If there were one thing that most of the Wizarding community could agree upon—though seldom spoken of—it was that, on a Monday evening, as a cloud of early-October mist settled upon his family manor, Augustus Nott murdered his wife while his son cowered in the corner.
In the aftermath of the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, Draco Malfoy and Theodore Nott are quickly forced into Voldemort’s ranks; one to fix the sin of his father, the other to protect his brother.
As the war progresses, and Theodore’s mind begins to fracture trying to remember a memory that does not exist, the two quickly realise that, alongside their desperate need to save each other, there is someone else they're equally determined to protect: Hermione.
Incertitude is a dual-perspective, canon-divergent fic that explores the lengths we go to for family, beginning with sixth year then following the events of the Second Wizarding War.
