For fuck sake, stop stabbing my heart like this with that eyes of urs

[agaegoth]

True.

#i had both my teachers looking bewildered while oversharing my life to them.

#it was fun

#it makes sense now

as a gay person my self-confidence is inherently linked to the amount of validation i get from my english teacher

[agaegoth]

is this a crush? is this a squish? is this gender envy? is this aesthetic attraction? is this romantic attraction? is this sexual attraction? what the heck is this? i guess we’ll never know

[agaegoth]

I would most definitely start studying chemistry if it was written in a fanfic way.I just know I will remember it forever.

Somebody help me study chemistry 😭

[agaegoth]

THIS

Ace culture is being simultaneously both touch starved and touch averse and not knowing what to do with it

[agaegoth]

Just Like the First Time.

[agaegoth]

Loving yourself is(should not be at leas)not a trend ,it's not as easy as seeing someone attractive and falling head over heels for them.because most of the times the way you see yourself is not the same way as you see someone else , u don't have the innate capability to look at yourself and go "damn, he/she/they are sooo cool and wonderful and amazing ,I am literally obsessed with him/her/them" and to reach that level , it takes time ,it takes patience , it takes a lot of work .

But let me tell you one thing ,loving yourself for who you are and loving yourself for who you were and knowing that you moved on from the past you to be the present you and letting yourself enjoy your current selves and allowing yourself to grow into a better and new you..it all comes from accepting yourself and loving yourself just the way you want someone to love you or you would like to love someone.

And this form of love ,it's not just a feeling, it is an energy that circulate in all parts of your body which even radiates from you, your vibrations increase and you becomes a better version of you without even realizing it.

Being in a body for as long as you know and owning a soul and a personality and yet not knowing anything about you or how to deal with yourself is not how you should live.

Also to love someone else ever in your life , you should first accept and enjoy your own company and let yourself grow and explore and make mistakes, don't be harsh on yourself and moniter your inner voice and correct it if it's being negetive and eventually mold out a positie inner voice that encourages and empowers you to flourish. And thus you will see a very different person when u look at the mirror.

And hon,this is so not a thing u do within a week,it is a process and switching from any mentally draining situation you are in right now to straight up making a routine and working on yourself,that's too harsh on you.. Acknowledge whatever you are feeling.Thats how u begin

If u read until here, wow,proud of youu 👏u did a big job in learning.You took time to learn.Now slowly put into into practice. You will definitely won't regret it ☺️

[agaegoth]

Darling, you are what my mind cannot put into words. my words ,they are trembling helplessly in your presence.

[agaegoth]

Do u reckon listening to songs which clenches your heart and it aches and bleeds with ecstacy and it is pumped through every veins and arteries.

you have fallen for this song, you have immersed yourself into every second of it and would relive in that moment any number of times.

Like your heart cannot take that much amount of happiness just from listening to a wonderful mix of tunes and lyrics and instruments..

It's just a feeling in itself I live for.

[agaegoth]

Hi, this is very random but I'm actually writing a dissertation on Harry Potter Fanfiction and I'm looking for the 'big' fics, i.e. fics that lots of people in the fandom read - the most popular/famous ones that might even have their own sub-fandom (All The Young Dudes for example). Do you know of any Drarry ones like this? Thanks in advance!

What a wonderful topic for a dissertation @realistic-but-optimistic - I would LOVE to read it if you ever publish/want to share. And I definitely have some recs for fics that have their own mini fandom and/or are ‘The Drarry Classics’

What We Pretend We Can't See by @gyzym [131k words]

Seven years out from the war, Harry learns the hard truth of old history: it’s never quite as far behind you as you thought

This is THE fandom classic almost everyone has read and talks about. It features a redeemed, slightly obsessive, charming Draco. Grimmauld Place plays a huge role in the fic and Ron/Hermione are wonderful. Overall 10/10.

Running on Air by @tinyhistory [75k]

Draco Malfoy has been missing for three years. Harry is assigned the cold case and finds himself slowly falling in love with the memories he collects.

I genuinely do not know if any fic rec can do justice to this masterpiece. It’s so beautiful and poignant and somehow nostalgic. The language, the plot, the pining and the mystery are all breathtaking. You have to read this one yourself to believe me. This is definitely a major fandom classic.

Tea and No Sympathy [70k] by who_la_hoop

It's Potter's fault, of course, that Draco finds himself trapped in the same twenty-four-hour period, repeating itself over and over again. It's been nearly a year since the unpleasant business at Hogwarts, and Draco's getting on with his life quite nicely, thank you, until Harry sodding Potter steps in and ruins it all, just like always. At first, though, the time loop seems liberating. For the first time in his life, he can do anything, say anything, be anything, without consequence. But the more Draco repeats the day, the more he realises the uncomfortable truth: he's falling head over heels for the speccy git. And suddenly, the time loop feels like a trap. For how can he ever get Harry to love him back when time is, quite literally, against him?

If you like Groundhog Day style fics, this is the winner! It has over 32k kudos on AO3 which is INSANE! It’s super well written and keeps you hooked until the very end. And it’s not just this one, every fic by this author is a classic in its own right. Especially ‘written on the heart.’

Right Hand Red [73k] by @lqtraintracks​

Harry felt Malfoy's breath on his lips as they came together over the bottle, hands firmly planted on the floor as though they each needed their familiar soil, refusing to cross into enemy territory.

Except that Malfoy no longer felt like his enemy.

Malfoy felt inevitable.

No rec list can be complete without an eighth year fic. The fandom is FULL of eighth year fics and they’re perfect for anyone craving a Harry Potter continuation but with Drarry. This is one of my absolute favourite ones. It features a lot of party games and it’s really nice to see Harry and Draco have a chance at a normal school year for once, something they’ve been robbed of for so many years. There’s a lot of pining and healing in this one and I felt all the feels when I read it. 

Away Childish Things [151k] by @letteredlettered

Harry gets de-aged. Malfoy has to help him.

This one. This one. THERE ARE NO WORDS BUT I WILL VALIANTLY ATTEMPT. I love it. It explores Harry’s childhood in a way very few fics have managed to and it really really tugs at the heartstrings. It’s gorgeously written and evokes so many emotions. Please read this one.

Stop All the Clocks (This Is the Last Time I’m Leaving Without You) [44k] by @firethesound

Living with Draco was difficult; living without him is unbearable. But if there’s one thing Harry learned from the war, it’s that even when one life ends, the rest of the world goes right on living.

Full disclosure- I haven’t read this and I don’t know if I ever can. It features MCD (main character death) and I really struggle with reading fics that don’t have a happy ending. Having said that, it is a fandom classic and everyone who has read it, RAVES about it. They say it’s gorgeous and beautiful and devastating. What I can confirm is that firethesound is an amazing author and I have read several other fics by them which could also be considered fandom classics. Especially ‘All Our Secrets Laid Bare’ which is the ultimate Auror partners fic and ‘A Convenient Impracticality’ which is the ultimate fake dating/friends-with-benefits fic. 

Dwelling [83k] by aideomai

Curses, James and Lily Potter ride again, several Ministry balls, a teenage Summer of Love, a grim young adult dystopian winter, a few different Draco Malfoys, secrets and the problems re: not having any, alternate lives, impossible lives, real lives, allusions to Dirty Dancing, and just because it's not called the Mirror of Erised doesn't mean you shouldn't know better.

Oh my goodness, this fic ruined me. In the best possible way. If you want a glimpse into how Harry’s life could have been if his parents had been alive and if Harry and Draco had been friends from the start, this is the one. There's a huge twist which makes the fic EVEN better. I don’t want to spoil too much but this one is worth a read. Another fic by the same author, ‘Far From The Tree’ is also gorgeous. It’s a newer fic so I wouldn’t say it’s a classic yet but the plot is SO unique. It features Harry’s grown up kids coming back into the past and how that could affect Harry/Draco’s relationship. All the characters are super well written and it’s one of my personal favourites!

Other notes:

I made a Drarry rec list when I first got into the fandom. I would say almost all the fics on this list are also classics/very well liked. 

Another great way to find classics are through this link. They are Drarry fics on Ao3 (30k+ words) sorted by the number of kudos they’ve received. I would say all fics on the first five pages can be considered classics. 

Here are three other SUPER adored authors in the Ao3 fandom: Bixgirl, Saras_Girl and GallaPlacidia

All works by Bix and Saras_Girl are considered classics. GallaPlacidia started writing for the fandom only a couple of years back but she has such a knack for writing both these boys, it’s absolutely insane. I’m 100% confident her fics will be considered classics in a few years! Especially ‘The Bucket List’ and ‘Ship of Theseus.’

Enjoy and hope this helps!!
