Summary: Narcissa Malfoy and Amarantha Greengrass just want what’s best for their children. But since it’s 1899, their children are 32 and 27 respectively, and sundry magical and Muggle crises are erupting across Europe, the chances of their plans progressing smoothly are close to zero.
Content/Warning(s): Victorian England AU (but otherwise, canon EWE compliant)
This fic is utterly delightful. 73K that just flew by as I read them. :) It starts when Draco comes back to England after living for the last few years in Geneva because her mum and Mrs Greengrass have come to the agreement is quite right time their children get married and they indeed make a great match.
Of course, Astoria and Draco themselves are not very pleased with this decision, and after a slightly off first meeting they finally agree they need to thwart their mothers and for this they have a plan. As Draco is not likely to ever be interested in another woman, they decide to find a better prospect for Astoria. (Charlie Weasley! Who is awesome, by the way.)
At the same time, when Harry and Hermione learn that these two are forced to married they come with their own plan to help them, and their plan is basically to keep them busy. So Hermione, Head of the Magical Law Enforcement Department offers Astoria a Muggle Legal Liaison position, since Astoria is such a spirited activist for Muggle Women's rights. As for Draco, Draco will work along with Harry, Head Auror, in crime scenes and gathering evidence for scientific analysis.
And as all this happens, we see Astoria fighting for Muggle Women's rights and welfare and Harry and Draco investigating an international smuggling ring.
It's really, really entertaining, the characterisations of - oh damn, everybody! - are brilliant, and seeing Harry and Draco ~discovering each other is wonderful. And Victorian Era AU, which just makes the whole thing extra charming. It's lovely.
