Fics like Snake in the Lion's Den

In the not-so-distant future, Death Eaters have retaken power in England and want to resurrect Lord Voldemort. Fifty-year-old Hermione Granger decides to take matters into her own hands and go back in time to adopt and raise Tom Riddle. She did her research. She has an evidence-backed plan. She did not mean to bring Harry Potter along. Forced to pretend to be married, they now find themselves raising a six-year-old future Dark Lord in the shadow of Gellert Grindelwald’s growing influence, and discovering that changing history is far messier than anticipated. Expect a Spy Family-esque, crack-adjacent fic with fewer pink bubble-gum telepaths and more haunted Victorian orphan magical prodigies; Hermione leading an aggressively early crusade for Muggle education reform; and a fifty-year-old Dumbledore pining helplessly for a fifty-year-old time-travelling Master of Death Harry Evans. Featuring Harry/Hermione “widower” romance, one-sided Dumbledore/Harry pining, and baby Tom Riddle being, generally speaking, a very good little menace.
