This is what happens when a workaholic gets free time in her hands. Somehow “I haven��t read enough to make a list this year” became “let’s do four instead”. Clearly this got a bit out of control and it’s very incomplete with Erised still going on, but I want to give a shoutout to all these incredible artists for making my year a whole lot better and for spreading so much joy all around ✨

My media this week (16-22 Jun 2024)

fuck this heat dome for reals

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

🥰 The Settler (charlesdk) - Stucky Book Club pick - 52K, shrunkyclunks, Steve retires & buys a farm, Bucky's the local baker. I really enjoyed this fic - though it is unrealistic fantasy about both small towns and owning a farm so YMMV. As I said in book club, I didn't have any problems doing the hand-wavey "escapist unbelievable small town/farm fantasy of it all" bc Steve's feelings & character were more my (and the author's) focus than his occupation & location. You could really feel Steve's exhaustion and emotions, and I loved the way Sam & Natasha were shown-not-just-told as his family. But also I don't have any deep personal resonance with this setting, other than recognizing it's unrealistic.

🥰 The Marlow Murder Club (The Marlow Murder Club #1) (Robert Thorogood, author; Nicolette McKenzie, narrator) - really entertaining small British village cozy mystery with very enjoyable characters. Had such a blast reading it! The mystery puzzle wasn't difficult to guess but that's not why I read cozies, and it was satisfactory in its twists & turns & fair play.

🥰 Civilians, GDI (relenafanel) - I love it when an author writes an AU of their own fic! AU of The Steve Rogers Problem with SHIELD agent!Bucky & actor!Steve except this time it's a meet ugly and Bucky's a dumbass about his own feelings

😊 The Theory Of Attraction (Delphine Dryden) - novella - good femsub D/s rec'd by the discord. Very satisfactory.

😊 Four Lost Cities: A Secret History of the Urban Age (Annalee Newitz, author; Chloe Cannon, narrator) - nonfiction; "explores the rise and fall of four ancient abandoned cities, each the center of a sophisticated civilization: the Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük in Central Turkey, the Roman vacation town of Pompeii on Italy’s southern coast, the medieval megacity of Angkor in Cambodia, and the indigenous metropolis Cahokia that stood beside the Mississippi River where East St. Louis is today." really interesting and well told (although tbh the narrator sounded a bit AI (but definitely wasn't))

🙂 The Pure and Simple Truth (lettered) - 65K, ostensibly drarry (but in the way that lacroix is ostensibly fruit flavored) - really about all the friendships & how people, the world, and redemption are all complicated - another discord server rec

🥰 Death Comes to Marlow (The Marlow Murder Club #2) (Robert Thorogood, author; Nicolette McKenzie, narrator) - enjoyed Judith & her 'gang' so much I went back for more ASAP!

💖💖 +127K of shorter fic so shout out to these I really loved 💖💖

Like herding cats (JehBeeEh) - Rachel Reid's Game Changers series: Troy/Harris, Ilya/Shane, 1.5K - short but very cute; perfect character voices - love a well done text fic like this

My Heart Comes Tumbling Down (DevilDoll) - TW: Sterek, 5K - reread, forever fave - peak oblivious Stiles who almost fucks everything up

All that I know is I don't know a thing (emjee (MerryHeart)) - TOG: Kaysanova, 10K - "In which Nicky's at seminary because he likes to argue, not because he's becoming a priest, and Joe has missed this essential fact and can't figure out why this future-priest-slash-bartender is flirting with him." SO GOOD!

Beltane (DevilDoll) - TW: Sterek, 8K - reread, forever fave - always-magical-Stiles AU

📺 STUFF I WATCHED 📺

Doctor Who - s1 (series 14), e7

Game Changer - s6, e9

Drarry Aus: Medieval

@annalimirlsblog asked: “... First of all I want to tell you that I really like your stories and I hope I can help you. What do you think about medieval AU? There are so many possibilities...”

Thank you for your prompt! I was trying to figure out a premise, but then I thought of a Medieval D.A. :)) Hope you enjoy it!

Many thanks to @theblowfishdiaries for the beta! ❤ ❤

The Rightful Heir

(Mature, 3.2k) Here’s the start:

Harry gazed at the small crowd that had gathered at the back room of the Hog’s Head, separated by the main inn where the fire burned merrily and a drunken blacksmith had paid the bard to sing bawdy songs about naughty maidens and crafty stable boys. Lascivious lyrics, laughter and lute melodies drifted through the heavy door mingling with the solemn atmosphere in the stone-walled room where the people loyal to Harry sat in grim silence and waited.

With a nod from Hermione, Harry stood and addressed them. ‘I want to thank you for being here. Ever since the usurper, Queen Dolores, assassinated my uncle and took the throne from me, the rightful Heir, I’ve been hunted. Being seen with me is an offence punishable by imprisonment — or worse.’

Every face in his audience indicated they were aware they were risking their lives.

‘Her schemes, her laws, are destroying our land. The poor are getting poorer. The ill are left untreated. Taxes have been raised…’ ‘Harry continued, his voice rising, as everyone nodded or murmured in agreement. ‘I won’t stand by and watch as she ruins the kingdom. My kingdom.’

‘Here, here,’ Ron said, raising his tankard.

‘But how can we fight her?’ Seamus asked, pointing at the group. ‘She’s unstoppable. Her Inquisitorial Squad is everywhere. She has most of the knights at her disposal and you’ve only four; the rest of us here are palace staff, servants, carpenters and—’ No one mentioned his name, but he was there, insolently leaning against the stone wall.

‘And me,’ Draco drawled, examining his fingernails. ‘The Queen’s trusted advisor. It must make you quiver in your boots, doesn’t it, Finnigan?’

‘Yes, Harry — how can we trust a spoiled brat who’s—’

‘Stand down, Ronald, before you hurt yourself,’ Draco said with derision, but Harry interrupted. He knew their quarrels could escalate to the point where they reached for their swords. He also knew that Draco, although not better than Ron at duelling, was willing to cheat in order to win, which is why Harry ensured they never got to exchange blows.

‘Enough. If we start fighting amongst ourselves we’re doomed.’ He exchanged a pointed glance with Ron, who sat back in his chair. Harry addressed the others. ‘A lot of you don’t trust the son of Lord Malfoy because of his connection to the usurper. But I promise you, his offer to assist our endeavour is genuine.’ He turned and glanced directly at Draco. ‘And if he betrays us, I’ll kill him myself.’

The resolve in his words seemed to reassure everyone.

‘Seamus asked a good question,’ Harry said. ‘How can we fight back? There are two ways…’ He glanced at his two best friends, who both spoke at the same time:

‘Sword fighting!’ said Ron.

‘Reading,’ said Hermione, the palace’s librarian.

‘Both.’ Harry looked around. ‘Some of you need to learn to handle weapons; others need to learn to read and write. Knowledge is as important as fighting. The way we will arrange it is thus: I’ll take the sword fighting class. Draco will teach the rest of you reading.’

Groans.

‘Why not Hermione? She’s the scholar,’ Seamus protested.

‘I’m no good with weapons. And,’ she coughed, ‘Ron has promised to teach me how to use a sword.’

‘Yeah, he’ll show you how to hold his sword alright,’ Seamus murmured audibly and some people chuckled until Hermione glared at all of them, and the laughter trailed off.

‘We’ll meet in the woods near the Wolf’s Peak in three days’ time,’ Harry said, signalling the end of their meeting, when Ron’s sister interrupted them.

‘Do we have a name? Our group of fighters, the resistance — we need an identity.’

‘Ehm, OK? Any ideas?’

‘Harry Potter Rightful King to the Throne’s Fighting Group,’ Colin said.

‘That’s a mouthful,’ Seamus laughed.

‘That’s what she said,’ Ron piped and everyone laughed — even Draco struggled to keep a straight face.

‘Death to Dolores Faction?’ Dean offered.

‘It might be a good idea,’ Luna said from the back, ‘not to advertise what we’re doing. In case we ever need to talk about it in public.’

I’ve a cool one,’ Ernie said. ‘The Death Eaters.’

Ron snorted. ‘What‘ve you been reading?’

Ernie scowled but Harry agreed with Ron. ‘Too occult. Sounds like a group prancing around in masks, doing dark deeds in exchange for immortality.’

Draco spoke then. ‘How about the Defiant Association?’

Everyone mulled over it, but no objections came. Harry said, ‘Perfect. We can call it D.A. for short.’

As everyone took their leave and shut the door behind them, Harry rubbed his temples. ‘Do you think it’s madness?’

‘I do,’ Draco’s voice came from beside him, ‘but madness might be the only way out of this mess.’ He stroked Harry’s back, and Harry wrapped his arm around him and drew him close.

‘Thank you,’ he whispered. ‘Thank you for helping me.’

‘Of course,’ Draco said and kissed him. He brushed a lock of Harry’s hair back from his forehead and sighed. ‘Although I have to say it’s too revolutionary… teaching chambermaids and the gardener’s kid to read and write. Useless.’

‘Hermione insists,’ Harry said. He lowered his head to leave a trail of kisses on Draco’s neck. ‘We could’ve told them, you know. That we’re together.’

‘And have everyone doubt you because they assume your decision-making is guided by your dick? Bad idea. Besides, Ginevra harbours some affection for you, still.’

Harry sighed. ‘I told you it was before we met—’

‘You mean before you saw me relaxing in the baths and molested me?’

Harry smiled and gave Draco’s neck a gentle bite. ‘I seem to remember you enjoying it. Oh yes, Harry… faster, Harry…’

Draco poked him in mock indignation, and Harry laughed. He buried his face in Draco’s hair and inhaled his citrus-and-cedar scent. ‘We’d better leave. Separately.’

Draco kissed Harry. ‘See you in the forest in three days.’

The clearing at the Caves at the foot of Wolf’s Peak was the perfect location for their illicit activities. In a grove by the stream, Draco had sat down with those who needed to learn their letters: among others was Neville, the gardener’s son; Colin, Harry’s servant; Lavender, the chambermaid; and, to his distress, Seamus, who as a man-at-arms’ apprentice was well-versed in the art of holding a sword, but not in the art of holding a quill.

Harry had shown the rest of them the first basic rule of sword fighting, which was to parry an advance. He and Dean demonstrated types of advances and how to deflect them, and then the group split in twos or threes while Harry and his knights (Ernie, Dean, Ron, Susan) supervised and assisted.

An hour later, pleased with the progress of his students, Harry allowed himself a moment to gaze at Draco as he corrected Seamus’s wrong answer with ill-concealed glee. Draco’s hair shone in the slanting light, creating a halo around his head. He must have sensed Harry watching, because he turned and sent Harry a small smile; secret, just for the two of them.

Harry smiled back, holding his gaze for a moment before returning to the practice duels. Ron and Hermione stood at the edge of the clearing where Ron demonstrated a front guard — as always Hermione was the most advanced of the group — and she copied his movements in the precise, meticulous way she applied to everything. Next to them, Dean was showing one of the textile merchant’s daughters how to use her feet for balance, while her twin observed closely. Ginny, handy with a sword since she was young, dueled with Cho, the Ambassador’s daughter, and Cho fought back, her long hair tied in a high bun, her forehead gathering beads of sweat.

‘Take it easy, Ginny,’ Harry called. ‘Even wooden practice swords can cause damage.’

‘She can take it,’ Ginny smiled at Cho, her cheeks flushing as she spoke. ‘She’s a fast learner. But I’ll be careful.’

Cho beamed. ‘Do your worst, Ginevra.’

Ginny smiled wickedly and raised her sword. Harry left them to it and corrected Luna’s hold. ‘This isn’t a scalpel,’ he reminded her of her healer training. ‘Put some thrust in it.’

Harry watched Luna sparring with her partner, a wine merchant’s daughter if memory served, who seemed particularly reluctant to fight back. Harry switched them up with Ron and Hermione — ignoring Ron’s scowls — and had Luna partner with him, feeling Hermione would be a better match for this girl... Marion? Morgana? His memory failed him. He’d ask Draco for her name later.

After two long hours, as dusk fell creating long shadows on the grass and the birds called the night in, it was time to leave. The women changed in the cave out of their fighting gear and into their normal dresses, and everyone left in twos or threes. Harry sat in the cave mouth with Ron and Hermione, discussing the first day’s training, while Draco disappeared down the back of the caves.

‘I can bring some more parchment tomorrow,’ Hermione said. ‘And books so they can practice reading at home. No one’s going to miss some of the old tomes.’ She glanced at the shadows in the cave behind them and lowered her voice. ‘Despite his personal shortcomings, I’m impressed that Draco taught them half the alphabet in one lesson.’

Ron snorted. ‘Difficult job.’

Harry ignored his taunt. ‘Intelligence says that Queen Dolores has got wind of our project. Do we know if anyone talked?’

Ron’s eyes widened. ‘Queen Dolores knows?’

‘Suspects,’ Harry corrected.

‘And you wonder who talked? Are you being stupid on purpose?’ Ron raised his voice. He pointed a finger at the back of the cave. ‘He could bring an army here to capture you and your “project”!’

‘He won’t. Draco won’t.’ Harry stood, indicating the conversation was over, but Ron wouldn’t let it go.

‘You’re playing with fire and endangering all of us by trusting him.’

‘Ron’s right,’ Hermione said. ‘If there’s a reason you trust him, we should know.’

Harry stared at the forest ahead. It’d gone dark now, emptying of colour but filling with sound. Bugs and critters chirped in the undergrowth and birds cawed to one another. ‘I can’t tell you yet. But he’s the one who brought me the news that Queen Dolores is aware that something is brewing. Draco spies for us.’

Ron didn’t seem convinced. ‘If he’s playing you, Harry, we’ll all end up dead.’ Hermione tugged him away and they disappeared through the trees.

‘They’ll never trust me, you know,’ a silky voice said behind Harry. Two arms circled Harry’s waist and Harry felt Draco’s breath on his cheek as he tugged Harry close. ‘They’ll always suspect.’ He kissed Harry’s neck and whispered in his ear, ‘Come. I found something.’

Draco took Harry’s hand, a torch in the other, and led him to the back. The narrow cave led to what seemed like a dead end, but Draco slid inside an opening that barely fit one person. If Harry hadn’t seen Draco slip inside the crack in the wall, he’d have no idea a passage existed behind it.

Ten steps later, the narrow passage opened to a cathedral-tall cave. ‘It’s dry,’ Draco said, ‘and airy. Hard to find. We can store things: weapons, dry food, clothing. There might come a time when the Queen discovers who the renegades are. We need a hideout.’

The torch light played on Draco’s face, illuminating his cheekbones and the soft curve of his mouth. Harry’s longing for Draco sometimes made it hard to breathe, a fist squeezing his lungs. He kissed him, letting his mouth linger on Draco’s as he spoke. ‘You think of everything. But let’s not share it with anyone else yet — not until we figure out who spoke to her.’

Draco placed the torch down, cupped Harry’s face and kissed him. He rubbed his hardening cock against Harry’s thigh in slow, circular movements, spreading wildfire through Harry’s veins. ‘For now the cave can be used for different purposes,’ Draco murmured.

Harry smiled and threw his cloak on the ground as a blanket before pulling Draco on it. He slipped a hand inside Draco’s breeches, palming his hot pulsing cock. ‘What different purposes?’

Draco grinned and proceeded to show him in excruciating detail.

WIPITTY SNIPPITY

@purplehotmess thanks for the tag, lovely!!

So @basicallyahedgehog also tagged me in Wip Snip stuff, and thanks to you as well, my love. This is dedicated to you, my love, because I wrote this today for one of my two recent Ideas, and you always talk me down when my negative self-talk kicks in, and I doubt I'd have started this WIP without you. (Also tagging anyone who hasn't been tagged yet!)

Harry sat on the work table on the opposite wall, watching as Draco gripped the hammer in his fist and brought it down onto the steel, still glowing from the furnace. Clang clang clang clang it hit the steel over and over again, the material molding to Draco’s ministrations so it narrowed. Harry noticed the flex of his arm, the sweat beading at his brow from the exertion and the heat of the furnace, the way he grunted softly every so often when he gave it a particularly hard whack.

The sound should’ve been abrasive to Harry’s ears. He should’ve taken his leave then, or at the very least dampened the noise with his palms. But instead he sat there, mesmerized at watching Draco work.

After a while, Draco finally stopped and looked up, glaring slightly. “Gawk at me all you please, Sir Potter, but get your arse off my work table.”

#wip snip #MEDIEVAL AU BABY #step 1 of writing a medieval au: learn how to spell medieval lol #KNIGHT!HARRY AND BLACKSMITH!DRACO #I GOT IDEAS!!!#will this fic be for The Series?#Who knows???#Certainly not me!#Or do I???#*makes spooky noises*#anyway #drarry

Bubonic

Written for the prompt: sick CW: sickness, death, suffering, Narcissa/Lucius are dead Father had fallen ill first. He brought it home to mother, who died soon after. Now he was alone. There was no one left to care for him as the trembling took hold.

His entire body burned but he couldn’t stop shaking. Sweat glistened on his skin as he lowered himself onto the pile of hay he usually slept on, preparing to lay there until he died, however long that may be.

His mouth became dry and tacky as the heat burnt all of the moisture out of his body. The straw beneath him stuck to his damp face, the musty smell further agitating his airways. His head throbbed violently as he tried to turn over, making his vision swim.

Squeezing his eyes shut, he tried to block out the pain and fear that consumed him. He hoped it’d be over soon. He hoped it wouldn’t drag out for days like it had for others. He hoped when he opened his eyes, he’d be with mother and father again.

The sound of footsteps startled him awake. He wasn’t sure how long he’d been asleep for, but sharp pain was shooting up his arms and legs with every subtle movement. The intruder approached him slowly.

He panicked, gasping out, “Not… Not dead.” His voice was hoarse and it hurt to speak.

Please, Don’t let them throw him on a pile of rotting corpses. He knew the body collectors would occasionally check unresponsive houses, but those bodies weren’t always dead.

“Malfoy?”

He froze, he knew that voice. It was his neighbor from down the street. They’d never gotten along, infact, they practically hated each other. They were always getting into fist fights or stealing each other's livestock. He tried to curl his lips into a sneer but it came out as a grimace.

Great, now he was going to be strangled to death.

“Why... Why are you on the floor? There’s a bed right there.” Harry pointed towards the back of the house.

“It’s not…” He gasped, his head pounding with every word, “Mine.”

Harry frowned down at him, “Come on. Let’s move you.”

“No. Don’t.. Don’t touch me. Just go away.” Draco couldn’t keep the waver out of his voice.

“I’m not going to hurt you. But you’ll be more comfortable off of the floor.” Harry sighed heavily, “It’s your house now, you know.”

“I didn’t.. I didn’t want it.” He could hear his voice cracking. Before he could say anything else, Harry grabbed onto his arms and pulled him upwards. Without meaning to, he let out a whimper of pain, staggering and collapsing onto Harry, who quickly caught him. He could feel his body shaking under the strain of standing, “I.. I can’t walk.”

Harry tightened his grip around Malfoy’s center, “I won’t drop you. It’s just over there.”

He limped across the floor, wincing with every step as Harry helped to hold him upright. He collapsed onto the hard, wooden bed frame, curling into a fetal position. Feeling another trembling fit take hold, he bit down on his teeth, trying to keep himself from chattering.

“Why..?” He gasped out once his shivering had subsided enough to talk.

“You’re the only one left, Malfoy.” Harry had a haunted look in his eyes, “I.. I can’t… watch you die too.”

“You.. you’re going to have to.”

“No!” Harry curled his fingers into trembling fists and turned, stomping out of the front door that was barely hanging on at the hinges.

Draco wrapped his arms around his chest, surprised at the sudden sadness that consumed him. Maybe he really didn’t want to die alone. But now Harry was gone. He’d given him a taste of hope and then he’d run.

At least he wasn’t inhaling dust anymore. At least he’d be able to die a little bit more comfortably.

He flinched as Harry suddenly rushed back in, carrying a pail full of sloshing water. He set it down next to Draco, dipping a cup into it and handing it to him.

He gasped, frantically grabbing at the cup, his arms so weak he nearly dropped it. Harry helped to hold his arms up, guiding the water to his mouth. He swallowed it hungrily, the cold water feeling like ice in his mouth. Even Harry’s hands felt cold against his scorching skin. The cup was soon empty and then refilled.

“I.. I thought you left.” He murmured in between gulps.

“I told you I wasn’t going to let you die.” Harry said, shaking his head, “I wouldn’t say that and then just leave you to die.”

“No. You said.. You didn’t want to watch me die. Which is… exactly what you’d be doing if you tried to help.”

Harry glowered at him, “You’re not going to die.”

Draco let out a grunt, “Everyone else.. Has died. Why not me?”

“Because I won’t let you.”

He laughed, he didn’t mean to. But it was such a stupid response, he couldn’t not laugh. He winced, his stomach cramping, “Ow.”

Harry sighed, “You should eat something.”

“I’m.. really not hungry.”

“I don’t care. You’re eating.”

Draco frowned, staring up at Harry with worried eyes, “I only have bread and I’m sure the rats have gotten it by now.”

“I’ll get you something. Wait here.”

“Because I have so many places to be.” He grimaced, closing his eyes against the pounding headache.

Draco waited in silence. Still confused as to why Harry was being so nice to him. He’d never done anything to deserve it. He’d nearly fallen asleep when he heard footsteps.

Harry prodded his shoulder, “Malfoy?”

He blinked his eyes open, squinting up at him.

“Here.” Harry opened the cloth in his hands, setting it on the bed next to him,” I know it’s not a lot. But I rationed it out.”

“No. No, Harry.” Draco stared at the slice of bread, salted meat, and square of white cheese in horror, “Don’t.. Don’t waste that on me. I’m probably going to be dead by the end of the week anyways.”

“You will be if you only eat bread. Just eat it, please.”

Draco stared at the ration with watery eyes. It’d been years since he’d had meat. His parents could never get their hands on it. His hands trembled as he picked up the chunk, taking a bite out of it. He let out a contented sigh, quickly swallowing the rest of it.

“It’s just cheese from the goat, but it should be okay.” Harry sat on the frame of the bed, watching Draco with concern.

Draco shook his head, “Why? I .. I don’t understand. You .. you should want me dead.”

“I’ve told you why already. Eat, please. Before I force it down your throat.”

He sighed, breaking off a small piece of cheese and letting it melt on his tongue, “Thank you.” he murmured.

Harry just nodded.

Once Draco had finished eating everything on the cloth, Harry helped him take another drink of water. He felt his eyes drooping and rested his head against his own arm. He just wanted to sleep. Maybe it would take the pounding pain and relentless heat away, even for a moment. He slipped into unconsciousness, his body was terribly exhausted and he had no reason to stay awake.

His body stirred multiple times but never quite enough to fully wake up. He’d doze in and out of a fitful sleep before he’d relax. When his eyes finally opened, everything felt heavy. He let out a groan, the heat and shivering returning with a vengeance.

Harry woke to the sound of Draco’s pain, turning to comfort him, “Here, I’ll get you some water.”

The cup was placed against his lips, all he had to do was swallow. The water tasted old but it was still frightfully frigid against his hot mouth.

“T-thanks.” He murmured, his trembling increasing with the introduction of water.

Harry’s eyebrows creased with worry, “What can I do?”

He shook his head, “There.. There isn’t anything.”

Draco gradually grew worse with every passing day. Until Buboes started to grow on the underside of his neck, making it increasingly hard to speak. They burned and itched, threatening to burst if he moved in the wrong way. Others grew after the first, in his armpits and groin. Everything hurt. His arms. His throat. His head.

His pale skin had dark black splotches, blood that had dried beneath the surface. When he first saw them he’d gone pale with fright. Now, they were all over his body, new ones appearing every day. His frantic trembling never went away, no matter how hot he grew. Every time he looked at himself he felt violently ill. He no longer recognized the sickly yellow pallor of his skin.

“Harry.” He no longer recognized his own voice. It was too weak, too small.

Harry was already there, grasping his hand in his own. His green eyes were wide and terrified, “I’m here.”

He took a shuddering breath, “It’s okay. You.. you don’t have to watch anymore. You.. you can go.”

Please, don’t. Please, don’t leave me.

“No. Stop.. stop saying that. You’re not going to die.”

His face crumpled, he couldn’t hold it back any longer, “Harry.. Please. You.. you can’t stop lying to yourself.”

Draco let out a pained whine when Harry pressed a wet cloth against the side of his face, his hand shaking, “You’re not going to die.”

Painfully hot tears slid down his cheeks as he let out a frantic sob, “I’m.. I’m scared, Harry.”

“You’re not going to die.”

“I.. I’m being punished. I.. I killed them all, Harry. It’s all m-my fault. I.. I’ve been bad.. I..”

“Stop. Stop that. You didn’t bring the bad air here.” Harry pressed the palm of his hand against Draco’s cheek. It was still cold but it didn’t burn like the cloth, so he leaned into the touch.

He could hear the familiar ringing of the body cart being wheeled down the street and the tired call of, “Bring out your dead!”

Draco squeezed his eyes shut, focusing on the cool hand cradling his sweat riddled face. He could almost block out the sound of bodies being thrown and the squeaking of the cart.

Fingers drifted through Draco’s uncomfortably itchy hair and he sighed in relief, squinting up at Harry through tired eyes.

The day the first Buboe popped, Draco knew he’d made it through the worst of it. He was weak and exhausted and felt like his skull was going to split open, but he allowed himself to hope. Most people didn’t live long enough for them to pop open, so if they did, you were probably going to survive.

“I.. guess you were right.” Draco relented.

Harry sat on the edge of the bed heavily, taking a deep breath, “Told you.”

Draco stared, just now noticing the sheen of sweat on Harry’s face.

👀👀👀 Historical AU where one of them is a Prince and the other works at the castle and they run away together?

Father knew. Draco saw it in the way he held his body, in the way he never directed his glance at him. He knew.

Feeling his hands tremble, Draco clutched the silverware, hoping it'd stop the shaking. It only made it worse.

Father knew. Their time was running out.

He took the first chance he got to leave the banquet hall. Father would come for him the moment this feast was over. And Draco refused to think of what would happen once he did.

He waited till nobody could possibly hear him before he started a sprint through the castle. Draco didn't have many things he could pack up, everything would give away who he was. He ended up taking things he could sell or trade, the bit of gold he had lying around, and the most basic set of clothes he owned which still screamed prince to everyone looking. It had to do.

His time was running out.

Hearing angry footsteps coming up to his door, Draco froze for a second.

Not the time for panic.

Shaking his head, Draco entered the secret passageway he had found years ago. It ended next to the kitchen, which was exactly where he wanted to be.

Slipping out, he stood straight and hid his fear before storming into the kitchen, demanding for the boy of the cook to pack him a bag he could take out on a hunt and bring it to the stable. The cook bowed, and Draco caught Harry's eyes before he gave him a short nod.

It was their secret message, he knew they had to run. And Draco knew Harry was ready.

He saddled the horses himself while waiting for Harry to join him, feeling his heart sting as he looked around. He'd miss mother, and his castle. But everything was better than what his father would do to him once he found him.

A soft peck to his cheek snapped him out of his misery. Harry's face was warm and soft as he looked at Draco before he helped him get the horses ready.

"Where will we go?" Draco asked, a tremble I'm his voice.

"I know a place. Trust me, we'll be fine. They'll accept us there."

If there was anyone he trusted it was Harry. Harry with his soft heart and lips that tasted like honey. So Draco climbed onto his horse before they set off into the night. Into a new life. Together.

Uranus

1.2k of medieval AU for the last day of the series! All my thanks to @nv-md for the incredible beta.

This was not how it was meant to go.

It was very simple, actually; he kills the dragon, saves the princess, lives happily ever after. Does some… knightly duties, who the hell knows. It was supposed to be simple. All the books made it out to be a piece of bloody cake. He just needed to be brave enough to go on the quest, pure of heart enough to pass the trials, strong enough to beat the beast, and then – well. Harry didn’t really know what you were meant to do with a princess. Be kind, maybe? The way he figured, he’d cross that bridge when he got there. But then he went on the fucking journey, and guess what. Nothing was as it was supposed to be.

For starters, the trials were a joke. An old lady in a ghost-town asked him to kill a snake which was, at best, the size of a large lizard. Harry took pity on it. Instead of ‘slaying’ the monster, he kept it in his satchel, named him Fredrick. Fed him dead mice he found on the Great Plains. Honestly, as if that was anywhere near what he’d expected.

For the second trial, he had to ‘fight’ this ‘demon’ in black robes. “The Demon knows all your greatest fears,” an ancient mage warned him. But Harry saw the shoes underneath the hem of his cloak, their soles covered in shit. And if there was anything Harry knew for certain, it was that he wasn’t scared of shit.

It continued like this for a while. There was a hole blown right through the ‘Terrifying Maze of Fate’. The glowing orb was supposed to ‘reveal his destiny’, but Harry sort of accidentally broke it, and he didn’t stick around to heed its warnings. There was a book, said to be written in blood, that contained the most horrific curses known to man. Harry just never opened it. Honestly, did they think he was that stupid?

Fredrick was good company, at least, walking through the desert. Through the jungle. Through the snow. It was there in the frozen ridge, finally, that his journey was to come to an end; from afar Harry could see the smoke, indicative of the beast. His dragon. His true test. It has finally arrived.

The mountains surrounding the castle were oddly shaped, and difficult to push through. Squeezing between their crevasses, Harry could have sworn he’d occasionally hear them snore. But at least this was hard; this bit finally fit the description. He was getting closer. Happily-ever-after was right around the corner. And so he made it, exhausted, to the foot of the castle, and climbed the foreboding stairs of the watch tower. A great perch hung inside, and on it lay…

Nothing? No. A bird. A teeny, tiny, snow-white, chirping bird. An owl? What in the name of god?

“Looking for something?” a voice startled him, and Harry turned around, sword drawn. It was a man – tall, slender, very pale, with a long braid of blond hair slung across one broad shoulder. He had the brightest pair of grey eyes Harry had ever seen. And Harry, who was usually quite brave, found himself unwittingly frightened.

“Who the hell are you?”

“I could be asking you the same question. You’re the one who just invaded my castle.”

“Your – “ Harry tried, lost. He’d heard of shape-shifting dragons before, sure, but… the man didn’t really seem like one. He was too dainty to be a dragon. Too – what’s the word – beautiful. “I came to free the princess,” Harry said at long last, because he truly didn’t know what else to do. The man emitted a loud sound which, shockingly enough, turned out to be laughter.

“Oh, Merlin, not another one of you knights? I thought that was all over and done with.”

Confusion flooded his cheeks with color. “Well, you were wrong. I am here to fight for the princess.”

“Goodness. Look, Sir -?”

“Harry.”

“Sir Harry, there’s been a mistake. There is no princess here.”

What was most terrifying was the glimmer in the grey eyes as the man looked at him. Terrifying, because it was very much not so. “I don’t understand. Has – has the dragon eaten her?”

“Eaten her? Gracious, no. I’d sent the dragon away… lord, ages ago. Ice giants are far more efficient guards, in any case. Not the brightest, but certainly less likely to set your bedding on fire. Although they do tend to be rather gassy.”

“Ice giants?” Harry’s head was spinning. “Wait a second. Guards? Are you – are you the one keeping the princess captive?”

The roll of his eyes was inexplicably sweet. “You’re a slow one, aren’t you? There is no princess here, Sir Harry. Or, should I say, if there was any princess here, it’d be me. Princess Draco, if you wish. And I have retired to this castle especially so I could avoid the likes of you. I have no desire to be rescued or fought for – in fact, I’m quite capable of fighting my own battles. The dragon is gone; if you wish to meet her, I could point you in the right direction. Now, if that’ll be all…”

Harry grabbed his wrist before he had the chance to leave. “Wait.”

The grey in his eyes became steel-hard. “Unhand me. Now.”

Harry obeyed, immediately, as though his touch was fire.

“I just… wait, all right?”

“No, not quite. I have had it up to here with you holier-than-thou, mighty knights who slay without reason or care, who choose brute force over mind, who have no regards for the life around them. Let me guess, it took you a second and a half to kill the poor snake, right? And then – what are you doing?”

Harry took Fredrick out of his bag. “You mean this snake?”

“I…” he didn’t even know why he wanted Draco to stay. Only that there was something there, something… only that he wanted him to. Living the life he should have led was exhausting and usually dissatisfying. Princess Draco was – unexpected. Different.

“Look, I just want to talk to you. Can we do that?” he could see the doubt in Draco’s eyes. “Also, if you have any mice for Fredrick, he’d be much obliged.”

Draco just stared at him for a long moment. Then, in a grunt, “Oh, all right, I suppose you can come inside. But only for the snake. He will be fed, and then you will leave.” He led them down the stairs, and Harry was rather sure he heard him mutter, “even if you do have a rather fetching rear-end…”

Well. This was certainly not how it was supposed to go. It was as far from simple as possible, and to be perfectly frank, Harry had no idea how to feel right now. He just knew that whatever it was that did happen, he wasn’t disappointed. Harry followed him, curious, confused, free.

The last day of Reaching for the Stars was inspired by Uranus, an ice giant (also a gas giant, if you’d believe it) four times as wide as earth! Had to make an arse joke there, didn’t I? Thank you so much for reading, I had a blast doing this series! So sad that it has to be over... Or does it?

Previous days: Venus, Neptune, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars

Drarry medieval AU, featuring silly Draco and powerful Harry

Part 2 (Previous: 1)

Malfoy faced Potter on a fine day, all sun and no gale, just the right amount of crisp in the air. The ladies at court streamed into the arena in droves, coloring the benches with red velvets and green silks. A few readied themselves to fall into dead swoon, only to be reprimanded by Lady Parkinson.

"How droll. Draco will win, of course. This country boy is no match for his prowess," she declared breezily, staring down her pug nose at the contestants.

But the intelligent Lady Granger murmured a quiet dissent. "I wouldn't be so sure."

That said, Malfoy did appear to have the advantage. Sitting tall and straight atop his expensive destrier, his hair a golden halo around his fair, ivory face, 15-year-old Draco Malfoy looked the very image of a regal aristocrat in the first blush of youth. He surveyed the field with a confident smirk, his stormy grey eyes lit with arrogance.

Potter, on the other hand, was more weatherbeaten, that could not be denied. Sir Lupin had found him in a border town, living among peasants. And yet, that somehow did not seem to detract from his charm. There was an enticing wildness about him hitherto unseen at court--from the tumbling mess of his black curls, to the laser focus of his gem-like eyes, to the coiled wiry, muscles beneath his second rate armor. Sitting atop a common stable horse, he was nonetheless regal in his own way, with the frenetic air of an untamed beast.

Standing to one side of Malfoy, Zabini asked, "You ready?"

"Am I ready? Pff." Draco sneered in the direction of Potter. "I'm sure he's never jousted before, just look at his hold on the lance. I'll destroy him."

Nott, on his other side, smiled enigmatically and said nothing.

The contestants put on their helmets and raised their lances, Zabini and Nott stepped away, the crowds began chanting Mal-foy Mal-foy. . . And they charged! Aha! Malfoy's destrier ran with power and speed; Malfoy himself held his lance with elegance and skill! Malfoy was the very spirit and vision of grace, he will kill Potter in a moment (Lady Lavender Brown fell into a dead swoon). And--

Oh goodness! But Draco Malfoy was knocked clean off his horse! Victory to Potter!

The arena experienced one second of hushed silence, then erupted into wild, defeaning cheers. Pot-ter! Pot-ter! (Lady Parkinson swooned.)

Draco sat on his bum, dazed and confused. What just happened? Could it be that . . . he had lost? To Potter? He removed his helmet slowly, eyes wide with disbelief.

His opponent trotted over just then and dismounted. Potter reached out a hand and said, "Didn't mean to knock you off. You're not badly hurt, are you?"

Draco stared at him a moment before harshly swatting the offensive hand away.

"I won't forget this, Potter! I won't!" he cried, hopping up with a grunt of pain. "Just you wait!" And with that, he stormed off in a huff to his group of friends and admirers (dramatic effect somewhat curtailed, though, by the way he hobbled).

Harry Potter remained in place, staring after Malfoy with cold green eyes and an air of bemused exasperation.

The prompt for this one was ‘metamorphosis from @drarrymicrofic

It’s a little something that’s been in my head for a while and I really wanted to turn it into something bigger. I might actually, when I’m done with my other WIP 😏

Drarry microfic: Metamorphosis

The water touched his bare toes. It was cold but oddly inviting. It had never been like that. Not until he had met him.

A pale blond head poked above the surface a little further in the water, bobbing on the rhythm of the waves.

He was waiting for him. It was time.

Harry took a step forward, the water now caressing his ankles. But he didn’t stop there. He kept walking. Farther and farther away from the rocky shore.

Draco met him when he was already shoulders deep in the cold, salty water. His pale arms wrapped around his waist to keep him steady. “You are ready?”

It were three short words. Draco had never spoken with too many words. His English wasn’t that good. They didn’t communicate like that down there.

Harry could only nod his head. He was ready. As ready as he would ever be.

It wasn’t like he had much to stay for anyway. He was an orphan without any friends. A child even the pirates, that visited the village frequently, weren’t interested in taking him with them on their adventures.

So what did he have to lose?

Before he knew it, Draco’s cool lips were on his and Harry felt completely lost. There was nothing else besides Draco.

He didn’t even notice how he was pulled underwater.

He didn’t notice how his lungs slowly filled with the freezing water.

He didn’t notice how his legs morphed into a long, dark tail - a fair contrast to Draco’s pale one.

It didn’t matter anyway. Harry finally felt like he belonged for the very first time in forever. And everything had changed by a simple Siren’s Kiss.

Prompt from 16th March 2021
