Yes, yes, please keep squashing these two on the bench, just pretend like each house have like five hundreds of students and Hogwarts can’t afford enough space for teenagers anymore. 10 points for Gryffindors!

@greenerteacups thank you for sharing your stories with us. I have been in such a dizzying state until you come back and suddenly I have all the courage to keep practicing so I can keep up with all my favourite scenes from Lionheart. You are an angel, I hope you find beautiful moments everyday.

[mandg-readings]

And that is a WRAP on Year 2! Thanks again for all your support over the episodes so far, it really is a joy to be recording this amazing fic 🥺 there's a few more sound effects than usual so we leave the term on a proper bang 😉

The great hormonal storms in book 5 lead me to this ask: let's talk about sex. Or at least sex ed. Does Hogwarts have it (at least in LH'verse)? Is that a nurse duty or a Head of House one? Did Narcissa sit her baby boy down for The Talk, at least to impart how Miss Granger would return to her parents in the same state she left them or at least unimpregnated? Did she outsource that task to Uncle Severus? Did Ron share what his older brothers passed down? What does our favorite victorian-in-spirit know abt sex beyond "lie back and think of the bloodline" and his hormonal daydreams?

I'm l o s i n g it at the idea of Narcissa instructing Draco to leave Hermione "unimpregnated," which, I just — I think the minute she uses those things in the same sentence, Draco hits the road at the speed of Mach Christ. He's gone. He's not here. He's not in the building. Can't have the Sex Talk if you can't fucking catch me, Mom. (For the record, I can fully see Narcissa trying. She's much less prudish than Draco is — gossips about adultery with her 11-y/o son on Christmas morning, references Ye Olde Wilde Times with Lucius, cracks the occasional bawdy joke, etc. — she just doesn't often see the need to discuss it, being aware that Draco, as far as she knows, remains an un-Awakened little Victorian. The Great Granger Debacle of 1995 is likely raising her suspicions there.) That said, Draco knows what sex is; for some reason my mind gravitates to the slightly handwavey answer of "boy's dormitory." I'm picturing him in his four-poster, curtains drawn, pretending to be asleep, while Ron and Harry have a free-ranging, horrifically creative conversation about what Ron thinks sex is (courtesy of the twins). Optimistically, Neville hops in with corrections from Augusta Longbottom's sexual etiquette seminars. Either way, Draco never, ever reveals that he has heard this conversation.

Or, alternatively, he and Theo have a really intense heart-to-heart during that summer before third year, which would do a lot to explain why the two of them are so weird about each other basically for the rest of time. (Raising the question of where Theo/Pansy/Daphne learned it. At age 12, Pansy got an excruciatingly detailed Talk from her mother, who was scared to death of a teen pregnancy pitching their family into ruin; Pansy, deciding it was unfair she had to suffer this and Theo did not, inflicted said Talk on Theo, who was just relieved that he didn't have to ask Sibelius. And Daphne grew up around so many healers that she just badgered them until someone gave in and told her. She's also a stated connoisseur of trashy romance novels, so. Make of that what you will.)

I think that Hogwarts, being modeled in mores and general Vibe from old English boarding schools, probably is not the most forward-thinking with sex ed. I also do believe Severus Snape would sooner jump off a bridge, and I kind of need him for the plot, so I've got to spare him that grave and important duty. Poppy Pomfrey probably gets the question the most of any staff member, and over the years, I think she's honed her answer down to a tight 3 minute-monologue that covers all major topics.

Odds and ends in the same vein:

Hermione gets a sit-down with the Drs. Granger the summer before her thirteenth birthday, so sometime in August, 1992. It is meticulously explained and flawlessly presented, with color-coded diagrams, an index, and a syllabus. It includes a diagnostic chart for common STIs and a spreadsheet on birth control options. Dr. Granger gets excited after a tangent about ovarian cysts and runs to pull out her old copy of Grey's. Hermione spends the whole time fully miserable, wondering why parents couldn't be like, greengrocers or something. (That doesn't stop her from asking questions, obviously.)

Ron, like all Weasley men of his generation, gets a knock on his door sometime around his 14th birthday, and Arthur invites him to "go fishing." This is code for "stand by the river and try to keep a will to live while your dad explains the mechanics of sex, its importance, and the value of waiting until you feel comfortable and safe sharing that level of intimacy with a trusted partner" (sic).

Fred and George got separate talks, because Arthur wanted to emphasize that he sees them as individuals; however, Fred ran back and immediately recounted it all to George, who proceeded to feign extraordinary expertise in it the next morning, to his father's horror.

Ginny's "go fishing" equivalent is Molly taking her out for tea and delivering a well-meant but incoherent combination of abstinence-only sex ed, aggressive body positivity, and highly technical discussions of how to insert a diaphragm. Ginny, who bullied the real story out of Bill years ago, is baffled, and to this day can't say for sure what she was supposed to take away from it.

Harry spends his 14th birthday at the Burrow. Ron and his brothers make a blood pact in advance not to tell him about it, though, so when Arthur invites him out for the day on August 1st, his sole thought is: oh, nice! Can't wait for some fun fishing :)

[thepagesinourhands]

In the Fanfiction World:

I have become so deeply obsessed with Lionheart by GreenTeaCups. It is amazing. I generally do not touch WIPs. But this is written so amazingly. I can’t even believe it.

[alulasprinkles]

Well-written Dramione I don't see mentioned enough:

Lion Heart - M - greenTeacup (tumblr: @greenerteacups)

Gryffindor Draco. Draco and Hermione's childhood friendship is absolutely heart-melting. And the tension >>> So far, greenTeacup has written through fourth year (56 enthralling chapters), with continuing years to come.

The Other Side - T - sweetsolitude (I can't find their tumblr, so if you know it, please @ the author)

6th Year AU. Death Eater Draco & OTP Hermione. Absolutely gutting (but in a good way). Theo has my heart... as well as the rest of me. I honestly haven't stopped thinking about this story since reading it. Everyone needs to read it!

Bending Light - M - scullymurphy (tumblr: @scullymurphy)

The Order of the Phoenix arranges protection programs for under-aged members... and, of course, the infamous (and fine af) Draco Malfoy. Hot Italian summer, compelling female friendship, and to-die-for love triangle.

PSA TO ALL

Lionheart is BACKKK 😭😭🙏🏻♥️😭😭😭

[hp-fanfic-archive]

The Climb by greenTeacup Pairing: Severitus Rating: T Word Count: 21k "…in the event that I, Lily Evans Potter, and my husband, James Potter, become deceased," read Albus, "I do hereby name Severus Snape as sole legal custodian of my son, Harry James Potter, until such a time as he comes of age." He folded his glasses on the table. "Fuck," said Severus, with feeling.

Draco Malfoy - Lionheart chapter 48 by greenTeacup

The boy was in love, of course he would see her *glitter* in golden, what do you expect, honestly?

Thank you @greenerteacups for writing one of the most beautiful fanfic I’ve ever have honour to read. Your effort and talent is amazing!

[mandg-readings]

Preview of Book 2's cover for Lionheart by greenteacup

(Because the last reading of Book 1 is still not done and I feel incredibly guilty to have nothing to offer. It was either this or my chaotic notes. Chapter 7 - The Disappearances of Severus Snape is 100% complete. Chapter 8, about 70%?) Fingers crossed my throat behaves and I can blitz those re-takes tomorrow.

[greenerteacups]

Love how Draco goes from desperate pining mess to overconfident smug prat in .0001 seconds once it finally clicks that Hermione fancies him back

draco at the end of chapter 63: i'm miserable. i'm worthless. i'm unlovable. no one look at me. my life has no meaning and my friends only claim to desire my presence as feeble gestures of pity and charity. hermione probably wants me dead.

draco at the end of chapter 64: I Am Your God And None Of You Fuckers Can Take Me

Nashuri Fanfic Recs

safety net (should i fight or fly?) by avatarsarny 

“Yield,” he rasped, breath warm against her temple, his hands firmly gripping her wrists and holding her in place beneath him. “Please, Itzia, will you yield to me?”

Shuri squirmed and tried to wriggle her way out from under him, but there was no fire in her attempt – she lay there, pinned beneath his weight and the heat of his gaze, midnight eyes boring into her own. If she closed her eyes, they may as well have been back on that beach beneath another sky; her back sinking into hot sands, the sun glinting off Namor’s vibranium-gold armor as he drove a spear deep into her belly.

But that was then, and now is now; and the Black Panther once again found herself caught in the Feathered Serpent-God’s net.

igazi and xocolatl by blackberrys, orphan_account

She places the fruit on his tongue. His open mouth is warm, his breath sliding along her fingers in a rush.

When he does the same to her, the edge of his thumb catches on her bottom lip by accident. He doesn’t let his hand linger. She resists the urge to smack her lips to rid herself of the sour-salt taste of the cacao fruit and his skin.

The woodwind howl of the voices around her is making her dizzy.

There’s an audible click when they both bite through the pulp, cracking into the bean within. Bitterness fills her mouth, a metallic sheen covering the deepest chocolate she’s tasted in her life. It takes effort not to cringe. Inexplicably, it reminds her of blood.

A Game of Serpents and Gods by tacotime

After Namor threatens Shuri with his ultimatum to burn the world together or go to war with Talokan, she turns his offer on him to stall for time.

“Convince me, and I will stay here. With you, and burn the world together.”

(Where Wakanda hasn't found her and Riri yet, and Shuri gives Namor a week to woo her into this insane plan of his).

someday we’ll linger in the sun by greenTeacup

As the legends have it, after she earned the blessings of Bast, the Princess Shuri took a god for a lover. The legends say less about what happened in between.

Unbreachable by neonheartbeat

"Time. Space. Reality. It's more than a linear path. It's a prism of endless possibility, where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities, creating alternate worlds from the ones you know. I am The Watcher. I am your guide through these vast new realities. Follow me, and ponder the question... What if?"

~~~~~~~~

T'Challa never becomes ill. SHIELD survives. Shuri goes to assist an upstate New York outreach center and SHIELD-run research facility with their science division... and something terrible, unbeknownst to her, is happening beneath her feet.

Awaken Love by valentineninja

She had said so many things to him on this night that she hadn’t meant to say out loud. But no matter how much she regretted it now, there was no going back.

“It could have been different, princess.” He echoed the words from so long ago as the water rippled as he sank back into it, and this time her title sounded like an endearment.

“Yes, it could have,” she whispered back as a single tear escaped her hold.

I would have recommended Devotion but it appears to have been deleted ;A;
