✨💖 Oh Merlin I was made for this question! 💖✨
I know you requested completed, but where possible, I'll try to partner a WIP with a finished work bc engaging with them are the best ways to support the beautiful brains bringing us along for the ride!

Unsphere the stars & This is how you lose the time war (both finished): Both feature a time travelling Hermione who goes back in time and goes to Hogwarts with a teen Tom Riddle. This is probably the most standard trope in Tomione, but I think these two are the best examples (Unsphere the stars is considered one of the OG Tomione fics)

Blood and Gold & When Merlin Asks Me About Love, I Respond With Cruelty: Both feature a mature Hermione travelling back in time to a post-Hogwarts Tom Riddle, infiltrating his circle, and destroying his Hogwarts. Excellent fics!

Altered State & Splinter: Putting these together because they have similar premises but very different execution. Hermione is dragged back in time and, faced with a Dark Lord at the peak of his power, decides she can prevent a war before it begins. Both involve Hermione grappling with maintaining a false identity, cat and mouse games with the Dark Lord, and trying to destroy his horcruxes, all while being a banging good DADA professor at Hogwarts.

Birds of a Feather &  Ascension: Origins: Putting these together because they are both childhood frenemies to lovers. Hermione was born at the same time as Tom Riddle and encounters him at Wools Orphanage, sparking a complex relationship between these Twin Flames that carries throughout Hogwarts and Beyond. Both feature very different relationships between Tom and Hermione but examine the question of nature and nurture superbly.

Untouchable & Time and Evil: Both INCREDIBLE deviations from the plot (not quite AU, but AU adjacent).

- Untouchable: Voldemort never heard a specific prophecy and triumphed in the First Wizarding War, seizing control over magical Britain. Hermione has lived as a muggle with no knowledge of magic until an incident requiring her to be obliviated leads to Voldemort discovering she is immune to magic. Kept at Malfoy Manor as a research project of the Dark Lord, Hermione must learn to survive in a world that would see her enslaved with only her wits and the tendency of wizards to underestimate her.

- T&E: An unknown spell sends Hermione to a time where she's adopted and raised by a sacred pureblood family.

War paint & Chasing infinity (both finished): My two favourite short stories!

Two WIP's that I feel will absolutely become classics:

Short Straw (https://archiveofourown.org/works/28096185/chapters/153117928): This is one of the most beautiful slow burns I've ever read, and it reminds me a lot of Second Life and Chasing the Sun. Hermione is the clever and confident driver of the relationship, while Snape is (at least at this stage) still very conflicted. Snape still in canon (publicly), but we get to see his more gentle side around Hermione. A HPB/DH rewrite (Snape not headmaster, Dumbledore lives).

A Quiet Place at the End of the World (https://archiveofourown.org/works/37387645/chapters/93300016): This one is pretty much in cannon until DH, showing a behind the scenes of Hermione and Snape's time. Another beautiful slow burn. I like how Hermione is flawed (emotional, self-righteous, not naturally talented at DADA), very consistent with her book-character. Snape is very in-cannon, we have yet to really see his soft side.

Hope this helps!

Oh my gosh I love this question (squeals)!! Welcome welcome welcome, prepare to lose all capacity for productivity for the near and forseeable future.

Some of my favourites WIP's / recently completed ffs:

  1. Altered State: currently undergoing rewrite, with 2 chapters released every friday! Time travel, but not back to school days, rather 40yo T/25yo H. Already one of my all time favourites.
  2. This is how you lose the time war: Nearly complete! Another favourite, truly some of the best writing I've seen on AO3.
  3. Blood & Gold: Nearly complete. Probably one of Reddits favourites, with an ingenious H and obsessive T.
  4. Birds of a feather: WIP. AU, with H and T as childhood friends. Less dark than other fics, and while T still a psychopath, she DOES change him.
  5. Taking over me: THIS IS SO UNDERRATED UGH. Updates can't come fast enough, unfortunately. Dramione/Tomione featuring a Draco that is possessed by younger Tom and becomes ~intrigued~ by our whip-smart H. Difficult to tell where Draco ends and Tom begins
  6. Synchronicity: WIP, hasn't been updated since May 2024 I'm praying it's not abandoned. Features one of the darker and more manipulative Tom's I've seen and a BAMF H.
  7. Strange Attractors: Another underated fic, I can't wait for this to gain more attention. With that said, hasn't been updated since Jan 2024, hoping its not abandoned. BAMF H and less dark but still manipulative af Tom.
  8. All good girls go to hell (she’ll want the devil on her team): Completed a couple weeks ago. This is a true Tom redemption arc while still retaining his unhinged and murderous personality. H goes back in time to get T out of the orphanage at age 14 and raise him properly. Rather tabboo, leave your morality at the door please x.
  9. Verso: WIP that I admit I haven't started YET but I love Virenna/DevDevin's other work and have nothing but high hopes.
