#i got an ask!

[mollymarymarie]

I got this from my friend for my birthday; she binded it by herself and I'm so thankful, i can't even express what I'm feeling at the moment. I had to show you.

Dear your holiness is my favorite fanfiction of all time (comfort fic); i reread it every few months and this means so much to me.

I must say, I cried when she gave it to me.

🎀

Oh my God it's beautiful, I would've cried too 😭😭

You are amazing, your friend is amazing, and I hope you had the most wonderful birthday ❤️❤️

[wolfjackle-creates]

Decided to reread the Batman and Superman get possessed fic because I enjoy it so much. Listening to the Dr's. Fenton get chewed out by the Justice League is so sweet. I can only imagine what's happening down in the lab that resulted in such a commotion. Please tell me it's not another ghost (please tell me it IS a ghost who popped through the portal with perfect comedic timing just as the Fentons were explaining how very secure the portal is being kept.) Poor Flash is going to tear his hair out with how unsafe this whole house I'd. He will personally adopt these kids to get them away from this deathrap of a 'lab' put those papers away Bruce! He will fight you on this!

So you sent this in and I saw it when I was at work and couldn't reply. Then, when I got home, I totally forgot to reply. Story of my life, I need to remember not to open notifications while at work. (This is a life lesson I will absolutely forget within a day.)

ANYWAY, your question.

It's not another ghost in the basement, I'm afraid! It's just a lab that looks like this:

(Screenshots from Million Dollar Ghost.)

And yes, a custody fight is so about to go down!

[stonefreeak]

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

First of all, I am WILD over your chancellor Kenobi fic. INSANE about it

Second, is it abandoned? I would like to mourn now instead of suffering hope.

Third, please, please, please, if it isn't abandoned, consider adding a scene where Obi Wan yells at Anakin? And I really mean he goes all out, makes him think about himself, and Anakin comes back to apologise because he's ashamed of his behaviour? This Obi Wan is so kind and gentle with Anakin and in return he gets accused of manipulating an investigation and shirking duty for a grudge? Reading that argument scene between them pissed me off so damn bad, because how are you talking about trust and Obi Wan should trust Palpatine because Anakin does and Palpatine is good and honest and trustworthy and reliable, how can someone be so lacking in self awareness as not to realise that the corollary is that Obi Wan is bad and dishonest and untrustworthy and unreliable, so much so that he would accuse an innocent man of corruption over a years old grudge? And he's talking about trust? A fic has never had me so heated in my life, I would've been calling Anakin all kinds of b@st@rd in Obi Wan's place. He's being so soft with Anakin and I don't like that 😭😭😭

Hi Anon!

First, I'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying the fic!

Second, not to worry the fic is not abandoned, not at all, I'm just currently undergoing some health issues.

[ineffectualdemon]

Pls share some scumplane fics i need them for research purposes

Anything by Ehann on AO3 is excellent but I really like these:

Two Part Harmony this is the first in a series and really enjoyable to see how their relationship progresses

Scum Villian's Second Chance interesting take. Shen Jiu is a little OOC here but you are given an explanation for that and it's really good fun. Also part of a series though only the first fic focuses on Scumplane

And

Matchmakers this is one of my favourites as it's when they are disciples and their relationship develops very naturally

Other works I've enjoyed are:

How to be a dad: Guide by Shang Qinghua author Skylamoonlight -unfinished but cute and worth reading

Tomorrow's problems author Marquisguyun I am a sucker for time manipulation and this is a very nice little story

When The Heart Would Cease Ours Never New Peace author Pachinko_Lessons_101 this one is inspired by Matchmaker's up above but it's its own take and I enjoyed them both very much

The Window to the Soul (and other such fallacies) author BreadAndBlankets @breadandblankets very enjoyable sweet story. It's unfinished at the moment but I do highly recommend it

I could only find the Tumblr for bread and blankets but if anyone knows the others please let me know and I'll tag them

[getawayfox]

How you physically like to imagine Draco and Harry? Like, Harry grow muscular or stays on the skinny side, with or without beard, Draco with long or short hair? Im always torn...I only know that Draco needs to be tall and lanky for his short king :D

Hi Anon,

What a great question, thank you! When reading fic, I’m more than happy for the author to take me wherever they like with the physical descriptions. In my head Drarry are vague enough that I can enjoy them no matter what they look like in the fic and I love the variety of it all.

That being said, let me mention some interpretations in artworks that stole my breath away:

@fairysilk has this STUNNING study of Harry, that might be my favourite thing in the world. I know I said I don’t have a preference but if I had to pick, this is Harry.

You mentioned bearded Harry and YES. @blvnk-art ‘s Harry of course, so so so perfect. As an aside, Bianca also draws my favorite Wolfstar.

Can we also talk about my personal weakness: dad bod Harry? Just look at him, this perfection is of course by @bluebutter-art . I will never be over it.

Speaking of weaknesses - I melt when one (or both!) of them them have tattoos and/or piercings. Nobody will ever be as cool as Draco by @kryptidfox

This art by @ladypeacefulspeonies is absolutely perfect Draco, look at his hair!

Oh! And since you mentioned long haired Draco - @babooshkart absolutely nails it. Plus the intimacy of the piece is just!

Also, how about long haired Harry by @zigster-ao3 ? This art makes me weep, I’m not joking.

And while we’re at it: both?both! by @itsphantasmagoria

Let me end this already long list with this hot hot hot Draco by @alienescence (it’s the confidence, isn’t it!)

I’d love to see everyone’s favourite interpretations too if people want to share👀

[cyb3rangel1]

If your fingernails got turned into bags of tea would you invite 10 British people to your house and make a cup of tea for each of them at the same time in a spectacular tea-making performance or would you go to the doctor to ask for help?

LMAO

i would go to the doctor cause if 10 british people were in my house i would fly into a bloodthirsty rage. they would never find all of the pieces when i'll be done with them

[iheart2manyfandoms]

You rock :) also yay for Wolvie to be on there with Deadpool! :)

[nuri148]

Hi, can I ask something? What do you think are Levi and Mikasa's greatest personality strengths and weaknesses? Why? What do you love about their dynamic? Since when that you start shipping them? What is your fav (canon) rivamika moments? Sorry if you've answered these questions before.....

P.s

Thanks for sharing your fics and for this blog of yours. Also, thanks to you, I start shipping Rivamika. See, I love Mikasa so much but I really dislike Eremika and can not understand that ship at all (don't mean anything negative to Eremika shippers). I'm okay with Armin/Mikasa & Jean/Mikasa, but I don't love those ships that much. Until I found your blog, read your fics and fall in love with Rivamika! Sorry for my rambling....

First things first, I’m so so sorry for taking so so long to reply!!! 🥺I’ve been quite busy lately irl and your ask calls for a proper answer. I think Levi is the least judgeamental character in AoT. This is in a virtuous circle with his kindness and selflessness, where those three qualities feed each other back . He’s kind and He’s a good judge of character, he’s practical, obviously he’s strong, both physically and spiritually. His resilience is extraordinary, after all he’s been through, he has not succumbed to rage, revenge, envy… Eren went through a smidgen of a fraction of what Levidis, and he decimated mankind for it. If Levi’s virtues are a bit hidden behind his gruff exterior, his weaknesses are there for all to see (is this a fault in itself?). He can be rude, he expreses anger and frustration in a violent manner—which is a result of his upbringing, granted, but still makes him look unapproachable. This can be good when facing your enemies as a soldier, but can isolate him from meaningful human connections too. I’m veering on hc terrain here, but for all his empathy he also strikes me as someone who’d be much less compassive/forgiving when it’s about “first world problems”. Annie killed his squad? No hard feelings, child soldier, all that jazz; you berate the waiter because he messed up your order? You’re dead to him. I’ve mentioned this before somewhere, but we have an idiom in my country for people who, like Levi, are not cut for polite social events, and its to be “coarse as a plough”, which is funny bc Ackerman means ploughman.

Mikasa is also strong af, and she pairs that with a calm demeanor… unless her loved ones are threatened ofc. In fact, I think Mikasa’s weaknesses are mostly her virtues going overboard: she has a fierce protective instinct, which is good up to a point but it becomes a problem  when she lets that override her judgement, like in the female titan arc. She’s determined, but that turns into stubborness. She’s loyal, but that loyalty turned into paralysis in the case of Eren; not only when it came to having to stop him, but also regarding her crush on him, which she probably wasn’t fully conscious of, hence her surprise and awkwardness when he asked her “what am I to you”.

I’m not sure at what point I started shipping rm; I do remember fretting when he was revealed to be an Ackerman, for fear that they could turn to be family, because I was already rooting for them. I guess I was initially attracted to the idea of the power couple, being the two most badass characters in the series. But I also like how she blooms under his guidance. He could have easily dismissed or bashed her for her protectiveness of Eren, but he teaches her to curb that zeal and keep it as a goal, not a trigger; he lends her his trust and allows her to become his right hand in battle. She in turn, despite her initial enmity towards him because of his display in Eren’s trial, is able to recognize Levi’s kindness and appreciate his leadership. He treats her not like a weapon, not like a silly girl, but like a full human being. Perhaps Mikasa is the one who most shows her fear of losing her loved ones, and that’s certainly something Levi knows about. Neither of them have time or energy for BS. It’s canon Mikasa wishes for a peaceful life like the one she had with her parents, and Levi to me exudes huge “I’m too old for this shit” energy (like jjk Nanami, another husbando) so I can picture them spending their afternoons in domestic bliss, fixing things around the house, tending to the garden, rather than going to town. He can give her reassurance and She could provide him with the family life he never had.

They’re both hot af, too. 😆 Imagine that Ackerpower in the bedroom...

In the end though, like in real life, it doesn’t matter much why you like it… You just do, and it makes you happy, and it hurts no one, so it’s fine!

Awww idk if being thankful or sorry that you started shipping rm because of me! 😅 Our ship is one of the most misunderstood of the fandom, and from time to time we get hate from antis, eruris and/or eremikas. But because of who they are, what they’ve been through and what they want, I think they make for beautiful fics where their relationship helps them fix themselves, rather than fixing each other. This is something that often comes up in the rm discord, how our fave fics are usually post-canon and about building a healthy relationship based on respect, rather than all the drama and toxicity of classic romance lit. (ofc we also enjoy a good old pwp… though you’ll still find a lot of established-relationship porn and porn-with-feelings fics.)

Thank you so much for your ask, and sorry again for the delay!

Hey there! I'm new to the Fandom, and I love love love your blog and all that you share about TIG/Terry Silver. I couldn't help but ask..

What are your thoughts on kk3!terry falling for a beloved that's from Vietnam?

I noticed that you haven't done these types of asks, so I wanted to know your thoughts on it!

You don't have to reply to this, but thank you so much for all that you do!

xoxo

Hi there, anon! Welcome to the Fandom <3

Thank you for your kind words!

I haven't really answered an ask like this, but I'll share my thoughts on it. You're always welcome to send me an ask!

If you're looking for similar content, then @terrence-silver is your blog! They have the best chatacter analysis of Terry and some of TIGs' other characters, too!

And if you're looking for a reader/oc insert stories/one shots for Terry or other TIG characters, then I certainly recommend these awesome blogs for you! @karatekels @virgo-mess @eemcintyre @thedeadsingforme @larussos-left-sock

°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°•°♡°

- Terry had come a long way from the person he once was during his Vietnam days. He's no longer the skinny, doe-eyed, somewhat innocent kid who came from a rich family all to prove to his father(and himself) that he is a man.

- He had an empire of his own now, dynatix industries, a nuclear waste disposal company that had been handed down to him by his father. He's done plenty of shady things, getting on the cover of the latest magazine and news papers was a regular thing for him. His physique was envied by men who were associated with him even. Perfectly sculpted face and an equally perfect charm to go with it.

- He had a playboy reputation with more money than most in the upper crust society. He's manipulative and will use any tactic he sees fit if needed. Everyone else is below him and he always had a good time toying with people. He's had his time with girls of every race, age , color, you name it. When Terry Silver wants something, he will definitely get it. So when he sets his sites on his beloved for the first time, he isn't bewildered immediately until he finds out more about them.

- If anything he sees them as the enemy at first, a stigma that's been around since the time he's been to Vietnam. He never forgot what happened there. Waking up in cold sweat after seeing his friend killed right infront of him, the bomb blasts and torture they all had gone through. A parting gift of the war.

- his beloved has certainly perked his interests though, whether they're apart of his upper crust society or simply a nobody there's definitely something about them that he can't seem to look past them. Maybe it's their features that is embedded in his head after he first saw them.

- Or it could be their characteristics or personality that's different from every woman he's ever been with. Maybe it's the way they walk, the way they talk, heck maybe it's the way they breathe. Terry will notice everything.

- Terry finds himself looking for beloved all the more. No amount of coke or bedding woman who even looks like them does the trick. He finds himself needing to find out everything about his beloved. He'd immediately thought of hiring an entire team of private investigators to find out every little thing about them. He wants to know their history, who is responsible for bringing his newly formed 'problem' into this world.

- He eventually sets on doing the job by himself. Stalking them, breaking in and entering into their home whilst they're in a deep sleep. He by hearted they're daily routine, he knows when they're in a deep sleep during the late hours of the night. He knows what they eat, what they wear, what hobbies they have, all down to what brand of shampoo they use. He utilizes anything that will help him understand what they are all about.

- He'd sometimes leave something behind in they're home, a dingy apartment unworthy of beloved in his eyes regardless of how well maintainedit is or not. Maybe a hundred dollar bill or even his own semen on their pillows after jerking off on their bed. He'd take something for himself too. Maybe a pair or two of beloved underwear suddenly goes missing.

- After everything he's come to know of beloved with them being none the wiser, he curates a persona of himself that fits all of beloved needs and wants ultimately becoming their dream man before he comes face to face with them again.

- Terry entraps beloved in his web afterwards. He makes sure they're smitten with him and never suspects a thing, giving them everything he knows they want from a partner gaining their trust over a short span of time. Once he's got them where he wants them he would reveal his true self. Ultimately hurting beloved so deeply because they are in fact the enemy. There's a price you have to pay for taking up so much of his time and consuming his mind.

- He thinks he's finally gotten what he wanted after breaking beloved completely but he still isn't able to move past them. It finally dawns upon him that he is in fact in love with beloved and no matter what he tells himself he cannot find anyone to replace them, no amount of coke or people who look like them.

- Terry sets about getting them back this time as himself. No matter where beloved goes he will find them. He will kidnap them if need be in the occasion of them denying everything he's offering them. He will help them see reason in time. He will go to any lengths to make sure beloved remains at his side.

- Stockholm syndrome will be in full swing. He erases the identity beloved once had as no one has the right to so much as know what beloved looks like without his permission. He'd estrange beloved from they're friends and family making them see how he's the only one they need.

- Preparations for the wedding will be in full swing. The wedding of the century. Everyone will know and will be ultimately shocked that playboy Terrence Silver has settled down. The entire world would know months in advance yet they would never see the actual ceremony regardless of the royal standard preparations that's been made. Terry's beloved is for his eyes only.

- The media only gets a single glimpse of beloved and they're rarely seen afterwards. Only when Terry deems it fit at some gala or event. Rest assured, no other woman ever crosses his mind again. He's fully consumed by beloved without them knowing the power they truly have on him. He'd go to any lengths to sure them his devotion too.

- beloved is the only one he'd trust with the truly gruesome parts of his life, through the Vietnam flashbacks where he'd sometimes need to hold them tightly the entire night or sometimes just their presence in the room at a distance. They've seen it all with him including the way he's beloved friend John Kreese had left him when things went down south. Beloved is the only thing that helps keep him grounded.

- Terry eventually starts a legacy of his own with beloved making sure that everything goes as he planned. Nothing is too much or unnecessary for his Silver empire.

Decades later he looks at himself in the bathroom mirror, thinking of how everything had suddenly took a turn in his life that one fateful day he'd set his eyes on beloved. His reflection stares back at him and next to it, ponytail stands with a smile on his face. His long lost war buddy whose personality and traits he's personally taken over as a tribute to his friend.

"You've chosen well twig." , ponytail says and vanishes in the next second leaving Terry smiling faintly at the thought. Letting his now silver colored hair down from its confines, he goes into his bedroom joining his beloved in bed.

Ahh, I hope I've done this ask justice!

Thank you for sending it in anon!

Much love🤍

[mollymarymarie]

i don’t have an ao3 account but your recent jjk fic is so stunning and beautiful. the longing and desire that just bleeds throughout the fic because of suguru’s inability to touch another human being. it’s such a cool and creative concept. you can explore so much with that. and you did! you did. thank you for sharing, i’m very excited for the end

OMG thanks friend!! I'm so glad you like it! 😍😍

[m00neroni]

honestly remus and lily being pregnant together is one my favourite headcannons, in my head the first time remus got pregnant he had twins and lily also got pregnant around the same time with harry so it's basically a friend group of three people who have been besties since the day they were born lmaoo, also lily and remus knitting sweaters for their babies while commiserating about morning sickness and mood swings,,,,,,,,, yes

Oh I love Remus pregnant with twins, he'd love-hate every second of it (he is currently going through it in one of my fics, poor darling). And pleeeeease I love that idea, their little merged queer-notsoplatonic family is so so special to me.

I imagine Sirius and James looking at them while they gossip and plan their end while baking with terrified expressions hahaha

Also, a little side note and rec, if you like Remus and Lily being pregnant at the same time I really really REALLY recommend Closer to Fine by the great @severedreamerfox. I think you'd like it!

Should be able to draw more,got laid off lol.

What does the TFP autobots and TFA autobots reaction on each other?

Thank you for the Ask! This is going to be a long post so enjoy reading! (For the Tfa Team I'm not going to put their reactions to all the Tfp Autobots just a select few since there are so many of them)

TFP Optimus: Optimus is first thought of Tfa Optimus is that he is very young and inexperienced but when he sees Tfa Optimus spar with his team he realizes that Tfa Prime is more than capable to lead his team to any victory he sets his mind to, But he notices that Tfa prime has a lot of self doubt and self worth issues, Tfp prime is determined to help him. When Optimus sees Tfa Bumblebee he is reminded of how Tfp Bee used to be, he's glad that the Tfa war didn't make Tfa Bumblebee lose himself. He sees a survivor in Tfa Ratchet and would be more then willing to hear him talk about how the first Tfa War was. Tfp Prime likes Prowls calming presence and enjoys listening to him talk about earth's nature. Tfa Bulkhead impresses him with his knowledge on space bridges and his artistic side.

TFP Ratchet: Ratchet doesn't like hanging around Tfa prime for to long because he reminds him to much of Orion Pax, not that he'll ever tell Tfa Prime that. Whenever he hears Tfa Bumblebee speak he is reminded of his supposed failure to help Tfp Bumblebee but he'll let the young adult talk his audio sensors off anyways. Tfa Bulkhead is his favorite because he doesn't hide any injuries. Ratchet tends to Hang around Prowl whenever he need quietness. Him and Tfa Ratchet do not get along well they clash heads to often for many reasons. one of which is the fueling situation ( if you know, you know)

TFP Bulkhead: He doesn't know how to handle knowing that Tfa Optimus is younger then him and how vulnerable he can be. Bulkhead is very surprised at how talkative Tfa Bumblebee is and he would get annoyed if it wasn't for the fact that he's just glad this Bee still has his voice. He is a little jealous of Tfa Bulkhead being smarter than him but thinks his art is awesome. Tfa Prowl makes him a little uncomfortable due to his quiet nature so he doesn't know how to act around him. Bulkhead sees Tfa Ratchet as a grumpier version of Tfp Ratchet.

TFP Bumblebee: Bee thinks it's a little jarring to see Tfa Optimus act the way he does because he's used to Tfp Prime acting more like a mentor than a big brother/ father figure. Tfp Bumblebee finds that as talkative as he used to be Tfa Bumblebee is far more talkative but he likes that about him. He likes Bulkheads artistic side and enjoys watching him and Tfa Bumblebee interact. He enjoys being able to talk with Prowl as he is unbothered by how Bee speak ( he doesn't ask questions). Bumblebee likes that Tfa Ratchet takes slag from no one.

TFP Arcee: Arcee doesn't understand how Tfa Optimus can be so calm about what was done to him for something that wasn't his fault. She thinks he should be angry but he's not. Tfa Bumblebee annoys her very much due to his need to make jokes but she does her best to tolerate it. (she does well most of the time) She's surprised to see Tfa Bulkhead being conscious about his accidental destructiveness and is impressed that he expresses himself through art. When Arcee learns what Alt mode Prowl has she challenges him to a race but neither of them will admit to who the winner was. She doesn't understand why Tfa Ratchet avoids her and when she confronts him she respects his need for space after learning why.

TFP Smokescreen: He challenges Tfa Optimus to a spar only to get his aft kicked, Smokescreen is determined to win against him one day. Smokescreen and Bumblebee get along well... a little to well they're pranking everyone. He likes to paint with Bulkhead even if he can't do it well he tries. He likes to chat with Prowl every once in a while and when he learns that Prowl is a cyber-ninja he asks him to teach him some moves. Smokescreen finds out why the Tfa team respects Tfa Ratchet the hard way.

TFA Optimus: Tfa Optimus is shocked that Tfp Optimus is the entire Autobots leader he has no idea how Tfp Prime Handles it all. He finds Tfp Ratchet to be a stubborn person that seemingly only tolerates him and his team. Tfp Smokescreen reminds Tfa Prime of his younger self from before the incident he hopes that Smokescreen never loses his spunk.

TFA Ratchet: Tfa Ratchet recognizes the affects of war in Tfp Optimus immediately and he decides to make him take a nap. He absolutely does not like Tfp Ratchet due to Tfp's stupid decisions regarding the fuel situation because even if he understands why, he knows that what Tfp Ratchet has done isn't right. Seeing Tfp Bumblebee makes him appreciate the fact that Tfa Bee still has his voice. Tfa Ratchet sees Tfp Bulkhead as a very strong individual.

TFA Bumblebee: Tfa Bee immediately want's to race Tfp Bumblebee. He thinks that Smokescreen is pretty cool and wants to spar with him. He thinks Tfp Arcee is someone who will do what it takes to protect her friends. Bee is a little weirded out at the difference between Tfa Bulkhead and Tfp Bulkhead.

TFA Bulkhead: He is in Awe at how Tfp Bulkhead is unbothered at the thought of only being good at breaking things (which isn't exactly true). Tfp Ratchet scares him a little because he is a 'younger version' of Tfa Ratchet. Tfa Bulkhead is surprised at how professional Tfp Prime is compared to Tfa Prime. He sees Tfp Bumblebee as a lesser excitable version of Tfa Bee and wants to help Tfp Bee have fun.

TFA Prowl: Prowl sees Tfp Primes need for peace and quiet and immediately offers to teach him some meditation techniques. He greatly enjoyed the race with Arcee but refuses to tell anyone who won the race. He is caught off guard when Smokescreen asks him to train him but after some consideration he agrees. Prowl understands that sometimes Tfp Bumblebee needs someone to talk to that won't ask about his voice so he becomes that person.

I've decided to spread some love by telling my favorite writers what I love about their works.

In this case, it's for both you and @humanityinahandbag

I'm sure you get these kind of notes all the time. Your stories over on ao3 are wonderful, with the kids acting so much like kids, and Tom and Maddie trying to stay on top of dealing with these three super powered aliens who try to skip out on their homework and put off their chores as long as possible. I love how normal they all act, I love how they interact with each other, and I love how dealing with every day life and real issues (such as Knuckles hitting puberty) are handled so well and maturely. Every story has so much emotion, it's always a pleasure to read.

Thank you both for sharing your talents with the rest of us. I, for one, love seeing what you come up with. <3

Oh @mama-qwerty , we might hear things like this often, but @humanityinahandbag and I never get tired of it! ❤️❤️❤️

It's such a passion of mine, this building on and expanding from what snippets of domesticity we get from the movies (in between the big action set pieces that I totally understand are what the movies are always going to prioritize). I love exploring the smaller, day-to-day struggles of this family and it fills me with so much joy that so many fellow fans are enjoying it right along with me!

Thank you so much for your kind words! You've absolutely made my day! ❤️❤️❤️

[getawayfox]

Do you have favorite Drarry tropes :)?

Hi Anon! Thank you for sending this ask and giving me an excuse to make another self-indulgent rec list. It was so much fun - mainly because I haven’t been reading much in the last few weeks, so revisiting my favourites for this has been an absolute blast. 

I’m a soft bean and while I will read and enjoy angsty tropes on occasion, you’ll more likely find me searching for wholesome stories. And smut. So, here is a handful of favourites for my most sought-after tropes. I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I do!

👬 Established relationship

Dragon by @lqtraintracks (M, 356 words) Things get interesting when your husband's Patronus is a Romanian Ridgeback.

It Is I Who Will Surely Expire by @tepre (T, 1k)

I call this: Draco Malfoy is super awake at 3AM staring at the ceiling going over dramatic doom scenarios (while Harry drools on his chest)

Through the Window, Clear Skies by @tackytigerfic (M, 1.4k)

What would happen if Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy moved in together, too soon after they started kissing and then fucking and not hating each other anymore? Will Draco insist on a wine rack? Or: Domestic Drarry with a bare hint of angst.

acts of service by @oknowkiss (E, 5.6k)

Harry's sick, and Draco just wants to take care of him, but they're two idiots in love, so it couldn't possibly be that easy.

✨Bonus: this piece by @bluebutter-art

🤍 Found family

Take the Moon by @tackytigerfic (M, 15k)

Harry Potter has always wanted a family of his own, and when a deadly blood curse forces him into a marriage bond with his best friend Draco Malfoy, it looks like he might just have found one. Living with Draco (biscuit-lover, no work/life balance, good hair) and his son Scorpius (also biscuit-lover, colour-codes his bricks, proud bearer of plastic swan-shaped garden ornament) gives Harry the routine and companionship he’s always craved. There’s also the matter of the really great sex (because what’s a marriage of convenience without a little fun, after all?) It's just a shame they’d always planned to break up after a year… This isn't the story of the marriage. This is the story of two hurt and damaged men who learned how hard they could work for the sake of love.

Beneath the Wave by @moonflower-rose (M, 30k)

Harry is done with a life in the spotlight. No more adventures, no more mortal peril. He wants a quiet life of food and friends, and family. He even manages to have it for a while, until suddenly there are giant rabbits that need ferrying to a mysterious island, and a handsome Draco Malfoy, and Harry's right back in the middle of the action again, despite his best efforts.

Pages of You by @wolfpants (E, 101k)

Summer, 1980. Harry is floating between university and becoming a Real Certified Adult. He's not ready. He really isn't. In a desperate attempt to have the Best Last Summer ever, he takes a casual job at his godfather's bookshop in London, starts an illicit pen pal affair with a wordy posh boy that he's catching feelings for, all while dealing with the son of Sirius's business rival, one Draco Malfoy, insufferable know-it-all extraordinaire. A story about trying to figure out who you are, where you're going in life, and who you want to take along with you.

Make This Leap by @oflights (M, 118k)

Harry owns a struggling restaurant which is running out of money, and his Head Chef has just handed in notice. He's at a bit of a loss as to what to do until Narcissa Malfoy presents an obvious solution: bring in Draco Malfoy as Chef and part owner. Harry does.

✨Bonus: more art by @bluebutter-art

🍋 Smut with feelings

Your Breath, My Lungs by @wolfpants (E, 1.7k)

I try not to think of the years we have behind us. School was a lost cause, it was always going to be a lost cause, but in the time since—Eighth Year, all of us cautiously coming together the way we had, how we all ended up, how we are now, nine years later, friends and loved ones and infinitely intertwined—I can’t help but worry if it’s too late for us. Maybe I’ve waited too long to tell him how I feel. - During a friend's engagement party, Harry finally tells Draco how he feels about him.

It isn't easy keeping a relationship a secret, especially when it's so new. So if Harry and Draco can find a moment to sneak off for some alone time, they're going to take it - even if it happens to be during Ginny and Luna's wedding party.
