Scorbus Halloween Master List 🎃

we don't have to pretend by dustyspines

"Hey, no," Albus began, tilting Scorpius' chin up so they were looking at each other again. "It's never too late to talk about her. If the feelings are still as raw as they were that day, which they clearly are, and you still both are grieving, then it isn't too late. It'll never be like that." He finished, leaning inwards towards Scorpius and, before either of them could really register what was going on, pressed their lips together. It was short, sweet and slightly too wet (in Scorpius' eyes anyway), but it happened.

"You just kissed me." Scorpius said, in a comment that was meant to remain internal, but of course it slipped out.

Halloween 2021 by torestoreamends

It’s been a year (or forty years, depending on how you look at it) since the events of Godric’s Hollow. A lot has changed in that time, almost all of it for the better, but it’s still Hallows’ Eve. It’s never been the easiest of days.

Harry and Albus visit Godric's Hollow on Hallow's Eve, to join the vigil taking place outside the Potter's destroyed house. What Are You Putting In The Pumpkin Today? by Wyrdmazer

What will you choose this evening: head or a head? Or maybe more heads?

And, yes, it is a word-play.

Oh! You Pretty Thing by orphan_account

It’s 2021, Albus and Scorpius are in fifth year, and Headmistress McGonagall has surprised the student body by allowing some school-sanctioned mischief to go down over Halloween. It’s all fun and games until someone takes the idea of Trick Or Treat too far, resulting in both Albus and Scorpius getting the wrong end of the stick about a very important matter. Have they done the unthinkable and ruined their friendship forever, or will they come out of the other side stronger (and closer) than ever?

Around the Bonfire by BookofSpells

Albus and Scorpius are invited to a spooky Halloween Bonfire in the Forbidden Forest. It's scary, but not nearly as terrifying as Albus' feelings for his best friend.

Another Deathday Disaster by Hang_In_There_Baby_Crookshanks

A Confusion of Coordinated Costumes by heatherwiththeweather

Albus and Scorpius have their first date to the Hogwarts Halloween dance, which means only one thing-costumes. But of course, nothing can ever run smooth with this pair and on the day of the dance, they realise there has been a costume malfunction which does nothing to help with their increasing first date nerves. It's safe to say that dating isn't as simple as it looks.

Al O'Lantern by Ms_Peppersimp

Albus and Scorpius are carving pumpkins on Halloween and a not-so coincidence occurs when they reveal their designs.

Happy Halloween by CQueen

Five year old Scorpius Malfoy is very sad. Not only is his grandfather being very mean, but against his will Scorpius has been forced to dress up as a kitten for a Halloween party.

The icing on the gross cake of his life is that his magical kitten tail has trapped him outside, and it's up to a very brave little lion to save him.

And not only does the boy in the lion costume save him…but he has a proposal for him. Of marriage.

What?

The Board of Spirits by BookofSpells

“How does it work?” Albus asks, his curiosity piqued. He picks up a small, heart-shaped block of painted wood with a magnifying glass in the centre and taps it against the board. Nothing happens.

“It’s like a game,” Scorpius explains, sitting on the bed and gesturing for Albus to join him. “The kids put their fingers on the planchette and pretend to perform a séance. Supposedly, the spirit communicates with them by moving the planchette over the letters and numbers on the board. There is always one cheeky kid that moves it themselves, to trick the others.”

Albus has been hiding his feelings for Scorpius for as long as he can remember. It takes a bit of luck, a spirit board, and four whimsical spirits to show him what's possible.

The Witches' House by TrueMeg

“I dare you to go to the witches’ house!”

On Halloween night, ten-year-old Albus is brought along with James and his friends to go visit the house at the edge of their village, where a family of witches is said to live. But when Albus ends up stuck at the house, he sees the witches for himself. And learns they’re much more like him in more ways than one.

Scorbus Headcanons

(Please tell me if you would like me to write a short fic off of any of these, because I love them)

Scorpius is insanely affectionate, don’t even try to argue with me on this one, you know it’s true

Even when he and Albus are still “just friends” he is touching him All. The. Time.

The worst part is Albus doesn’t even realize Scorp is doing it at this point because he’s just so used to all of this affection from him

James passes them in the library one day and sees Scorpius with his arms wrapped around his brother’s waist while Albus is looking on the shelves for a book and he’s just like “????”

When James asks Albus about it later he is just like “Oh, I didn’t even notice.”

By the time they start their third year no one in the school is sure whether they’re dating or just friends because they’re with each other 24/7

Albus does weird motherly things for Scorpius like fold his clothes and wipes the crumbs off of his face at dinner

Albus also picks out all of Scorpius’ clothes for when they go to Hogsmeade or other trips and complains the entire time which drives Scorpius mad

“You’d think coming from a family like yours you’d have more class, Scorp. Really, it’s almost shameful.”

“Well I’m sorry that you took more after my own father than I did, Al.”

Even though he has better fashion sense, Albus literally just walks around in their dorm shirtless and in grey sweats which drives Scorpius up the fucking wall

Albus gets jealous as hell any time someone apart from his family talks to Scorpius for more than fifteen minutes at a time and will pull him away without an explanation

“Al, that was rude! She was in the middle of her sentence!”

“I don’t fucking care what she was in the middle of, she was basically undressing you with her eyes and it was bloody disgusting.”

Scorpius just smiles and throws an arm around Albus’ shoulders whispering things like “Jealous, love?” and “You want to do that yourself?”

Albus blushes like crazy any time he gets called out for showing any interest at all in Scorpius and you can’t change my mind

The amount of sass in this relationship is unmatched. I mean, their father’s are Draco I-didn’t-know-you-could-read Malfoy and Harry No-need-to-call-me-sir-Professor Potter, would you expect anything less???

Like when they’re sitting on the couch in the common room

“Hey Scorp, mind running up to the dorm and grabbing my book for me?”

“I wasn’t aware I was your errand boy, Al. Would you like me to fetch you some supper next?”

Or when they’re in the middle of class working on a new Potion

“Al, you think you could lend me an extra hand over here?”

“Sure, but I actually really fancy having two, ya know. And the blood would be a real bugger to get out of my robes.”

Albus doesn’t even know what a chair is anymore because he’s always sitting in Scorpius’ lap, regardless of where they are and who they’re in front of

There is so much unintentional PDA between the two of them it is unreal

The first time Scorpius kisses Albus on the cheek in public it’s a total accident

He was on his way to study but Albus had scored a detention for backtalking a Professor so he had to separate from him for a few hours

Without thinking, he just leans in and places a quick peck to Albus’ cheek

He doesn’t even realize what he’s done until he turns around and comes face to face with a wide eyed Rose

“Scorpius, did you just do what I think you just did?” Rose asks, bewildered.

Oh, both the boys are completely flustered

On any given afternoon Scorpius can be found curled up in one of Albus’ sweaters and his face buried into his chest/neck

Albus just pretends he’s not there or lightly rubs his back or runs his hands through his hair

When Scorpius goes through his “rebellious” phase about mid fourth year, he convinces Albus to pierce his ears at like midnight on a Tuesday

To make Scorpius stop crying, Albus pierces his too

You can only imagine the slightly mortified look on Ginny’s face (and the immensely proud one on Teddy’s) when Albus comes home for Christmas modeling black studs

Albus ends up liking it so much that by the end of the week he has Teddy pierce a second set of holes, as well as give him an industrial in his right ear

Scorpius finds it hot as hell

Albus is bad about leaving marks all over Scorpius at all the wrong times

For instance, the night that he had dinner over at the Malfoy’s for the first time, Scorpius had three dark purple kisses painted on his pale skin from just a few days prior

Draco was glaring at Albus througout the whole meal

You should’ve seen the look McGonagall gave him, he nearly thought he was going to turn to stone

Right before summer break their sixth year, Scorpius goes through a huge “I stan Teddy Lupin and everything he does” phase and decides he wants to dye his hair

Albus refuses to do it (he loves that diamond blonde way too much)

When he walks into his dorm room one day to find Teddy (“How the hell did you even get in here?”) knuckle deep in a bowl of neon blue hair dye, he nearly loses it, but they’re already halfway done so he had to let him finish

When they all leave Hogwarts a week later for summer vacation, Draco calls the Potter-Weasley household

“Potter!”

“What, Malfoy?” Harry nearly groans, blowing out a huff of air.

“Not you, the younger Potter, the one snogging my son. Put him on the phone, I need to ask why Scorpius’ hair is the color of a fruit loop.”

Albus and Draco have a very heated conversation about how they both absolutely cannot believe that Scorpius would do something like this

Scorpius is dying of laughter in the background the entire time

During their last year at Hogwarts, Albus shows up with a set of rings, each a simple silver band, one with a green gem and the other a diamond

Scorpius nearly cries when Albus gives him the green gem one during breakfast, full on kissing him in front of everyone in the Great Hall

“They’re the color of our eyes. Thought it might be nice to have,” Albus shrugs nonchalantly, but there’s a blush painting the tips of his ears

They both wear them on the middle finger of their right hand (Albus’ is displayed quite often because of how much he flips Rose the bird)

The day of their graduation from Hogwarts, Scorpius cries

When Albus asks him what’s wrong, he nearly feels his entire heart shatter

“This doesn’t mean we’re over, does it? We’re not over just cause we’re done with school, are we? We’re still going to be together?”

Oh Albus is having none of that

“Of course, Scorp! You can’t get rid of me that easily,” Albus teases, kissing Scorpius over and over until the tears finally stop rolling down his cheeks

After they arrive back on platform 9 3/4, they’re inseparable.

Harry and Draco are losing their bloody minds with how much of the other’s son they’re seeing now

“God, Potter. You’d think he practically lived here.”

“I could say the same for yours, I might start charging him rent.”

One day while both the families are out together at a diner (it was Scorpius’ idea), Ginny makes the comment that if they just got a house of their own then it wouldn’t be a problem

She was joking, of course, but the boys took it 100% seriously

So about a month later they bought a small but nice house not too far from either of their parents

And it was there, in the middle of their newly furnished living room, that Albus proposed to Scorpius with another silver band

But this time, it went on his ring finger.

(These are the headcanons I was talking about hahah @ellavaneck)

[beetlegoose01]

some things never change

AN: Short drabble where Scorbus take their daughter to her first day of primary school.

Title is because I was listening to the Frozen 2 soundtrack don’t cancel me

~~~~

"Come on daddy! Come on Papa, we're gonna be late!" Five year old Astoria marched through the corridors, her shiny black shoes making a clicking noise at every step. Ecstatic for her first day of school.

"We're coming dear." Albus assured his daughter, smiling softly at her enthusiasm and eagerness to take charge. Fitting for a now primary school student- which was an odd thing to say. It felt like just yesterday he was rocking newborn Tori to sleep.

Scorpius was by his side, looking more reluctant, clearly upset about her leaving too. Albus nudged him playfully and gave his hand a reassuring squeeze.

"I'm gonna go colour, an' eat snack, an' have storytime an' make lots n' lots of friends!" She squealed joyfully as she listed each individual activity. " But I won't need to learn how to spell my name, because I already know how to!"

"Yes, but there will be other things you'll learn." Scorpius said.

"Just remember to-" Albus was cut off.

"Not talk about magic, I know." She rolled her eyes. They had been over this many times. They had picked a muggle primary school for their precocious daughter to prepare her with simple maths and writing before sending her off to Hogwarts.

Tori spun around, giggling in her smart blue dress and matching blue bows in her strawberry blonde hair. "This is Ms. Wilson's room!" She sang, pointing at the label above the door.

"That it is," Scorpius nodded. He was grinning, but Albus noticed how miserable his eyes were.

"You can meet her, but then you hafta go, okay?" Tori said seriously. She stepped on her tiptoes to open the door wide for her dads to squeeze in the classroom.

The classroom was a small, pastel painted room with several drawings decorating the walls. Toys, blocks, and little desks were scattered around, along with easels for painting, bookshelves and a purple rug near the teacher's desk. There were already a few children playing and chatting to one another.

"Everything is so small." He whispered to Scorpius, who chuckled fondly.

"Indeed."

"Hello!" Ms. Wilson said warmly. She was young with bright eyes and braided dark curls. She knelt down to be at near eye level with Tori. "What's your name, poppet?"

Tori suddenly grew very shy, looking at her dads for help. She tugged on Scorpius' trouser leg nervously, hoping he would introduce her instead.

"Go on, darling," Scorpius patted her shoulder.

"Astoria." She said, voice barely audible. Her green eyes went wide, then darted down to look at her shoes.

"What a lovely name." Ms. Wilson smiled, checking her name off the clipboard. "And you must be her dads?" She addressed them politely. "The Malfoy-Potters?"

"Yeah," Albus said, relaxing instantly. "Er, I'm Albus and this is my husband Scorpius."

"Yes, hello!" Scorpius waved. "Will she be okay here?" He looked incredibly anxious. "Because she's very clever but very shy, and she's a little...gifted in certain aspects and I just want to make sure-"

"She'll be just fine." Ms. Wilson said. She looked as though she was used to frantic parents.

"We best be off then. Tori, we'll pick you up at three. Be good, yeah?" Albus squatted down, kissing her cheek. Tori nodded. "Atta girl." Though she looked eager for them to leave and play with the other kids, she hugged him tightly.

"Bye daddy!" She turned to Scorpius, and gave him a hug too. "Bye papa!"

"Bye bye pumpkin." Scorpius' lip quivered.

"See you!" Tori skipped away to join a girl with curly hair by the dollhouse. “Hi, I’m Tori!” Noticing her dads were still there, she turned and frowned, huffing. "Shoo!"

"I've got it all taken care of." Ms. Wilson said.

Albus gave Ms. Wilson one last smile. "Cheers. Have a good day!" He turned to leave, but as he was nearing the door...he noticed he was alone. Frowning, he looked back. "Scorpius?"

Scorpius hadn't moved a muscle and only now noticed Albus addressing him when he cleared his throat once more. "Oh! Um. Yes." He reluctantly trailed after him, then paused. "If anything happens, please don't hesitate to call us on the telly phone Ms. Wilson." He looked back at the puzzled teacher. "Anything at all."

"C'mon Scorp." Albus practically was dragging him by the collar, which was an amusing sight since he was so short, and Scorpius was tall and lanky still.

They left the classroom, silently walking down the corridor once more.

"I don't know why I'm like this," Scorpius said glumly. "She won't be even gone the whole day."

"I know. I miss her too." Albus said. "She'll be fine though."

"It's all happening so fast. Our little one isn't so little and I'm not emotionally prepared for that. How will we cope when we send her off to Hogwarts?" He nibbled at his lip. "Soon she won't need us anymore, and I'll be an old man in St. Oswalds, yelling at youths and being miserable."

"Oi," Albus lightly shoved him. "First off, don't say that. Even when she's all grown up, maybe with her own family, she'll need us. You still need your dad sometimes. I still need my parents too. She won't magically turn seventeen and then throw us out."

"Yes but..."

"And, that won't be for a long while. She's only five, Scorpius. We'll get through this one step at a time."

"Well yes-"

"Furthermore, you're going to grow old and wrinkly with me, eh? We'll be wrinkly old prunes together." Albus laughed, as they stepped into the warm autumn sunlight. "I wouldn't worry too much, love."

"No, actually, I believe I'll still have smooth skin at 90." Scorpius teased. "Malfoys don't get wrinkles. You however, might be a bit wrinkly."

"You'll still love me even when I get wrinkly?" Albus pretended to look hurt.

"Let me think about that..." Scorpius leaned in to kiss him softly. "Yup." He grinned.

"You're impossibly cheeky." Albus huffed. "C'mon, let's go spend some time together before we pick her up. And before you go for your shift. "

"Ooh, there's a shuffleboarding center just around the corner. I've heard the muggles around here say it's fun. Perhaps we could try that."

"Good Lord, we are old."

Read at your own risk.

I can’t believe there is always BS that pops up in the Scorbus tag from people that just don’t get it. It boggles my mind how low people can sink especially now when someone said only straight people refer to Scorbus as queerbaiting. Are you fucking kidding me? I feel like I am watching comedy become less funny. By the logic only straight people believe Cursed Child is queerbaiting,that’s basically stating JKR could have ended the book with Albus and Scorpius together and straight people wouldn’t mind. It’s nice to know queerbaiting thinkers are limited to straight people. You can have your own opinions about the play but when it comes down to stereotyping people, that’s not okay and never will be in any way, shape or form. 

Why are the hater’s so adamant on saying male friendships can be as deep as Albus and Scorpius? I like to ask you this, why does every male dynamic in Harry Potter have to be friendly? Why isn’t that question being raised? Why can’t we have one male relationship be gay where the two boys (Albus and Scorpius) love each other wholeheartedly and literally can’t live without each other? Why is same gender relationships always a problem? Why not pose the same questions for opposite genders? It seems to me like if people support two people of opposite genders as a couple, no one complains but the moment a gay pair is shipped, there is a sudden outburst. 

Whether you choose to believe it or not, no matter what the sexuality you are, Cursed Child is QUEERBAITING. Pretending it never happened or being completely blindsided to the reality of the problem doesn’t mean it’s not there. I would really appreciate if those who want other’s to think there wasn’t queerbaiting to stop forcing their views on others. That’s not going to happen. Each person is entitled to their own freedom of speech. Everyone has a different perspective.

You are trying to tell me, Albus and Scorpius separating and having an entire staircase sequence dedicated to them is a friendly moment, where they are broken beyond repair. They mean the world to each other and neither is stable without the other to a point Scorpius is depressed and Albus telling Delphi he is destroyed by Scorpius;s absence . Let’s not forget the line, ‘Both full of unhappiness.’ The separation was meant to make these two realize there is no life for them unless they are together.

What about the moment when Scorpius saw Albus talking to Delphi and a part of him not liking it? That’s also friendly? Right? If it was truly about the fact he doesn’t want to be replaced as a best friend, he wouldn’t have shut her down into coming with them. He doesn’t want her around. He feels something for Albus otherwise the part of him not liking it would have not been scripted. Each line is for a reason. 

Not only was Scorbus beautifully built as a gay love romance, they were set up from the very beginning with smiles toward one another before Albus even approached him. After finally meeting, thing’s would be the same anymore for either one. Explain to me why Scorpius wanted to go on adventures with him while knowing the decision’s weren’t positive but regardless, following him everywhere anyway. 

Moving on to the hug on the train. Albus initiated this particular hug and considering it’s their first hug, Albus hugged him with fierceness and it was held for a beat. Also keep in mind, they awkwardly dislocated. If the hug was so friendly, why would they awkwardly end it unless it had another meaning? Friends do hug each other. It’s normal. Apparently, not for Albus and Scorpius because it wasn’t an ordinary hug. 

Albus threatens his dad about what would happen if he doesn’t stay away from Scorpius followed by tears at the thought of not having Scorpius by his side. That’s intense for a father/son relationship. Albus can’t stand not having Scorpius in his life which is why telling him they have to separate ways was the most painful thing. Even Scorpius didn’t take the news very well. He was crying his heart out because of the forced distance between him and Albus.

At the library, Albus gave Scorpius a speech about he makes him stronger and toward the end he says, “when my dad forced us apart-without you- he clearly had more to say here. However, he cut the sentence short. That’s when Albus realized he has a special place for Scorpius in his heart. Scorpius responds with, “I didn’t much like my life without you in it either.” They are complete when together and incomplete when they are not. It’s in canon.

Delphi told Scorpius, him and Albus belong together and that’s the honest thing anyone has ever said in the entire play because it’s the truth. Albus and Scorpius do belong together and both know it. Albus realized it at the library, a little sooner then Scorpius. They hugged and Scorpius remembered it was the second hug Albus gave him. He keep’s tracks of his supposed friend’s hugs. So friendly, not……..

Scorpius was heartbroken when Albus left him. Why would the script say heartbroken? Surely, other words could have been the choices like devastated, sad, broken, etc…..heartbroken is typically used for couples once a relationship has ran it’s course. Interesting enough, the word was given to Scorpius in a scene where Albus had to let him go. In no way is that coincidental. Again, there is a purpose.

Who can forget the scene with Scorpius and Snape? Snape tells him, “You’re giving up your kingdom for Albus, right?” He even tells him to think about Albus because all it takes is one person and then Lily was brought up into the equation to describe the concept of Scorbus and we know Snape loved her and Lily loved him at one point. That was done on purpose. 

Albus told his dad, Scorpius is all he needs and when Harry attempts to encourage him to talk to other people, all Albus needs is Scorpius. That’s another thing. Neither Albus or Scorpius want to interact with others expect each other. If you’ve paid close attention, they are inseparable and are constantly together. They are joined by the hips.

Scorpius was the one that went to the library to see Albus and in doing so made Albus say, “If she finds us, we will be forced apart forever.” He begged Scorpius to hide inside the invisibility cloak with him to not be caught. I can’t imagine what would have happened if Scorpius didn’t oblige. Professor McGonagall saw them on the map and instead of busting them, she smiled to herself and said, “Well if you are not here, you are not here.” She walked off leaving them there. 

The third hug was in the water, a difficult task and Scorpius still managed to hug Albus. He delivers this line, “You have no idea how glad I am to see you.” He is way too happy to see Albus and was happy. He just went for the hug because he needed it and after such a long time, this is the first time Scorpius initiated a hug which shows they have come a long way. 

Delphi pointed the wand at Albus and he didn’t care whether he lived or died. He told her to do her worse and she pointed the wand at Scorpius to kill him and that’s what frightened Albus the most. She went crucio on Scorpius and Albus begged her to stop and that he will commit to whatever it is she needs him to do because seeing Scorpius at the verge of death and in pain bothered him. It also makes you think. Of all people and everything in his life, Scorpius dying is the worst thing that can happen to Albus.

Finally, we get a fourth hug (second hug initiate by Scorpius) and when Albus said, “What’s this? I thought you said we don’t hug.” And while hugging him, Scorpius says, “I wasn’t sure. Whether we should. In this new version of us I had inside my head.” Well, they are best friends now. So what new version can he possibly mean other then the inevitable boyfriends version? They can only go beyond friendship and not as anything less then a friendship. There you have it. He see’s Albus as boyfriend material.

The play was queerbaiting to the max because after all was said and done, Rose popped in Scorpius’s mind out of nowhere and he formed a fantasy of her even though they only spoke once, had no build up, and were basically dead. She even rejected him and yet we are supposed to believe they are the love story. It was unnecessary. The worst part is, she was only around to force heteronormativity which was beyond abnormal. Albus and Scorpius are the victims. Plain and simple.

There are enough male friendships in Harry Potter and the one and only time two males were undeniably gay based on the evidence in text (far from a friendship) they had to be stripped away from their will to be boyfriends. It was forced upon them. Albus and Scorpius didn’t ask hetero BS to come in between their non friendly love. 

The play should be called: The cursed child, the victims of heteronormativity. I haven’t seen worse queerbaiting in my life. Not making Scorbus canon is despicable, disturbing, disrespectful, homophobic, and horrifying behavior from the writer’s part. 

If the writer’s didn’t want a gay couple and were afraid if they took the risk, no one would watch the live show let alone buy the book, Albus and Scorpius shouldn’t have been written so gay and approved by JKR as such only to be played in the end for no reason at all. The queerbaiting was intentional.

Cursed Child writers reeled the Scorbus fanbase along for the ride in false hope they would become more then a friendship because everything was leading up to that climax and pretend Albus and Scorpius weren’t in love with each other. You can’t erase their history just because your (everyone involved with cursed child) biased writing’s attempt to brainwash us into falling for Albus and Scorpius being straight failed. None of you could have done a worse job. 

In conclusion, the play received backlash because of the writer’s poor decisions, as it should because the stunt that was pulled against Scorbus getting their right ending was cruel and deceitful. Next time if you don’t want gay characters, don’t sink so low to lead the reader’s on and instead, try writing the friendship properly without gay undertones if that was your intention.

ALBUS AND SCORPIUS ARE GAY. YOU MADE TWO GAY CHARACTERS. ACT ON IT. THEY ARE IN LOVE.

Galway Girl (Set to Win)

So this is my first fic on Tumblr, long story short I listened to the entirety of Ed Sheeran’s new album at like 2 am and decided to write this. So, I hope you enjoy.

Name: Galway Girl (Set to Win)

Pairing: Albus Potter/Scorpius Malfoy (Scorbus)

Universe: Muggle/Band AU

Warnings: There’s some yelling part way though and it’s kinda bad but if you want to skip it you can, you’ll know where it is because it’s in all caps.

The first time Albus saw him he almost broke his guitar...and the others violin. It wasn’t his fault, honestly, he was just….distracted. He had an undercut (which Albus may or may not have a thing for) with the long part at the top dyed a pastel purple, that’s when he noticed his eyes, the were silver SILVER like how is that even possible, then he realised the blond (blond? Yes Albus could see the shaved hair was a brilliant white colour) was wearing makeup. Albus then questioned if this beautiful person was a girl, then he mentally slapped himself because of course guys can wear makeup too, which led to the thought that well maybe they’re neither, that’s a thing right? He swore he heard Lilly talking about it once, how some people are born the wrong gender, some don’t have a gender and that some change from one to another. It was during this ridiculous train of thought that Albus missed the other barrelling towards him, a case in their hands.

“Oof,” Albus called as they ran straight into each other, their cases knocking together and falling to the ground beside them.

“Oh my god I’m so sorry,” the other...boy (Albus decides to go with boy, it seems like the safest option right now) apologises as he scrambles up, grabbing his case which Albus could now see was covered in stickers like “Violinist do it better” as well as “If it’s not about music I don’t care” and other things like that.

“It’s cool,” Albus replied snatching his guitar case and getting up to stand beside the other. “I’m Albus.” He proclaimed reaching out his hand.

“Scorpius,” The boy replied warmly reaching forward and shaking the others hand. “And before you say anything about the makeup I’ll have you know, boys can wear it too.”

Albus stuttered, taken back, “Oh n-no I wasn’t gonna say anything about it, I was actually thinking, well, that it looked very nice.” Albus smiled softly at the other who ducked his head down, but Albus could see that his pale ears were stained red with a blush.

‘Thanks,” Scorpius muttered still blushing. Suddenly he looked up and exclaimed, “Oh shit! I’m sorry I have to go, I'm performing soon.” He began to make his way towards to stage. “I hope to see you later Albus Potter!” He called over his shoulder as he rushed off.

Albus started gaping at where the lavender haired boy had stood just moments before. “How did he, how did he know who I am?” Albus questioned flabbergasted.

He moved toward the stage hoping to see his lavender enigma again. The current group on stage had just finished and the crowd aground him was cheering loudly as the band exited. Two men walked on stage, one with brown hair and one with black to announce the next group performing. This particular festival was one of Albus’ favourites, it was a competition split into 2 sections, groups and solos. Today was The last day for groups with the finals that night and solos starting tomorrow, Albus had never one but he had a good feeling about this year.

“For our next group,” the brown hair man called out.

The other picked up the end of his sentence. “We proudly present!”

“Silver Snakebite!” They yelled in unison

Albus watched as they walked on stage and his breath caught in his throat as the last person walked on stage. “Scorpius has snake bites, Jesus Christ I’ve only know this boy for 10 minutes and he's already gonna and up murdering me”. He hadn’t noticed how close he had gotten to the stage but somehow Albus had made it so he was standing right in front of Scorpius. Said silver eyed beauty was fiddling with his fiddle, plucking at the strings and messing with the bow before nodding toward the two girls, one sitting at the piano, the other set up with a cello. The girl, brown hair with blue streaks he noticed as he managed to tear his eyes away from Scorpius, began playing, the girl on cello, blonde with purple streaks, joining soon after while the only person Albus cared about continued to sway to the music as the brunette began to sing.

“I think I've been telling lies,

cause I've never been in love.

Everyone falls for the sunshine disguise, distracted by who they're thinking of.

I'd rather date an idea;

something I'll never find.

Sure, I'll live in the moment,

but I'm never happy here

I'm surrounded by greener looking time”

Scorpius brought up his bow and looked down at Albus, the green-eyed boy could see him breathe out as his eyes fluttered shut and he began to play.

“Am I the only one

wishing life away?

Never caught up in the moment

busy begging the past to stay

Memories painted with much brighter ink;

they tell me I loved, teach me how to think.”

Albus had forgotten how to breathe, Scorpius looked….gorgeous, no that was too simple of a word for the beauty that was the lavender boy. Pulchritudinous, yes that was perfect, he played with his whole body never ceasing his sway and never opening his eyes, he looked like he belonged somewhere magnificent and beautiful, like a far away meadow or in a fancy castle built into the mountains beside a waterfall.

“I'll take what I can get

cause I'm too damp for a spark.

Kissing sickly sweet guys

cause they say they like my eyes

but I'd only ever see them in the dark.

I'm sick of faking diary entries,

got to get it in my head; I'll never be sixteen again

I'm waiting to live, and waiting to love

oh it'll be over, and I'll still be asking when.

Am I the only one

wishing life away?

Never caught up in the moment

busy begging the past to stay

Memories painted with much brighter ink;

they tell me I loved, teach me how to think.

I'm sick of faking diary entries,

got to get it in my head; I'll never be sixteen again

I'm waiting to live, still waiting to love

oh it'll be over, and I'll still be asking when

oh it'll be over, and I'll still be asking when.”

Albus didn’t even notice when the song ended, only realising when Scorpius elegantly dropped his arm from the violin and started shyly at the astonished boy before moving to begin the next song. They all switched instruments, the blonde girl moving to a set of drums, the brunette to a guitar, and Scorpius to the piano.Scorpius began playing short staccato chords and the brunette started singing.

“We're on top of the world

We're on top of the world now darling so don't let go

Can I call you mine

So can I call you mine now darling

For a whole lot of time

My heart finally trust my mind

And I know somehow it's right”

The girl began playing the guitar, but as before all of Albus’ attention was directed toward Scorpius as he began to sing.

“And oh we got time, yeah

So darling just say you'll stay

Right by my side

And oh we got love, yeah

So darling just swear you'll stand right by my side

We're on top of the world

We're on top of the world now darling so don't let go

Hmm, I've got something to say

You're perfect in every way, I'm gonna shout it out

I'm wanna tell you now

'Cause I know somehow it's right

And oh we got time, yeah

So darling just say you'll stay right by my side

And oh we got love, yeah

Darling just swear you'll stand right by my side

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

You're my bright blue sky

You're the sun in my eyes

Oh baby you're my life

You're the reason why

We're on top of the world

We're on top of the world now darling so don't let go

(1, 2, 3, 4)

And oh, we got time

Yeah, we got love

So darling just swear you'll stay right by my side

Oh, and we got love, yeah

So darling just swear you'll stand right by my side

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Will you love me forever?

I'll love you forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever

Be my forever”

When they finished Albus was again left staring at Scorpius as if he was the most incredible thing to ever exist (which at that moment he may be) before they walked off stage and Albus snapped out of it. “Holy shit, I think I'm in love.” he whispered to himself before sprinting toward where the bands came out after performing.

He spotted the band and casually sauntered up to Scorpius (it was incredibly casually he was not freaking out and he did not almost trip when Scorpius turned and smiled when he saw him). “You were….really good,” Albus told the silver-eyed boy rubbing the back of his neck and looking down at his feet.

“Thanks,” Albus could see Scorpius digging the toe of his shoe into the ground. “Do you, uh want to go get something to eat?” HE asked nervously.

Albus looked around, realising that the sun was going down. “Sure, can we stop where I’m staying first, I need to drop my guitar off first.”

“Sure, there's a pub just around the corner if you want to go there,” Scorpius offered as they began walking.

“Sure sounds good,” Albus replied excitedly. The rest of the way to Albus’ car and to the pub was filled with never ending conversation and laughter. They were the same when inside, they found out that both their families were incredibly well off, Albus talked non-stop about his siblings for at least a half hour and found that Scorpius was an only child and his mom had died when he was 13 but his father had played mother and father so he never felt as if he was from a broken home. Albus talked about how his dad had given him a guitar for his birthday when he was seven and his mother had only let him play it during certain hours of the day so she wouldn’t go crazy. Scorpius talked about their huge music room that held more instruments than he could ever hope to play and how when he took up an interest in violin his father got him the best teacher he could find and even sent him to art school when he asked. By the end of the night, they knew each other better than anyone else and Albus couldn’t take it anymore. As they walked out into the night he stopped and stared at the stars.

“Where are you?,” Albus questioned and instead of just pointing like he had expected Scorpius moved to stand behind him, one hand on his waist, one on his wrist as he directed his hand into the sky.

“Right there,” Scorpius replied softly staring into the constellation that he was named after. Slowly Albus turned around and brought his hands to the slightly shorter boy's waist. HE started at the silver snake bites on his lips and brought his closer before pushing their mouths together. Albus could feel the cool metal as they kissed softly and sweetly before breaking apart. “I’ll see you tomorrow?,” Scorpius questioned his lips brushing against Ablus’ due to their closeness.

“Definitely,” Albus replied before breaking away and starting toward his car, song lyrics already running through his head.

When Scorpius got to their hotel from a magical night he was brought back to reality by a furious Clarity.

“WHERE WERE YOU,” the brunette girl screamed in his face as he opened the door to their hotel room.

“I was out,” he responded calmly, not wanting to deal with her when she was mad at him.

“WE HAD PRACTICE. IF YOU’RE NOT GONNA SHOW UP YOU SHOULD JUST QUICK THE BAND AND STOP BEING SUCH A FUCKING DEAD WEIGHT THAT WE HAVE TO DRAG AROUND BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE WANTS TO PLAY WITH YOU AND YOU’RE TOO MUCH OF A PUSSY TO DO IT ON YOUR OWN,” she screamed again and this when he finally snapped.

“Oh, I’m a dead weight? Who writes all our music, who gets us hotels and instruments and transportation and gigs? I guess it must be you or Shannon because obviously it wasn't me doing it and I won't be anymore,” Scorpius replied with cold fury.

“What do you mean “not anymore”?! You’re nothing without us! You’ll never make it by yourself! ” She cried furiously as he walked around the room collecting his music and instruments, as well as the sound equipment he had bought for the group.

“Maybe not,” he responded calmly again. “But you can’t make it anywhere without me, not with your deadbeat dad or crack head mom.” Scorpius flipped his hair over his face and walked back to the door, holding the stuff he collected leaving a flabbergasted Clarity in his wake. “I’ll be back later with a crew to get the rest of my stuff. Oh also,” he turned back to Clarity. “Don't even think of breaking any of it, you’ll be paying.” Scorpius then turned and strutted down the hallway to go get a new room in a different hotel.

~*~

The next day Albus was exhausted, he had spent the night writing a whole new song to perform all about the boy he met yesterday. Speaking of which he could see him walking toward him now. “Hey baby girl,” Albus called when Scorpius reached him.

“Baby girl?” Scorpius questioned.

“What do you not like it,” Albus asked pulling the other by his waist toward him, noticing that he had taken out his snake bites since yesterday.

“No, I like it,” Scorpius blushed and looked down.

“Well c’mon, we have to go, I’m performing soon,” Albus told Scorpius before pulling him toward the stage. When they reached it Albus gave a quick kiss to his….boyfriend? “I’m next, meet me here after?” He asked.

“Of course and I’ll be in the front row when you play,” Scorpius reassured him.

“God, we’re already one of those disgusting couples you and your single friends make fun of,” Albus joked before jogging up the steps to the stage.

He hardly ever got really bad nerves anymore but today was different, he was performing a song he had written that night he had barely gone over it after. Albus didn’t expect to win today, today was more about showing Scorpius what he already meant to him, even after just one day. He had never clicked with someone the way he did with Scorpius. His thoughts were interrupted when he was called to go on stage, he walked up to the microphone and made sure his guitar was in tune before starting to play.

“She played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar

She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar

She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic ink on your arm?

Said it was one of my friend's songs do you want to drink on?”

Albus looked into the crowd in front of him searching for the one he was singing for right now and when he found him he could see the most splendorous smile on his face. So Albus just kept singing.

“She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun

She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as shot gun

Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar

Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

With my pretty little Galway Girl

You're my pretty little Galway Girl

You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool

And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room

As last orders were called, was when she stood on the stool

After dancing to Kaleigh, singing to trad tunes

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet

Acapella in the bar using her feet for a beat

Oh I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

And in this packed out room, swear she was singing to me

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

My pretty little Galway girl

My my my my my my my Galway girl

My my my my my my my Galway girl

My my my my my my my Galway girl

Now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time

I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine

Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine

As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night

I walked her home then she took me inside

Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine

I swear I'm going to put you in a song that I write

About a Galway girl and a perfect night

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

My pretty little Galway girl

My my my my my my my Galway girl

My my my my my my my Galway girl

My my my my my my my Galway girl”

When Albus finished he realised he couldn’t see Scorpius anymore when suddenly a body slammed into his side all he saw was a quick flash of lavender hair before lips were pressed to his.

The next year the two boys returned to the festival, ready with two songs, each one about the other.

“You ready baby girl,” Albus asked his currently cotton candy blue haired boyfriend.

“As I’ll ever be,” Scorpius replied, messing with the red chunks of hair he had convinced the other to dye. Albus pulled him into a quick kiss as they heard the announcement.

“We present to you! Constellation Dreams!”

And for the first time officially, Albus Severus Potter and Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy walked onto that stage as a group. Set to Win.

[faekieren]

drarry recs!

this is by no means a definitive list! as a disclaimer, I read some of these over a year ago and they may vary in quality, but I liked them all. fics by the same author are all clumped together but this is in no particular order. i have big preferences for certain authors. faves are bolded. super faves are italicised and bolded. under the cut because this is very long

Another Mask Behind You by lettered

“Draco is a high-end prostitute who hides his identity. Harry unknowingly hires him. And then there is porn, questions about identity, domestic bliss, more porn, and truth as seen through a web of lies. (And then more porn. Seriously, if you don’t want sex scene after sex scene you probably shouldn’t read this. And please read the warnings.)”

The Fall of the Veils by lettered 

“This is the fic where Muggles find out about wizards, wars are fought, Apparition is abolished, political conspiracies abound, Draco is asexual, and Harry has Legilimency sex with him.”

The Pure and Simple Truth by lettered

“Harry, Draco, and Hermione go to a pub. Harry, Draco, and Pansy go to a pub. Harry, Draco, Pansy, and Hermione go to a pub. Harry, Draco, Hermione and Ron go to a pub. Harry, Draco, Hermione, Ron, and Pansy―you guessed it―go to a pub. I could go on. In fact, I did. Harry, Draco, Hermione, Pansy, Ron, Blaise, Luna, Goyle, Neville, and Theodore Nott go to a pub. In various combinations.”

No Other Superstar by lettered

“Draco is sort of fucked up. Harry is sort of fucked up and really really famous. Together they fight crime! Not in this fic, though. In this fic they have sex.”

The Bound Prince by slashpervert

“In HBP, there is a pivotal moment where things could have gone very differently for Harry and Draco. In the bathroom sixth year, Draco is upset that Harry has caught him crying and throws a hex. It escalates and ends in blood, with Harry nearly killing Draco by accident. In this story, instead, unvoiced attraction to Harry motivates Draco to take a chance and kiss him. Once sparked, their mutual desire and exploration becomes the driving force in the alternative ending to the series. Draco's "mission" from Voldemort turns out to be more complex than that presented in canon and their solution even more difficult.”

This is just shy of a million words if you want something to really get into! Be warned that it is emotionally devastating at parts, and you could stop reading after the first fic in the series.

Simulacrum by slashpervert

“Draco sends a gift to Potter and finds himself in a difficult but erotic position.”

This ridiculous magical sex toys smut and nothing else but I love it jkdjdnfjkasl

To Give Everything by slashpervert

“Draco finds The Room, a torture chamber in the Hogwarts dungeons and longs for someone to submit to him. Harry finds he needs that and more.”

After Hours at the Ministry of Magic by birdsofshore

“It isn't precisely how Harry planned to spend Christmas Eve: trapped in a lift with his ex-boyfriend, somewhere between the third and the fourth floors of the Ministry of Magic.”

Higher and Higher (Temptation) by birdsofshore

“Only Harry Potter could manage to put on a magical collar on impulse and find himself unable to take it off again. Now following Draco’s direct orders gives him intense pleasure, and Draco has a whole heap of troubles to deal with, not least the way Potter looks when the collar has him gasping with bliss. The whole situation would test the morals of a saint... and Draco’s no saint.”

I Bet That You Look Good on the Dancefloor by birdsofshore

“Harry felt lit up from inside as soon as he entered the bar. There were blokes dancing together, their bodies close to one another, not keeping a wary distance as Harry was always careful to do when he was near another man. God, he wanted this – wanted it so much he could taste it, a metallic tang of heat and desire. He suspected nothing would ever be the same again – especially when he saw who else was in the room.”

One Night at the Leaky by birdsofshore

“Harry should have known better than to accept a drunken dare. Especially when Malfoy was sitting right there, looking like that and wearing those bloody tight trousers.”

Hungry by birdsofshore

“The first thing Harry knew about it was when he woke up lying on a bed in the hospital wing, with his arm firmly stuck to the scrawny, milk-white arm of Draco bloody Malfoy.”

All Life is Yours To Miss by Saras_Girl

“Professor Malfoy's world is contained, controlled, and as solitary as he can make it, but when an act of petty revenge goes horribly awry, he and his trusty six-legged friend are thrown into Hogwarts life at the deep end and must learn to live, love and let go.”

Saras_Girl’s Fluffy!verse

this is just a lot of fluffy oneshots! they’re mainly under 10k and I’ve noted where they get longer. my personal favourites are:

Code-Cracking For Gryffindors 

Hermione Granger and the Case of the Cherry Blossoms

Rainfall

Talk to Me (15k)

The Haunting (10k)

Turn by Saras_Girl

“One good turn always deserves another. Apparently.

This story contains some het, a lot of slash, some epilogue-friendly stuff and a lot of AU. It is vaguely inspired by the film ‘The Family Man’ but in reality, is a variation on a concept that is, quite frankly, well old. I implore you to just trust me and enjoy the story.”

On a Clear Day by Saras_Girl

“Draco Malfoy is waiting for his real life to begin, and it appears that he’s not the only one. Coffee, charity, and the wisdom of the elderly.

This is a post-war, feature-length oneshot told entirely from Draco’s point of view. It is canon-compliant through DH but obviously disregards the epilogue. [What epilogue?]”

just. draco sings the smiths??? and i cried

Salt on the Western Wind by Saras_Girl

“When the war isn’t quite as over as it first appears, a guilt-ridden Harry is sent to a mysterious safe-house. Among sandwiches, insomnia, and Mills & Boon, he discovers something quite unexpected. [Smoochfest 2012]”

Frost on a Park Bench by Saras_Girl

This is Draco's park. Harry Potter has no business being here.

Reparations, Foundations & all that follows by Saras_Girl

“Harry is about to discover that the steepest learning curve comes after Healer training, and that second chances can be found in unexpected places.

When one door closes, another one opens – with a bit of a push. Life, love and complications.”

my favourite favourite thing I’ve ever read is probably Còmhla, the very last fic of this series, but don’t read it without having read the rest of it 

This Summer by Saras_Girl

“This is a summery romantic comedy featuring my favourite ensemble cast, in which Harry is confused, Draco is Draco, and Hermione attempts to eat all the things.”

Big Dick, Come Quick (pdf or epub) by calanthe

“Draco’s got a theory. About sex. And after much searching for the right candidate, it appears that only Harry Potter, his life long enemy, can help him test it out.”

The Logic of Dreams by Frayach

“J.K. Rowling meets Philip K. Dick. War hero Harry Potter suddenly finds himself guilty of a murder he hasn’t committed of a man he has never met. And worst of all, he has no means of confronting his accusers, all of whom are former Death Eaters. Could this be a set-up? Or something even worse? Loosely based on the short story The Minority Report”

On the Couch by Frayach

“It’s a Mind Healer’s worse nightmare to lose a patient to suicide, but Mind Healer Nick Nichols can attest to the fact that a murder/suicide is even worse. If only Dr. Freud had come up with a sure cure for love.”

it feels weird but trust me

let me see you stripped (down to the bone) by traintracks

“"So," Malfoy said. "Are you in? Or are you out?" He turned and looked at Harry squarely. Harry remembered the slow way Malfoy had slid his hand down his own stomach, into his pants – the outline of his long fingers gripping and stroking his own cock. The way his head had fallen back, exposing his pale throat. How he had owned them all. He took a deep breath. "I'm in," he said.”

Harry Potter and The Sexual Awakening by jrayoh23

“Harry Potter gets outed by Rita Skeeter in a recent Daily Prophet article and decides to take matters into his own hands. He decides to write a tell-all that everyone wants, the story of how he came to terms with his sexuality. What no one, especially Draco Malfoy, expects is this book doubles as a love letter to someone Harry calls, L.B.

In the midst of being assigned to read and review Potter's new book, Draco realizes that some of the stories Potter tells in his book seem a little too familair. Thus, bringing up old feelings about the man.”

Light as Iron, Singed as Pearl by Snegurochka

“The owner of the elite BDSM club M. had not gained his reputation as the most coveted Dominant on the scene by taking on just any riff-raff submissive who asked. It would take an unexpected letter to convince him to accept a new client, but it might turn out to be the biggest mistake he ever made.”

The Hogwarts Rebellion by Lumelle

“When someone apparently casts an enchantment upon Hogwarts that causes hearts to float around in the air whenever someone is near a person they have a crush on, it seems like a harmless enough thing.

Of course, this only holds until it hits a Potter and a Malfoy. After that, things get interesting.”

okay so this is technically a scorbus fic but it’s the cutest, fluffiest thing I’ve ever read and there’s some drarry and i love it

Double Take by kcstories

“The Yule Ball didn't go according to plan. An intrigued Draco follows a desolate Harry into a hidden room. Things will never be the same again. (An alternate take on Harry's fourth year).”

Side-Along by lumosed_quill

“If this wasn't a curse then it was Hell. Because surely, in Hell, all roads would lead to Harry Potter's living room.”

How to Handle an Enemy & Turnbout Is Fair Play by who_la_hoop

“Everyone knows that it's no fun playing truth or dare with a Slytherin. But add a little Veritaserum, a scheming duo of Slytherin girls and surprising things can be revealed. Particularly about the fine line between love and hate…

After a – cough – revealing game of truth or dare instigated by his fellow Slytherins, Draco Malfoy finds himself in possession of a). the interesting knowledge that a certain Gryffindor horror may not be as immune to his personal charms as hitherto suspected and b). the password to the Gryffindor Tower. But Draco makes a fundamental error when he decides to make use of these facts...”

The Potter-Malfoy Problem by who_la_hoop

The room of requirement's gone mad — at least, that's what Harry thinks. There's no way that Draco Malfoy 'requires' him, of all people, but why does it keep dragging Harry there like he's some kind of furniture, every time Malfoy enters it? Throw in Pansy the pervert and a clipboard-wielding Hermione, and things can only go from bad to worse. And that's not even mentioning the pirates...

there are plently of good fics by the authors included in this list but i’ve not got around to reading them all so have a look if you need new fics! i don’t often stray from ao3 so if you have recs from elsewhere please lmk!

i have read some straight up weird, kinky, and/or angsty fics but i didn’t feel like including them here, message me if you’re interested! i feel like i’m definitely forgetting some fics, so I’ll be coming back to edit this
