I noticed the other day that I hadn't updated my word count file in about five fics, so I did that the other night. Then
kaalee posted her
rec-yourself post again, and I started thinking about the stories that I've written and so forth, and the result is that, although I should put my cold to bed, I'm posting.

will somehow manage to get past the Harry/Ron, but only for you

Bittersweet -- oh, I loved this. It's the perfect mixture of angst, intrigue, and sweetness, with such a lovely ending. The entire misunderstanding between them is so heartbreaking not just because of everything that could have been avoided but because of how realistic it is, and Malfoy's feelings about his own family only add to the heartache. I loved that Malfoy was so bold in this, what with the "we should be together now" and that Harry, bless him, is so insecure and scared about Draco leaving him (again), but he's still there in the morning! and it's lovely. And that line, about wanting Draco's soul on a silver platter? Whew. Intense.
Morning After -- how have I never read this before? LOTR and HP ( and H/D), omg! I loved it. Not just LOTR, but Faramir (who is my absolute favourite character next to Sam) and Eowyn! Draco in reading glasses is just about the sexiest image ever, and I love that Harry's clothes were strewn all about the Manor. (and he failed the character tests, poor thing ( ... )

You lovely, lovely thing! Thank you for this! This was like sitting down to a feast! Thanks for reading all these stories and for telling me what you thought! ♥♥♥♥
So, Bittersweet. I'm so glad you liked it! I'm going to say that about all of them, just so you know. :P But really, yay! I'm so glad it feels realistic to you, too. The sudden boldness was fun, particularly because it's definitely unusual for Draco to be so forthcoming about anything. And you liked the silver platter line! ♥
And then, you delicious thing, you read another one that I didn't even list here! ♥ I'm so glad you liked Morning After, too! Draco in glasses was the request from the dedicatee and I liked the idea, plus I love LotR! I love the Faramir/Eowyn romance. ♥ I also have a major thing for war-damaged!Harry for sure. :)
Memory - that was a dark place to write from. I think one of my favourite bleak moments in that is when he and Snape Apparate away (Draco, in that moment and in that place between places, suddenly yearned for the end.) - he's so ( ... )

Better Things -- oh god. ohgodohgodohgod. I was all prepared to tell you how I giggled at Ron's talk of bananas and various other groceries moments after coming, how fascinating the way you dealt with Hermione was, but then I read that sex scene with Harry and Draco and OH MY GOD. I actually took a break in the middle because it was so intense and incredibly hot that I needed to calm down. Seriously! I am such a fan of fics where one teases and tortures the other for hours to the point of incoherency, but the climax in stories like that is more often than not disappointing or just glossed over. This one, however, did not disappoint, in the least. My god. By the time I finished reading that scene, I was sated and content enough to believe I'd just come. Holy fuck. But I did like how you dealt with the end of Harry and Ron's relationship -- how they're so comfortable with each other and still love each other is very believable -- and I did like how it ended with them on their usual friendly note.

So here we come to the crux of the problem with Harry/Ron, that I just see it being rather too platonic either way. The whole fall-out with Hermione was interesting to write, and I had so much fun with Draco in this! I'm so happy that you liked this one!! I LOVE your babbling and PLEASE to be feeling free to do that any time you want to, ever again! :D
You are so very delicious! Thank you for this!! ♥♥♥♥
