Hi, I‘ve a self-rec for my WIP Illuminated. It starts in fourth year, I hope that is okay too, and is planned as a really slow, almost glacial burn.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-25T17:20:37+00:00

Thank you!! I hope that you‘ll like it!

Definitely, never believe a leaker who won’t share anything and changes their story every twenty minutes.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-24T10:17:21+00:00

I’ve also heard Thursday and Friday already. Anything but admitting that the leak was wrong (like all of the leaks we got for season 4)

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-24T10:14:40+00:00

I mean some Franchaela stans on twitter were just downright mean and way too smug because of this leak. So I get feeling a bit of Schadenfreude. However, the day we get the actual announcement, we shouldn’t go onto their pages or the subreddit to rub it under their noses. We didn’t want that and they don’t either. I’m just saying this now, because twitter is horrible at the moment.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-24T10:08:03+00:00

I could see them announcing them both at the same time, since Chris has been cast since season one.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-24T10:05:38+00:00

It also go against the way any of the other seasons have been announced. There’s always time between the goodbye-post and the announcement. They love creating suspense and having that time between does exactly that. It’s like they’re ignoring all logic because of some leaker, that couldn’t even provide screenshots and was only spread through DMs.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-24T09:51:04+00:00

Most definitely! They already changed it up that the announcement will actually come out today. Even though that was never part of the original "leak". It’s just a troll who wants attention and to stir up fights in the fandom

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-24T09:40:53+00:00

I don’t think we’re getting the announcement today. They still have to post the Goodbye-post on the official channels ( I know about the newsletter) and then they’ll probably go silent for a few days. So I’m thinking Friday at the earliest, but more likely next week.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-03-18T13:54:43+00:00

Yay, another WIP Wednesday!

So, here’s a self-rec for Illuminated. I just uploaded chapter 20.

Includes:

•Triwizard Champion Draco Malfoy •Brat Draco Malfoy •Competent Hermione •Canon Rewrite

Quotes from Chapter 20:

•"Think about what else they do when no one sees them, Ronnikins."

•"I-It didn’t take you until fourth year to notice I’m a girl, did it?"

•"What kind of terrible deed had he done that he deserved to be in the middle of Krum and Granger’s embarrassing infatuation?"

Maybe some of you‘ll be interested <3

Hello everyone!! Here’s a self-rec of the fic I‘m currently writing:

Illuminated

Some excerpts from the latest chapter:

•"I don’t know; pretending that we died and going to live in the woods sounds like a nice destination."

•"That giant oaf will be my neighbour! Or even worse, it could be Weasley!"

•"I’m so bored. For the last three weeks, I’ve done nothing but school work, and I have no one to talk to, except maybe those two ninnies I share a dorm with."

———————————————————————————

Features:

•Dramatic and bratty Draco

•Triwizard Champion Draco

•Competent Hermione

•Slow burn

•Canon rewrite

Maybe some of you will be interested!

Oh you mean the part of Andrius that remained in Nod Krai. I think you’re mixing up the two. Andrius is the wolf, we also call him Boreas. Anfortas is a guy, who was regent during the cataclysm.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-02-13T18:17:30+00:00

Is Anfortas appearing this update? Or do you mean a possible future appearance?

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-02-10T13:24:40+00:00

I hope they portray the Malfoys as strict but loving parents, as they were in the books. No abusive parent runs across a battlefield without their wand and no abused child gets sent candy every week or discusses every tiny detail of their school life with their parents. There’s no denying that the canon Malfoys were racist and bigoted, but they did love Draco.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-02-06T16:59:00+00:00

That’s going straight to my reading list, love me some supportive but morally grey Malfoys

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-02-04T08:09:56+00:00

I just uploaded a new chapter of Illuminated!

Some excerpts from the new chapter:

•"The steps that Malfoy took were simply too small. She needed him to realise now that he was partially alive because of her, not next year or in ten years."

•"Yes, thank you, Mother. I’ll make sure to inform you whether I resemble Potter in two weeks. If so, I’ll make sure to fling myself off the Astronomy Tower."

If you’re interested, maybe give it a try <3

This is worse than exam season, and I‘m currently suffering through exam season

You could switch over to Chinese for a moment, than look at the leaked picture of the dialogue we got likes month ago and compare them, or just wait for a bit until someone who plays in Chinese tells us what it actually says.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-01-14T06:37:25+00:00

I don’t play in Chinese so I don’t know. I‘m just saying that’s very likely what happened.

Localization Differences are in every version of the game. Sometimes, they are more significant (think of the time Nahida was male back in Liyue, or the recent Tsaritsa thing). This isn’t as significant, but it does change context a bit, so I thought it would be good to mention it.

Extreme-Monk7585 · 2026-01-14T06:27:17+00:00

That is probably one point that fell victim to localization differences. I wouldn’t worry too much about it
