Oh I totally agree about Dumbledore/Grindelwald! I think them and their whole relationship is so interesting and I wish there was so much more to read! :D

[huldrejenta]

Aren't they just?! So many interesting scenarioes to explore. But yeah, not too much about them out there. Do you have any favourites?

[gracerene]

Honestly all I can really think of is A Fejedelem and Love in Lightning which you've probably already read. I know I went looking a few months back for some good fic, but I didn't find a ton that I loved.

[huldrejenta]

I love both of those fics ♥

I have the same experience, not a lot to find. It's a bit surprising to me, because there's so much tension and fascinating history between them.
Maybe fests like hprarefest ought to get a lot of prompts with these guys :)

Thank you for sharing your favourites!

Josephinestone writes that pairing sometimes.

[huldrejenta]

Thanks for the tip :)

[gracerene]

Yes! Love in Lightning was actually written for one of my prompts, and I think I'll probably prompt them for rare fest too. :D

So a friend of mine just recced me this Albus/Gellert fic, To Talk of Many Things, 17k, Teen rating. I haven't read it yet, so I can't vouch for it, and IDK when I'll get to it, but I thought I would pass it along! :D

[huldrejenta]

Thank you so much, that's very thoughtful of you ♥
I'll be sure to check it out!

I also warmly recommend Sharp and Bright Against a Golden Sky that starfishstar wrote for me after I posted my wishlist :)

[starfishstar]

By the way, since you were discussing this here, I checked my bookmarks for any fics about Dumbledore and Grindelwald, and these few are all I had

[huldrejenta]

Thank you so much for sharing, I really appreciate that ♥

Ooh, yes, there certainly are parallels between Albus/Gellert and Remus/Sirius before the end of PoA! A rather chilling parallel, and goodness, thinking of Remus believing what he does about Sirius, makes me feel even more badly for Albus...

[starfishstar]

I know, right?? Very, very much the same dynamic - except that Sirius turned out not to have done the terrible things he was believed to have done...and Grindelwald definitely *did* do the things he did. Oh, poor Dumbledore. I'm getting chills just thinking about it.

[starfishstar]

Oh, and there's also lots of Albus/Gellert here: Daily Snitch Special Edition: Gellert Grindelwald - includes plenty of Dumbledore/Grindelwald recs, plus a link to all of crack_broom's Dumbledore/Grindelwald entries, and a link to a "grindeldore" (ha!) comm.
...Okay, and now I'll really stop. ;-)

[huldrejenta]

No need to stop because of me, thank you so much!! I'll check it out when I get back home :) (as well as reply to the grindeldore (hah!;) mail :))
