Reveals have just gone up over at
hp_nextgen_fest, so it's time to claim my contribution. This may shock many of you, but I only wrote
one fic this year, and it wasn't even James Sirius/Teddy! *gasp*
Like everybody and their mother, I wrote Albus Severus/Scorpius, but, in my defense, it's a fic I've been meaning to write since last year's fest. The wonderful
this_bloody_cat actually gave me the idea during one of our chats while we were restarting the comm, and it sort of percolated and grew in the back of my mind until I could not ignore it any longer. Scorpius is not a character I generally feel particularly drawn to, so it was fun to get inside of his head for a little while. :)
Title: What You Wish For
Author:
gracerenePairing(s): Albus Severus/Scorpius, non-explicit James Sirius/Scorpius, various background pairings
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: ~16,500
Content/Warnings: Bedazzled Fusion, pining, alternate universes/realities, boys messing around with magic they really shouldn't be touching, frottage, outdoor sex
Summary: Scorpius has been in love with James Sirius Potter for years to no avail, but that's all about to change, with a little help from a
totally legal wish-fulfillment ritual. Now he just needs to get Albus on board with his plan, because Scorpius may be in love with James, but it's Albus he can't live without. Which is a totally normal thought to have about your best mate, right?
Author's Notes: Very loosely inspired by the movie
Bedazzled, which is a really fun movie, and I totally recommend. I apologise if the magical mechanics in this one seem a little hand-wavy. I did my best, but it turns out magical wish-fulfilling rituals are kind of a bitch to nail down.
Thank you times a thousand to
