Tom Marvolo Riddle

Hi there, OF COURSE I have found some cool fics and will gladly share them with you!

(yes, I’m finally back from my self-imposed exile from tumblr because of sTuDiEs,

and I am terribly sorry it took me so long to answer, but hopefully this collection of fics I have stumbled upon is well worth the wait).

Without further ado, here we go:

The Darkness Calls Her

The Greatest Victory

By: MindifISlytherIn07

The one where Hermione travels back in time... far far back... *WARNING FOR DARK TOPICS* Rated M for future mature contents. "The greatest victory over death will be life - Forever yours - L.M. L.M. Who was this L.M.? Lucius Malfoy? The name fit, but it made little sense. Hermione frowned at the words. What did this mean?"

Rated: M

Some books have the power to change your life. Tom Riddle's diary is undoubtedly one of them

Rated: M

The Dark Lady

By: maisey2k10

Hermione's life is changed forever when she is saved during the Battle of Hogwarts by her father. A man she didn't recognise. A man of great power. A man legends were written about.  A man that gives her a new mission and sets her on a path to save the Wizarding World, through effectively, babysitting Tom Riddle. Powerful!Greyish! Time-Travel fic.

Indescribable Events

By: acitruscandle

~This one also looks promising, though it has only two chapters as of now~

Tom was definitely not a normal 10 year old boy. He was raised his whole life in Wools Orphanage and never experienced any real love. But then the Granger family come along and scoop him up from that hell hole. All of a sudden he has parents and a sister. But Hermione isn't REALLY his sister. Not really at all.

Rated: M

Note, I‘ve included FanFiction fics only because IMO they are often the ones that fly under a tomione reader‘s radar. I guess we all keep ourselves up to date with AO3 fics to a certain extent, whereas sometimes it slips our mind to check FanFiction... BUT I may be wrong, so here are some of my new AO3 favs jic: Murder, Milkshakes, and Drive-Ins, You Should Know, The Girl in the Tower, Dealing in Temptation, The cursed House of Black.

I am sure that there’re still some gems out there that I might have overlooked, but that’s all I’ve got right now.

Kind regards,

Hermione: Tom, you literally pushed him off the Astronomy Tower.

Abraxas: Knights, on behalf of our almighty lord, I’m pleased to announce you that our dear Lady Hermione is finally going to join our meeting sessions.

Lestrange: Drop the act you pompous ass. Tom’s not here yet.

Abraxas: Ugh, whatever. Just hear me out. Be decent, ok? Like these normal human beings that don’t go around sneering at everything that breathes. Dolohov, it wouldn’t kill you to smile once in a while. Rosier, no inappropriate jokes. Be civil. Lestrange, try to be like this a little less crazy version of yourself. You can do this lad. And Nott, stay cool as always dude.

Nott: K.

Abraxas: Well, that about covers it.

Rosier: Hey, wait! What about a welcome party?

Abraxas: Tom said he didn’t want her feel out of place or something. So, nothing grand or fancy. I guess we are to-

Lestrange: Guys, guys, they’re coming!

Rosier: Well, shit.

“The Knights’ meeting”

To quote Albus Dumbledore, “They were a motley collection”.

Hermione: I heard your bunch of idiots adopted a new label. So, “Death Eaters”?

Tom: Yeah.

Hermione: How plain.

Tom: I know. Wait, what?

Hermione: I mean, who comes up with these stupid monikers? A five year old?

Abraxas: Actually, it was T-

Tom: Shut up, Malfoy! Hermione, come again?

Hermione: Well, come to think of it, the title “Knights of Walpurgis” is way more flattering than that. I mean, who wants to be called a glutton. And here I thought nothing could be worse than your Voldi-Morti sobriquet (you still use it??) - it pales in comparison with this one. Even minions would sound more sophisticated. Oh, wait! Here’s a good one: mortinions.

Tom: ...

Hermione: No? Then, maybe... lackeys? Definitely, lackeys, especially since you’ve always preferred this feudalistic line of thought. Quite apropos with the whole Lordy-thing I suppose.

Tom:

Tom [handles her a set of keys]: These are yours.

Hermione: Whatever for?

Tom: Our place. Where else would my wife live but with me?

Hermione: Could you be even more romantic?

Tom: Honestly, you didn’t expect that I’d get down on one knee and profess my undying ‘love’ for you, did you? I have my limits, you know. So, do you accept?

Summary: It wasn't a choice. Not really. But, she chose him, anyway.

(Not a time travel au!)

Rated: M

Status: Complete

~Snippet~

He frowned forcefully. It was so genuine and so fake and so forceful against her. The earlier feeling continued to spread, continued to slip over her comfortably.

“The ends justify the means.”

“But what is the goal, Tom? What do you want?”

“You.”

Tom: I swear my girlfriend is the weirdest person ever. Positively batty.

Abraxas: I dunno, Hermione seems perfectly sane to me.

Tom: SANE? Firstly, she gets me this disgusting muggle IPHONE for my birthday - don’t look at me like that, I know the thing is ridiculous - then, she decides it’s her great mission to enlighten me as to what this social media is, and this morning she sends me THIS!

Abraxas: And? Cats memes are cute...

Tom: CUTE??? Am I a JOKE to her??? Am I a LAUGHING MATERIAL??? Look, just look at this. She calls it “slang”. How should I respond to “ILY”? What does it even mean? I loathe yellow? I like yogurt? I lied you? That doesn’t make any sense.

Abraxas: Just send her some slang of your own! Maybe, something popular?

Tom: ABRAXAS. MALFOY. YOU. IDIOT! I got banished to sleeping on the couch!

Abraxas: Hey, calm down! What did you write her???

That You are From His Bright&Sunny Future

Stop panicking, Hermione, calm down.

Inhale, exhale.

Just rehearse your speech in your head. Don’t be too impulsive. Rationalize.

1) Begin with something like, “Tom, I am from the future where you are a nose-less snake-like creature with very tiny piece of your soul and sanity left.

“Oh, and you are trying to kill my best friend. And me. Probably, destroy the half of the planet, too. Or, at least trying to. Did I mention people there call you He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named? Yeah, that’s silly, alright”.

2) Be subtle, no jokes or anything.

“You know what? It turns out you’re about 60 years my senior! Don’t worry it isn’t showing. Though you might want to try out this oatmeal face mask. Reduces the appearance of wrinkles”.

3) Or you can also start the conversation with something ordinary, then delicately move to another subject. For example, “How’s your cronies? Still trying their best to appear even stupider than they are? Wonderful. Don’t be too hard on them. Cruciatus isn’t that pleasant at all. Oh, yeah, I had this first-hand experience when I was like 17...

....Bellatrix Lestrange, your most trusted follower.

Hey, where are you going? You are yet too hear the funniest thing!”.

4) Some pillow talk would do too...

“So how many Horcruxes have you already made?”

5) Or just get drunk and spill the whole thing out.

“Let’s play this game. You tell me your secret, I tell you mine. You start. What? You created your first horcrux at 16? Pfff, my best friend destroyed it at 12. Yeah, this diary of yours. That one, yeah. Oops...”

P.s. So stick to these shitty instructions and find out what will happen to baby death eaters (especially a certain Mr Lestrange) when Tom is having a bad mood. Don’t forget to bring some ice cream.

1. What the fuck?

Hermione and Riddle? Time travel? Pfh...

That’s crazy, obscene, unrealistic.

I don’t want to read it. I won’t read it.

What if...

2. I Read It!

That’s the craziest shit I’ve ever read and

I fucking love it!

3. I WANT MORE

4. I’m Tomione addict and I don’t need saving

5. WANNA WRITE THAT SHIT!!!

100000 WIPS, CRAZY IDEAS AND MISSING DEADLINES - I’M COMING!

Well, that, of course, depends whether I manage to log out of Tumblr and finally write whatever my wild imagination has come up with.

Btw, would Siri be called Tommy, Voldy or Morty then? 🤔 Otherwise the whole “hey, you-who-must-not-be-named, call Harry on speaker” would be just weird. Though this idea of Tom as Hermione’s virtual assistant is even more weirder...🙈

Tom: Hermione, my new name is Voldemort.

Hermione [with fake astonishment]: Come again? Voldy-what?

Tom: I am Lord Voldemort. It’s an anagram.

Hermione: Wait, what anagram?

As in, Immoral Toddler?

Tom:

Hermione: Ok, Tom - sorry, I mean,

Lordy-Voldy - I get it.

Tom [frustrated]: Damn! Just call me Tom.

Hermione:
