I want you all to know that this is a slow, slow fic. It's going to take a very long time to finish it, because it's my senior year in high school and I'm doing a shitload of AP courses and preparing for a whole load of crap. College. Groan. University. Groan. Fanfiction is my only source of freedom, isn't it?
I was inspired by a post made by Nerysdax's (Nerys) tumblr. I'm going to repost it here, because links don't work properly on here and it's a pain to type spaces between links and go through all that hassle to. . . you know.
Here we go:
Anon Ask To winterblume-3:
"what do you think would happen if after tom/voldemort died he became hermione's guardian angel (time does not really exist for an guardian angel)?"
winterblume-3 reply:
"What a great idea XD Lord Voldemort becoming Hermione's personal guardian angel after he dies. I don't think he'd like that very much. I think Hermione would be shocked when she finds out, but then she'll have her fun with Tom's situation. Hermione would deliberately get herself in danger just so Tom has to save her. And he'll hate every second of it. "Saving a Mudblood?! Disgusting." But Tom has no choice, after all he's her guardian angel. I can almost see Voldemort going straight to hell after he dies. There he meets the devil who comes up with Tom's punishment:"

"'Tom Riddle you were bad. Really bad, in fact, and you're going to get punished. Let's see. What's your hell gonna be like? Hm, eternal torture? Nope, too boring. I need something extra special for you. How about being locked away until the end of time with no other company than the haunting memories of the murders you commited? Better …but not quite it yet. Hm, hm. Difficult. Difficult. Gotta be something reeeally good. Oh, wait. Now I got it. You know what I'm gonna do with you? This is perfect. You tried killing all Muggleborns, didn't you? In some kind of personal vendetta or whatever the fuck that was. You know what your personal little hell is gonna be? Instead of killing Muggleborns, you'll be condemned to protect them. Nice nice, with a little pinch of irony, exactly how I like it. But don't worry, that's not all. No. You're not going to be the protector of just any Muggleborn. No, that'd be too easy. Not nearly enough humiliation for you. No, you're going to be the guardian angel of the very Muggleborn that took a huge part in bringing you down: Hermione Granger. Enjoy.'"
Nerys reblogged and added:
"You've got to write this now, Winterblume. This is too priceless a plot to let it pass you by. I can just imagine how pleased Hermione would be when finding out who her guardian angel is. Just to irritate him, she can start doing all these incredibly dangerous things. Department of Mysteries has this ancient object which killed several researchers trying to find out what it does? Hermione to the rescue! Nothing beats tormenting Tommy dearest. )"
Now that you got what's going on, I'm going to start writing. Now.
