Please help! It was one of my faves and I’ve read it several times, but for the life of me I can’t find it, and now I can’t even remember what it was called or who it was by. I know I’ve reread it as recently as maybe a year or two ago, so if it was deleted or taken down it must have been relatively recently

last i recall it was a rather long wip, possibly upwards of 500k, started harry/hermione and transitioned to hermione/tom then harry/tom and finally to harry/hermione/tom. i would be shocked if it didn’t have a dead dove tag, it was pretty dark, but very well written

- it started out with hermione being orphaned and homeless after escaping a religious orphanage that abused her terribly
- she meets snape in Diagon alley for her muggleborn orientation and manages to make a good impression and fool him into thinking she just has neglectful parents
- she can tell immediately on the train that Harry is also a child that’s been abused and they bond and are sorted into Slytherin together
- together they make a lot of increasingly dark choices to keep each other safe
- she tricks Voldemort into swearing a vow to never harming Harry in exchange for collecting the philosopher’s stone for him, and he leaves the school and respects himself
- they scare the hell out of the adults by basically kidnapping Harry over the summer and running away to stay on the streets rather than with his relatives
- she ends up getting Tom’s diary when second year starts and they form a tenuous alliance, and for the rest of the fic her and Harry are in a rough triad with teenage tom
- Dumbledore’s increasing attempts at interfering with her friendship with Harry and her life outside the school force her to call on her debt with older Tom, who post resurrection has established himself as a rising politician and pretends to be her uncle and adopts her
- young diary time gets more and more possessive of both her and hermione and finds his older self’s other horcruxes and makes them wear them

- i could be conflating it with another fic in my memory but i *think* there’s a bit where they’ve sort of been grooming Neville towards getting darker and he straight up accidentally murders Ron after the Yule ball, and Harry helps him cover it up but dumbledore is convinced hermione did it and it completely coincidentally happens to be literally the one time she’s actually innocent

If you recall anything about this fic, if you’ve also read it or even just can confirm having seen it in passing, I’d appreciate any information you can remember! If you managed to snag a download I’ll love you forever if you share it. Thanks and wish me luck finding it!
