Glass Silence

Glass Silence is a novel-length femslash fanfiction in the Harry Potter fandom. The work is particularly notable for featuring Hermione Granger in relationships with each of the Black family sisters, Andromeda Tonks, Narcissa Malfoy, and Bellatrix Black in succession. The work does not feature polyamory or an incestuous relationship between the sisters. Bellatrix/Hermione is the endgame relationship. 
The work has an unusual premise, with the author acknowledging that it started as a joke. (Accessed June 2, 2020) An orphaned Hermione Granger is sent to a muggle orphanage, and then quickly moved to an adoptive wizarding home. Her adoptive parents are too poor to send her to Hogwarts, leaving her to pick up what magical education she can in her sparse free time. As such, Hermione never forms a friendship with Ron Weasley or Harry Potter and is on the sidelines of most major events in the Wizarding World. However, an overwhelmed Andromeda offers her a job in the Black Manor, which has the former Death Eater Bellatrix Black under house arrest on the top floor. 
The fanfiction reached a fairly large audience with over 1000 reviews on fanfiction.net and over 1200 kudos on Archive of Our Own. The author also posted two shorter companion works, When Promised With Ice, a 6k+ word fic focused on the Hermione/Narcissa relationship; and Spinning Dust in an Untidy Dark, an 11k+ word fic intended to tie up loose ends.
