Vintage Drarry Fics

Thought I'd put together a list of some of the old Drarry 'classics' of my teenage years, for anyone interested. All posted between 2001-2006, compiled using my (bad) memory, a lot of googling, fanlore.org and numerous different LJ rec accounts (including the incredible @capiturecs). I checked as best I could, but if anyone knows of any fics that their author doesn't want to be shared, please let me know and I will of course remove.

Please also note that these fics are of their era, when attitudes may have been different, and they may not all be grammatically perfect. I haven't reread all, as my own tastes have changed, but most importantly do note that they may not be tagged - don't blame me when, for example, Harry dies tragically on a rooftop at sunrise...

Hogwarts Era (mostly 5th-7th year)

A Thousand Beautiful Things by Duinn Fionn/geoviki (M, 105k)

It's all rather embarrassing and making his life very complicated.

Artful Facade by Sky Sorceress (T, 66k)

Bond by AnnaFugazzi (M, 173k)

Checkmate by Naadi Moonfeather (T, 245k)

Eclipse by PhoenixSong/Mijan (T, 287k)

"You're dead, Potter... I'm going to make you pay..." Draco swore his revenge on Harry for Lucius's imprisonment, and Harry all but laughed at him.

It's the perfect plan, guaranteeing revenge, power, and prestige, all in one blow.

Is it possible to leave everything you thought you were behind?

Resolution by Frances Potter (R, 322k)

When you've spent six years fighting evil, all you really want is a quiet time. But when your name is Harry Potter the chances of that are very slim.

Post-Hogwarts

Adagio in G Minor by furiosity (NC-17, 18k)

Seven years after Hogwarts and the war, life continues in the wizarding world. Draco Malfoy is rich, bored, and slightly jaded. Harry Potter is famous, busy, and somewhat disillusioned.

Plans and confessions, part 2

Day 7/7 - Confessions

Bonus Reigen reaction I couldn't fit in to the main piece :^)

[abhorsenkatiel]

When you're on your second read of GtN and you're starved for info about the rest of the world that Gideon doesn't give a shit about so you go digging into the Cohort Intelligence Files at the end.

Were the Second trying to form a relationship with the Fourth at Canaan House and Gideon just never saw it?

The Second, Third and Fifth are clearly the most politically powerful houses, and Judith is obviously more intimidated by Abigail than anyone else. It seems like she was planning to undermine her influence over the Fourth as a political power-move.

The affection between the Fourth and Fifth in this particular instance does seem to be genuine, but their relationship is also apparently part of a larger tradition which has been allowing the Fifth to accumulate power over the Fourth through building such relationships. The Second is not happy about one of their rivals having this power and seems to be making plans to usurp their influence.

The familial affections between Abigail + Magnus and Isaac + Jeannemary are very strong, but Isaac and Jeannemary also idolize Judith and Marta for being high-ranking members of the Cohort. Could the ploy have been successful if Cytherea hadn't been there running everything off the rails?

(Also, honorable mention for Isaac's potential arranged gay marriage 😭)

"Everyone thinks Coronabeth Tridentarius is attractive and therefore my attraction to her is normal and not at all indicative of anything"

Poor baby ❤

WIP!

Figured out how to rotoscope >:)

Original clip is from "Jumpin' Jive," by Cab Calloway and featuring the Nicolas Brothers!

[moodlemcdoodle]

So I’ve been working on ideas for a Shadow The Hedgehog (2005) rewrite/AU idea for a while now (see my sketch comic rewrite of the intro here)… What if the multiple pathways are because Shadow is stuck in a time loop groundhog day style and he has to go through all the pathways to retrieve all his memories and figure out “WHO I AM” for REAL (and get to the final story)

Hopefully soon I can put together something that explains the whole idea better, but for now have this silly sketch comic of Shadow going insane :)

[nyaskitten]

My new obsession is Cole and Nya QPR but sadly no one wants to see my vision ::(

[ajaxbread]

Honestly kind obsessed with Harvey being trans(ftm), it also makes me more comfortable imagining the ‘me’ in my sdv internal scenarios embracing my transness bc Harvey would just get it, and it could be t4t and it’s just amazing like yes that sounds wonderful where can I sign up
