hd-erised reveals & my fic
Yay, hd-erised reveals went up today. I got exactly one author right in the guessing polls, and that is exactly one more than I expected to. It's so much easier to guess artists.
I'm so glad I participated in this fest. It reminded me of everything I love about fandom and fic-writing and made me wonder why I ever stopped at all-it was because I wanted to focus on original fiction, but I think now I can do both. I just really love fandom and I've missed it desperately even while trying to tell myself I didn't. Anyway! Here is the fic I wrote, which, as is normal for me, turned out to be about 38,700 words longer than I intended it to be.
Title: Azoth
Writer: faire_weather ( zeitgeistic)
Recipient: isinuyasha
Summary: Now that Harry is back at Hogwarts with Hermione for eighth year, he realises that something’s missing from his life, and it either has to do with Ron, his boggart, Snape, or Malfoy. Furthermore, what, exactly, does it mean when one’s life is defined by the desire to simultaneously impress and annoy a portrait? Harry has no idea; he’s too busy trying not to be in love with Malfoy to care.
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 88,700 *cringe*
Warnings:
[Spoiler (click to open)]
Content/Enticements: 8th year +. Side pairings: Hermione/Millicent; Ron/Lavender. Questionable career choices, fantasy Quidditch, apprenticeships, bromance, Alchemy, Animagi, pining, a snarky portrait, boggarts, and Harry as a hot mess. There is a surplus of cats in this story. It wasn’t planned, but when are cats ever?
Author's Notes: Dear Isinuyasha: You said ‘chemistry’ and I ran with it. I hope you like this take on what I’m sure was meant to be a throwaway comment. Original prompt: here. Thank you one zillion times to the most amazing beta in the entire world, E. I am honestly astounded by how amazing she is. I can’t even put it to words. Thank you also to the mods who gave me an extra four days when I was freaking out about the ending. You guys are awesome! Happy holidays!
