We used to meet every Thursday Thursday Thursday in the afternoon
This is a very hodge-podgey list, as I have been very willy-nilly lately, reading-wise. Erm. Make that life-wise.
Though it is OTF=Harry Potter, for now (eyes Bluey’s Sherlock recs, for starters).
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Of Polyjuice Pilfering & Potion Perversities
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: odogoddess
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/wizard_love/128505.html
Rating: NC-17
Status: complete, one-shot
Summary:Harry & Hermione Potter really enjoy making love... as other people.
Why I fangirl this: Because the summary is super-deceptive. Sneaky like whoa. The surprise twist couple is both fantastic and fantastically satisfying. Because it’s odogoddess.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: The Beauty of Trees
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: megyal
Link:http://community.livejournal.com/hd_inspired/59997.html
Rating:PG
Status: complete, one shot
Summary: Draco requires Potter's help; to his dismayed annoyance, Potter's help entails trampling around in a forest.
Why I fangirl this: A lovely story about trees, wands, animagus and magic. Quiet and sweet without being cloying.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Broccoli and the Art of Subterfuge
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: opalish

Rating: PG
Status: complete, one shot
Summary: Harry has some rather questionable parenting methods. And he may or may not be responsible for Draco Malfoy's receding hairline. NextGen crackfic oneshot!
Why I fangirl this: Harry’s “rather questionable parenting methods” are a hoot, and I heartily approve of them. And you will, too, if you have kids (or watch them on occasion).
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Puppy Kitty Love
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: ratherbsailing
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/hp_crackdealers/15210.html
Rating: PG-13
Status: complete, one shot
Summary: When Hermione’s efforts to claim Ron’s heart go awry, she finds herself caught up in a real life catfight to win back the boy she loves.
Why I fangirl this: Because you haven’t lived until you’ve read Ron/Minerva. Yes, your eyes do not deceive you. It’s Ron/Minerva and it’s hilarious. How could it not be?
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Required Reading

Summary: Ron Weasley knows a lot about some things-including porn.
Why I fangirl this: The characterization is awesome and I’m a sucker for the Gryffindor/Slytherin betting premise.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Forgetting
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: naturegirlrocks

Rating: NC-17
Status: complete, one shot
Summary: "Did we ever sleep together?" Asked Lockhart.
Why I fangirl this: The author’s note alone got me: Damn you Angst! What are you doing in my fluffy crack?! But the last line is quite a doozy, any way you choose to interpret it.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Not Strong Enough
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: anonymous
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/dmhgficexchange/372711.html
Rating: NC-17
Status: comic, complete
Summary: Draco asks Hermione for help.
Why I fangirl this: OMG! The look on Draco’s face in part two! You’ll know which one I mean when you see it. ~fans self~ I broke my “no anonymous/currently posting fest recs” rule because of that look.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: May the Best Man Win
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: shiv5468
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/sshg_exchange/220294.html
Rating: PG-13
Status: Two Chapters, complete.
Summary: It was already the Wedding from Hell, but then Hermione is taken ill and discovers a new side to herself.
Why I fangirl this: I can’t tell you why, it would ruin the surprise if you haven’t read this. Go read it. I’ll bet you’ll know why after.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: She measures her life in cups of coffee
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: dysenchanted2
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/dmhgficexchange/355517.html
Rating: PG-13
Status: complete, one shot
Summary: She fought in the first war because she believed in it-back when she still believed in things like truth and goodness and love. She fights in the second war to survive.
Why I fangirl this: Lyrical and disjointed, this story reads like poetry or a disturbing dream. I like experimentation in style and structure -- and I love playing with the questions this piece leaves behind.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: The Evil Devil Child and the Perfect Gift
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: who_la_hoop
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/hp_cross_fest/12589.html
Rating: NC-17, liek whoa.
Status: Two chapters, complete
Summary: When Scorpius Malfoy - Legilimens-extraordinaire, perfect son and all-round kinky little bastard - discovers that his father harbours a certain fantasy involving Harry Potter, a submissive attitude and a priceless antique dining table, he sets out to make his father’s dreams come true. And if succeeding in his mission involves putting up with a naked, willing Albus Severus? Well, that’s a price that Scorpius will just have to pay.
Why I fangirl this: Oh, so wrong. So very, very wrong. Heed the warnings and try not to judge me. (I think it’s wickedly delicious and super hott).
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: But, For My Own Part, It Was Greek to Me
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: thesewarmstars (on IJ)

Rating: NC-17
Status: One shot, complete
Summary: Snape came out of hiding to find a cure for his mother, but he found something else entirely.
Why I fangirl this: I’m really fond of Harry as Healer scenarios. Both Luna and Snape’s mum sparkle in this.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Dating a Straight Boy is Weird and Creepy
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: abusing_sarcasm
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/hp_nextgen_fest/7114.html
Rating: PG-13
Status: complete, one shot
Summary: Albus is completely straight and Scorpius is completely gay, so naturally they need to go dancing.
Why I fangirl this: The best Lily Luna I’ve read - not that I’ve read much next gen, mind. Excellent banter. Boys kissing.
Saving the best (rare) rec for last:
Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Ode to Broken Things
Author/Artist/Vidder/Creator: femmequixotic

Rating: NC-17

Summary: "Krum's in town," Harry says finally. "I just thought you should know."
Why I fangirl this: This is gorgeous. And lovely. The characterization is fantastic and the story, sublime. You won’t regret reading this.
