Summary: Twelve years after the war, Draco is a successful organ tuner living in London, but he is still burdened by the effects of the war. Dark magic left him with a crippled body and, he sometimes worries, an empty heart. By chance he spots Harry in Muggle London, and the old feelings he once had for him rush back. When mutual friends express concern about Harry, it prompts Draco to seek him out. Draco is surprised but intrigued by Harry's interest in prophecy and seers, and he finds himself falling for Harry all over again. The only problem is figuring out if Harry could possibly return his feelings.
Warning(s): Permanent Injury [disability]
I love stories when Harry and Draco are kind of broken after the war. It's something I can't get enough of.
In this fic it's been many years after the war, Draco is an organ tuner, a really good one, and Harry, well, Harry is trying to find his own path. But you see, Harry is still having problems coping with life post-war, and amazingly enough, it's Draco, with all of his own problems, the only person who seems can get to him.
I loved the complex characterisations of both Harry and Draco, the unexpected friendships and revelations. It just keeps surprising you, you know? It's a lovely read.
(As a note, there is no sex on screen per se, but it's heavily implied bottom!Harry.)
