[elskanellis]

Said this before but will say it again:

The Covid-era non-AU we all need in this world, reminding us that community matters, that magic happens in our chosen families, that it's a joy to make the world better.

I loved all 69k of this great beast.

@goblinmatriarch I am so grateful to know you and to witness you putting this kind of beauty and community into the world. You're a formidable, terrifying, disheveled, gregarious DELIGHT.

My beautiful baby is finally birthed into the world, screaming and covered in viscera!

Summary: After the War, Harry married Ginny, had three beautiful children, and remained best friends with Hermione and Ron, who had two children of their own, and they all were happily married until they weren't. Harry and Hermione are both struggling to navigate post-divorce parenting, Ministry careers, and then this fucking pandemic hits. If that wasn't bad enough, Draco Malfoy reappears out of nowhere with worrying information about magical wards falling and the future of magic itself at risk. Harry and Hermione will have to navigate horrifying bureaucracy, complex magical rituals, confusingly sexy Slytherins, and Having It All

hey! do you have any recs for fics with good magic theory/worldbuilding? evitative by vichan got me started on drarry, and i’ve been hooked on that trope ever since

What a great ask! Love myself an immersive world building. I’m sharing below some favorites on mine, also thank you @amindamazed for reccing Lily’s Boy by SomewheresSword!

Short fic:

The Slytherin Urn by @icmezzo (E, 4k)

Nothing turns Harry on quite like redemption.

Inside These Walls by RenVeree (M, 5k)

The year before Draco moves to Los Angeles, Harry Potter disappears. Draco doesn't mean to find him. He's just doing his job.

And Save Me From Bloody Men by @blamebrampton (T, 10k)

Draco Malfoy once watched others fighting to stop the world falling apart. This time, he's not just watching.

Wield Me by @tackytigerfic (E, 10k)

Draco Malfoy, blacksmith, is renowned through the magical world for his skill and exquisite creations. He could quite easily spend the rest of his days making pretty trinkets for the fae court, and being handsomely rewarded for the privilege. But why take the easy route when instead he could get involved in a dangerous mission with Unspeakable Harry Potter (who also happens to be Draco's... well, he's something, isn't he?).

Long fic:

Eternally Consistent by kitsunealyc (E, 44k)

Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter assumed they would never be anything but civil enemies, until Potter lands on Malfoy's doorstep, bleeding, covered in curses, and acting very strangely indeed.

Turn From Stone by @harryromper (M, 45k)

Harry knows there’s nothing he can do to stop Hermione (war hero, historian, author of the reissued “Hogwarts: A History”) once she sets her mind to something. Even an extremely risky last-ditch effort to restore the ancient castle and lay its newest ghosts to rest. What he wasn’t counting on was her insistence that Draco Malfoy be part of the plan.

The Unplottable Time Conundrum by @writcraft (E, 45k)

When the past starts bleeding into the present at Grimmauld Place, an old academic article pulls Draco Malfoy out of his life of luxury. Haunted by the memory of a fleeting post-war kiss and thrust into the ghostly spaces inhabited by Unspeakable Harry Potter, Draco’s easy life is about to get a whole lot more complicated.

Survival of the Species by @romaine2424 (E, 47k)

Draco approaches Harry on the 9 ¾ platform, after their sons have boarded the Hogwarts Express, and invites him over for tea. The discussion they have leads them on an adventure that neither could have expected. There be dragons! HPDH compliant but before any other canon info had been released.

What Shall Not Be Unearthed by @iero0 (E, 49k)

At the northernmost point of Shetland, surrounded by pointed cliffs, towers the Ootsta Lighthouse on a small isle in the middle of the open sea. Little does Harry know that he's not the only new lighthouse keeper. Draco Malfoy is as obnoxious as he always was, with his posh tone of voice and his luxury yacht jumpers. Harry tries his best to avoid the git—who knows what he's up to anyway?

Stately Homes of Wiltshire by waspabi (E, 58k)

Malfoy Manor has mould, dry rot and an infestation of unusually historical poltergeists. Harry Potter is on the case.

The Compact by astolat (E, 64k)

Hermione frowned. “The real question is why the magic of Britain would be failing now, in fact.” “That is not the real question!” Ron said loudly; he’d woken up fully by now, and Harry had too; it was starting to sink in that they’d found the problem. “The real question is, how do we fix it?”

Transfigurations by Resonant (E, 71k)

Five years after Voldemort's defeat, Harry returns to England to help re-open Hogwarts.

Timecode by Rasborealis (M, 73k)

Harry Potter has been dead for two years, and Draco would laugh in the face of anyone claiming differently. Well, anyone but Hermione Granger.

Among Ancient Pines by @graymatters (M, 74k)

Every day, Draco Malfoy tries. With every fiber of his being he tries. But he doesn’t much think about what he’s trying for. In his final term of Healer training, Draco is unfortunate enough to find himself on a plane, the only means of traveling to a small, magical town in rural Alaska

Azoth by @lol-zeitgeistic (E, 88k)

Now that Harry is back at Hogwarts with Hermione for eighth year, he realises that something’s missing from his life, and it either has to do with Ron, his boggart, Snape, or Malfoy. Furthermore, what, exactly, does it mean when one’s life is defined by the desire to simultaneously impress and annoy a portrait? Harry has no idea; he’s too busy trying not to be in love with Malfoy to care.

Shibboleths by @lol-zeitgeistic (E, 109k)

Muggle Immersion co-Professor Harry Potter spends his days hanging with his son, reading to his "dog," teaching magical kids about the internet with his cousin Dudley, and irritating Snape’s portrait. He’s understandably annoyed when his cosy life is interrupted by the Headmistress hiring on Draco Malfoy to be Hogwarts’ new Ancient Magical Cultures and Spellcasting professor.

All Our Secrets Laid Bare by firethesound (E, 149k)

Over the six years Draco Malfoy has been an Auror, four of his partners have turned up dead. Harry Potter is assigned as his newest partner to investigate just what is going on.

Oath Breaker by GoblinCatKC (T, 181k)

At the start of seventh year, the Malfoys perform a dramatic double-cross against the dark lord and Draco educates Harry in an old school of magic. With a wild dragon chase, narrow escapes and an unlikely romance as Draco is forced to reveal to a hostile wizarding world that the Malfoy family is dark.

In The Dark by @bixgirl1 (E, WIP)

In the aftermath of an apocalypse, Harry receives an order to find and bring Draco Malfoy nearly a thousand miles, to the tenuous safety of Hogwarts. But more than distance separates them from their goal. The world has fallen, and death is hungry.

au where an ancient briar valley general accidentally gets tangled up in the space-time continuum when he combines his unique magic with teleportation, and gets spit out into general vanrouge's era. i'm thinking this is before levan or revan or however the fuck u spell his name disappeared. i'm going to be pasting parts of my original conversation with my friend bow_to_the_king (he doesn't have a tumblr but check out his ao3! he depicts fae and lilia beautifully) below, and THEN i will be adding my spitballing additions below the cut.

me: doing stuff rn but this brain bunny entered my head. general vanrouge x time traveler except the time traveler is a past briar valley general who disappeared one day. and is as feral as lilia so ofc they initially hate each other

me: brainrotted more. they're an owl fae

me: he's an owl fae?

me: she?

me: whatever's an owl fae

me: thinking... blue hair. so it's the blue/red trope

me: ok vibes for what i have of them so far is def not a she so. gonna refer to this time traveler w he and they until i settle on whatever sticks more

me: thinking their um is usually just jumping forward in time a bit. like 5 minutes max. they use it in combat decent bit because hey what works works u know?

me: until one day he's like. super desperate. so he used his um while teleporting. which mixes..... Badly. he gets tangled up in the spacetime continuum and spit out to somewhere near a camp of lilia and his soldiers

me: it would be rlly funny if this was a time that predated the animal masks. so they don't recognize lilia as someone from briar valley and lilia doesn't recognize him as someone from briar valley, because he has a cloak and mouth veil thingy (only eyes and some hair r visible)

me: so its like a huge misunderstanding until SOMEBODY works it out. but lilia and this dude r still bitter from their first impressions. so they r constantly at each other's throats and arguing over choices and whatever

me: it's like. a power / pride thing

me: and then something something something, something something something! dadadadada blah blah blah

me: and then they kiss

(- i said something around here abt being a literary genius)

me: i just love red/blue who start off in hate ok

me: technically enemies to lovers i suppose, even though they're actually on the same side.

king: Get that duality

king: Emotion enemies to lovers

king: Two alley cats that hiss at each other but end up cuddling eventually

me: and it's extra funny because they are similar

king: Ooooo do a but where they say the same thing at the same time and then proceed to glare at each other the rest of the meeting while trying to out do the other

me: it's funny because this dude is like. actually famous. he's in briar valley history books like lilia is in the present day.

me: everyone else is like oh my god... i can't believe im in the lost general's presence.... he's such an icon... i've looked at so many accounts of his battles..... while lilia is just like

me: die

me: i do not give a fuck

me: fight me

king: They get home from deployment and Owl gets flowers and such thrown at him and has people constantly wanting to talk to him and Lilia’s just stewing in contempt (and secretly territorial about every one monopolizing Owl’s time)

me: he actually is lowkey bitter about it "oh going out to greet your adoring fans instead of training?" and owl is like. "IM SORRY??? WHAT." and then they brawl

king: Oh my god

king: They’re Malfoy and Harry

king: Rivals to lovers

me: well yes

me: but in their heads they r enemies

me: so both technically

king: That adoring fan bit is absolutely something Malfoy would say to Harry

king: In like canon

me: shit you're right

me: ah well drarry is a classic i cant complain

me: just realized im at a point i should probably name owl…

king: Seras is a cool name

king: Seras is technically a female name meaning princess, fiery, or bright

(i noted this down and told king i usually collect a handful of different names & surnames and mix and match them until i find The name)

me: seras, emil, and cyrus/kir r my first name options

me: tbh i don't actually like cyrus/kir as much as seras and emil but i need to keep my options open wait wait wait

me: emil seras

me: lilia calling him seras not as in using his last name to be respectful but as in calling him princess to mock him

king: The general is a menace like that

and then at some point mid-convo

me: also while u were gone i played a bit in picrew typing to capture general owl fae's vibes

(i sent king the ref pics i made. courtesy of this picrew and this tiefling picrew.) [insert links]

king: Ooooooo those wings look gooooood

OKAY NOW ONTO MY YAPPING AND SPITBALLING BELOW THE CUT

first of all the CLOAK. the cloak is actually a necessity. it's a type of padded armor made of thick pressed wool tightly pressed together. not only is it warm, but the way the fibers connect together and work is that it stops piercing blows from swords. it even could stop very early bullets! (not modern day). from what i can tell, this was generally worn over the rest of somebody's armor? it also wasn't exclusively armor. shepherds and whatnot also used it to keep warm, and shield themselves from wind. generally there shouldn't be a hood, but i really wanted the hood. a little feature that stuck w the armor and apparel of briar valley soldiers through the centuries (because general lilia has a hood but no cape/cloak)

it's originated in the caucasus mountains, and is called a nabadi or burka. it was generally made from sheep wool (according to wikipedia, karakul wool which is central asian in origin). it is also a style of clothing customary of males in the caucausus region at that time. at some point, around the 18th century, russia appropriated it and made it apart of their armor (which is why it is also called a burka). you can learn more about the nabadi and padded armor in general here.

something i like to do is put little aspects of myself or my heritage into my characters, which is what i did here lol. i'm half kurdish and according to my father we (as in my clan i think) originated from the caucasus mountains and descended down to where we lived in the middle east (obligatory rip kurdistan).

i thought this form of armor would be quite suitable for emil, because not only does briar valley seem to be a very mountainous region (and mountains are COLD. also from what i can tell briar valley seems to be located quite up north so. extra cold.) additionally, some of the briar valley names just feel a bit. russian. if u will. such as lilia, zigvolt (ignoring the fact they immigrated), vanrouge, etc. also russia and the caucasus region in general? in asia. close to the middle east. which is also mostly in asia. sebek coming from an egyptian god and baul sounding a lot like baal. ik real world geography has no bearing on the cultural influences of the countries in twst, and it's more generally mashing a mix of cultures together, but it makes sense in my head.

so the cloak? 100% an essential and totally canonical to the briar valley region. (i did not expect to brainrot so hard on this part oh my god.)

[dandelionflowery]

Intro post!

(breast cancer awareness post here/the legends of tumblr here, variations here and here , alt link for number 7/arch nemesis Cynthia here) [the two topics are wholly unrelated]

HII!!

My name on the internet is Dandelion, but you can call me whatever you like honestly. It's so hard to find a good name around here, the fae keep stealing them

I use any pronouns, online people default to they/them, IRL people default to she/her, you can use whatever you feel like!

I'm aroace 🧡💛🤍🩵💙 and my gender is up to interpretation lol

I'm 17 and I live in France but I have both French and American citizenship (so i do speak both french and english)

I'M A YEAR AWAY FROM BEING AN ADULT HELP

I have both scoliosis (diagnosed, 45°) and probably dyslexia (not officially diagnosed but all the internet tests I did were screaming at me to go get an official diagnosis- as has life lol) and those two really hate each other who deCIDED SCOLISOIS SHOULD BE SPELLED THE WAY IT IS (if i spell it correctly be aware that either I copied it from somewhere, or i thought about it for WAY too long, or it was a monkeys on keyboards thing)

I also probably have some form of undiagnosed neurodivergence, i think autism and some hints of adhd :)

I created a blog just for reblogging shit (aptly named @dandelionflowery-reblogs) but i suck at tagging stuff on most of my accounts 😭

I'm not often super active on here, at least not regularly, mostly because I have way too many classes but sometimes I go absolutely insane and spend like an entire day on here (oops)

actually i'm most active on here I think now lol

~~☆~~

I like:

- Harry Potter (Drarry, Deamus, Romione, Linny are my main ships but there's a decent chance you could get me to like a specific portrayal of just about any pairing lol) [also fuck jkr]

- The Marauders (WOLFSTARRR! Also Jily and aroace Peter and maybe Remadora. Same thing as before: open to other pairings [I know of and appreciate the ships with the girls but usually I'll lean towards the first ones mentioned actually I'll lean towards wolfstar with background Jily and aa battery Peter)

- Reading and books in general

- Fanfics, fanart!! (Both writing/drawing them and reading/simping for them)

Speaking of which, I have a side blog that's actually technically marauders themed! @mybrain-fanficedition

- Interactions on here!!

- there's probably some other stuff I like but I can't think of anything rn

~~☆~~

I don't like:

- Following from above, I said I was open to pretty much any pairing, ... I lied lol

Idk what jegulus did to me but i just don't like it for some reason (jegulily? lovely. jily? fantastic. jegulus? less.)

- Also the usual list of if you're pro-genocide, homophobic transphobic uh racist, pedophile or just a generally mean person

~~☆~~

I like talking to people even if you don't know what to say just say hi!

Also I have other social media, come find me if you want!

@/flowerydandelion, @/dandelionfloweryart and @/wands.swords.and.books on Instagram!

On Ao3 I'm like 90% sure it's DandelionFlowery and uh probably similar usernames on Discord and Reddit [though I'm not often active on there]

Wait if I link my ao3 that means i need to actually post my fics lol

Leave comments if you read my fics, I love feedback!! (or just leave kudos, it makes me irrationally happy lol)

~~*~~

tags about my current wips featuring really bad summaries:

#third time's the charm- Lily

(not going to be the actual title i think but first i have to write it, we'll worry about titles later)

Lily decides canon sucks and she's going to do something about it

woah i wasn't lying when i said really bad summaries

> Canon happens once, and Lily watches over her son from the afterlife. When canon gets to the scene in DH where Harry gets to see his parents again, something happens and Lily finds herself back in the past, reliving her life from Harry's birth on. She plans, dies and learns. The third time, she's ready.

#our broken hearts- an ode to wolfstar (this one is subject to change bc that title is way too sappy for me)

Sirius dated Peter. And Marlene. And Lily. And James. And then Remus?

>Originally this started in the tags of some post and i mentioned Sirius x Peter, and it blew out of proportion.

>Sirius spends many years finding out who he likes, and ends up with Remus after a lot of experimenting.

~~*~~

totally normal link trust me :)

if you still trust me (and why shouldn't you?), here's the ULTIMATE PRIDE FLAG lol)

let's see how trustworthy you think i am

wanna see some stuff i wrote? (warning, a friend said it took them half an hour to read just the main bit lmao)

an apology 1 | 2

hiii!

i read this on ao3 few months ago if im not mistaken. it's a compilation of one-shot drarry stories, like chapter one plot a, chapter 2 is plot b, and such. i think it only has less than 5 chapters. i can't exactly remember the title, but i know that one story includes draco being a (water?) fae who's an outcast due to his looks (you know that typical blonde bombshell with big tits and pouty lips) and no one wants to mate with him, he's hanging around in the pond when all of the sudden harry took him home and claimed him then time passed he became a bit accustomed with muggle life, but only staying home wearing skimpy clothes requested by harry.

another story in this compilation is that harry is a playboy, and him and draco had something in the past but draco left because he thought harry was just playing with him due to harry's reputation. they have a child together, and draco kept him a secret. but one day when draco woke up, he saw harry patting the back of their child, like making him sleep cause he woke up in the middle of the night. they talked then proceeded to make love.

i hope you can find this, thank you!

I've been on Tumblr since 2012 but this is the first time I have ever tried to be more active instead of keeping in the background .

Disclaimer

(Especially for those who are particularly focused on Harry Potter canon and/or certain dynamics.)

In my headcanons and posts, I will stretch canon pretty thinly. I will rewrite and redo huge chunks of what we know as the Harry Potter canon. This includes huge changes in the history, the timeline, and the ethnicities of a lot of characters (read: majority of the characters we know in my AU are now BIPOC). Everything I am doing is purely for my own enjoyment and I just wanted to share the things I made with anyone who wanted to have a read.

I do not follow any Marauders fandom headcanons nor do I consider myself part of the fandom . This means my Lilys and Jameses will have vastly different friend groups than what you're used to if you're from the Marauders fandom .

If you're particular about dynamics, I am a fixed DMHP account . I don't post NSFW on this blog since I focus on worldbuilding and more SFW character building, but I'm just throwing this out there :3

Have a good day ! (My AUs under the cut)

Current AUs

Nandhini's Legacy - my main AU and the reason why I made this blog in the first place ! This is a Harry Potter AU where the Potter family are South Indian (specifically Tamil [James] and Telugu [Lily]) and the Black family are SWANA . New elements in the story include entirely new fancasts for the entire cast, the introduction of a Magical British Museum (the new primary antagonist besides Lord Voldemort), OC siblings for characters like Harry and Pansy, and several timeline changes .

pls ask me abt this au i have so much to say

Son of Hecate Harry AU - a PJO x HP crossover AU where Harry was born to Lily and James but with the additional blood from Hecate . In this AU he was taken away from the Dursleys by a satyr and raised in Camp Half-Blood . By the time he arrives at Hogwarts, Harry has already undergone one quest and is only at the institution because of another prophecy (not Trelawney's) . He is accompanied by fellow demigods and witches Yurika Haneda (Slytherin, Hermes) and Poppy Caxton (Hufflepuff, Athena)

My Mortal Companion - the AU in which post-War, Harry retains his title as Master of Death and believes his next destiny is to be the sole Unspeakable in the Death Room since he's the "only one who could do it" . Features Harry's relationships and dynamics with various psychopomps and death deities of diverse pantheons

Related Links : Main Tag

Favourite of the Fae Harry AU - an AU where Harry is highly favoured by the Fair Folk of Great Britain, but only in the way a human might highly favour what they deem a particularly cute pet . Includes tidbits of Harry being his mother's son because Lily was their previous favourite, and Harry having difficulties with socialising in the "proper" human way because he was used to the constant transactional socialising of the Fae

Ask game words! Any of the following: glowed/glow/glowing, hands, glass

Delightful words, thank you! Here's glow, from The Book Manuscript, or rather, the first three chapters doc open on my desktop:

There, again, a movement. A deer bounding away from the house, one of the petite little Southern white-tailed deer. It stopped in the middle of the lawn just as the sun cleared the roof. A doe. Her pelt in the morning light glowed as if made from purest gold. Liquid-dark eyes met Helena’s, and she drank in the white hair over and under the deer’s eyes, her narrow head and puppyish muzzle, the grace of her raised ears. The doe turned and leapt back the way she had come.  No way. This was the middle of a city. There were not deer here.  The trail remained in the grass, a deeper green in the angled light. The house loomed. Nothing inhabited could be that solitary. She gripped the fence. Forget the paint chips and rust and thorn-snags; if she climbed over these iron spearpoints, she could go around behind the house, see where the deer had gone. 

Here's hands from the unedited novella about a mortal-fae mixed marriage that's up next:

“We just did it ourselves,” I said, responding to the first question and ignoring the rest. “Well, I mostly just painted the middle. Tel is a pretty dab hand with colors and detail work. Comes with the territory, I suppose.” “Oh?” She didn’t get it. “You must be very handy. Mark is more a management type, aren’t you, honey?” “Two left hands,” he said, and as he spread them I clocked his ring. They were abstainers. Shit, shit, shit. I tried to direct Tel’s gaze to the ring as if my eyes were tractor beams, but no one was looking at me. The kids burst into the room, their three and our—let’s see, looks like five today.  “They said they haven’t got names!” hollered Philomena. Nightingale indeed. 

And glass, or, um, glasses, from the Drarry one:

“Right. It’s stupid, really, I don’t know why I think I’m profound. Of course there’s more to know, that’s kind of the whole… right. Anyway I got to thinking about History of Magic and how I didn’t retain a single fact or idea from the entire course. The papers were reporting things I knew in ways that made it impossible to understand what was actually happening. Somebody told me that knobby journalism quote, you know, the news is the first draft of history or whatever. And I thought, if that’s the first draft we're in trouble, right?" He laughed, self-conscious. "The next thing I knew I was in grad school wearing anticolonialist t-shirts, getting kicked out of class for screaming at my professors . . . in general going through what people refer to as ‘it.’”   “That’s what you meant, isn’t it, with the people who don’t know history thing, earlier.” Draco could already picture Nerd Potter with his nerd glasses making every day a nightmare for his professors. It was a great deal like his Hogwarts memories, but this time on purpose.  “I meant that I need to get my shit under control because I already drew a wand on you once and it’s only the first week of term,” Potter said, voice harsh. 

[tenacious-minds]

I have finally realized my true Roman Empire, and it’s Draco saying ‘I will never regret getting any of them. […] and while their significance may eventually become less immediate, they will always have meaning to me.’ about his tattoos in A Piercing Comfort by talithan. I look at my tattoos every day, the one on the inner crook of my elbow that says TURN from a drarry fic written eleven years ago that I’ve read so many times I could almost quote it, among the flowers native to my province, and the ee cummings poems, and a bird I love for no reason at all, except that I think they’re silly, and a little bit fae, and a little bit like me, and I think— these will always have meaning. And idk, I just think that’s kind of beautiful.

[sitp-recs]

Hey, again love your recs! I'm completely in love with Drarry because of these lovely stories. Wondering, an recs with a rugged Harry/ Draco ( as in manual labour), and always sweet and smutty is always a win. I appreciate your time, thanks a bunch!

Thank you anon, I’m happy to hear that! Ohh very interesting ask, here are some E-rated fics for you. You might also enjoy this list with buff!Draco 🫡

Hot Metal by @bafflinghaze (E, 5k)

Harry Can’t Deal with the vision of Malfoy hot and sweaty at work in his blacksmithing forge. Meanwhile, Draco is entirely perplexed with Potter’s odd behaviour.

Heart to Hearth by @jtimu (E, 7k)

It should perhaps not have been a surprise that the repairman on his front step came not with coveralls and a toolbox but instead with a sardonic stare and a raised eyebrow. Harry stood in his open door and shut his mouth with an effort.

Wield Me by @tackytigerfic (E, 10k)

Draco Malfoy, blacksmith, is renowned through the magical world for his skill and exquisite creations. He could quite easily spend the rest of his days making pretty trinkets for the fae court, and being handsomely rewarded for the privilege. But why take the easy route when instead he could get involved in a dangerous mission with Unspeakable Harry Potter (who also happens to be Draco's... well, he's something, isn't he?).

Hippomancy for Beginners by khalulu (E, 11k)

When Draco desperately insists on becoming a Centaur Liaison, he doesn’t know what he’s getting into, especially with that annoying hero-turned-hermit Harry Potter living right at the entrance to the Forbidden Forest. Not to mention foreign unicorn women, slavering three headed beasts, bitter brews, unexpected friendships, and the consequences of a very cocky vocabulary.

Voices From The Fog by noeon (E, 13k)

After years of running away, Harry crosses paths with an all-too familiar face and follows him to Amsterdam.

One Floo Over the Lovegood’s Nest by Nattish (T, 14k)

Harry is not terribly surprised that there are magical plumbers, chimney sweeps, and pest control men. He is surprised that one of them is Draco Malfoy. And that he’s bloody hot in a jumpsuit.

Phoenix Repair Services by carpemermaid (E, 20k)

Draco hires a suspiciously private wizarding handyman to fix his kitchen when he returns home to find it destroyed. He expects a middle-aged wizard with greying hair and a pudgy gut to show up. Instead, he gets Harry Potter—with a utility belt and a charming smile—who is more attractive than he has any right to be.

Here Be Dragons by birdsofshore (E, 21k)

Harry doesn’t want to waste his time investigating illegal dragonhide trading, whether it involves a fetish club in Knockturn Alley or visiting a remote island in Wales. Why the bloody hell does Malfoy always have to be up to something?

Kept in Cages by @sweet-s0rr0w (E, 77k)

Deep in the heart of the Ministry lies the Beast Division: a hidden room where ancient beasts roam, and winged creatures soar, and grumpy giant ferrets eat all your biscuits unless you keep them well hidden. Draco Malfoy would know – he’s been working there for five years now, after all.

I Am Not Who I Became by mab_di (E, 93k)

Draco left England after the trials and has travelled the world meeting wizards and Muggles from different cultures and with vastly different relationships to magic, each other, and the natural world. Now he's a fisherman in Finland on commercial vessels. Harry has been struggling since the war and has become a recluse while trying to write his autobiography.

Part I: Storm

Stormy little cottagecore Drarry AU —

Where Harry moves into an old cabin in the middle of the woods and Draco is the fae of the forest and he’s curious about this messy haired human with oversized ill fitting clothes and why he keeps harvesting the saplings that Draco so lovingly plants around his forest and Harry finally invites the wet little fae into his cottage for a hot cuppa and it clicks for Draco that this weird shaggy man is in fact a wand maker and he’s been using Draco’s trees for wands. Chaos ensues.

CHAPTER FOUR

Author's Note: The long-awaited Chapter four is here!! I highly suggest rereading the first three chapters before moving on, which you can find below!

[CHAPTER ONE] [CHAPTER TWO] [CHAPTER THREE]

Harry was still reeling from Hermione- his Hermione, who had punched Draco Malfoy in school- now actually speaking to him and calling him by his first name. And Draco had allowed it? He was really only half paying attention to their banter back and forth- and really, Harry should know better by now, he should be paying attention- but being poked and prodded and dragged around while Draco Malfoy was here, avoiding his eyes and crossing the entire room to get away from him- it all just felt like too much.

“Now, tell me how you feel.” It took another moment for Harry to realize Hermione was now facing him and asking him this question. When had her focus shifted? Had she caught him hungrily eyeing up Draco like this might be the last time he sees him?

“How I feel,” Harry repeats, confused as to why she was asking. “I feel normal?” When Hermione’s reply was an angry huff and crossing her arms, he had to restrain himself from taking a few steps back.

“I can never get anything out of the two of you!” Hermione fumed, waving her wand in an arc and raising a glare to him. “Look, I’m not asking as a friend right now. I’m asking as an Unspeakable. How do you feel?”

“Why are you asking how I’m feeling? I feel completely normal.” Harry threw his arms out to the side, shrugging at her. She sighed, lifting her notebook and peering at her notes. He turned his attention instead to Draco, studying his rigid posture through the shimmering globe that surrounded Hermione and him.

“Let me be more specific. Do you feel any different when you’re around Draco? Did you feel any different in the elevator earlier? Even subtle changes, Harry. Tell me everything.”

Harry huffed, crossing his arms and glancing away, wracking his brain for what she might be asking. “I don’t know what you want me to say, Hermione. I mean, I feel like I always have around him.”

“And how is that?”

“Wha-,” Harry huffs, looking up to stare at Draco speaking with the fae, wishing he could hear what was being said. “I don’t know, like everyone else?” As if he could feel Harry’s eyes, Draco turned and raised a hand toward him. They locked eyes for a moment, both quickly averting their gaze.

“I need you to actually tell me.” At Hermione’s obvious displeasure, Harry squirmed where he stood, shrugging. The sight of Hermione withdrawing her wand from her sleeve had his raising his hands in defense.

“Okay! I- I guess,” He stalled for a moment, trying to find the right word to use, before settling on, “Aroused?” Harry could feel a blush forming, but at Hermione’s curt nod, he relaxed slightly, watching her write a few things in her notebook.

“Do you always feel aroused around him? At what level would you rate your arousal?”

“Geez, Hermione. I mean, I’m sure everyone does, right? The git is hot,” Harry mumbled, but continued when Hermione raised her eyebrows toward him, “Yeah, okay. I get slightly- uh, yeah, whenever I see him. I don’t see him very often anyway, I think I just get surprised. I forget how bloody attractive he is. And- I don’t know, a three? I don’t pop a huge boner or anything.”

“Do you feel any other way? Lightheaded? Clumsy?” She raised her eyes to meet his, continuing, “Obsessive?” Harry scoffed, crossing his arms.

“Did Ron talk to you?”

“Not yet,” Hermione mumbled, waving a hand and lowering the silencing barrier just in time to hear what sounded like a thunderstorm in the room. Both heads turned quickly toward the fae, their expression blank but vaguely threatening, and Draco, who seemed completely shocked, his expression vulnerable. Harry hadn’t seen his face like that since the trials, and he felt a churning in his stomach at the visual.

“Draco?” Hermione asked delicately, and they both watched as Draco did what all Malfoy’s do best- shuttered his emotions behind a thick wall and cleared his expression to reveal nothing. Harry hated that even more.

][][][][][][

The three of them stood now at Harry's cluttered desk, in the office he shared with his partner, the two others watching as Harry opened three different drawers before finally finding and pulling out a small black notepad. He pulled a pen from a cup on the far side of this desk, flipping open to a new page to jot some notes of what he remembered. The tinkling sound is almost constant now, and Harry wondered to himself whether Eden was actually talking constantly, non-stop, and what they were even saying if they were. Draco wasn't exactly taking his translator job completely seriously.

"So," Harry began, ignoring the faespeak that Draco felt no need to translate, "Their home is under attack, they've received death threats, and their home is located somewhere near Hogsmeade?" Harry rattled off the facts he knew so far while pacing the room, glancing to Draco to confirm. The other man nods slowly, sighing and leaning against Harry's desk now that he stepped away from it.

"Yes, and Eden- please. None of that is important right now. We're here to help you now. Any more information you can provide will help." Draco spoke directly to Eden, as if his first answer was in response to their own question and not Harry's. The tinkling, wind-chime sound had stopped, though, and with a glance at them Harry could tell they were worried. It was almost too quiet before Eden finally began to move, reaching a hand into their back pocket to pull out multiple crumpled parchments, dropping them onto the mess that is Harry's desk.

The tinkling began again as Harry approached, reaching for one of the crumpled notes and beginning to smooth it out. Harry began to wonder as he did, whether the sweet smell he just wandered into was attached to the paper, or perhaps lingering from the fae who dropped it off, before Draco pushed away from his desk and walked across the room from him. Of course Draco wouldn't willingly be near Harry, because that would only be helpful, wouldn't it?

"They began receiving death threats about six months ago, though they don't know what the cause of it had been," Draco finally translated, returning back to quiet as the wind-chimes began singing louder, harsher, and Harry knew that meant they were becoming angry. Harry finished smoothing one of the papers, noticing a sloppy handwriting and no significant names or places listed that could help.

"At first they ignored the note, thinking nothing of them." Harry twisted his wrist and caught his wand dropping from the holster in his hand, waving it over the parchment in hope to trace some kind of magical signature. "After one month, their plants began to die surrounding their burrow. Eden couldn't figure out why until they received the second note. Something about, 'move or more things will die,' which is when they realized their home was being sabotaged."

Finding no significant trace, or enough of it to track, Harry moved to begin smoothing out the rest of the papers, lining them up. They were all written in English, and with what limited information he could gather from his detection spell, written by a wix. As he quickly scanned all six pages, they had a glaringly obvious theme. 'Leave, or else.'

"The destruction of their property only got worse from there," And at this Harry lifted his notebook again, jotting down the first event before nodding at Draco to continue, "Their food began spoiling quickly, and after investigating they could-" Draco hesitated, tilting his head at the fae, "They could taste the residual magic in the air from a wix covering their home. That was the third month. Fourth, it was a shimmering night-aura that was placed over their home for two whole weeks before they had convinced a centaur to come and remove it." Harry nodded, remembered whenever he entered those globes and felt off-kilter. They were usually placed upon the homes of vampires to block out the sun, he couldn't imagine living in one for two whole weeks.

"The fifth month, and subsequent letter," Draco continued, Harry looking at his notepad while he continued to write notes, "A flaming bottle was lobbed at their house. It caught the dry and dead brush outside and spread to their western room, a covered and enclosed patio. It was one they apparently frequented, loving the natural light that flooded the room. Which was why Eden and two of their roommates were currently sitting in the room as the flames began engulfing one of the walls."

The wind-chimes had long since been turned to thunderstorms, crackling and pulsing with each word, and Harry waited patiently for what he assumed was the rest of the story. He finally glanced upward to Draco when the man spoke in a soft voice, almost like a whisper, "It sounds like the wix was just outside the property, using spells to make the fire bigger and stronger, spread quicker. Eden and their roommates were quick to fight the flames, but it had been too difficult and they lost the patio room before they finally quenched them."

Harry huffed, frustrated, shaking his head. "And why didn't they just come to us after the initial attacks? I get why they wouldn't with the first note, not everyone believes in death threats without action, but after their garden died? Or any other event-" Harry hesitated, running a frustrated hand through his hair before the thunderstorms rolled again, and he looked to Eden to see them glaringly directly at Harry during their tirade. Harry decidedly did not look away, almost afraid of what would happen while the fae seemed this upset.

"They have a point, Potter," Draco mumbled, and Harry finally broke eye contact with Eden once they've quieted down, looking to Draco's side profile, the man still refusing to look at him. "The Fae have never had good relations with the Wix. Eden, nor any of their friends, fully believed that we would help them. Not when the one that's attacking their home is a wix themself."

"So why come forward now?" Harry directed this question to Eden, who just crossed their arms and continued their glare at Harry, mumbled a short reply.

"Because of what happened this month." Draco waved a hand toward Eden to continue, their voice now quieted down to what almost sounded like whispers of rain. Harry turned toward the threats again, rearranging them in order from the sequence of events, his eyes finally catching on what could only be the most recent threat.

"Their roommate had been attacked in their front yard on the way home from work." Draco's voice sounded grave, and matched what Harry felt as he read the last note.

It won't be a simple graze on the leg next time…

"Their roommate, named Bran, was the recipient of what sounds like a rather harsh hex, leaving a gaping wound on his thigh that they only just managed to stabilize before apparating to St Mungo's, figuring a wizard doctor may know how to heal a wizard hex more efficiently."

Harry nodded, agreeing, before looking up and locking eyes with Eden. "I don't know who did this, or why, but I can assure you, Eden, that we will get to the bottom of this. And the wix or wixen that decided that this was appropriate behaviour, regardless of race, will be taken in, punished, and made sure that they could never do something so foul again."

Eden was finally quiet, opening their mouth briefly as if to speak, though with no sound coming out. They eventually closed their mouth again, crossing their arms as if to hug themself, and Harry watched tears begin to fill their eyes.

"Look, I-" Harry hesitated, huffing a strained sigh and running his hand through his hair once more, "I understand the reluctance to trust the aurors. Wix and Fae don't have the best relationship, as you've pointed out. And honestly, I'm sure there are plenty of aurors here who could benefit from taking an empathy class or two," Harry finally straightened himself, meeting Eden's gaze with his own earnest one, "But you are a person, Eden. And no one deserves to be treated like this."

Eden has no response once again, aside from lifting one hand to cover their mouth. They stood in the center of the room for what felt like a full minute before finally willing their legs, moving to a far corner away from the two wizards. Harry figured they needed to compose themself once again, and let them be. Instead, he leans against his own desk, looking directly at- and watching- Draco. The man is fidgeting, which causes a head tilt from Harry. Usually he seems so composed, but to fidget now? Was he worried for Eden?

A loud bark of laughter startled the three occupants, all glancing to notice the man now standing in the doorway to their office. Of course it's Ronald Weasley, his partner who he shared this office with. He was glancing between Harry and Draco as if seeing something everyone else missed, before shaking his head and approaching Harry.

"Of course, what did I tell you?"

"Look, it isn't my fault-" Harry began, straightening and throwing a worried glance to Draco before glaring back to Ron. "Just drop it okay, Hermione-"

"Yeah, I know it all. Hermione told me everything right after questioning me for thirty minutes about what we spoke of down in the cafeteria." Harry felt his face heat up, narrowing his eyes slightly at Ron in warning. The man only laughed again in response, crossing his arms. "It's funny. How everything is happening exactly as I said."

"Not- not exactly how you said…" Harry mumbled, turning to face the evidence on his desk, while holding the black notepad out to Ron. "We have a case."

"So I've heard."

"I'm sorry, is there something you're not telling me?" Harry jumped slightly at Draco's voice, turning around and finally- finally!- meeting his eyes. Harry had to swallow, tamp down the sudden feelings forcing their way into his chest, to be able to answer.

"What do you mean?"

"Why would Hermione have to question him? What did you speak of down in the cafeteria?"

"Official auror business, Malfoy," Ron replied quickly, and must more easily than Harry could've, earning him a grateful glance. "Nothing you need to worry about."

"I am officially assigned to this case, I have a right to know all details-"

"What we're speaking about isn't related to this case," Ron replied harshly, finally turning and shooting a glare at Draco. Wind chimes suddenly fluttered once again as Eden approached Draco, standing to his side with their arms crossed. This seemed to catch Ron off guard, which caused a small smirk to cross Draco's face.

"Eden expresses a displeasure with the way you are speaking to me, Weasley."

"Well Eden will have to get used to it, I ain't changing my vernacular just because another person is present. You're still you, Malfoy."

"Ron," Harry warned, glaring once again at his friend, though for another reason. Ron turned and met his gaze, a solid rock of determination against his own steel gaze.

"I don't care how long it's been, I still don't like him if he's gonna act like a pretentious prat." Ron fought, crossing his arms. Harry narrowed his eyes further.

"You did start it," Harry spat out, which caused Ron to heave a large sigh. The man finally dropped it, turning his back toward Draco and raising the notepad to catch up on the case. Harry threw a now apologetic look toward Draco, who seemed equal parts confused and curious.

"Alright, my initial inclination here would be to visit Bran in the hospital, get some info from him," Harry began, turning to look at Eden as he spoke. Eden began a reply, and after they finished Draco finally answered.

"That will be acceptable, so long as Bran is awake. They had just dropped him off before making their way here. Their roommate, Yasha, should be with Bran in the hospital. She would be able to tell us if he's allowed visitors yet."

"Sounds good. If we can't question him just yet, then we can head straight to your house. I need to see the location, and then we can begin investigating Hogsmeade." Harry glances toward Ron, who nods subtly. They both could probably guess already why this was happening to them. With the recent movements and laws to have other magical beings retain human rights, there has been a lot of backlash from purists. It was most likely that some pureblood wix didn't approve of a magical being living so close to a wizarding community. 

][][][][][][

They all sat in a St Mungo's waiting room, Ron holding a cup of the worst coffee and steadily sipping it. Eden and Yasha were speaking in the corner, a chorus of wind chimes, with various pitches, playing as if it's a windy day in the countryside. Draco sat across the room, opposite of Harry, staring down at his hands and making no move to converse with either group. Harry only realized he was staring at him when Ron nudged his arm, causing him to jump.

"You know this is gonna be a quick case, right?" Ron spoke with an undercurrent of suggestiveness, motioning toward Draco with his eyes. "You won't have too much time-"

"Yeah, Ron, I get it," Harry replied quickly and quietly, lowering his gaze to the floor before, once again, raising his eyes toward Draco. He sat there another minute before he heard Ron scoff next to him and a hand on his back push him. He luckily caught his footing before he made a fool of himself, spinning around to send a glare at Ron before approaching Draco slowly. He didn't raise his head, or otherwise acknowledge Harry, so he sat in the chair beside the blond man.

"So," Harry began, huffing a laugh and running his hand through his hair. Draco remained staring at his hands in his lap, so Harry continued, "What have you been up to after eighth year?"

This seemed to startle Draco, causing the man to turn and meet his eyes. "After eighth year?"

"Yeah, that's the last time I really spoke with you. I mean, I know we see each other sometimes in the atrium or elevators but-" Harry hesitated, unable to look away from Draco's grey eyes. They were beautiful, and seemed almost like they were glowing slightly, their colours waving and swirling. "I mean- Uh-" Harry blinks a few times, trying to get his words straight before continuing, "I liked speaking to you in school. We never really got a chance after."

Draco watched him, seemingly processing his words before continuing. "I went to a muggle college." Harry couldn't help his half smile, or the slight tilt to his head. This was interesting… "My major had been in muggle psychology, but I minored in muggle history. I felt they were the best ways to understand them. It was weird- realizing they're just people. Just like us." Harry let out a shaky breath, not realizing just how close he was leaning toward Draco. The blond's own voice was lowering slightly, in pitch and volume, and they both only seemed to notice each other.

That was, until Ron shook Harry's shoulder, causing the man to quickly jump back and look up to his friend, then to the doctor who was now in the room. "Healer says that Bran can receive visitors now. We have some questioning to do." Harry just nods in response, standing and smoothing his robes as an excuse to take a deep breath and compose himself.

They realized quickly that Eden and Yasha had already left the room, hurrying to catch up. Entering the room, the three fae turn to look at the wix, Bran looking less-than-enthused. His voice was deeper than the other two's as he spoke, sounding almost like drums, but as Draco quickly pushed into the room, he translated what he could hear.

"Bran doesn't want to speak with us." The three fae seem to talk all at the same time, Ron and Harry glancing at each other wearily. "Eden and their friend are trying to convince him," Draco whispered, trying not to catch their attention as the fae argued. Harry turned and met Draco's eyes, wondering why they weren't shining as much as they had been just moments ago before what sounded like thunder cracked throughout the room. All three pairs of eyes focus on the fae, Eden with their arms crossed and a hard expression on their face.

"Bran is ready to talk."

"I bet he is," Ron mumbled, withdrawing his own notepad and taking the lead. "Did you see the being that attacked you?" Drum sounds followed, Draco stepping next to Ron and translating afterward.

"You mean the wix?"

"Do you have reason to believe it was a wix?"

"The-" Draco hesitated, clearing his throat before continuing, "The hex that hurt him was cast by a wix. He is certain, as is the doctor if you ask them." Harry had to hold back a laugh, completely sure that Draco was cleaning up the language a bit.

"Alright- but that doesn't answer my question. Did you see the wix that cast the hex?" It was quiet after this, Harry watching a series of emotions playing across Bran's face before he finally sighed, speaking again.

"No, he nor any of their roommates managed to get a look at who had been threatening and attacking them." Ron nodded, jotting a few notes down. 

The questioning continued, Harry beginning a small pace around the room, studying the flowers in vases, lack of cards, and curtains drawn completely away from the window to allow in as much sunshine as possible. He studied the two unhurt fae out of the corner of his eye, noting the deep concern radiating from Yasha, and the bitter resentment from Eden.

"Alright, well that's all the questions I have then," Ron finishes, flipping his notebook closed. "Next stop is your home. We'll take a look around there first, and continue our investigation after. Eden, if you could show us?" Eden nodded, taking a step forward. Yasha sat in a chair by Bran, content to wait here with him.

The walk was quiet, as Harry, Ron, and Draco followed Eden to the outside of the hospital, in the approved disapparating area. Eden held their hands out, Draco grabbing one and Ron taking the other. Harry took one hand from each, and felt a pull tug just under his belly button. 

There was spinning, and falling, and a jolt before they landed in what looked like the dead yard of an abandoned building. Not a mansion by any means, but large enough to house a large family. One side of the building was charred black, scars of flames that once licked up the side of the building present and overbearing, clouding the light grey and yellow theme of the panels. Ron takes his hands back and nods, withdrawing his notebook.

"Alright, now we search."
