#percival x credence

[unrequitedfate]

I'm on a classical music kick and the thought of Percival, a conductor, hiring Credence, a violinist, to give a freshly written piece a try.

Let's just say they butt heads because Percival hears it one way, the way his written it and Credence is reading and playing it differently than excepted.

Credence is told to replay it too many times, growing frustrated with ever 'start over'. He does his best to play the expectation but after some of the hairs of the bow start breaking is when he can't see the point of it all. The continuously breaking the hairs is far too much of an expense to replace.

Credence begins to protest the continuation, but Percival is hardheaded when it comes to his works. Saying he'll replace it if he continues to play for him.

Did Percival expect to hear his work? Yes. Did Credence play it correctly? Who knows. There's something about the way Credence plays that he finds intriguing. After the fifth restart, Percival notices that annoyance building up. Somehow, it becomes a game to him to just see what he can bring out of Credence.

As excepted, far too many hairs have broken by the time they finish. Credence is handed an envelope of what his owed before Percival is leaving. Yeah, it's pretty quiet between them as they leave. When Percival is nowhere to be seen, Credence opens envelope to check. He's certainty paid with an extra that could repair his bow nearly three times. In the back is a note with three words, 'till next time'.

Bookbinding (2 copies) of This Thing of Darkness by @maggieandthedragon, spring 2023.

This Thing of Darkness (Fantastic Beasts, Percival Graves x Credence Barebone) is a serious but hopeful look at the difficulties of helping someone face depression, whether it be for intervening in a crisis or the providing support in the long slog of continuing to get up every day. People are messy and difficult, but it is good to be together. As dark as it might be, we can receive help, and sometimes the help we offer each other is the most important thing in the world. It's no wonder this is one of the most popular works in the pairing tag. Recommended also for compelling side characters and interesting magic system additions.

-------------------------------About this project under the cut

This is one of the first fanfics I bound for myself when I started ficbinding last year. TTOD is one of my top ten favorite fics of all time and when I realized I could learn to do typesetting and bind fics I immediately knew I wanted to make a hard copy of this novel. My personal copy has a different spine because it’s part of a matching set of my favorite Percival x Credence fanfics; the set is almost complete.

Materials: text laser printed on archival paper; Italian rayon bookcloth, purple batik-pattern cotton backed with handmade wood pulp paper, bookboard, PVA glue, cotton cheesecloth used as mull. Stitched with cotton thread, beeswax, and linen tapes, plus embroidery thread and hemp cord for the endbands. Endpapers are marbled Italian paper by London-based artist Stephan Parenti (Peacock Paper studio) which I got on Etsy specially for this binding because I wanted it to be fancy.

I learned how to stitch endbands for this book as well. The bindings aren't perfect but I’m still quite pleased with the result. The whole time it’s been on my bookshelf I keep looking at it and going heehee I made a book ✨✨✨✨ Author copy has been mailed to maggiedragon.

I keep having this thought since the revelations in FB3.

What if the reason Albus feels so guilty is that he thinks his family is cursed or something? First Ariana’s attack, then his father’s imprisonment, his mother’s death, his brother’s loss, and what happened afterward (to not spoil too much)…

What if he thinks the Dumbledores are cursed? What if he thinks this curse somehow affected his relationship with Gellert? What if it is the very reason why they parted ways, why they can’t love each other freely and just be happy together? All because of his own family…?

Bookbinding of L'Ombre de ton ombre by windfallswest, Dec 2023.

L'ombre de ton ombre (Fantastic Beasts, Percival Graves x Credence Barebone) is another of my favorite Fantastic Beasts fanfics. It is a novel-length work that deals sensitively with the characters' experiences of grief, depression, and healing. The story has a strong visual element, with the setting and landscape playing a prominent role in the story: the landscape is beautiful and isolated, which fits appropriately parallels the characters' slow process of learning how to live again and appreciate beauty, while emphasizing the difference between being isolated in your struggles and being companionably alone with someone. Treating mental illness is often a long haul, and the structure and resolution of this story addresses that fact with a balance of frankness and optimism.

About this project under the cut.

The gorgeous endpapers are marbled paper by Brazilian artist @renato-crepaldi. Since the landscape is important to the story, I specifically wanted endpapers that reminded me of the Australian badlands. I literally looked for months until I saw this paper before finishing the book. I was so pleased with this!

I'm honestly not entirely convinced by the pinkish tone of the cover, but I made this book to be part of a set of four, and I do think it matches nicely with the others in the set (here's another one of the four).

The frontispiece art is an edited version of J.J. Audubon's illustration of gyrfalcons. Yes, bird guy Audubon. I love this falcon illustration and falcons play a symbolic role in the text, so it was a great excuse!

Materials: Textblock is archival paper, laser printed text, marbled endpapers, with linen and beeswax stitching, reinforced with cotton cheesecloth as mull. Sewn endbands are cotton embroidery floss. Covers are Italian rayon bookcloth (spine) and hand-dyed cotton batik backed with handmade wood pulp paper (ink-like cover pattern). Cover lettering is machine-cut metallic heat transfer vinyl. The case is constructed of archival bookboard, handmade wood-paper, cotton rag paper, and PVA craft glue.

The theme of the month is "April Showers"! For Week Three, I present: watersports. You'll also find several guest recs from the one and only @the-starryknight, identified by the 💧 emoji!

Next week will be... Drizzle Fest works, a two-parter! Have a rec you think belongs on this list? Send me a DM! Check out last week's post, showers, here. Recs are Drarry unless otherwise noted.

Due to the nature of this rec list and not wanting to squick anyone out, everything’s below the cut. I thought I was squicked by this trope and then I read one of the fics I rec below, so if your interest is piqued... just saying. DL, DR!

💛 Subatomic by @earlybloomingparentheses // E // 22K // Wolfstar // tenderness, daddy kink, talking dildos, hurt/comfort... it's all here, folks. SO GOOD.

Remus cried out. The sensation was so strange. He squirmed. He didn’t know what he felt as Sirius lapped at his cock, his impossible, stubborn cock. He wasn’t sure he was turned on anymore, just wound so tightly he was crying a little with the need for release. It was a kind of release he couldn’t have named, though, not the bright burst of orgasm but a shameful rush he was so afraid of he couldn’t let it go.

💛 Burned Silk, Buckled Leather by @ruinsplume // E // 12K // Sirius/Draco // ooooh this was so, so good. just two broken men trying to open up to each other. sweet and dirty.

“Daddy sees you,” Sirius murmurs. “You’re so brave to let me see you like this.”

💛 Heart and Soul by @shiftylinguini // E // 12K // Wolfstar // this is like... smut CONFESSIONAL. easily one of the hottest fics ever, the dirty talk and the intimacy and their inability to hold back with one another? man oh man. no on-screen waterworks, by the way, just discussions of. doesn't make it rate any lower, trust me.

“I want you to...mark me,” he says again, grinding his hips against Remus, “oh god, like territory,” he whispers, hot against his ear. “Mark me like I'm your territory.”

💛 Wonderful Electric (Cover Me in You) by @lqtraintracks // E// 10K // this is the fic that changed my mind about watersports. enough said?

He faces away from me for a long moment. Long enough that I approach him. Before I can lay my hands on him, he says, “I didn’t know I wanted that. You knew I wanted that.”

💛 To Me You Are the Sea by @marguerite26 // E // 8K // Scarry // this fic encompasses all of the goodness of a secret relationship - the pining, the jealousy, the incredible smut, a satisfyingly sweet ending. so, so good.

"Harry." He was hard, aching. But he couldn't do this. Harry was going to ask more and more and poke at him until he broke. He was not in his right mind and the pressure in his bladder was excruciating. He squirmed beneath Harry's grasp, twisting away and reaching for the door handle. "Harry, please."

💛 Alabaster by @slytherco // E // 6K // the quiet intimacy, the trust and vulnerability between these two is just nailed in this fic. yes, it's mostly smut, but it's lovely, endearing, honest... I could go on and on. one of my favorites I've read recently.

If perhaps, it’s how Draco helped create a space where Harry can indulge in this foreign sensation without explicitly saying he would maybe enjoy that, if his wide-eyed lust comes from sheer, unforeseen discovery or some kind of premeditated gratification where Draco’s playing blindfolded chess and getting it right on each move.

💛 Float by @shiftylinguini // E // 4K // the quiet urgency, the tenderness and acceptance of how Draco and Harry fall into each other in this fic is so FUCKING SPECIAL. love love loved this one.

The relief―the relief is so much, a giddy release of pent up pressure, starting in his middle and puddling in his balls and pouring out of him in a glorious yellow stream. He can't think beyond it, for a hot and heady moment, until he looks down and sees―feet. Feet which recoil, quick as if burned. Feet which belong to a person in a tub, a tub full of warm water, which Harry is currently pissing into.

💧 Sports Star by @moonflower-rose // E // 4K // “The first half of this fic builds tension as effectively as Harry's desperation grows, keeping me on the edge of my seat. I was so eager to see what would happen -- and enamored with how it all -- er -- came together. This one's a scorcher, full of Moonflower's brilliant prose, fantastic sense of humour, and blistering smut." -starry

“Hell of a post-game ritual, Potter.”

💛 Stream and Scent by @anaxandria-writes // E // 4K // NottPott // ok. alpha/alpha ✅ this fic is... hedonistic. it's feral. the push/pull between these two, the topple for dominance, the marking and claiming aspect? my goodness. Incredible.

Harry smelled of him.

💛 Waiting Under Vain by @supergrover24 // E // 4K // Harry/Teddy // this pairing makes this trope feel extra illicit. quick build up, doesn't take much to push Harry over the edge. fiyahh.

He's not sure where this particular perversion came from, since it's certainly not something he's done before, even though he's wanted to.

💧 Coming on Stream by @maesterchill // E // 2K // “This came up in a conversation about this kink -- I'd never read it before but knew how much I love M's writing. And I wasn't wrong! It's a fabulous fic, rich in characterization, with a brilliantly composed dynamic between Draco and Harry as they negotiate their nervousness together." -starry

He knew it was a bit weird, even at the time. But it was something he could enjoy alone, something he could control, something the Dursleys couldn't touch. And, damn it, it felt good . Why shouldn’t he have this one thing? Those moments of intense pleasure were small, bright points in his sunless existence and he wasn’t going to give them up.

Art and Podfics!

💛 Come for Me by @frayach read by @mab-speaks // E // podfic, 3 hours

He watched hungrily as the wetness began to spread . . . it was like Draco was coming – only better.

💛 Not-So-Werewolfy Traits by @anaxandria-writes read by @greenmegsnoham // E // podfic, 3 minutes

You look up at me through your eyelashes as a rivulet traces down your temple, your grey eyes hazy with arousal and love.

💛 Relax, My Boy by @gradencecolezra // E // art // Credence Barebone/Percival Graves

fantastic beasts fanart from December, yes I know, I’m on top of things when it comes to posting on time

[huymadovan]

let them reunite 

[animusignus]

Hannigram/Grindeldore AU

Soooo definitely need a Fantastic Beats AU for Hannigram!

I’m not sure how it would playout but for sure an Abigail and Credence mix-and-mash!

I MEAN....

HOW CAN THEY NOT?

Both adopted by Gellert/Hannibal to use against their greatest love, because what is love if you can not manipulate people into doing what you want? We all know the professors will not sit quietly and let them but... to spin them and watch them go is half the fun! Right?
