1+16; Draco/Harry - for the Fanfiction Trope

1: historical AU + 16 : prison (i took some Freedom with the prison part, i hope it’s okay ^^) see notes at the end if needed

thank you for the prompt honey! i hope you’ll enjoy it ! it was fun writing it even if it isn’t that good.

@keyflight790 i started to write this before seeing your fic and i just find it too funny that we both have Harry riding fast on his horse on his way to Draco ahah

14:00. Somewhere in Versailles stables. 

“Mr Potter! Wait!” 

Harry stopped his motion but stayed half in the air, with only hisfoot on the stirrup.

“Mr Malfoy.” He greeted politely. “What can I do for you?

-My master is looking for information regarding a prisoner in LaBastille. I thought you might be able to help him.

-Is it a direct order from Monsieur?” Harry asked, startled. How couldMonsieur the King’s brother know about him? He was only one of the manysoldiers he fought with, one of the many soldiers who ended up as policemenonce the armistice signed. Plus, they were hundreds working between Paris andVersailles.

“Um… not really…” Mr Malfoy answered, slightly stuttering. If Harry hadpaid more attention, he would have noticed how his gaze had shifted from hiseyes to a point behind his ear. “But I thought you might know, or might be ableto help…

-Oh. That makes more sense.” He unconsciously added aloud. “I’m quite ina hurry, actually. But maybe we could talk later in the evening? By eight? In thetavern near Grandjean’s bakery?

-Monsieur is leaving the castle at eight tonight, could we say 8:30?

-Yeah, no prob.” And with a nod, he pushed a little on his limbs,graciously landing on the back of his horse. If he had only looked behind, hewould have seen Mr Malfoy pale cheeks turning a lovely shade of red. 

20:20. Somewhere in Monsieur the King’s brother apartment.

Draco was a mess. A ball of anxiety and raw nerves. 

Monsieur the King’s brother had only left the castle, twenty minuteslate because of something Le Chevalier had said. With his fellow valet, Dracohad witnessed the altercation and faced Monsieur’s anger before finally beingdismissed. Ten minutes later, they’ve been hastily called back. Monsieurcouldn’t leave for the theatre like this. They had to quickly dress him up andvanish every trace of his heartbroken state while easing him for the night tocome. Draco’s second valet had let the powder fall, provoking another outburst ofhis majesty ire.  

Now that the carriage had leftthe golden gate, Draco should have been able to finally breathe. But hecouldn’t. His rendezvous with Harry, no, Mr Potter, was in ten minutes, and theystill had to clean the room and replace the broken items. He was never going to be on time, and Mr Potter would never give himanother chance. 

20:45. Tavern

Harry has just asked for a second pint and there was still no sign of MrMalfoy. Harry would have like to forget about it and enjoy his night off, but ifMonsieur’s valet/first valet/confident/mistress or whatever he was finallycame, he wanted his mind to be clear. Monsieur wondering about prisonersdefinitely wasn’t an everyday business and his curiosity had been stung.

21:00. Outside of the tavern.

Draco was hardly breathing. Leaning on the wall, he was panting, tryingto recover from his run. He couldn’t meet Harry in this state. He was prettysure his hair was all messed up and he didn’t even had the time to get out ofhis working clothes. He was doom. If Mr Potter was still here, his outfit riskto be taken as a I’m-still-working hint. And if he wasn’t… 

 21:05. Tavern.

Holding his breathe, Draco had crossed the door of the tavern. He could feelthe knot in his stomach getting tighter as he scanned the room, looking for theblack hair man. He was an hour late, of course Mr Potter was gone.

“Mr Malfoy? I thought you would never come.” Said a low voice behindhim.

Turning around, Draco found himself facing the policeman. They were onlyinches apart and Draco hoped the beatings of his heart weren’t really that loud.

“Mr Potter, I am so sorry. I know I am unforgivable but if you 

-Let’s grab you a drink, should we? You seem like you could need it.

-Indeed.” He agreed, thinking already far too much of that offer. Mr Potterhad wait for him, and wanted to share a drink with him. It couldn’t be just awork thing in those conditions, right?

Biting his lower lip, Draco silently followed him toward the bar, then toa table near the window. 

21:20.

Harry was absolutely confused by the turn of event. Monsieur wasn’tlooking for any ordinary prisoner, but for the man in the iron mask himself. Thiswas going to be a highly confidential affair, and if he resolved it, could makehim part of the royalty private police. He wouldn’t have to run after poorpeople stealing bread to feed their family but would chase lord and rebelswanting to execute the monarch. He could finally do something he’d be proud of.But if he failed… Mr Malfoy has offered to keep his name secret until theygathered any kind of clue, but Harry knew that facing his master, he wouldn’tbe able to lie. But then, what was life without a little bit of risk? 

22:00.

Their plan was made, the loose ends tied up. Mr Malfoy had insisted oncoming with him, at least to the Bastille’s gates. He even stated that apoliceman was a lesser danger to a hidden secret when his was accompanied by achamber valet. Harry had to agree and said valet had had trouble hiding avictorious smile. Maybe he’s been wrong. Maybe Mr Malfoy was far more than a pretty boywith good manner and a super human ability to obey at every stupid order. 

22:15. Somewhere in Versailles

Mr Malfoy almost bowed down as he said goodbye. It made Harry laughedand the blond guy turned red. Harry found it pretty endearing.

That night, when he lied on his bed, he didn’t only thought of theaffair.

 08:00. Somewhere in Versailles stables.

Monsieur had left for Le Chevalier’s apartment early this day and Draco’svalet agreed on covering him up if someone asked for him. Even if he hadwritten a small letter to his master, he’d enjoy not having the lords anddomestic of his highness on his back the moment he came back.

Now he only had to wait excitedly for Mr Potter.  

08:10.

Harry noticed Mr Malfoy from afar. The sun was glittering in his whiteblond hair and he was unmistakeably the man he was looking for. Smiling unconsciously,Harry made his horse speed up a little bit. 

08:12.

“Mr Malfoy.” Harry greeted as he practically jumped off his horse.

“Mr Potter.” Draco smiled back purely. “It’s a delight to see you.” And thedelight was higher when he spotted the spark of a blush of the other man cheek.“Are you ready to go?

-I am. Need a hand?

-I know how to ride, Mr Potter.” He assured, defying the other man ofever thinking lesser of him.

 And this is how, MM Potter and Malfoy arrived at the Bastille’s prison;Harry leading up the horse while Draco was firmly holding on his waist, tryingto stabilise himself on the horse’s fast run. 

The chosen era is the one under Louis XIV regn, one of french major (?) king, also known as the Sun King.

Bastille prison is one the more famous french one and it is said the the man on the iron mask has been captive. The Identity of this man is still unknown, and many rumours and legends were written on him.

ABO

The Tale of Two Kingdoms by larriebane Words: 24k Tumblr: @larriebane 

ABO-universe with modern language mixed with some new and old traditions, no technology exist (cars, phones, electricity etc.)

Prince Louis of Doncaster finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time as the feared Hijackers from Cheshire come to claim their annual pray of omegas. He is taken away and transported to a strange country that Louis has been taught as the enemies’ land. When unforeseen events take place and even more unlikely savior turns up, Louis’ all previous beliefs are being proved wrong. Will love save the two kingdoms and form an alliance after several centuries of feuds between these bordering countries?

where the lights are beautiful by twoshipsdrifting Words: 31k

Harry wasn’t wrong about that, not in a general sense. Lots of omegas did seek out rich alphas and betas, hoping or planning to go into heat at the right time. Plenty of omegas saw this as their duty, especially if their families weren’t well off. Worse, Louis couldn’t honestly say he’d never thought about it. If that had been his life, his goal, Louis would feel pretty good about himself now. As it is…Louis feels like shit.

.:. .:. .:.

Or the accidental bonding a/b/o fic.

Like Candy In My Veins by littlelouishiccups Words: 31k Tumblr: @littlelouishiccups

“Um…” Harry said slowly after a moment. “Okay. That’s… this is… Let me get this straight.” He lifted up a hand and swallowed. “You told your family that you have a boyfriend… and my name was the first one you thought of?”

“Harry Potter was on TV, alright? It wasn’t that much of a stretch.” Louis pinched the bridge of his nose. He couldn’t believe he was explaining himself to Harry fucking Styles. He couldn’t believe he was stooping this low. “Forget it. I’m sorry I even thought about bringing you into this.”

Harry snorted. “What? Did you want me to pretend to be your boyfriend or something?” (Basically the A/B/O, enemies to lovers, fake relationship, Christmas AU that nobody asked for.)

Omegas haven’t been able to shift into their wolves for two hundred years. That is, until Louis Tomlinson changes everything.

Or...an AU where Alpha Harry and Omega Louis have a lot more than falling in love to deal with after The Mating Ceremony.

pray for some sweet simplicity by delsicle Words: 237 Tumblr: @emperorstyles

Louis is the only omega to ever make it in the cut-throat world of competitive motorcycle racing—that is, he would be if anyone actually knew about his identity. Now, his sights are set towards competing in—and winning—the European Grand Prix, the biggest and most difficult race of the entire year, so he can disappear underground for good. He’s close enough, too, until an alpha sports journalist is assigned to follow Louis’s every move as he prepares for the event of his career.

Or, an AU where motorcycle racing is the biggest sport in a heavily divided world, Louis is trying to take control of his own destiny, and Harry is in for more than he bargained for.

Turning From Praise (Punk!Harry Christian!Louis) by capriciouslouis Words: 128k Tumblr: @capriciouslouis   

Louis has had a strict Christian upbringing that he never realized he resented until he meets Harry Styles, a boy who lives to rebel and doesn’t give a damn what anyone else thinks. But the better he gets to know Harry, the more he begins to realize that maybe Harry does care. And maybe “the children who God forgot” are closer to God than the devout will ever be.

Sail into the Sun by orphan_account Words: 31k

Prince Louis Tomlinson is sick of the closet. Harry Styles is a con man with a hatred of rich people. Louis needed a way out, Harry needed a husband. It was a mutual agreement. Doesn't mean they have to like each other.

All The King's Men by sacredheart (orphan_account) Words: 39k

Louis is an arrogant, self assured prince who falls in love with a charming thief named Harry during his youth. However, years later, a revolution is sparked amongst the frustrated commoners... and Louis's former teenage romance is leading it.

18 by aclosetlarryshipper  Words: 15k Tumblr: @thedarkestlarrie

Harry hates Golden Boy Louis and he's pretty sure the feeling's mutual. It's too bad they're forced into parenthood together during the home ec baby project.

Featuring accidental fathers, an improv performance gone wrong, and an altruistic game of spin the bottle.

And I'll judge the cover by the book by harrystylesandstuff Words: 73k

At twenty years old Harry has his life figured out. He’ll graduate from the private University of Buckingham and move to Oxford to study journalism. He’ll meet someone who shares his values and accepts who he is, and apply everything his successful parents have taught him.

At twenty-two years old Louis has no clue what he wants in life. He’s not sure he’ll pass the year and doesn’t know where he’ll go after that. He spends his time smoking away his doubts about himself with his friends and all he cares about is making sure his family doesn’t fall apart.

They don’t belong together.

Or a Private University AU where Harry is a queer posh prince, Louis is a closeted troublemaker, and neither expect to understand each other the way they will.

Soft Hands, Fast Feet, Can't Lose by dolce_piccante  Words: 112k Tumblr: @haydolce

American Uni AU. Harry Styles is a frat boy football star from the wealthy Styles Family athletic dynasty. A celebrity among football fans, he knows how to play, he knows how to party, and he knows how to fuck (all of which is well known among his legion of admirers).

Louis Tomlinson is a student and an athlete, but his similarities to Harry end there. Intelligent, focused, independent, and completely uninterested in Harry’s charms, Louis is an anomaly in a world ruled by football.

A bet about the pair, who might be more similar than they originally thought, brings them together. Shakespeare, ballet, Disney, football, library chats, running, accidental spooning, Daredevil and Domino’s Pizza all blend into one big friendship Frappucino, but who will win in the end?

Unbelievers by isthatyoularry Words: 136k Tumblr: @isthatyoularry

It’s Louis’ senior year, and he’s dead set on doing it right. However, along with his pair of cleats, a healthy dose of sarcasm and his ridiculous best friend, he’s also got a complicated family, a terrifyingly uncertain future, and a mortal enemy making his life just that much worse. Mortal enemies “with benefits” was not exactly the plan.

Or: The one where Louis and Harry definitely aren’t friends, and football is everything.

Luscious blood by Deidei Words: 116k

Louis Tomlinson, a human, has been living in poor living conditions together with his mother since he was born. Ever since he can remember he has loathed the stronger, faster, more developed kind that rule this world; Vampires. But will his opinion change after he meets his soul mate that is an arrogant, royal vampire named Harry Styles…

Run Like the Devil by benzos Words: 138k Tumblr: @churchrat

Harry stops pouting, but his frown is still fixed in place. “Are you sure?” he asks. “You know it’s your soul you’re signing away.” He sounds…sad? No, that’s not right, but there’s something.

Christ. This is the most incompetent demon Louis’ ever met. If he hadn’t seen the red of his eyes he wouldn’t believe he was a demon at all. How’d he get this job if he isn’t trying to convince Louis to deal? Or is it just another trick? A ploy for sympathy?

“I’m sure,” Louis says. “Come over here and kiss me.”

*Supernatural AU. Louis hunts demons; Harry's the strangest demon he's ever met, and he keeps fucking meeting him.

Love's Truest Language by summerwine Words: 48k Tumblr: @smrwine

The first part was meant as a joke. He didn't really expect Harry to buy anything. It was just Louis’ way of softening the ‘get the fuck out’ blow.

“Where's your order forms, then?”

“I don't want your flowers.” Louis chided before directing all of his attention to the arrangement in front of him.

Harry laughed under his breath as he stood to his full height, “Who said anything about them being for you, love?”

Taken Over By The Feeling by whyidontknow1 Words: 53k

After almost a year of increasingly troubling behavior, Louis agrees to let his sister live with him. It's a last resort before more drastic measures are taken by their mom.

Harry Styles runs Given A Chance, a program for troubled and disadvantaged teens out of the bakery he owns. He offers the kids in his program what he believes they need to start on a different and better path for their lives.

Louis learns all too quickly that Harry's goodwill does not extend to him. Only because he happens to remind Harry of an ex he'd rather forget. It's not the smoothest of beginnings, but in the end Louis' own issues might be the real problem.

Hate Me To The Moon by harrystylesandstuff Words: 83k

The last thing Harry wanted was to spend his entire summer stuck with his dad's new fiancée and her kids. He wants no more when he learns she's a very religious dictator, raising a sixteen year old nun and a clean cut potential priest ass kisser.

Everything takes a slightly different turn, however, when Harry finds out his future step-brother is actually the rude stranger he caught sucking off a guy in a pub, far from the reserved Christian his mom thinks he is...

AU where Harry is a sexy nerd, Louis is a great actor, and they both pretend to hate each other's guts to convince themselves they're not feeling things future step-brothers shouldn't feel...

Off The Record by Tomlinsontoes Words: 90k Tumblr: @pianolouis 

Louis is an out of control teen heartthrob, Harry is hired to get him back on track and they both hate each other while they secretly don't.

“I'm not your personal assistant you know,” Harry says once he gets there and Louis lets him in and he shoves the bag into his hands. “I'm your publicist.”

“I know that,” Louis smiles a devilish grin patting Harry in the middle of his chest as he takes the bag, “but look at you personally assisting me,” he says looking in the bag and pulling out the Cheetos. I also know that my PA turns his phone on silent at night, and clearly, you don't. Waiting for a booty call or something?” Louis says turning on his heels and scurrying over to his sofa and plopping down. Harry swears he sees a puff of orange dust soar into the air when Louis opens the bag. He's amazed that couch is as clean as it looks.

Dance to the Distortion by Lis (domesticharry) Words: 96k Tumblr: @domestic-harry

Louis accidentally breaks Harry's camera lens and in order to get it fixed, they decide to participate in a romantic couples study. The only issue is that they are not actually couple. Well that and the fact they cannot stand each other.

more than just a dream by spit_on_me_larry Words: 122k

Louis Tomlinson loves his life, he really does. It's just that he's constantly on the verge of everything completely going to shit. He's disorganized and clumsy and hotheaded and just a little bit ridiculous.

And then he meets Harry Styles. Harry is the type of person Louis hates. It seems like everything comes easily to him. He's rich and brilliant and everyone loves him and he has his life impossibly and perfectly together.

Louis detests Harry Styles. Except for the inconvenient fact that he can't seem to get Harry out of his head.

Shoukoku no Altair Liveblog (Chapter 2)

First: I adore how fluid the lines are for this image (left: magazine scan; right: jpn digital ver).

Second: I got my hands on the digital Japanese raws (cmoa.jp was having a sale and the first volume of Altair was free)! It’s surprising how much better the quality is compared to the magazines (see the image above). I guess it would be worth it to buy the digital from Kodansha, though they currently only have the first volume.

Anyway, I have no set way of liveblogging this currently...I planned on doing it in chunks but the posts get really long if I include more than 1 chapter so...I’ll see.

Before I start chapter 2, this is interesting. I noticed that the scans from the magazine lack this border (which appears in both digitally available versions as you can see here). Seems like it really gets cleaned up and added to for the compiled release.

Chapter 2: The Poison General

We get the Balt-Rhein Empire’s crest, but I don’t remember enough about European heraldry to talk about it so I’ll just leave it here.

I love the expressions on these people’s faces. And their poses. They’re probably dancing? I don’t know anything about Turkish dances.

First off, a bit of history about this fictional Turkiye. I have no clue how close it is to the real life counterpart, but apparently this Turkiye is a country of nomads and merchants, which a little wikipedia digging reveals to be true about some Turkish ethnic groups. It also has a “caravan road” and a “sea road” which is the equivalent of the Silk Road.

Breaking away from the exposition, we get some dude calling Mahmut’s name.

He’s adorable. And he’s reading a book with eagles on the cover, even better. AND he has a bookmark between his fingers. You see it in the book when he closes it, as well as an intricate looking pen. I just love this amount of detail UGH.

And, I don’t think I mentioned this last chapter, but I loooove how this manga-ka draws birds. They don’t look derpy?? Look at that deadly beak on Iskander.

Then this guy pops up. Ok his nickname is apparently 飾り帽子 meaning “decorated hat” which. I have no clue what that’s supposed to mean. Does he wear nice hats or does he have a lot of accomplishments...I dunno. He’s a governor/viceroy (総督).

Honestly all these titles are starting to confuse me. Are the vizers and pasha two different titles? Because they use the same kanji: 将軍 (meaning general) and there are 13 of each. So does that mean they put a 17-year-old in charge of a whole slice of their country?

whatever, I’ll just go with it.

OH so the pasha are vizers, I see...I just had to read a little further haha

Not sure what these two are going on about, but something to do with the country’s security. And things moving around behind the scenes.

They changed Shara’s appearance between the magazine and digital releases:

(digital: left; magazine scan: right)

I’ve never read both versions like this at the same time, so that’s a surprise. And before anyone gets all up in arms, the colors/shading on the magazine release are usually different/darker because they use lesser quality paper. That’s why her skin tone (as well as the background, which is apparent in certain panels) differ.

I never realized they differ so much?? Like, I know from other series that they clean up and add chapters to the tankobon but. I kinda like magazine Mahmut’s expression better, but digital Shara is an improvement. She looks a little creepy in the magazine with the very wide eyes lol.

Also Iskander. Mahmut is feeding him...something huge.

Ah, here they are in the panel before. lol that bird.

awww Not a social butterfly, eh. He’d rather sit in a corner feeding his eagle. Honestly, so would I. So would I.

Such a nice panel. Also, she apparently saw him 4 years ago?? He’s about 17 now, so that would make him 13 then. He doesn’t look much different. that’s manga for you.

omg haha poor boy getting dragged off to go dance. Although, he seems really uncomfortable here:

A combination of being embarrassed at his inability to dance and the gossip centered around him?

Maybe it’s just about his dancing after all. 

*went to look it up* Ah, yes, apparently it IS part of a dance from that region of the world. People can’t seem to decide if it’s more Turkish or Greek in origin, but whichever it is, that’s apparently how the people in that area danced.

aww he’s flustered.

lol Shara “You know, a pasha’s estate is a lot more modest than I’d thought.”

I actually thought it was a really nice, spacious place if it really is his house that he lives in all alone.

lol his “Get out.” 

omg it was a book of poetry??

HAHA so he decided to sleep on the roof instead. What season this? It’s said that they live in a desert, and Ibrahim mentions in the original Japanese that his wife gave birth to twins in the summer, so it isn’t summer...guess it’s not that bad outside haha.

WAIT. You can’t see this in the scans because the sky is too dark, but.

He brought Iskander up there with him.

And serious times now. Looks like that Louis guy from last chapter is up to no good again.

If I knew more about this region, maybe I’d be able to guess who these people are based on, but apparently they’re seeking to reclaim land they’ve lost.

Armed revolt, huh. does not sound good. OH WHAT.

The guy he just spoke to? Aah, that stunned look on his face, especially the crease in his brow, you can see how, well, shocked he is. And shell-shocked, at the bottom of the page when he’s remembering just how easily they hung out together a few days ago.

And notice how, while everyone else is moving onto how they heck they’re going to fix this (with Zaganos already declaring that he’ll take care of it), Mahmut is still in shock that such a thing happened, not wanting to believe it. It shows his lack of experience (the sort that comes with aging with the job). But at the same time, it’s his intense desire for peace that helps him solve these conflicts too. A bit of give and take.

Also, can’t decide if I like this guy or not:

Well, at least he looks cool. I haven’t mentioned it yet, but still loving the clothing designs. Though those boots look painfully annoying to lace up.

Oh, but look at this completely frustrated look.

Once again, he can’t do anything, and no one will even suggest compromise or find out why the people rebelled. Violence is once again the default, the established standard. It clashes completely with how Mahmut wants to approach things.

And then! He doesn’t scream or shout, he actually requests calmly for Zaganos to stop. Not that Zaganos will be pleased, probably, but at least Mahmut is reining himself in. And he waited a bit, too, seeing as Zaganos had time to leave and get on his horse.

He’s using polite language, too.「お待ちくださいザガノス将軍」

Look at this giant unimpressed frown:

Ooh, I really like this tension between the two. He tells Mahmut straight out that he wants to take advantage of this event, whatever caused it, to wipe the optimism/naivety off the pacifist faction’s faces.

“...have their eyes opened to the fact that powers able to make even the virtuous Ibrahim Vali revolt exist in this world.”

I really like that line. It’s hard to really hate the guy because has a point, just as much as Mahmut is right in that they should find out the root of the revolt before they act. It’s horribly cold, but he’s also right that it’s dangerous to, well, believe in the goodness of people when they have the safety of a country at risk, which is the exact opposite of Mahmut.

Of course, the fact that he may have known they would revolt and did not do anything about it just to take advantage of the situation is like, damn dude why are you so cynical. I dunno. Zaganos is interesting. Coldly efficient, extreme, yet I can understand where he’s coming from.

cute

he’s just so. small.

I like this awkward panel in which he is getting on the horse. Looks very weird but. it’s actually accurate for how people experienced at riding (and light enough to vault) look when getting on horses. I appreciate that the horse looks like a horse and not a horse puppet, too (the one other one above notwithstanding)

Also, I love how Halil supports Mahmut, such a great grandfatherly figure. 

LANGUAGE TIME OMG. When Mahmut says to tell Halil “Understood” as his message, he uses the word 心得 which translates to “understood” lol. But the kanji that make up that word are 心 “heart” and 得 “to gain”. just...let that sink in (an alternative that is more common is probably 分かりました or 承知, but that’s a little formal)

OMG. She fixed...this awkward horse...it has become so beautiful...Also, the background was changed to make it a starry night.

Ooh, and Shara comes along to help out Ibrahim!

AND I AM DONE. CHAPTER 2 DOWN. How many to go again...? That took forever.
