A Mist That Appears (For a Little Time)
Prompt: “Sweet November,” 2001, Pat O’Connor Written by: dodgerkedavra Narrated by: reveriepi Podfic Length: 02:25:58 Rating: Explicit Warnings: Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Vomiting, Implied/Referenced Child Abuse
Summary: “Give me November, and I’ll teach you to be happy. There’s only one condition. You must swear on your magic that you won’t fall in love with me.” Harry’s so tired. His whole body hurts. If Malfoy can teach him how to be happy, then... “Okay.” Harry is working himself to death. Draco only has November to help him. Falling in love is strictly against the rules.

As You Wish
Prompt: "The Princess Bride", 1987, Rob Reiner Written by: Pineau_noir Narrated by: Cailynwrites Podfic Length: 02:31:28 Rating: Teen and up Warnings: None
Summary: Draco was raised on a farm in the small country of Witshire; his favourite pastimes were flying on his broom and tormenting the hired farm boy. Though his name was Harry, Draco never called him that. On Harry's forehead there was a scar shaped like a lightning bolt, so Draco called him Scarhead.
Nothing gave Draco as much pleasure as ordering Harry around.
Or a story about fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, True Love, and miracles.

My Big Fat Weasley Wedding

Summary: A decade after the war, Harry Potter is lost. There was a time when he knew exactly who he was, where he was going, and what he wanted. He is not that man anymore. Until one day he decides he is done. No more wearing clothes that don't fit, stuck in a job that was meant to be temporary, and simply coasting through his life. He has a plan. And, unsurpisingly, every single Weasley and honourary Weasley seems to have an opinion about it. But it's fine. Harry knows he is doing the right thing.
What he didn't plan for, however, was to find love in the most unexpected place. And with the most unexpected person. Still, it's going to be fine. Like he said, he has a plan. Weasley opinions be damned. He's got it all under control. Doesn't he?
Featuring a million Weasleys, a daft labrador, and a whole bunch of people just trying to figure out their lives.

Summary: It has been centuries since an attack on the castle of a royal scion. Centuries, until now.
The Realm of Hogwarts is ruled by eight noble Slytherin families, aided by their Gryffindor armies. Each kingdom possesses a Horcrux—the most precious source of magic to the throne. But when the Kingdom of Malfoy finds their Horcrux stolen, Prince Draco must break all protocol and enlist the help of a commoner, Harry, to find what's missing. All the while, an evil beyond the horizon stirs, Dementor attacks are increasing, and civil unrest is burning across the land. Can Draco and Harry recover the Horcrux and save the realm? And will they be able to resist their growing attraction to each other in the meantime?

Now, it's up to Draco to fulfill that wish despite the looming threat of criminals hunting for the child. To think, just the day before, he was fretting over his inappropriate feelings for his annoying, bespectacled git of a housemate—not the mechanics of changing nappies!
Thank Merlin it takes a village to raise a sack of flour, ah, child.

Amidst this burgeoning animosity, Ms Romilda Vane began to spread malicious rumours regarding Malfoy, further tarnishing his reputation.

Summary: Malfoy has been reliving the same day for longer than he can keep track of now, and has just assumed that he was dead in the real world, which was fine to him. It isn't until the time loop stops doing what he expects that it occurs to him that maybe there's something else going on.

Hello there!
I've always wanted to start sharing fics that I like, but creating a whole list feels like such a mountain to climb over. So, I've decided to go through my June bookmarks and recommend the fics that really stood out to me. I do not have a talent for describing how fics make me feel (evidenced by the amount of people who've seen me growling in their bookmarks), but I hope I'm able to tell you just how much I liked these fics this month.
How I Met Your Father M, 95k by @dracogotgame for H/D Smoochfest
As an obsessive rewatcher of How I Met Your Mother, this fic gave me literally everything I needed and more. The characters matched their show counterparts so so so well, while still feeling like the classic HP characters we know and love (from fanon, of course.) Draco's journey in this fic was charming, and watching Harry grow and find himself was such a joy to experience. If you like How I Met Your Mother, then this fic will make you squeal. When worlds collide etc.
An Emerald In The Sky M, 6.6k by @corvuscrowned for @hd-wireless 2022
I read this in its entirety while waiting in line for a corn dog at a theme park, then proceeded to order my corn dog through tears. I don't usually cry when I read fics, but this one broke me and put me back together in the span of about fifteen minutes. I loved watching these two continually find their way back to each other, and Draco's voice in this made me absolutely fall in love with him. I'm also a sucker for time travel fics, so this was a treat.
The Dying of the Light E, 20k by @chamomileteafuel for @lcdrarry 2023
I love Harry in this fic. Watching him grow to accept his situation, along with the people around him, was a great experience. I'm a big fan of right person, wrong time fics and this gave me exactly what I needed. Even if that second chance came in the (kinda)afterlife.
That Old Black Magic E, 77k by @carpemermaid for @hdtropes 2019
This fic was heart-wrenching. When I think of fuck-or-die, this is what I will think of from now on. The stakes were high as all hell, and they remained high throughout the entire story. The shaky requirements of their situation gave this a tension that kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. The epilogue was hilarious and satisfying, and I wish for the life of me that I could read this for the first time again.
When Times are Dire E, 130k by @aibidil
I don't know why I put off reading this fic for so long. Maybe because every single fic I've read by aibidil has been an absolute treasure, and I like to lengthen the amount of time between readings, really savor these works. But, GOD, reading this was such a wonderful time for me. Once upon a time, I was a political science major, and this scratched a very specific itch I have for Wizarding politics and politics in general. The kids' personalities were all so charming, and I loved the family dynamics present here. Aibidil really put these two grandpas in a situation, and it was so satisfying to watch them work through it, along with their long-standing inner struggles.
See you all next month (hopefully) with more!
xx, Moon

LCDrarry REVEALS
I was so honored to participate in this year’s @lcdrarry!!
Prompt: “Fleabag”, 2019, TV Series
Author: MurderGrandma
Word Count: 5,369 words
Rating: Mature
Warnings: miscarriage, trans woman assuming a miscarriage for a cis woman (everyone assumes it’s possible bc magic)
Summary:
Love is awful.
Draco Malfoy is dreading helping Pansy Parkinson plan her wedding. That's something horrible people dread, and perhaps that makes her a horrible person. She's determined to behave, until old connections and an increasingly surreal and intolerable dinner party gets the better of her.
A/N: thank you so much to the incredible mods of this fest for being so generous with extensions! Life happened while writing.
And thank you so much to @dromikins for being an incredible beta and cheerleader!
Read the fic here

Harry Potter And The Disorder Of The Phoenix
Author: postjentacular | @postjentacular
Rating: G
Tags: Meta, lcdrarry 2019, (almost) everyone lives
Exploding Snap Trope: Five (5) of Ravenclaw | Everyone Lives AU
Word Count: 1304
Summary: An exasperated werewolf-slash-professor, a decidedly not-dead drama queen, a brat, and a straight white man settle down to watch a movie. It goes as well as you’d expect.
Excerpts: “I know what the end of a movie looks like, I’m not some Muggle Studies troll-out, but it jumped, it’s missing a bit. That’s not how it finished.”
“Just give them a quick call, Remus. The muggles. All of them.
Rec Notes: Read on as Harry and Sirius have a crisis, Remus is just trying to grade his papers and Draco is an instigator!
This fic is hilarious! It was so hard to pick out 1-2 excerpts from this hilarious fic… But I think the above 2 are a good indicator of how fun this fic is. It’s meta. Remus and Sirius are such a cute couple. Their interactions are so much fun. They’ve raised their queer, POC godson (as it should be).
Sirius and Harry’s freak outs are so well written. The banter between Sirius and Draco is top notch. All the dialogues and characterizations are so spot on!
Check this out if you’re in need of some giggles!
I read this as part of @gameofdrarry's Exploding Snap - A great initiative to expose us to wonderful fics with different tropes

I was tagged by the wonderful @gracerene09​ <3
Rules: It’s time to love yourselves! Choose your 5 favorite works you created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought into the world in 2019. Tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!
Last year was a tough one for me. I was going through a lot of personal stuff, and had some big impactful things happen that really cut down on my ability, and willingness to write. I have to send a huge shout out to Grace and the erised mods for being so kind while I quietly dropped out for some of those reasons. That being said, I did write a piece or two that I’m still exceptionally proud of. 
Catching the Niffler - Co-written with @keyflight790​ [E | 10k | Drarry] Summary: “Tonight, we’re going to play Catch the Niffler.”Harry heard a couple of squeals from around the room and he let out a breath. Last week they had played Spin the Bottle, and Harry could count on more than one hand the witches that had spelled the glass to point to him during their turn. Harry had tasted enough sticky lip balm and cherry chapstick to last a lifetime.**No Nifflers were harmed in the writing of this fic** Notes: We wrote this for @bixgirl1​‘s prompt for hpkinkfest. Chris and I genuinely love writing together, and she pulled me out of a bad place to put this all together. And honestly, I’m so happy she did. It was our second venture since kinky christmas, and I’m still so proud of it. 
Dying in LA Part 1 and Part 2 - [E | 14.4k for both parts | Drarry ] Summary: Part 1 - After the war, Harry loses all sense of purpose. He travels the world aimlessly, from one spot to the next, chasing a high that never lasts. When the morning comes all that's left is a pounding head, and a foul taste in his mouth. Until he stumbles into a bar in L.A., where his past and present collide. Part 2 - It's been one year since Harry left L.A. and his life with Draco. Notes: Wrote this for @lcdrarry​ at the start of last year, because we all know I can’t resist writing Panic! At the Disco song based Drarry fics so. That’s what happened. There’s a lot in this fic, so mind the warnings. I struggled to finish the story, but as I told Chris earlier today, I’m glad it’s over. It feels a bit like closing a chapter on my life. And now that it’s done, I can breathe again.
The truth is rarely pure (and never simple) - [E | 4k | Wolfstarbucks] Summary: James goes camping with Remus and Sirius. When the rain washes away any plans for a hike, they find themselves stuck inside their tent with little to do. Notes: This was something I wrote for me, based on something that had happened to me in my early twenties. There’s feels and smut, and yeah. Like the other two, this one means a lot to me as well. 
Exactly 120 degrees - [T+ | 2k | Blairon] Summary: Ron is livid. Medium, Soy, Half-Caf Latte. With whip. Steamed to exactly 120 Degrees. What the hell is wrong with this tall, obnoxious, devilishly handsome, arsehole? Notes: I don’t know what this was. Don’t ask. I wanted to write something funny, or at the least cheeky, with my boy Blaise <3, in text-fic form. That’s all this is. But I still love it all the same.
Obedience: To the letter - [E | 2.6k | Percy Weasley/Barty Crouch Sr] Summary: Sometimes following the rules can get you into trouble. Notes: I’m pretty sure this was the first thing @cheekytorah-laceybauthor ever beta’d for me. This and #6 were inspired by pure randomness in the Drarry server started by the wonderful @lalionnebelle.  And one more for good measure (Because I couldn’t not put this damned thing on the list)
The foley of Spring - [E | 1k | Firenze/Whomping Willow] Summary: Firenze follows his herd as they head into mating season, but something rather unconventional awaits him. Notes: Honestly? I have nothing to say about this other than, I blame the drarry discord. As per usual. Pure shenanigans. 
And sooooo now I shall tag: @april-thelightfury115 @diligent-thunder @coriesocks @chromat1cs @gnarf @hogwartsfirebolt @cheekytorah-laceybauthor @letsdothepanic @olliemaye @harrypotterfanfictionwriter @thefifthbiscuit @thunder-of-dragons and literally anyone else who wants to do this thing.

FIC CLAIM !
Title: Love, Harry
Written for the ‘Light Camera Drarry’ fest, 2019
Inspired by the films ‘Love, Simon’ and ‘Alex Strangelove’
Author: @big-draco-energy​  [Zzzara on AO3]
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 26.348
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Tags: Letters, Epistolary,Slow Burn, Falling In Love, Secret Identity, Secret Identity Fail, Reveal, Disguise, Closeted Character, Coming Out, Outing, Pining, Hogwarts Eighth Year,  Angst, Friendship, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, idiots to lovers, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Boys In Love, Explicit Sexual Content, First times. Happy Ending
A/N:
I loved ‘Love, Simon’ to pieces, and as soon as I had watched it, I knew that I wanted to write a Drarry story based on it. I came across ‘Alex Strangelove’ accidentally, and honestly didn’t think I’d love it that much. However, for all its cheesiness and certain moments that made me cringe, there were scenes that impressed me, made me laugh, made me cry and stayed with me. As soon as the LCDrarry fest had been announced, I instantly knew that I would be writing a combination of both films. Creating this story was endless fun, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it.
Summary: 
Harry Potter keeps a huge secret: that scary thing he can't tell anyone about. Until a mysterious penfriend changes his life, because he keeps a secret, too.
Excerpt:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"I am mostly fine these days. As fine as anyone after the war can be. We all cope as best as we can, some of us doing better than others, some pretending to. But there's this thing about me which I can't talk about with my family or friends - this huge secret I don't have the guts to share. Nobody knows I'm gay.
Noir"
I read and reread the note pinned to the board near the staircase, my lips repeating the last sentence, stumbling over that tiny word again and again: Nobody knows I'm gay. Nobody knows I'm gay. I'm gay.
I'm gay.
Gay
Gay
GAY
This morning on my way out, I brushed past it, not paying any attention. Not having the tiniest clue that the piece of parchment was already there, waiting patiently for me to discover it. Black lines written in elegant hand. Staring, I felt as though falling deep into the entire new world hidden beneath the parchment-flat surface.
It was meant for me; and though the person who wrote these words has no idea - the message was meant for ME, and I have received it. He reached out, as though offering me his hand - a gesture of friendship, an invitation to honesty - and I am taking it, confirming this secret bond between us. I am no longer alone.
Noir.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Eternally grateful  to my wonderful betas: @keyflight790 and @the-prince-of-tides  for your help, advice and support. Working with you was the greatest joy and fun! <3
Many thanks to our dear mods Tami ( @llap115 ) and Suzi ( @erin-riwen ) - for the enormous work you had put into this fest, for making it come true in such a bright, creative and joyful way, thank you!

Rules: It’s time to love yourselves! Choose your 5 favorite works you created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought into the world in 2019. Tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!
Sorry, this became quite long! If anyone’s just looking for fics, I’ve bolded them to make them easier to see!
1.    A Week at the Humdinger
This was written for LCDrarry 2019, and I can’t tell you how much I love it. I’ve always loved the movie Pretty Woman, and this fest popped up on my radar a few months after I posted my drabble, A special client. The idea to continue it had already been floating around in my head for a few months, so I figured, why not? 
The world building on A Week at the Humdinger was very self-indulgent. Opulent hotels, fancy dinners, being able to buy out an entire row of tickets at a charity concert, paying my friends’ tuition—good stuff man, good stuff.
I think this was also the first long fic I’d written and posted that didn’t revolve around children or have them heavily feature in it (yes, I know, I put Teddy into it, but still, the story would have worked perfectly without him).
Finally, I loved creating the art to go with A special client. It took a lot of work (and a lot of coaching from my sister, who actually understands proportions, lol) but I love how it turned out.
Rating: Explicit Length: 52 231 words (plus A special client- 235 words) Summary: What happens when Europe's richest business tycoon asks London's poorest (probably) prostitute for directions? An adventure at the Humdinger, and a love story to last the ages. Or at least the week. Pairings : Drarry, Pansy/Millicent/Luna
2. Sex Ed for Witches and Wizards of All Ages
Okay, so Sex Ed is a topic that is very near and dear to my heart. I have studied it extensively through my academic career, and continue to learn so much amazing stuff from so many amazing people every day! I’ve said time and again that Sex Ed for Witches and Wizards of all ages is not a reliable guide to sex ed, because I did not fact check the entire thing, and honestly? It’s fan-fiction. 
That being said, I really wanted to challenge readers to reflect on what they think is important to teach children, and how much of an impact learning about consent, respect, trust, sexuality, healthy bodies and healthy relationships can have on all humans as they grow. As always, please talk to a trusted health care provider or qualified sex educator for questions/concerns related to sex ed!
Rating: Explicit Length: 77 066 words (my longest fic posted!) Summary: Draco and Astoria decide on their wedding night that they're not going to raise their future children with the same outdated traditions they were raised with, especially relating to love and sex. They never could have predicted exactly how much that decision would change Scorpius' life. Pairings: Starts with Drastoria, Hinny, eventual Drarry, Scorbus and Jeddy
3. The Godric’s Hollow Wizarding Parents Association
This is technically a year and a bit ago, but I think to this day GHWPA is one of my favourite fics I’ve written and deserved a mention! It was inspired by a Tasty Junior video showing how to arrange your fridge so that children could pack their own lunches, which is what Harry does with his kids in my story. I always see all kinds of clever tips and tricks online, and never get to use them irl, so I figured why not put them in a fic?
I also took GHWPA as an opportunity to really express how much food means in my daily life. I love cooking and baking, but I also love learning about different cuisines of the world and sharing that joy and connection that so many people associate with food, sometimes without even realising it!
Rating: Explicit Length: 26 298 words Summary: When Draco decided to move his small family to Godric’s Hollow, little did he know he’d have to deal with misleading television programs, some surprisingly friendly neighbours and a bit of peanut butter. Okay, lots of peanut butter. Pairings : Drarry, Past Drastoria and Hinny
@hptruefan-cheekytorah also made a gorgeous mood board for it, go check it out!
 4. I hosted the Drarry Discord Drawble challenge! It’s a lot of fun participating in the drabble and drawble challenge every month, but it was a whole new experience to host it, because it made me so much more aware of the artists in our community and gave me a whole new set of responsibility to manage for the month! It was a lot of fun though, and I encourage anyone who wants some drabbles and lovely art to check out the Drarry Discord Writer’s Corner Drabble Challenge tag on AO3 for all the amazing work creators have made in the months that this challenge has been running.
 5. So this isn’t an accomplishment that’s easy to display on Tumblr, but I’ve gotten a lot better at balancing my fandom participation with my real life. There was a time in the past couple of years when I would write and interact in fandom during every free moment I could find, often as a way to get away from stress and uncertainty in real life. I’ve been getting better at stepping back from fandom and managing my real life, and it’s working—my marks have improved in school, I left a job that was terrible for my mental and physical health to find something that makes me much happier, and I’ve pulled a complete 180 on my career path, and now have a much happier outlook on the future! Funny enough, through all that, I feel more connected to the fandom community than before! So if you’ve beta’d for me, cheered me on, liked or commented on my work, made a meme that made me laugh, sprinted with me, shared your own work that inspired and moved me, or even just said hi to me in passing, know that I really love and appreciate you!
 I won’t tag anyone because I’m sure the few people I know on Tumblr have already been tagged, but if you haven’t and would like to do this, please do!
