My baby is 4 years old now. Can't believe it. The best story I've ever wrote. My sweet sweet baby. To everyone out there living with HIV I send you a big hug and all my support.

Dragons Don't Know Paradise (Drarry 50k)

Today is World AIDS Day. It also is my fic Dragons Don't Know Paradise 2nd birthday. My fic about HIV+ characters, about hope and love and found family. I didin't realise in December 2020 about the massive coincidence of posting the first chapter of my 25 days of Harry and Draco fic that the 1st of December was the most perfect day to start this story. Dragons is my first long Drarry fic, and it's probably my best story. I love it so much and I'm so grateful to everyone who read, gave me kudos, love and comments.

To everyone out there living with HIV, I send you my love, my support and my respect. You will always find in me an ally against the hardship of world and prejudice. <3

Dragons Don't Know Paradise (50k, Drarry + Wolfstar)

Summary: In 2004, when Remus spends two scary weeks in the ITU due to complications of pneumonia and his HIV condition, Sirius walks around the house like a ghost and Harry finds comfort and strength in Draco through a chat in an online LGBT forum. Harry falls for him, but Draco has a lot of secrets and, before long, will need to come clean—even if he believes that no one is able to understand a dragon. This is a story about falling in love online and about facing the reality of death, but above all, this is a story about hope, finding love and acceptance.

love, tai

The love you no longer seek by @teacup-tai (1.3, M)

Tags: H/D Sudsfest 2022, Hurt No Comfort, Break Up, bathing together

His throat hurts as he laces his arms around Harry’s middle, bringing him towards his chest protectively, his legs sliding around his husband’s legs, a perfect match. And the hurt gets worse because suddenly, there, in the warmth of their bathtub, in the warmth of Harry’s body – a body he knows better than his own – he knows things are not well. There’s no way out. Not anymore. It’s too obvious and too painful to keep pretending this isn’t happening.

a different kind of sectumsempera in the bathroom for Draco and Harry. This time brimming with years of love, and yet.

hey tai. just finished reading Nicotine/Linger. wow, such a different take on pansy/hermione. I'm a bit obsessed now, wish it was longer bc, honestly, i could live inside this universe you created. can you share with us how you came up with the fic? x J.

Hello J! Thanks so much for your words and your interest in Nicotine/Linger (25K, E, Pansmione)!!! Of course I can share a bit about it with you.

So, for a really long time I'd been postponing writing a long pansmione. It's my fave wlw ship but I was completely blocked. So the @hpwlwbigbang came around and I decided I would make it happen! The first scene I wrote is not even in the fic anymore bc the plot kinda changed, but it was prompted by @onbeinganangel, she doesn't even know this. I asked for words as inspiration-prompts and she gave me a few. I started writing about them having kind of a disagrement in lil ol' Limerick, by Arthur's Quay and that was that, I decided I wanted to write a love story about them in Ireland. After this i blocked again.

Then, I went out with friends, got THOROUGHLY SHITFACED and woke up the next day in my bathroom whithout memories of what the fuck happened to me, in so much pain and had to go to the ER. I thought I broke a rib. guess what, is this scene familiar? lol

And that's how Pansy came back to me, and so did the inspiration. I didn't plot at all, I had scenes in my head and a vague idea of how I wanted the fic to FEEL LIKE. That's how I wrote it, I just let the inspiration and motivation guide me, no plot planned, no fixed idea, just loads of Limerick specific things because I felt like I needed to say my goodbyes to the idea of living there. To accept I'm not going back, so I wrote my love for the city in the fic.

Hope you enjoyed this bit of info! <3 love, Tai

READ ON AO3

Summary: Pansy has been living a slow Muggle life in Ireland for five years now. Managing her anxiety and trauma with one too many drinks, way more anonymous fucks in loos than strictly advised, wonderful Muggle friends and a job that keeps her hands busy. Life is kinda alright -though a tad bit fucked up- until she stumbles into Hermione Granger in the Muggle Hospital.

OR: This is a story about childhood enemies trying a tentative friendship far from the chaotic magical world. A tale about falling in love with the cute golden lesbian and the slow, ginger path of reconnecting with things that make you feel whole.

I'm dying. It's 3 am, I should be in bed long time ago. I didn't think I'll manage to finish this art during one day o_0 but here we are >3

Also... it wasn't supposed to be all gold. I don't know how it happened. Harry's fault or crazy witches from the magazine? Have to find it out tomorrow.

Good night!

FOUND family my ass, we built this non-nuclear family unit from the ground up, don’t devalue this!!! it was is and will be a labour of love!!!

"someone who allows you to rest" is the relationship dynamic of all time

[teacup-tai]

being a girl and hitting puberty is so traumatic. you go from being a genderless little free thing to being hit with shaving and makeup and growing breasts and skincare and menstruation and suddenly being sexualised when like a few years ago you could take your shirt off to play in the stream and trade yugioh cards with the boys and come home covered in mud and not even think about it. and then you spend years hating being a girl and hating everything puberty did to you and wishing you could be a boy or be completely genderless again and it takes you Many years to come to terms with yourself Or you simply try to Lean In to everything and do makeup tutorials on YouTube and claim it’s for fun. like how can this be treated as normal

[teacup-tai]

Hey! I recently read 'O Come, All Ye faithful' by toomuchplor which was truly amazing. Do you maybe know of more Darry fics that deal with religion/spirituality? It doesn't have to be positive as this fic was, I’m just interested as I don't see it explored often, or at all.

Thanks in advance and have a great day <3

Hi there! I’m so happy to see O Come, All Ye Faithful getting the appreciation it deserves. It is truly a brilliant moving read and toomuchplor is a fantastic author, I highly recommend going through their full catalogue. I love Drarry fics with religious themes, here are some of my favourites:

No Absolutes by @shealwaysreads (M, 400 words)

Pilgrimage by greattemptation (E, 400 words)

A meditation on sex as worship and orgasm as absolution.

In the glass I come to you by triggerlil (G, 700 words)

Draco spends a moment in an abandoned church, sees a Saint, and lights a candle. All so he can continue on a journey where he doesn't know the destination.

Amazing Grace by @potteresque-ire (G, 2.5k)

In the church at Godric's Hollow, Harry & Draco found themselves in a quest of love and belief.

For God is love by @teacup-tai (M, 3k)

1 John 4:8 But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

by which we must be saved by @hogwartsfirebolt (G, 3k)

What happened was this: the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord was born as the seventh month died. Or: the one where Harry Potter knew his whole life that he was meant to be a savior, and Draco Malfoy joined him along the way.

Absolution by @lazywonderlvnd (E, 4k)

Draco wants absolution. Harry gives it to him.

in His name by @bonesliketambourines (E, 6.6k)

Something Dark is gathering along the Camino di Francesco, and Draco Malfoy is the only one qualified to deal with it. He insists on Potter coming along. For protection, of course, no other motive—why do you ask?

Tidings of Comfort by @blamebrampton (G, 10k)

When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life. Luckily for Draco Malfoy, London has places where the tired can rest and recover.

Good Will Towards Men by @lastontheboat (T, 16k)

Harry slowly falling for his partner? Approved. Stuck in a small room together over Christmas filling out paperwork? Approved. Having an honest conversation about his feelings? Request denied.

A Multitude of Sins by cryptonym (E, 41k)

Peter 4:8 - Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

Modern Love by @tackytigerfic (E, 61k)

Harry Potter, of all people, knows that life isn’t always fair. And no one gets to be happy all of the time. But surely there’s something more—something better—than a rubbish Ministry job, and a lonely old house, and that feeling that everyone out there is doing a better job of living than Harry is.

At the End of All Things by @quicksilvermaid (E, WIP)

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are real and Harry starts dreaming of them.

Bonus:

this glorious artwork by @dragontamerdame and another one by @babooshkart, you’re welcome 😉
