This fic of mine doesn’t exactly need a repost--it’s over six years old, and far and away the most popular fic I’ve ever written by almost every statistic on AO3. BUT, my lovely, dear friend [personal profile] capitu made me this banner and it’s SO perfect and gorgeous that I figured it deserved a post of its own!


Rorschach by [personal profile] gracerene

Harry never gave much thought to Malfoy's soulmark. But that was before he caught a glimpse. Now it's all he can think about.
Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~5,500
Content/Warnings: soulmark AU, Auror partners, brief injury/mention of blood, soulmates, dirty talk, rimming, blow jobs, implied switching
Author’s Notes: This was written for [personal profile] kitty_fic for [community profile] hd_owlpost 2015!

This is essentially an EWE fic that follows canon EXCEPT that, in this 'verse, a soulmark appears on every person when they turn 17. Finding your perfect match isn't incredibly rare, but it's also not extremely common either. Because there is no guarantee that you will find your soulmate, people often think that waiting around forever for the perfect person is impractical, though most do hold out hope that they’ll meet their true match. :D

Reveals have gone up for this year’s [community profile] hd_fan_fair Sex Fair, which means I get to claim my fic!! I actually had the idea to write a Drarry Ageplay fic back in 2019 for [community profile] hpkinkfest because I wanted to really challenge myself and this isn’t a kink I tend to really enjoy or buy into with this specific pairing. But I quickly realized that in order for me to write this kink for these two in a way that worked for me, the fic would have to be much longer than I had time for. But when I saw this year’s Fan Fair theme and a prompt that worked perfectly for the idea I’d had, it seemed like fate! Super happy to have had a good excuse to write this one, and I wanted to thank everybody who gave this a read, especially as I know this kink isn’t for everybody!

True Children Still by gracerene

After years of dancing around each other, Draco and Harry have finally
begun to date, though they're taking things slow. They've got enough to
figure out as it is, and the last thing Harry needs is an unexpected
introduction to desires he's not quite ready to face.

Pairing(s): Draco/Harry, background Ron/Hermione & Blaise/Ginny
Sex Theme: Kink Exploration
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~34,200
Warnings/Content Notes: Auror Harry & Draco, developing relationship, kink discovery/exploration/negotiation, ageplay, age regression, daddy kink, D/s dynamics, Dom Draco, sub Harry, subspace, littlespace, internalised kink shaming, hand jobs, frottage, blow jobs, dirty talk, praise kink, switching, endearments
Author's Notes: I was extremely excited when I saw this year's Fan Fair theme, and I knew I had to participate! Thank you to the mods for continuing to host this fandom staple, and to the unbeatable team of wondrous humans, [personal profile] nerdherderette, [personal profile] malenkayacherepakha, & [personal profile] firethesound, who went through this fic with a fine-toothed comb! <3

Reveals have posted for this year's [tumblr.com profile] hd-hurtfest which means I can finally claim my fic!! Fun fact, I actually outlined and wrote part of this fic wayyyy back in 2015 after listening to the song Here Without You by 3 Doors Down on a cross-country road trip. I loved the idea, but at the time I just didn't feel capable of writing the fic the way I wanted to, so I put it on the back-burner and honestly never thought I'd pick it up again. Fast forward to 2020 and I'd been toying with the idea of picking this one back up when it was announced that H/D Hurtfest would be returning, and it seemed like fate! MASSIVE thanks to those of you who gave this fic a read. I know longer fic with a MCD tag doesn't tend to be massively popular and I so appreciate those of you that read and commented. ♥


It's been seven years since the end of the Second Wizarding War with Voldemort, and a new Dark Lady has taken over in nearby Ireland. Harry feels compelled to volunteer to fight on the front lines, but war is never safe, and Harry has a lot—including his blissfully happy relationship with Draco—to lose.

Rating: Explicit
Pairings: Draco/Harry, background Ron/Hermione, implied Parvati/OMC
Word count: ~26,800
Warnings/Content: war, canon-typical violence, open/ambiguous ending, major character death, non-linear timeline, flashbacks, epistolary!fic, dirty letters, an ode to Draco's bum, bottom Draco, implied switching, Harry & Parvati friendship, Auror Harry Potter, Healer Draco Malfoy
Author's Notes: Thank you so much to [personal profile] firethesound and [personal profile] writcraft for the cheerleading, brainstorming, betaing, and all-around fabulous feedback. Thanks to the mods for resurrecting this amazingly angsty fest!
