My blog for all my obsessions. Mostly Tomione. MY ART.

Tomione/Voldmione Fic Rec Master Post

Because I get asked for Tomione/Voldmione fic recommendations on a regular basis, I’ve finally decided to make a Master Post. This won’t include every single Tom/Voldmione fic ever written, just the good ones.

(I had help from Nerys, Shan84, and Lady Miya with this, so thank you guys)

Please note: I had every intention of keeping this categorized by Tom, Voldemort, Dark, Not-So-Dark, etc., but with the sheer amount of fics out there, I’d go mental trying to read them all just to decide what went where. Forgive me for being lackadaisical. It’s a character flaw~

Hey! To answer your question; not much of anything, well outside of work related art. Work is very busy atm, so I'm mostly putting in extra hours when I can. Unfortunately, this means I'm mostly too burnt out on art to want to sit down and draw more, but I sometimes answer a series of asks when I need a change of mental pace.

On top of work other real life stuff has just been keeping me super busy. It's spring, so also working on repotting all my plants and trying to find time to tend my garden and yard. My kids just started their spring soccer season; and my husband and I are co-coaching one of the teams, so we've been really busy with that. As if that wasn't enough, to top it all off, we had the crazy idea to join our friends' DnD campaign and also hold MtG nights semi-regularly with some co-workers.

Needless to say I've been pretty swamped over here. I'd love to find time to squeeze in more Tomione art, but I'm having trouble just finding much time to read rn, to be honest. Hoping things slow down come summer but not sure if that will happen because then my kids will be home all day. 😅

okay for the ship asks I'm giving you tomione in return ❤️

TOMIONE - SHIP IT

What made you ship it?

One fic. Psychological Warfare by yuwoo. I was not even close to sold on the ship when I first heard about it. No canon interactions, made less sense than Tomarry... But then. Then. I read Psychological Warfare and fell into a bit of a rabbit hole. One of the main appeals of Tomione for me is the corruption arc doubled with Hermione's canon greyness. Hermione is so set on her morals, so decisive in what she believes in, and so ready to act almost immorally to uphold those values that she is corruptible. Tom and her are on equal footing intellectually and they're two sides of the same coin, like Tomarry but in a different way. I initially thought Tomione was a more extreme ETL than Dramione, but the two dynamics actually have very little in common. - For one, Tom as a character is very nuanced, and I firmly believe that he only aligned himself with Pureblood ideals in order to form alliances with those who held power in wizarding society, whose children also happened to be his classmates at Hogwarts. To me, he would just as well have purported to believe the opposite if it had been in his interest. He has an agency over his corruption that Draco doesn't have because he's pushed into the corruption by darker forces. - Additionally, where Draco is Hermione's peer, Tom is a force from above: far more powerful, far darker, far less locked into social conventions--and, in spite of all that, this is a dynamic where he treats Hermione as an equal. Obviously, there are no canon examples of this, but there are hints. Tom believes in magic more than anything, and Hermione's magical prowess is proven time and time again. They both treat magic as a pure force and have endless interest in learning more about it. - Yes, there is an ETL vibe to it, but I actually find the most successful Tomiones to be non-ETL! It's one of the only ships where childhood friends to lovers makes sense to me. I do enjoy a Tom who torments Hermione, but what I enjoy about Tomione is that she will often defend herself and fight him. Finally, Tomione has a lot of potential for crack or humorous fics, and I find most of the Tomione crack/comedy fics to be just as enjoyable as the more serious ones, if not more at times.

What are your favorite things about the ship?

Toxic but FUN, big nerds <3. also big virgins <3, corruption arc, grey-to-dark Hermione, banter, time-travel trope, but also AUs, crack fics!!!!!

Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

I'm sure there are unpopular opinions for this ship, but I don't think of my mine qualify? So I'll leave this empty for the time being.

Mean Girls.

The 90s, timeline mashup, college AU I’m craving.

I like to think of Bellatrix and Voldemort’s relationship as purely platonic- intimate, affectionate but not sexual.

Bella’s physicality and touchy-feely nature and Tom’s ignorance of intimacy and personal boundaries can lead to misunderstandings for those not in the know, but the Knights know what’s really going on. Holding hands here, a kiss there… no wonder our love interest gets jealous.

Galadriel: You deceived me.

Halbrand: I told you that I had done evil, and you did not care. Because you knew that our past meant nothing, weighed against our future.

Big Rings of Power spoilers for last ep. I am not a huge fan of this setup personally as a LotR fan, but at the same time people seem to use the label "Dark Lord" and my interest and ship brain is piqued. Love this gif set though, saves me from having to play back that moment.

Some quick sketches from the other night, not super refined or anything, but I've been burning through Spinning Silver by @naominovik . I had to just had to do a sketch of these three ladies; whom I love so much.

One day will hopefully get to some Uprooted sketches, but I devoured that book. I just was so in love with the writing and characters, I went straight onto her other book without pausing to doodle.
