Short Dramione fic review (and some spoilers too)
I just finished reading Initially Yours by Hufflepuffmommy for god knows how many days I've been trying to finish.
Although there weren't that many words, I just took my time. I didn't feel the anxiety of missing out on Dramione fics anymore, compared to the beginning of this year, when I had just finished Manacled.
This fic was so fluffy and lighthearted I felt weird. I have read Manacled, Uncoffined, Mudblood(dnf), and Water(dnf), all of which are dark in nature, that I got used to the heart wrenching, gut stretching feelings.
What weirded me out even more was that all of them were partnered. Like, I'm happy for them, and it's like reading this teenage school fic. 😂
Astoria x Harry, Theo x Daphne, Pansy x Seamus, Ginny x Blaise, Luna x Neville.
There weren't that many dramas too. It's so lighthearted I got a bit lightheaded. It was lovely though.
This fic started with not even them being enemies. There weren't fights nor misunderstandings that took chapters. If anything happened, they'd be resolved in the same chapter that it happened.
I'm glad there was still smut in it though.
HEA.

Short Dramione fic review: Spoilers may be mentioned (but not really)
Currently trying to rapidly finish this dramione fic called Water by Kissherdraco. Alexa play Water by Tyla.
Draco is absolutely insufferable it's so out of touch lol
He is a fcking h0e/fckboy whatever that you want to call it. Now the tags say Draco is toxic, is a piece of sh1t, so it wasn't that surprising, but damn. After reading fics where Draco's sex life isn't really explicitly told, it's just mentioned that he's had experience, this story is a breath of some acid anhydride. I thought, would the Draco really be sleeping around with all the girls? I thought he'd have some standard😂 Well, Pansy is good enough, and I have read that they had some rship in the books. But this Draco is really.... 💀
Hermione in the story is well... ok, I guess. The only problem is that I also hoped she wouldn't be the virgin. Draco has had his time. Why not Hermione, also, even if it's with one guy like Viktor, just so that she has experience?
Now the most unbelievable thing in this story, for me, is that Lucius is a wife beater. Lawd have mercy. 😭😂💀
The writing reminds me of how I also wrote my fics when I was 12 - the lack of, or at times even random spacing of the conversations, the immediate shifting of POVs with no italics, with the use of first person POV in the middle of the paragraph, like it's the main narrative....
The premise is good. It's the way it's written that boggles my mind 😂
Update: I stopped at chapter 12, where the first s3x happens. I think I have had enough. It's just... not worth it anymore. It's a headache to read.

Short Dramione fic review (and some spoilers too)
I was scrolling through my AO3 tab sorting Dramione fics created from 2011 to 2015, because I wanted to experience reading fresh-from-the-movies-release works.
Guess what, I came upon another lady_of_clunn work. I knew it was dark, but there weren't tags similar to the other work I had talked about (the 3sum), so I decided to read it.
The title of the story is Hostage of War. This was said to be written for Draco Big Bang 2010, so I guess it was just posted on AO3 year/s later (2012).
In this story, Hermione and Draco play as themselves ( bc the previous lady of clunn work I read had Hermione change identity). There's this contract between Dumbledore and Voldy, and they were exchanging their followers, or, forcing their followers to live together, rather.
It goes well, because ause H and D are in this rship with just the 2 of them. No third party whatsoever thanks god.
HOWEVER, lord have mercy, we get to a chapter where we see whom Hermione had a past relationship with, and it was fcking Severus. Fix it, Jesus. 😭😭😮💨😮💨���💀 In this story, Snape is dead, but he has a portrait in the Malfoy manor, and Draco observed how Hermione talked with the portrait, and later on Hermione herself talked about her relationship with Snape.
There was also this part, which, I think, would be considered the darkest moment, where H was forced to dpthrt D in front of the Death Eaters and some members of the Order because H volunteered to receive/perform the "punishment" instead of Ginny. 🫠
This fic was a short read, with just 10 chapters, hence I binged in the late hours again before I went to sleep.

Short Dramione fic review (and some spoilers too)
I just read another dark Dramione fic, entitled Uncoffined by lady_of_clunn. Published back in 2012, lord have mercy.
I found it on reddit, and I decided to read it because the commenter stated that this was the supposed inspiration for the famous Manacled.
It was a short read thank gods, with only 13 chapters, but it was quite heavy on the chest. I now saw the circumstances and its similarities with Manacled. The writing style was also quite similar, and Draco's title of High Reeve was fcking there, oh my god. 😮😮
I praise the lordts that Manacled portrayed Dramione as having this monogamous relationship. This, Uncoffined, fcked me up, because Hermione was fcking shared , my brothers and sisters in christ. 💀🤢 It was just one time, but goddamn! Worse, Draco willingly decided to do so, also because he was drunk. And who was this other guy? It was Blaise. The only redeeming (redeeming? More like acceptable?) part I guess was that only Draco was inside; Blaise got the mouth only. Fcking hell. I read the tags of it having a 3sum, but when I read the there were these 2 guys doing a girl in the first chapter (which did not involve Draco nor Hermione), I thought that was the 3sum we were going to get. I did not expect the 3sum to actually involve our MCs. 😭😩🫠
So in here Draco was the one who got caught and was imprisoned in Azkaban. However, Hermione got intel about the raids etc (like in Manacled) indirectly. She listened to the convo of the Death Eaters whilst having dinner, and she wrote them down. Although she "wh0red" herself, and had a contract, it wasn't to gather intel, rather it was done because Draco thought she really was one, and he didn't know she was Hermione because she so-called glamoured herself and named herself Jeanne. He wanted to be, and did become, her only "client" through that.
It was angsty, yes, of course, with the tag. But the HEA tag I did not see. I'm glad it was HEA though.

I spent my Christmas reading Manacled by SenLinYu, with special thanks to cocomendo on Tiktok (for the bookbinding vid which intrigued me to go ahead and read Manacled), and I just wanna share the songs I listened to that matched some scenes. There are only a few songs because I couldn't really focus on reading if I kept on trying to match a song to each and every scene I read. So I listened mostly to instrumentals like cooking sounds in the background 😫🫠
Anyways.
The very first song is yad. I thought abt this song and listened to it when I read the part where there was a party going on, H was looking down; D kissed his wife for the cameras, but he shifted his gaze to H. Like it was fcking intense.
Next song, somewhere at the start of the flashbacks when H & D first did it, and I felt like they were trying to deny their feelings for each other, I though about, and listened to No Love by August.
Now when I was nearing the last 3 chapters of the flashbacks, and you know it was when they were making all these crucial decisions about who saves who, and H was struggling to like put pieces together because she had to find out a way to save D when he revealed that his name was all over Sussex, I thought that if this were an anime, and it had an ending song, these last flashback chapters would defo be great with Muni Long's Made for Me, because remember we're reading from H POV (not in the first person), and I imagined H walking with all these memories of her and D, and the Order, going on in the background (like those anime ending themes). This song is also here because it was the time when there were a lot of those Tiktoks with the guy in a wig doing the live Muni Long walk as she sang this. This song at the beginning also mentions "perfume" and I thought yes this is exactly it because H often thinks about D's scent and all 🤪 The lyrics basically put into words what I think are H's feelings for D.
Finally... I just thought about this after I finished the book. I remembered On the Run (Part II) by Jay Z feat. Beyoncé. This would be a great theme for the overall story, and this would be something that played at the very end. H and D 's relationship felt like they should always be on the run, especially after the war. If only they could also run away during the war, but it was impossible to not get caught. For @SenLinYu, from the lyrics of this song, who wants that perfect love story anyway, anyway? Cliché, cliché, cliché, cliché...
———
Special mentions:
YAD (Яд) ENGLISH VERSION
perfectly slowed songs for your hot scenarios — I listened most specifically ar 10:51 part, playing Night Swim by Sidi; mostly when there's a hot scene coming up. I played this usually at the first 25 chapters (before the flashback arc).
Ariana Grande - Let Me Love You ( Slowed & Bass boosted ) Bass — Played this after the flashback arc; Present time xxx scenes.
