    Summary

    Bellatrix is just inside the doorway, all sharp edged femme—long legs, dangerously tall heels, and black curls draped over devistating, sanity ruining, bare collarbones.

    The dress is a deep emerald—because of course it is—clinging tight till the skirt flares out, a somewhat daring off the shoulder neckline. She couldn’t look the part of the mysterious, beautiful, unspeakably dangerous client more if she'd been leaning on Hermione’s desk, smoking, wearing a hat with a black veil just over her eyes.

    “What—” Hermione shakes her head to try to clear it. “What are you doing here Black?”

    “Well Granger,” she leans back against the inside of the doorway. “I think someone is trying to kill me.”

     💜

    Hermione is happy, or at least largely content, in her job as Wizarding Britain's Premier (read: only) PI. Or, was before a “redeemed” Bellatrix Black showed up at her office.

    It's fine. She can stay professional, even if it is the witch who tortured her. It's not like it's her first case—She'll just keep her distance, figure out what's going on, and collect the (hopefully) huge payday. She'll manage.

    At a minimum, she's had worse plans.

    When a magical accident during Bellatrix Lestrange's trial binds her soul to Hermione Granger's, the war heroine finds herself responsible for the woman who tortured her. Forced into impossible proximity, hatred becomes understanding, and understanding becomes something far more dangerous.

    Summary

    “I do prefer it when you do other things to my skin.”

    And once again, Hermione’s brain was gone. Off. In the gutter. Derailing itself with horrifying efficiency.

    No.

    She tore her eyes away, mentally superimposing the image of her grandfather at Christmas – spectacularly pissed, stark bollock naked under a tartan robe, arguing with the angels in the tree. Still not enough. So she added the memory of that one chapter in Magical Maladies and Their Management, the one with close-up photos of Spattergroit pustules. That did the trick.

    Refreshed, centred, pure of thought, she cleared her throat and continued the tour.

    Or: Bellatrix Lestrange is supposed to stop committing crimes. Hermione Granger is supposed to stay impartial. Neither of them is very good at following instructions. There’s a dead man, a collapsing investigation, and a rapidly collapsing sense of professional distance.

    (Works both as a sequel to Of Magic, Mayhem and Poor Decisions and as a standalone if you don’t like slow buildings.)
