More recs
My favorite thing about Smutty_claus is the new pairings I'm introduced to. This batch of recs has pairings I might never read otherwise. There are many more over there, as well, that I haven't got to yet, that look really interesting. Give some of these new pairings a chance, and I think you might be pleasantly surprised!
The Mooncalf and the Quibbler by Anon, at smutty_claus: NC-17; Luna/Zacharias; 19,000 words; After losing his temper to a series of provocations, a very reluctant Zach is sentenced to doing community service at The Quibbler.
One of my favorites, so far. Really lovely. Luna is human in ways very rarely seen in fic, and Zach is awesome. This is a slow, coming together fic (my favorite kind!) and it completely sucked me in.
Ride the Drafts in Empty Bedrooms by Anon, at smutty_claus. Snape/Narcissa; NC-17; 3000 words; Severus is well aware that some of his housemates tend to turn to the liquid comfort of Firewhisky and gin after being so totally rejected; it is now his turn to turn to the sweet assurances of liquid luck.
The writing in this is really beautiful, and I love love love Narcissa's character.
Candles For Remembrance by Anon, at smutty_claus. George/Angelina; NC-17; 4000 words; A year after Fred’s death, George and Angelina spend a night together, even though neither one of them has fully dealt with his loss.
I especially like how adult this is, with people making mistakes and no easy answers. Wonderful!
Shaped by the Places We Inhabit by Anon, for smutty_claus: Katie/Draco, Katie/Viktor; NC-17; 3,800 words; Moving completely through your life makes you whole. . .so they say. For some people it’s just a short trip back to where they started.
This a surprise favorite fic so far this year. I love how... straightforward and honest with herself Katie is in this. I also really like the style of this. I have a confession to make in that I often skip over porn in stories (I KNOW.), but this was really hot and not too much! Wonderful.
