Here's to Harry/Draco

[reserve]

DIY Messiah by scoradh  is a pretty nice thing that I just read. It is a post-DH, canon compliant Harry/Draco fic. The author's summary is "Harry stopped hating Draco Malfoy on Bring Your Kids to Work Day." What I like about this story is that Draco is a kind of destitute number-cruncher (a common end-of-series trope, it seems) and Harry is a little bit

Is yeats' fic "Late Edition"? Because I read that for the first time a couple days ago and seriously have not been able to stop thinking about it, to the point where I'm actually feeling bad about not yet leaving a comment on a fic that is like 3 years old. I don't know why I'm asking this, since you know I am actually forcing myself to finish this comment before eye-raping that list to the end of time.

ALSO, YES! scoradh! She is wonderful and a friend of mine, so in a completely superficial way this makes me very happy. On a "deeper" level, I agree 100% with your review! It's really quite a nice story.

Although, I'll admit with glee, that on some days there is absolutely nothing better than Underage Wizards Fucking, and anyone who was ever in Harry Potter fandom knows that for certain.

TRUER WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN???

I don't think that's the yeats fic. I have to go see what story it is. Speaking of, you should absolutely go and review "Late Edition" because I'm sure she'd be very flattered. YOU CAN TELL HER YOURSELF WHEN YOU MOVE HERE IN SPRING, OKAY?

PS: This is the yeats fic, and it's called Boxing Day.

Dude, I found that fic a week or two ago and I love it to bits. It's the good shit. I've just got back into HP after two years avoiding it, actually, and have been inhaling post-DH-written stuff liek woah. Anyway, these are some others I like:

Ain't No Friend Of Mine by TKP which has dog!Draco and is fucking awesome.

Squib by Kestrelsparhawk in which Harry is teaching at a school for squibs and ends up with Scorpius in his class.

you get my harry icon.

OMG I just read Squib on your rec and it was so, so good. I loved every single second of it. So much plot, and good UST, and oh shit! I just adored it. Thank you so much pointing me in the right direction. Have you read Master Work by mahaliem? It is really, really awesome. Perfect Draco-voice, "8th Year" fic. I tore through it last night, laughing all the way through.

I know what you mean about avoiding HP. This is the first time since, well, the 7th book came out that I've found myself going through hours of Harry Potter fan-fiction. My pairings are generally Snarry and Harry/Draco... the former is harder to manage post-DH. But I'm really a sucker for the entire canonical pairing list of Harry/Potter, although I will admit that I kind of think Harry belongs with Luna and Ginny and Neville belong together, but that's just me. Sometimes.

Thank you for reccing Master Work, it was so good!

Just to add my 2 cents: I've found myself doing the same thing over the last week and a half, devouring hours and hours of HP fic. I've been out of the loop for so long now, though. It's hard to trawl through the crap and find stuff that is really good. Don't suppose you've got any A++ Snarry you could rec? I'm greedy :)

Hmmm... I may have a few Snarry recs a couple of entries back? Do you have any H/D or Snarry recs for meeee? I will keep an eye out for more for you in the meantime.
