Great fic with Harry struggling in the wake of an abusive relationship and escaping to the alps where Draco has been doing his own healing since the end of the war. I really enjoyed the characterizations here, and the slow and gentle way things developed between Harry and Draco. The 2nd person was really effective, and the whole thing was just lovely!

Really enjoyable read with Draco exiled from Great Britain for ten years and Harry as his assigned "parole officer" who, of course, starts to fall for him after years of meetings. I really enjoyed the characterizations here and the ending was lovely.

Title: Take These Lies
Author: PennyGalleon
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, brief Draco/OMC, background Ron/Hermione, Blaise/Oliver, Blaise/Daphne
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~19,700

But that’s not why he keeps coming back.Really wonderful fic with Draco running an underground gay bar/speakeasy that Harry, of course, manages to stumble into while glamoured.

Super hot and just an all around awesome read!

Title: The Habit of a Foreign Sky
Author: Etalice
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 20,314
Warnings/Content: unusual career, past relationship/getting back together, non-linear timeline, bottom!draco
Summary: When Harry buys an abandoned sanatorium on impulse, he can think of only one person capable of helping him with the bonding ritual: his ex, Draco Malfoy, who he hasn't seen in five years.
Really beautifully written fic with Harry and Draco reconnecting after a difficult break up years before. Harry's POV was wonderful, and I really appreciated the way both their past and present relationship unfolded. There's angst here, but the kind that feels satisfying because it's messy and real and you can feel the love of these two shining throughout the prose. Just lovely!

Title: Fearful Trill
Author: Vukovich
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, background Ron/Hermione
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~29,600
Warnings/Content: Sick Harry, Head Auror Harry, Bottom Harry, Terminal Cancer, recreational drug use, Minor Character Death, Enemies to Lovers, Hurt/Comfort, semi Public Sex, First Time, Rimming, hd-erised 2021
Summary: Harry should have come out and met someone when he was younger.  He should have seen a doctor about the pain in his hip while youth was still on his side.  Now, he's made his peace with dying young, but maybe not with dying alone.

Draco should have gotten the Kiss.  He should have died in Azkaban decades ago.  Instead, guards throw him in a Ministry lift with a dying man who could stand to live a little.
This was such a fascinating fic!! There was something... vaguely dystopian about the vibe of this fic,a kind of starkness that's hard to describe, but there was such a strong sense of atmosphere throughout the fic that worked so beautifully with Harry's somewhat fatalistic outlook and the grim yet humorous tone. The smut was seriously hot and I really enjoyed the tension between Harry and Draco and the way things slowly developed. The ending was perfection, and I adored that it's definitely a happy/hopeful ending, but it's also not a totally magical fix/cure-all. It felt quite satisfying, and this whole fic just drew me in from the start!

With his increased workload, the reappearance of the ex he never got over, the ghost that won’t let him sleep, and some curious coded diaries, it’s shaping up to be a hell of a year.
OH my goodness, I really enjoyed this one!! Non-linear doesn't always work for me but I really enjoyed the way the narrative unfolded here, showing Harry and Draco getting together in two timelines (and falling apart in the first). The build between them was wonderful and UNFF the whole thing was super hot!

He even manages to have it for a while, until suddenly there are giant rabbits that need ferrying to a mysterious island, and a handsome Draco Malfoy, and Harry's right back in the middle of the action again, despite his best efforts.This was such a lovely fic! The descriptions of food were truly mouthwatering, and I absolutely adored the idea of Harry deciding that what he really wanted for himself was to become a homemaker. The writing was great, as was the build between Harry and Draco, and the ending was wonderfully satisfying.

As a last resort, he is instructed to consult with the Department of Mysteries for potions knowledge to identify an unknown substance in the victim’s blood. But Mysteries is just that—mysterious—and he soon discovers that things are never exactly as they seem.

In which Harry and Draco solve a mystery of several different kinds.Past relationship fic don't always do it for me, but this one gave me all the feels! Harry's voice here was wonderful and I so felt for him and his deep sense of loss and heartbreak that he never really recovered from after Draco disappeared from his life. The connection between Harry and Draco here was wonderful, there was some gorgeous tension between them throughout, and the case!fic was also super fascinating and I really enjoyed the way that played out! Just a great read all around! <3

Summary: Harry wasn't expecting to ever see Draco Malfoy again. He also wasn't expecting to walk into a political conspiracy that morning either, but apparently that's exactly what the day has in store for him.
Great fic that begins a few years after the war with Harry and friends in Auror Training, until a horrible and fatal event leads to many leaving the program. Cut to a few years later when Harry's an Auror who's never entirely gotten over his loss, when he encounters Unspeakable Draco working a case and gets recruited to help. I really enjoyed Harry's voice and the characterizations throughout, and the chemistry with Draco was wonderful!

Warnings/Content: Time Loop, grief, Hurt/Comfort, blow jobs, hd-erised 2021
Summary: Who on earth decided that bringing back the Yule Ball for their eighth year would be a good idea? It feels like the worst day of Harry’s life, watching everyone get glammed up like the war never happened, like the last Triwizard Tournament wasn’t such a colossal failure.

And then it happens again. And again. And again.I enjoyed this fic so much!! The time loops was brilliantly executed and I thought Harry's voice and headspace throughout worked really well. The development between Harry and Draco worked wonderfully even with it occurring over the same repeated day, and the ending was so lovely and satisfying!

Summary: If Harry’s honest, the last thing he needs is a house full of Draco Malfoy, but partners are partners, and perhaps, the thing he wants the least will turn out to be absolutely everything.
Lovely advent fic with Harry and Draco as Auror partners both on leave due to being cursed in the line of duty, which gives them plenty of time to spend together and maybe finally act on the feelings that have been building between them for years. Sweet and gentle and heart-warming.

Despite my expectations or inclinations, it swiftly became clear that this story was going to be Sam/Dean. And, indeed, it is. Because my muse likes to fuck with me.

It also features Girl!Dean - but don't let that put you off. It's still Dean, bless him, despite the sudden girlsuit.
Suuuuuuper fabulous fic that takes place early-mid season 4 with Dean getting cursed by a witch and turned into a girl, and struggling to adjust to the changes while they figure out how to change him back all while trying to stop Lilith from breaking the seals. Dean's voice here was dead-on, and the slow build and sexual tension between him and Sam was out of this world. Interesting the way the author wove it into the season, and the ending was lovely. The fourth chapter is missing from the AO3 fic, but you can read it on their DW, which I linked above!
