HP: Roundabout by arakne (Draco/Hermione)

[field_reports]

Roundabout by arakne is a story with a Draco/Hermione pairing that's mysterious and surprisingly affecting, mostly because Draco is allowed to be mysterious, his allegiances unexplained. This story got to me: it's a fantasy, but it's a fantasy in which the characters don't get what they want. Reality runs through the sex scenes, in the sexual awakening of a girl who thinks too much, the careful and detailed Hermione characterization, Ron's and especially Harry's reactions, the ending I could see coming yet which still, as I said, got to me.

ETA: The author has removed her fanfic from the Internet.
