This was a beautiful and captivating story about the struggles Draco had to not only save his family but also protect Hermione. This Draco is still an arse (except to Hermione) but the author managed to portray the desperation Draco found himself in beautifully.
This story is rated mature. You will not find smut in this.
4.5⭐ because I think his curse took up too much space in the story and I wished for more plot around the remaining death eaters and also backgrounds on Theo and Lucius.
I LOVED the Draco&George friendship here! It was unexpected but their dynamic was just wonderful.
My Dramoine recommendations in no particular order
P.E.R.F.E.C.T! 100/100! Definitely (one of )the best Dramione fanfiction that I have read and will ever read. If you want to know why I love Dramione and what kind of Dramione I love, read this as it manifestation of all my fantasies. This fanfic is exactly what I wanted to see happen and in what light I see Draco.
The ending made me almost cry how happy and content I was. How I wish there was a sequel, because it is hard to say goodbye to this story...
I have always been extremely picky when it comes to Dramione fanfiction. So picky that out of the hundreds and hundreds (if not thousands) works I have come across, I can count the ones I really loved with only one hand. Revert is one of them.
If I had to describe it using only a few words, I would use the following: Intense and emotional. The writing can often be a little heavy, but it’s incredible and conveys all the emotions that Hermione (in particular) and Draco are feeling. The author pulled off flashbacks so well I was surprised I enjoyed reading them. Most of all, the secret relationship and forbidden romance was by far the best part of it.
Ok wow. I was absolutely not prepared to love this as much as I did! Spent the last 2 days binge reading and literally couldn't put it down! This was my first step into the Dramione fanfic universe and I can't imagine a better place to have started! Love love love!!
I love the trope of "they were secretly dating at Hogwarts" and then somehow it comes out that all the things he did huring the war were to protect her!!!!!

Este fic, fue muy doloroso. Siempre me ando buscando fics que duelan, pero este me dolió en el alma.
Tenemos a un Draco fugitivo, traidor a los Mortífagos pero tampoco es del lado de la Orden del Fenix, lo cual lo deja en un apartado en el centro donde todo mundo lo busca, ya sea por información o para matarlo. El único detalle es que él está poco a poco muriendo. Una maldición antigua lo corroe por dentro, y su tiempo es limitado. Y no hay cura sencilla para ello.
Por golpe de suerte, es acogido por la Orden del Fenix, y eso, a pesar de ser lo mejor que le pudo haber sucedido, también es lo peor que le pudo haber sucedido. Porque Hermione Granger también esta en el cuartel.
Vemos un poco de dos líneas del tiempo en paralelo. La primera es durante los años de Hogwarts cuando Draco y Hermione mantuvieron una relación en secreto, mientras que la segunda es esta actualidad que les platico. Poco a poco vemos esto juntarse y entendemos a estos dos personajes, sus problemas, sus razones de ser, etc. Pero encima de todo, es buscar una cura para Draco. Descubrir el porque de esta maldición que lo está matando fue algo que no esperaba leer, y ahí fue cuando mi corazón se partió en dos.
No se les olvide checar los tags de este fanfic porque sí esta un poco pesado de ese lado. Es un fanfic que no recomiendo a la ligera, pero sí uno que considero de los buenos del ship.
This fic was extremely painful. I’m always looking for fics that hurt, but this one hurt deep inside.
We have a Draco on the run, Death Eater traitor, but also not quite on the Order’s side, which leaves him smack in the middle where one side is looking to kill him, and the other side is looking for information from him. The only small detail is that he’s slowly dying. A curse is killing him from the inside, an ancient one with no easy cure.
By some sort of fate, he is found by the Order, and that, despite being the best thing to ever happen to him, is also the worst thing to happen to him. Because Hermione Granger is also in the building.
We see two timelines unfold in the story. The first one centers in their Hogwarts school years when Hermione and Draco maintained a secret relationship, while the second one is the present timeline I spoke of before. We see slowly how they merge and as readers, we understand them both, their problems, ways of being, etc. But above it all, the search for a cure for Draco is a race against time, because this curse is killing him, and when I found out the why on this curse, my heart broke.
Don’t forget to check this fic’s tags because it’s a bit on the heavy side. It’s a fanfic I don’t recommend lightly but no doubt, it’s one of the good ones for this ship.
