Chaperoning the Yule Ball -WIP

Divorced Malfoy (40) and widowed Granger (41) agree to chaperone the annual Yule Ball for their children's 4th year at Hogwarts. I kinda love writing for older versions of our childhood characters!

Excerpt: (Hermione's POV)

“I suppose I shall endeavor to be a better helicopter parent, shall I? Realistically though I’d say the odds of me learning the fine art of subtly at this point in my life to be less than zero. What if I watch out for your kid and you watch out for mine?” she asked.

“Twenty points to Gryffindor for your self awareness. Okay we can swap kids for this evening. Mine is not allowed to go into the gardens with anyone besides Albus. And he’s not to take a drink from anyone except Rose or Albus. What are your rules for Rose?”

“Wait, you’re going to allow him to go into the gardens with Albus?! Malfoy! They’ll end up snogging at the very least!” she exclaimed.

“It would be about time too. He’s wanted to kiss him for years now, though he thinks no one knows. I need for him to get on with it already so that I can stop seeing him make those ridiculous love-sick eyes at the Potter boy. But he’s not to leave the Great Hall with anyone else. Knowing Scorp like I do, he’ll end up in a kiss that he doesn’t want if he leaves with someone else. Well, except for your daughter. Neither of them are interested in each other in that way I suppose. Okay, he can leave the Hall with Rose too.”

“Kissing is just where it starts, Malfoy! If you let them go out there it won’t be long before kissing escalates to other things.”

“My goodness Granger, what on earth did you do in the Hogwarts gardens?!” Malfoy asked with a smirk and a chuckle. She rose up to the balls of her feet to get a better angle before swinging her hand at his shoulder. “Ow! Merlin’s tits woman, we’re not thirteen anymore. Stop hitting me!”

For an older version of Draco & Hermione I'm thinking of Tom Felton & Emmy Rossum

[aenyssavelaryon]

Dramione x Clintasha headcanon I don’t have time to write but has been stuck in my head all day long.

Post-war, Hermione decides to become an Auror and with her partner, Harry, they are tasked to track down the last of the Malfoys. Lucius was killed by another Auror years ago, Narcissa is in Azkaban, so they are looking for Draco. They find him, but he’s trying to take down a secret underground Death Eater group, and had to blend in with them to try and destroy them from within. Instead of killing him or taking him to Azkaban, Harry and Hermione decide to help him, and petition the courts on his behalf. Without Draco’s insider information, an uprising of old Hogwarts students might have resurrected the war that they had fought to end.

“Auror Granger was sent to kill me. She made a different call”

JUST. THE POSSIBILITIES. AGDJSJKS.

Hi, I hope you guys enjoyed the Bucky fic I posted the other day. Thank you so much for the re blogs and all the likes. I really appreciate it 😊

I'm taking fic requests atm as I have no idea what else to write. I will have a pinned list of people I will be taking requests for, and please only suggest those people, and with an idea or a prompt. Thanks 😆

[slytherinsanctum]

real life peak behind the scenes: its weird to read about Snape and Draco for months, write about them, share in their communities. 

And then one morning, troopers on your door tell you the love of your life is dead. Now you are the widow. Now you get to wonder if you could have saved them for the rest of your life. Now they are the one dead in their thirties. 

And its just weird. Life imitates art in the cruelest of ways at times I suppose.

HARRY POTTER HOT TAKES

TBH I miss jily and all the sunshine gryffindor vibes. When did we start to romanticize death eaters like evan rosier and barty crouch like NOT EVERYONE HAS A TRAGIC BACKSTORY SOME OF THEM ARE JUST EVIL. I loveee regulus with all my heart but I absolutely DESPISE jegulus. Like did y'all forget james potter was the no.1 slytherin hater?!

Also I have a bone to pick with people who write jegulus fanfics with LILY SLANDER and WHERE JAMES CHEATS ON HER (I'm coming for yall)

DRACO WAS NOT A TRAUMATIZED LITTLE BABY HE WAS A SPOILED BRAT. He's definitely not better than harry or ron in any way possible. He did not have trauma. And don't even begin to whine about him having a sadder life than harry. FYI harry was orphaned and abused by the dursleys only to come into the Wizarding world and be exploited by Dumbledore and the ministry.

I HATE DRAMIONE/HARIMIONE. That's it. Stop it.

Snape was not a good person and neither was Dumbledore. Snape did not love Lily, he was obsessed with her. Like did everyone forget that he wanted to kill james and harry just so that Lily could be widowed for him? He chose to spy for Dumbledore because it was a safe and comfortable job. Dumbledore literally saved Snape from going to Azkaban and (edits cuz im in doubt) snape also wanted Dumbledore to fire remus because of his ongoing desire to expose remus' secret despite him literally taking snapes side in hbp. " For the greater good" true, but i will forever loathe them.

Complete fics posted on AO3 this day

1. Like London to a brick by @thecouchsofa [T, 4k]

“Malfoy? Blond wanker of epic proportions. Goes around with a sour look on his face all the time. Comes up to about yay high.” Ron held his hand a few inches above the top of Harry’s head. “Ring any bells?” Harry bent down to tighten the strap on his kneepad. “Still no idea what you’re on about.” [...]

2. Lost Memories by celestine80 [M, 105k]

Harry is tired of being enemies with Draco. He has more important things to worry about. The most pressing of those being his real enemy, Voldemort, who is now at large. And then Draco starts acting suspicious and Harry wants to know the truth. He always tries to believe the best in people, but Harry is starting to wonder if there is any good left in Draco at all.

3. Sweet Nothings by cyrpustree [T, 6k]

Draco isn’t doing well and Harry notices, so follows him up to the Astronomy tower one night.

4. Want for Nothing by @syrahbat [M, 79k]

After his wife Astoria dies at the hands of a blood curse, Draco Malfoy falls under investigation; except the Auror assigned to his case is Harry Potter, and Harry Potter has a very different opinion of Draco than everybody else, including Draco himself.

5. The Witch and the Sorcerer by burningcherries [E, 50k]

The days of the great wand-wielding wizards are long gone, but under the protection of Rome's growing empire, magic hasn't entirely faded away. All humans have it, but only one type. [...] Harry, a recently widowed sorcerer, leaves his hometown with his children and his wixen friends in the hope of finding a witch available for mating further north.

I have decided to update my list and sort everything that I write for in alphabetical order so that everyone who wants to request something has an easier time overviewing everything. Additionally I have decided to add to every show a few characters I especially adore writing about so that you can do me a little favor if you desire to do so💜.

Telling the Bees by @cibeewastaken (31K, M)

Tags: Divorced Harry, Widower Draco, Kidnapping, Angst, Grief, Hurt/Comfort, Pining, Non-Linear Narrative, Friends to Lovers, Happy Ending

Harry looked as though he wanted to wrap Malfoy in his arms and never let him go again when they showed up at Grimmauld Place. Malfoy looked as though he wanted Harry to. And Ginny stood, a little ways behind them, wondering why they still hadn’t done anything about it. Harry murmured, not loud enough for Ginny to hear. Then he tugged on Malfoy’s little finger, staring at him with wide eyes. Still murmuring. Malfoy swayed, just enough for Harry to notice. Harry reached out and caught Malfoy’s hands, brought them to his chest, pressing it right where his heart was. Ginny had never seen apologies done so lovingly before, like it was a confession instead. She left them by the front door and went to make tea. It was almost an hour before Harry came into the kitchen. He hugged her, and it was nothing like the tug of a finger he gave Malfoy. It hadn’t been like that for a long time. “Thank you for bringing him back,” Harry said into her hair. Ginny sniffed. “I really did it for Malfoy,” she said. “He needs someone that loves him right now.” Harry pulled back. Stared. “I never — ” Harry paused. He looked scared. “I never told anyone.” Ginny brushed his hair from his face. “Oh, Harry,” she said. “I know more than anyone what you look like when you’re in love.”

[rewritingcanon]

you are so right. the only good Draco is a Draco who is in distress. That man should be in pain at all times..

YOU GET ME!!! he was built to be in agony!!!! no happiness for him!! i want him to be a husk that can only hold despair and temporary joys 🫶🫶

[dramioneasks]

Mind the Bump - Soap1 - E, 28 chapters - Hermione Granger and her colleague (and, though she sometimes hates to admit it, her friend) Theo Nott, are busy at the Research Institute for the Alchemical Sciences, working together on an innovative, though secretive, project that more than one person might like to get their hands on. She doesn't have much time for dating, and certainly isn't ready to think about starting a family. But after an exciting, though unexpected, one-night stand, she finds herself pregnant. With Draco Malfoy's baby. As her research continues, as her pregnancy progresses, will she be able to make room for Draco in her life?

Chaperoning the Yule Ball -WIP

I'm challenging myself to write this one shot story at 10,000+ words! So far my longest one shot is a little over 8,000, and I have longer stories in the works (read: in my head lol). I want to gain more confidence with the one shot formats before I really tackle the bigger world-building stories.

This one shot has Malfoy being the world's best dad to his very gay son lol and I'm totally here for it! Happy Pride my fellow LGBTQIA+ fam ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎🩷🩵🤍🩶

Excerpt:

“OW! Dammit Granger you really do have to stop hitting me. What?”

“Look at your son, Malfoy! It’s happening! Albus laid a peck on his lips just now. Poor Scorp is frozen up and hasn’t moved for a whole 60 seconds.”

“Salazar’s saggy balls. He gets kissed by the boy of his dreams and he just freezes?! And with a kiss this public, it’s not just a kiss. It’s a public claim. Fucking hell boy, MOVE! Kiss him back!” he whisper-shouted. 

As if he could hear his father’s words from across the room, Scorpius came out of his shock and smiled the dopey-ist grin Hermione had ever seen, then proceeded to blush all the way down to his shirt collar, probably even further if she had to guess. Albus took this as the obvious “yes” that it was and leaned up to kiss him again. Scorpius leaned down to meet him halfway but overcompensated the lean and ended up kissing the boy’s chin. “Did… did he just… Merlin, he just missed! I can’t watch this anymore. Granger, tell me when he finally kisses the damn Potter boy."

[saintsenara]

I hope that you're having a lovely weekend. What do you think about Theo/Harry? We know that Theo could see thestrals that he means that he saw someone die and he is raised by his Dad (no idea what happened to his Mum). Also he is one of the few named Slytherin that appears to not be openly antagonist to HP. Also his Dad gets captured during the Order of Phoenix if I remember correctly so it makes you wonder who looked after him during this time. Also if you take Harry Potter and Cursed as canon then he is at least bright enough to make two time turners that went way beyond previous Ministry's products which is a difficult and impressive piece of magic and in JK interview she wanted to include a scene with him and show he is equal to Malfoy. Raised by an elderly widower and Death Eater and is described as a clever loner who does not feel the need to join gangs including Draco. I feel like there is something to work on.

thank you very much for the ask, anon!

the mention of theodore nott lets me dig up one of the single funniest things harry ever does, from order of the phoenix:

If anything more was needed to complete Harry’s happiness, it was Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle’s reactions. He saw them with their heads together later that afternoon in the library, together with a weedy-looking boy Hermione whispered was called Theodore Nott. They looked around at Harry as he browsed the shelves for the book he needed on Partial Vanishment, and Goyle cracked his knuckles threateningly and Malfoy whispered something undoubtedly malevolent to Crabbe. Harry knew perfectly well why they were acting like this: He had named all of their fathers as Death Eaters.

by this point in the timeline of the series, harry has spent almost five years in at least three potions classes a week, and almost three years spending at least one care of magical creatures classes with him. he might also be expected to have remembered that nott can see thestrals... and yet no recognition whatsoever. hermione has to provide the deets. he literally cannot pick the man out of a line-up.

[although, to be fair, harry does remember his name in half-blood prince... because he sits next to draco malfoy - at whom he's staring - in potions. really beating the allegations there, king...]

i am, therefore, invested in the idea of nott strutting around the slytherin common room talking about how serious his relationship is, while harry doesn't realise he has a boyfriend and/or thinks that the "harry potter's slytherin boyfriend" everyone's talking about is malfoy.
