    Summary

    It is seven months before the events of Iron Lung.

    You are a C.O.I convict, serving two years' penance for a petty crime. After an outbreak in your already over-cramped prison, you are forced to relocate to a new holding cell on the ship. The only issue is that this cell is already inhabited.

    Your new cellmate is known only as the Convict. A Brother of Eden, and a butcher of men. He is everything you’ve been raised to hate, and you are everything he was raised to despise. However, in such close and heated proximity, you quickly realize that human nature has little concern for factions or sides.

    Through a series of events leading up to his final day, the man once known as Simon is forced to explore his traumatic past, his conflicted present, and the future he yearns to be worthy of, as you both navigate a difficult and untenable relationship.

    In a dying world, you must hold on to anything. Even if it hurts you.

Her seething hatred of the man leads her to become irrational as she traps herself in the Iron Lung with him.

The clock is ticking; only time will tell how well they’ll hold up trapped in the silent prison alone.

    Summary

    “Kill me, then. Give me a drink of the poison from your lips and I’ll fade from this earth willingly.”

     
    ***

    A tale that has been told hundreds of times, in a thousand different ways. In this one, two people find love unexpectedly amidst dangerous and cruel circumstances. It begins with Hermione witnessing something she wasn’t supposed to, Draco developing a confusing obsession with her as a consequence, and the brightest witch of her age being unable to decide if she quite likes that or not.

    A tale that is told in three parts. Each with their own story. Each with their own betrayals. Each with their own fucked up version of love.

    Anybody want a drink before the war?

    ***

    Or: A toxic and morally grey retelling of Hermione and Draco's experience from sixth year onwards loosely inspired by Wuthering Heights, in which one of their only redeeming qualities is their love.
