pls talk more about narcissa
welll since you asked….
౨ৎ ˖ ࣪⊹🦢⊹₊ ⋆୨ৎ
she’s her mother’s dress-up doll, she’s clytemnestra, she stabbed the dark lord in the back, she’s precise, she made an unbreakable vow to protect draco, she’s a strategist, she just wants to be left alone, she’s the ugly little duckling, she’s a lake that looks placid on the surface, but is raging underneath. if there’s one word for her, it’s bitter. she did everything she was supposed to and got fucked anyway.
narcissa in canon is defined by her role as a mother in a similar way to lily, but she is a mother who is present and therefore is able to disappoint; who sends her son sweets in the mail, but fails to protect him from joining a cult at sixteen….she is so interesting precisely because of those contradictions. she is the devoted wife & mother, ensnared by the same black family allegiances & obligations as the others, but she fights to create her own paradise within that aristocratic hellscape while still obeying its rules. she wants her cake and to eat it too. to belong to a crumbling, stifling magical dynasty and still raise a son turns out okay. her house is her domain (“this is my house, bella, you don’t give orders in my…”), it’s the small bit of power she’s carved out for herself. and you’ll have to pry it out of her cold dead hands.
my narcissa has really intense control issues. i think she has some paranoias & anxieties around eating. she likes to look impeccable so no one can sense the disaster going on inside. she enjoys the riches and prestige of being a black or a malfoy but she’d sell every piece of jewelry in her jewelry box to read a book alone by the sea…to me, she is a lesbian and she knows it, it just isn’t something she’d ever be willing to acknowledge. of everyone, she is in the most need of a rage room. imagine her in vintage dior and a black headband brutally beating the shit out of lucius’ car with a baseball bat (he cheated on her, and she wouldn’t care but he got caught and now it’s tabloid news.) after a childhood of disassociating to cope with her dysfunctional home, she has a hard time identifying her own emotions. she’s a marionette being piloted by a blonde chess prodigy in black patent leather mary janes. its like ratatouille. most of the time when she’s shaking hands and smiling serenely she’s thinking about a ballet performance or fencing or opera or wizarding history (i think she really likes history). in writing her it’s such a joy to explore who she becomes if she gets to do whatever she wants. what does she want anyway? outside of being a mother? do we know?
ALSO, something so fairytale perfect about her and her sisters…a pretty pair of three. she is the exact in-between of the two–if bella is fight and andy is flight, she’s freeze. she’s the little blonde outlier who was paraded around at parties until her face hurt from kissing cheeks. her sisters are the only ones who see through to the core of her. she needs both of them- bella as her shield and andy as her sword. when andy leaves it’s like she gets frozen in time.
my favorite pairing for her is alice, but i can accept lucissa if they’re in the background of a drarry fic. her and alice would live in a sea-side cottage in france and run a winery or something. she’s the ice queen and alice is the knight in shining armor. finally someone wants her to have every good thing she’s ever denied herself. she’s supposed to be a good little lady, and i think alice would make her want to go wild and roll around in the mud. yum.
#uh so obviously i think about her a lot#that’s baby. she and reg take up so much brain space.#they’d be so annoying drinking their gin and tonics and bitching about everyone at the function#i just think they should be spoiled rotten <3#cissa tag#fern.txt

Sometimes I wish I was a filmmaker, so I could have the Black sisters, on a road trip, listening to Beautiful, Dirty, Rich by Lady Gaga, without it just being italicised lyrics on a page...
#Andy is driving#Because that requires common sense and minimal road rage#She's the best of a bad bunch in that department#Cissa's got an emerald green silk headscalf on#And she's chilling in the passenger seat picking the music#Ted and Alice are comparing dad jokes in the back seat#And Bella and Rita are making out in the very back#Did i mention they're in a convertible?#And they're at a traffic light#Sirius and Regulus are in the next car wishing they were them#I think I'm addicted to ridiculously long tags#andromeda black#andromeda tonks#narcissa black#narcissa malfoy#narcissa x alice#bellatrix black#bellatrix lestrange#ted tonks#alice fortescue#rita skeeter#noble house of black

writing patterns: first sentences
thank you @lettersbyelise for the tag!
Rules: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there’s a pattern!
I guess my pattern is…I have no pattern. Lol
I try to start a fic so it's captures the readers attention, but I doubt that happens as I'm still an "unknown" in most parts. I write what I enjoy and if others read…fabulous. If not, oh well.
So here we go:

( @loneliiest — ) "I hope you aren't feeling the cold too intensely, Miss Ross." Narcissa tells the girl. Pandora Ross, yes, that was her. She was a darling little thing. Narcissa couldn't say they were close, particularly, but circles were small these days, and Narcissa knew one of her own when she saw them. "The snow makes for a beautiful scene, but it really is hard to ward against the chill of it."

Hello friends! I, along with my co-mod, timothysboxers, are thrilled to announce that 25 Days of Draco and Harry will run again in 2024. We want to thank navi1088 for creating our banner art. His work can be found at AO3 and tumblr under the same name. For those who may not be familiar with this challenge, we have included the rules at the end of this post, and we strongly encourage you to read these. And for the loyal fans of 25 Days of Harry and Draco: In 2024, we will be doing both Early-bird and Traditional prompts as usual. Again, we're running on LJ, DW and tumblr – the rules will be the same as last year. Because it seemed to work out quite well last year, the Early-bird Prompts will once again be available in October, and we will be including the Image Descriptions along with the prompts. Early bird prompts will be available no later than 13 October 2024, allowing creators over 7 weeks and some change to work on their posts. The signup period will open on 6 October 2024. Also, we will have the Discord server specifically for 25 Days of Draco and Harry participants. Like last year, this will be a place where early bird participants can discuss (in a channel just for them) the prompts and how they might use them. Traditional participants may join the Server at any time, and will also have dedicated channels for their prompts and discussions. The 2024 rules at a glance— Common Guidelines and Notes If you are creating individual works, please select "This Work is Part of a Series" to gather your works together. This will make them much easier to find in future!
If you are creating a multi-chaptered work, please use the "This Work has Multiple Chapters" option to ensure your chapters stay together.
An AO3 collection is available, and you are encouraged to post your works to it. Search for "25 Days of Draco and Harry 2024".
If you're not posting to the AO3 collection (but we really hope you are!) be sure to tag @slythindor100 on tumblr so we do not miss your posts!
The Early Bird and Traditional Prompt sets are different. We aim to have five or less prompts that appear in both sets.
More detailed rules and guidelines are further down underneath the cut.
25 Days of Draco and Harry 2024 - Traditional No changes from prior years. An image prompt is posted starting at midnight US-EST on 1 December, and you create a work based on that prompt and post before the next day's prompt goes up. Each of your posts can be part of a larger work or they can stand alone. 25 Days of Draco and Harry 2024 - Early Bird You receive access to all 25 photo prompts at once when Early Bird access opens. This is a similar timeframe as previous years. The idea is to give participants time to prepare and create something before the insanity of December starts. You will post one work per day for each prompt. This can be a stand-alone story or each day can be a part of a bigger story.
We also encourage individuals or a group to create a podfic of a past 25 Days story, subject to the consent of the author(s). ♥ The advantages are this: 1. you can use the picture prompts in any order you chose 2. you can start creating early and have many of your posts ready to go before December 1st. 3. you get the prompts all at once so you can pre-plan your story and how you will use each prompt.
If you have any questions, please email the 25 days mod account at [email protected] or DM one of the mods if you're on the Drarry Discord server, or the 25 Days Challenge server.
@sassy-cissa and @timothysboxers
Detailed Rules The basic rules of 25 Days of Draco and Harry – Traditional Edition: The challenge is to write a drabble, ficlet, story, create an artwork, a comic, etc. for the image posted each day from 1 December to 25 December. Written works for each prompt should be a minimum of 100 words, but there is no maximum. They can be twenty-five one-shots or each one can be a part of a bigger story. Pictures will be posted at midnight EST and you have until the next midnight to complete your work. You may combine this with other communities or tumblr prompts. Your work does not have to be a story of the picture – you can use any part of the picture, or take inspiration from what that picture says to you. Traditional Prompts must be used in their posted order. If you fall behind, you can post more than once a day to get caught up. You're also welcome to post as life allows, meaning you don't have to worry about being on time. You can also combine a few days or prompts into one work, but the true challenge is to post every day for 25 days within the 24-hour time frame. You do not need to sign-up for the Traditional edition, the prompts will be made available beginning 1 December at midnight EST. Early-bird Edition: After signups close you will be given access to the 25 picture prompts no later than Sunday, 13 October.
You may use these prompts in any order you choose – but each prompt may only be used once.
The challenge remains to post a daily work from 1 to 25 December using one of the provided prompts. Each should be posted between 12 midnight (EST) and 11:59 PM (EST) the next night.
For written works, the minimum word count is 100 words per prompt.

Narcissa of the Noble and most Ancient House of Black | Slytherin | 7th year | Mother of Draco Malfoy | Single | Bisexual |
Hello, I'm Narcissa, my family calls me Cissa, but that's just for them. I'm in my last year at Hogwarts. I have a son, Draco Lucius Malfoy. I was obliged to have him, nevertheless I love him immensely.
Send me an ask, I'd love to talk, despite some belief I will talk to anyone from any house, muggle, muggleborn, halfblood...I don't mind. Just keep it on the app so my parents won't find out.
TW: I headcannon this character to have an ED, although that is not the focus of her plot line, every post regarding this will be tagged with “#tw cissy’s things” and/or “#tw: ed”. Block these tags (or just this blog as a whole) if the topic of disordered eating is triggering for you.
@bl4ckregulus - Regulus Black, my dearest younger cousin, you really deserve the world.
@ratten-junge - Peter Pettigrew, a Gryffindor the year below me, I don’t really know him, although he is friends with Sirius…
@forever-sirius - Sirius Black, my cousin, Gryffindor cousin.
@rosier-not-rosie - Evan Rosier, younger cousin on my mothers side.
@f1rstw0men-ev3r - Pandora Rosier, Evan’s Twin, so another little cousin.
@werewolf-of-wales - Remus Lupin, friends with Sirius, perhaps the most sane from their little group..?
@marybabee - Mary Macdonald, I don’t really know here but I have seen her around.
@1-h4te-my-d4d - Bartimus Crouch Junior, friends with Reg, I’ve seen him at family parties and stuff.
@drunk-blondie - Marlene McKinnon, 6th year Gryffindor.
@lily-in-the-water - Lily Evans, another 6th year Gryffindor, I don’t know her but she seems pleasant.
@staginthestars - James Potter, loud friend of Sirius.
@jackfrostlookalike - Lucius Malfoy, 7th year Slytherin, Draco’s biological father.
@ruler-of-men - Andromeda Black, my older sister.
@me-liberer - Bellatrix Black, my eldest sister.
@ted-the-teddy - Ted Tonks, Andy’s Hufflepuff boyfriend.
@no1-beater-cas - Dorcas Meadows, Regulus’ friend (?)
@not-ritaskeeter - Rita Skeeter, graduate, I don’t really know.
@plz-spell-my-name-right - Xenophilius Lovegood, Ravenclaw I don’t really know.
@sevspotions - Severus Snape.
@h0pesandr3ams - Hope Lupin, Remus’ mother.
@elliot-blaine - Elliot Blaine, I’ve actually never met him…I don’t even know his house.
@rudy-the-strange - Rodolphus Lestange, somehow involved with my eldest sister.
@emmelineyourgirl - Emmeline Vance, another Ravenclaw.

lucius malfoy masterlist remus lupin masterlist
"And then, the lupin boy had the audacity to talk me down! 'you're not the only prefect around here, malfoy,' he said. the sheer disrespect!" lucius exclaimed.
the corners of your mouth twitched upwards. "how very dare he!" you tried to sound as genuine as possible, but to be honest, you found the whole ordeal hilarious.
"i know! and-" he paused for a second and sighed. "you find this funny, don't you."
your eyes glistened with mirth. "no," you continued to almost mock your best friend, continuing to braid his unnaturally platinum- blond hair. " i think it's... quite... uhm...." you try to hold your laughter in in vain, eventually letting go of his precious locks to cover your face as you snorted into your hands. "oh my god, malfoy, you are so pathetic."
"i am not pathetic!" he exclaimed in protest. "just because he's friends with them, if he wasn't he would get them in so much trouble, detentions every day-"
"hey, leave remus alone, he's done nothing to you!"
"please, just because you have a crush on him!"
lucius was muttering angrily after you had heard him practically yell the common room password and marched into the dungeons, and when you had asked him what was wrong you had expected for him to say anything except for begin to rant about one of your classmates-nearly-mates, mates. who you also happened to have a tiny crush on. but that was besides the point.
you scoffed in retaliation. "just because he got a higher mark than you in the last arithmancy test."
"you didn't deny your little crush." he ignored the snide comment directed towards himself and mocked you instead.
"i don't like him," i murmured, concentrating at the task at hand to ignore the fact you were blushing slightly. "and shut up, you're ruining your hair."
"ow!" he muttered mock- angrily as you pulled a lock of his hair. "watch how i embarrass you in front of him tomorrow."
"you watch i don't cut your hair off in your sleep, malfoy."
"i know you wouldn't, love."
he was teasing you for the nickname remus had oh-so-casually called you when asking for an extra quill the day before, and you had blushed the hardest you'd ever had before even processing what he had asked for.
cringing internally, you were quick to snap at lucius, but it was all in good intentions- that was how you two worked.
"shut up!"
"i didn't hear you complaining when he called you that," he drawled. you slapped his hands away from where they were prodding and poking at his hair, trying to figure out what style you were doing.
"leave off, you absolute menace," you hiss. "that's different."
lucius was about to come up with another witty retort when barty threw a book at the two of you from where he was trying to sleep on the sofa, his arm sprawled across his face. "shut up, both of you. i'm trying to sleep, you're worse than regulus and bellatrix."
"shut up, barty," the two of you parroted in unison.
"just because evan left you for a 'puff girl," you snorted.
this time it was an inkwell which you dodged, well- practised at the sport. "try again, my friend."
"or DON'T!" lucius practically shrieked as he failed to avoid a cushion which you smirked at. "shut up, you."
"i didn't say anything."
"yeah, well.. shut up."
"yessir."
"... don't let cissa hear you saying that."
you and barty gasped.
"malfoy!"
"ooh, kinky," barty smirked.
you flipped him off in response. "shut up."
lucius smirked. "i mean, is he wrong?"
"ooh, scandalously kinky!"
"SHUT UP, CROUCH!"
barty features bc he's my bff
anyways hope you like this<3

For the Love of WIPs (Drarry style)
There's a lot of things I miss about LJ, but right up there was the weekly posting of the H/D Prophet run by @sassy-cissa and groovelover at the conclusion. It began posting in 2005 and It stopped posting in 2021. I know it was a ton of work for the mods to run it, but it truly kept Drarry fandom informed of all the one-shot fics, art released that week, and chapter updates for current Drarry WIPs, recs, etc... Also listed were the fests and what state they were in. Take a look at the links I posted above and see all the goodness. It was very centralized. *sigh happy times*
What made me think of this was I love reading Drarry WIPs but keep finding recent chapter fics that I missed while being posted and only found them completed and others that I'm currently reading but found by chance.
So, I thought I'd share the WIPs I'm keeping track of and those that have been completed recently that I've read.
Notes: Most WIPs (chapter fics) are long fics (over 50K and up to 1M). There are readers that see some lengths of completed fics and wince. That is one reason why chapters are often released weekly or whenever, so you have digestible amounts (5-15K). Sometimes as an author I feel in a Catch 22, readers don't have time to read long fics, but then won't read a WIP until completed. LOL
Below the cut are WIPs that I've read and that have been recently completed. I'll post ongoing WIPs that I'm reading tomorrow! I'm not listing the Warning and Tags for these fics as I'll leave that up for you to decide on what to read or not. But, there are a few here that do have strong warnings in the tags and/or Author Notes. One final note: I'm listing WIPs (chapter fics) that were posted over a time period, not completed chapter fics that were listed on one date as a whole. OMG this is a long post!
Recently completed Drarry WIPs
Passing Stranger (53K) by @lettersbyelise This just completed yesterday! I have 2 chapters left to read. :) Summary: Five years after the war, Harry, listless and depressed, stumbles upon Draco Malfoy playing the violin in an underground bar in Muggle London. The catch? Draco lost his memories five years ago. Ignoring his friends’ advice, Harry befriends an unwitting Draco, overlooking the fact that their mutual attraction might not survive if Draco’s memories return. Comment: Haven't quite finished but I love, love, the Draco in this fic. You could feel that this is Draco stripped of all the heavy responsibilities he grew up with including having a bigoted father. The tension is palpable with Harry being attracted to this Draco but feeling that Draco needs to be Draco Malfoy to move forward. *ugh*. 2. The Boy from the Piano Shop (90.5K) by @soliblomst completed 2/25/24. Summary: After going blind in a reckless attempt to avenge Ginny's death, Harry battles with severe depression. One day, he stumbles upon a quaint piano restoration shop in the heart of London and meets the owner, a kindly old man, and his introverted young apprentice, whose voice sounds strangely familiar. As Harry and Draco slowly reconnect through private piano lessons, the small workshop becomes Harry's refuge, offering him a glimmer of hope in a world without eyes. Set five years after the Battle of Hogwarts. Comment: I binged this fic bad!!! There is so much to love in this fic but one of the standouts is the OC Richard. You will love him, too. The gradual build up of Drarry is so well done. The dealing with Harry's depression is so raw and real. No cutting of corners. The ending was one of the best I've read in celebrating what is to come for Harry and Draco. And Draco, in the final scene will make you cry *happy tears*. 3. The Star Splitter (219K) by @oflights completed 3/22/24. Summary: On a routine time travel assignment to the past, Draco stumbles upon 7-year-old Harry Potter and witnesses his neglect and mistreatment by the Dursleys. In the moment, there is only one solution, even if it goes against all his training as a Time Agent: he has to bring Harry back to the future with him. In which Draco burns his life down for the sake of his former school rival. Comment: I think I followed this one from the start as I do everything @oflights! OMG the action, the tenseness, the magical lore, the worldbuilding, and the sweetness of Draco raising young Harry will have you banging that "next chapter" button. The Drarry in this happens slowly and has its ups and downs but so so worth the wait. The bond is strong and at the end and you will recognize and cheer for this Harry who says Fuck it all, I ain't letting this go.
4. Spotlight (All Eyes on Us) (58K) by @pixiedunhoff completed 3/15/24. This is the 5th and final installment of the Dark Arts to Dance Floor Series (317K) which began posting in July '23. Spotlight Summary: The spotlight can scorch.
“Has the wizarding world ever seen a couple quite like Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter? Though the pair remain frustratingly private and out of the spotlight, hardly ever seen in public together, our readers understandably demand to know more.
‘They’re happy together,’ Minister of Magic Hermione Granger exclusively tells the Prophet, before quickly ducking into a meeting for Squib Rights. ‘They’re so very happy.’”
- Daily Prophet, 2 February 2018 Comment: Pixie says in the notes, you may only need to read the 4th installment to completely get this fic, but hell, I say read them all. Pixie is newer to Drarry writing (longtime reader). I love the casualness and realness of the characters and how they interact. In Spotlight they so capture the feel of being backstage to a 'music rock star' (in the Muggle world) and on the rise in the magical one. As you're reading this fic, it might come across as being a lighter AU type fic, but don't be fooled there is much depth and layers upon layers to both Harry and Draco. Pixie just eases you into it. There were points that I just had to stop reading for a moment and digest exactly what was going on. Pixie will be on my Current WIP list, too! 5. Skybound (61K) by @xanthippe74 Summary: No matter how much Harry Potter wanted to believe he’d left danger behind when the war ended, it found him again anyway. All he had to do was step out his own front door on a Tuesday morning. A Drarry re-imagining of Howl’s Moving Castle.
Comment: I haven't finished this one, yet, but wanted to list it here. It's 6 chapters and I'm only 2 chapters in, but holy hell what world building and magical lore (and one very nasty curse). I'm not familiar with the original source, but that's okay. I'm very happy being carried along in one floating house! I'm a big fan of @xanthippe74 and am fully confident I'll love this as much as the author's other stories. Okay, I'll be back tomorrow with a list of currently posting Drarry WIPs, including two stinging hot A/B/Os, but in very different ways.
Enjoy!
