[humsops-stash]

we love us some awkward harry

[howtokillavampire]

do you ever see fanart so tasty that you are then obligated to join the fandom and spend all of your waking hours learning the lore behind the characters, or is that not a universal experience?

[iamhereonlytobeanunstableshipper]

Projecting on fictional characters is not enough anymore i need to be loved

I keep finding slytherin harry drarry fanart and just deciding it counts as scorbus and honestly I'm completely okay with that decision

“You’ve seen me wearing jeans every day.”

“An anomaly, surely. Everyone will stare.”

Harry rolls his eyes and considers whether he should try to get Draco into a pair of trainers. He looks more than a little ridiculous in jeans and a t-shirt with shiny dragon leather boots, but the prospect of magically altering any more of his wardrobe than he already has isn’t exactly appealing. It took three tries to get the jeans to the right length, and the bottoms still look suspiciously threadbare, even for him.

“This is a ploy to humiliate me, I see it now. Stuff me into this - this - leg prison, and this militaristic tie shirt -”

“Arsenal’s a football team, and it’s a tee shirt.”

“To show the world what a fool I am! This won’t do, Potter, it simply will not do!”

They compromise on a floral button-up, but the jeans stay on.

@hprecfest day 31: fav among favs

Last day of 2023!! Last prompt of the magnificent HP rec fest!!! This fest has given me so much joy and introduced me to a bunch of new stories to read (which I probably would never even considered to read if it weren't for this fest) for the past month 🥹 December went by so fast, 2023 went by even faster. I’ve been in and out of the fandom for the last too many years, more out than in to be honest, but this year I crashlanded back to HP fanfiction which honestly is my safe haven even after all these years. Further ado, fav among favs which my silly little words will never do justice:

The Brightest Constellations of Our Souls by @thecouchsofa 🩵 256,402 words, draco/harry

Harry doesn’t know how to cope after the War. The only things that make him feel even remotely normal again are taking risks while flying and fighting with Malfoy. It’s not likely to end well. Or, Draco becomes obsessed with ‘Wonderwall’, reads Muggle books, and drives a campervan, while Harry slowly falls in love with Draco. A story about travelling around the British Isles in the late 90s while healing deep scars.

My life can be divided to before and after this fic. I like to think that I didn’t find this story but the other way around - this story found me. And since it is a new fic, posted in the course of last six months I truly do believe it was meant to be I'd come back to the fandom via this story.

This fic is really fucking precious to me and I'm like a healthy-ish amount of emotional about it. First of all it's incredibly well-written, the style of the whole story is very straight-forward but at the same time extremely detailed, immersive and beautiful, sentence after sentence. Even though I love longfics (and this is definitely a longfic with 250k) they can feel a bit dragged out at times, but the way this story is paced and organized I never had that feeling reading this. I felt like each and every word of this story was essential, nothing too much, nothing too little.

This story does come with a little cw from the author. This fic is heavy, really fucking heavy at times, but there is so much light and eventual happiness to balance it out. One of the reasons I love this story so much is that it feels so relatable, it's raw and real to me in so many ways. Harry is my ultimate favorite character out of all the fandoms and characters out there, and the Harry we get served in this fic is godsent. His gradual healing with Draco during their little travels is really moving and touching. Babes.

It's extremely slow burn. Like the burn is so slow the fire is completely out most of the story. But then there's these small things along the way; like Draco's wet left shoulder from the rain and getting almond croissants all the way from Edinburgh that feed the flame and just wreck the shit out of me. And this fic drags you through the mud and minefields right before (and/or during) getting to the part where something actually happens between them. The way their relationship builds along the story is magnificent and emotional. And when we finally get to part where the slow burn pays off and flames lick every inch of my rotten body this fic has some class A smut that I file in the category of "so good I cried". Although, I did manage to cry for nearly the entirety of this story.

This fic definitely is a journey, and it's a long, at times difficult and gut-wrenching, but in the end it's a journey I'm really fucking glad I took. This is a fic I think everyone should at least give a chance to, it'll steal your heart.

All in all, this is a very, very dear story to me on every level possible. Thank you so much @thecouchsofa for writing it, I'm beyond in love with this story and I'm so glad I happen to exist on this planet at the same time as you and your brilliant, beautiful stories 💕

sometimes when the going gets rough you simply have to indulge in a fanfic you wouldn’t normally read </3

Hii! Remember that post about what if Regulus had survived and he was a better influence on Draco?? Well I just found a fic similar enough, Regulus doesn't survive but he sends Draco letters so he can read when he's older

Haven't finished it but it looks promising (and it's drarry!)

I heard great recs of Dear Cousin, Love Regulus and you know I love Draco connecting with the rebels of the Blacks. It’s a tragically wasted potential and great fic material! Thanks for the rec friend, it does look right up my alley. <3

[howtokillavampire]

Ah shit boys, I got caught up reading fanfic again and forgot to do my homework before my night class. Well, fuck.

fic rec: "plant me in your garden (and watch me grow) by honeybeet

*picks up megaphone* HELLO EVERYONE MAY I PLEASE HAVE YOUR ATTENTION? I HAVE A MUST-READ FIC FOR YOU!

I rarely do fic recs of just one fic, but I just got finished commenting on this and then immediately ran here to tell you all about it because oh my LANTA everyone should read this.

It's absolutely fucking GORGEOUS. The writing and storytelling are extremely compelling. The magical theory/exploration is unique and a wonderful theme. Draco is so lovingly rendered, and Harry is so smitten. The descriptions are casually perfect, in the way that a lot of great writing is easy to read, but is also so incredibly evocative.

And @thehoneybeet does it all in 5.5k.

As I try to do with all my fic recs, I will remind you to take a look at the tags to make sure it's right for you, and if it is, go read this fic. You will be glad you did.
