@thehoneybeet created Everything is Relative to You for waterwings [E, ~43k]
Summary: Potter was supposed to have lived. Draco is certain of this. That Potter would no longer walk the earth was tantamount to the sun moving west to east across the sky. If only he could have stopped this from happening, if heâd have knownâŚ
It comes to him as ideas often did: too late.
Or, Harry dreams of his past lives, and Draco is in every one.
@crazybutgood created Unfolded Heart for @aprofessionalprotagonist [G, ~6k]
Summary: Draco had only had three months getting used to Potter joining Hogwarts as the Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor, before Headteacher McGonagall had asked him to organise a whole âeducational but festiveâ Christmas event with that energy ball of a Gryffindor. Merlin knew what the outcome would be. Â
@fantalfart created Another Thing the Poets Never Said for @sleepstxtic [E, ~15k]
Summary: Thereâs no good in dwelling on someone who had already been claimed by death years before. And even less in pondering the meaning of the soulmate marks that remain. Â
@ladderofyears created The Wonder of You for @melcarrianna [E, ~72k]
Summary: A Family Man AU. In the year 2000, Harry left Draco behind in London, intent on America and Quidditch fame and never looked back. Thirteen years later, Harry gets the opportunity to see what his life could have been like, had his life unravelled in a different way. Nothing in Harryâs world is the same, but Harry soon comes to realise that fatherhood, marriage and the biggest, laziest Crup in Hogsmeade add to up a life he enjoys more than he could even have imagined. Â
@cavendishbutterfly wrote The Hardest Hue To Hold for khalulu [M, ~17k]
Summary: Harry needs to get the hell out of England. So he sets up a teaching assistantship in America, hops on a plane, and heads off to a fresh start. Except thereâs a familiar face among the university faculty, and itâs really not the familiar face that Harry wanted. Or at least, itâs not who Harry wanted at first. Â
@lettersbyelise wrote Fire Meet Gasoline for @avenueofesc [E, ~63k]
Summary: When Dracoâs anger management issues land him in St Mungoâs, he thinks his Quidditch career is over. But Harry, A&E Healer and notorious workaholic, is faced with a similar predicament. To save their jobs, the two of them decide to fake a relationship. All they have to do is convince their friends and employers⌠and not fall in love in the process. Simple, right? Â
@thebooktopus wrote A True Entanglement for @tenthousandyearsx [E, ~10k]
Summary: One moment, Harry was minding his own business, going about his workday, and the next, he found himself being dragged across the Ministry by a red string that had somehow curled up in a pretty little bow around his wrist. A story of fate, smut, falling in love, and a string named Harold. Â
@goblinmatriarch wrote The Binding and the Loosing for @short666bread [M, ~35k]
Summary: Draco Malfoy is a reclusive academic who works on layered generational magic under the pseudonym Scholar Griseo. When he is contacted by a âJames Blackâ for help with a tricky situation with a magical House, he canât help but notice the similarities between his potential client and Harry Potter.
Since he canât exactly refuse to help the Saviour of the magical world, Draco girds his loins and visits Grimmauld Place, where he ends up involved in what he must presume is one of those classic Harry Potter misadventures. Bonding, sentient Houses, domesticity ahoy! Â
Justlikewriting wrote The Wake-up Kiss for the @hd-erised Community [M, ~20k]
Summary: This time, when Harry found himself without a date for the Ministry Yule Ball, Parvati Patil was unable to step in. So, he was left with the only other viable option: to ask Draco Malfoy. Which would be fine, of course: it had been twelve years since the war after all. And they saw each other regularly now, meeting up with the same group of friends almost every Friday night.
Harry, however, obviously hadnât taken into account just how insufferable Zacharias Smith could be. Â
@oknowkiss wrote Historians for @shiftylinguini [E, ~30k]
Summary: Itâs the Dumbledoreâs Army Reunion Holiday, and Harryâs found himself in hot water with his friends once again, after telling them he has a boyfriend he definitely does not have. In an attempt to fix things, heâs made it his colleague on Level Nine, Draco Malfoyâs problem too. Featuring a ski chalet in Switzerland, a pair of bunk beds, and an agreement that shouldâve been simple, were it not for all the bloody feelings getting in the way. Â
@camisoul-stars wrote Traces of Aconite for Justlikewriting [M, ~7k]
Summary: Draco Malfoy is arrested for murder. Hermione Granger takes on the defense of his case and has her private investigator, Harry Potter, search to find out the truth of what happened. The only problem is Harry has some confusing feelings about Draco that might get in his way. Â
FlightinFlame wrote Keep Your Brittle Heart Warm for @ladderofyearsâ [M, ~50k]
Summary: Eighth-year offers Draco a brief respite before he returns to Azkaban. With a restricted wand, and memories of a girl who shouldnât exist, he has very little hope for the future. But when Harry brings Teddy into the school, and proves to be utterly clueless, things change beyond anything he could imagine. Â
@shiftylinguiniâ wrote Service Bell for @candybarrnerdâ [E, ~8k]
Summary: Draco is: a werewolf, living in a cabin in the woods, minding his own business, and never going to buy plaid because heâs not that much of a fucking cliche (yet).
Heâs also counting down the days until he sees Harry again. Â
@aprofessionalprotagonistâ wrote Draco Malfoyâs Foolproof Guide to Reconciliation for @thewakelessâ [T, ~6k]
Summary: Narcissa Malfoyâs determined to reconcile with her sister, which means Dracoâs stuck spending time with Teddy Lupin â and Harry Potter. Â
@amywaterwings wrote The Unknown Door for @creeeee [E, ~61k]
Summary: here is something wrong with the Bellcrest. The heart of the place beats rotten. Everyone says so.
Where Draco is a magical property manager, Harry is a recluse, and theyâre definitely not hiding from their problems in the run-down flats of the Bellcrest. Not at all. Not one bit. Â
@softlystarstruckâ wrote the treehouse near primrose downs for @pato-roldnartâ [Mature, ~14.4k]
Summary: Draco and Harry have been roommates for years, so buying a magical house in the countryside shouldnât be a big difference. But in between fresh loaves of bread and beds of wildflowers, things start to fall into place.
@corvuscrownedâ wrote In The Company Of Serpents for @lettersbyeliseâ [Explicit, ~25k]
Summary: Thereâs something wrong with the serpents at the Greengrass Ophidiarium. Luckily, a certain Parselmouth just might be able to help.
@tenthousandyearsxâ wrote Trouble with your tie, potter? for @drarrydoodlesâ [Explicit, ~6.7k]
Summary: The last thing Harry expects when Slughorn partners him up with Zabini is Malfoy shooting them furious looks throughout the whole class and then unceremoniously snogging Harry in the corridor.
@mars-bar81â wrote The Cursed Manor for @doingthechachaslideâ [Teen, ~40.6k]
Summary: Opheliaâs been a paranormal investigator for almost ten years, and sheâs starting to run out of haunted and cursed sites to explore. When her eclectic roommate and assistant reveals that he owns a large, cursed Manor, Ophelia finds a lot more than just a new career opportunity.
@tedahfromtaylaâ wrote There are many benefits to being a marine biologist for dustmouth [Teen, ~19k]
Summary: There is something about Harry that constantly calls Draco back to Britain. No matter how far he tries to run, he canât outrun his stubborn heart, or the history of his family.
@thewakelessâ wrote and the world is tumbling down for @camisoul-starsâ [Explicit, ~27.6k]
Summary: Draco is thirty-five and content. Heâs a writer, a painter, and has built a life for himself totally separate from the one he envisioned as a sullen, fearful boy at Hogwarts. Everything is calmâuntil his house begins trying to kill him.
@orange-peonyâ wrote Constellations on your skin for @softlystarstruckâ [Explicit, ~56.4k]
Summary: âIâm going to get my scars removed,â Draco announces on a rainy Wednesday afternoon.
âWho are you seeing?â Blaise asks.
âThe best Healer out there,â Draco replies with a little shrug. âHarry Potter.â
khalulu wrote Birds of Dreams / Remover of Obstacles / Guardian of Waters for @crazybutgoodâ [G, ~12k]
Summary: Harry is exploring his Desi heritage, and Draco runs into him in colourful circumstances. Luna has a penchant for puns and the Patils watch Bollywood. Paper is folded, a flying carpet takes an Indian road trip, and a phoenix is found. Love blooms along the way, a flower thatâs free. Â
@nv-mdâ wrote The Inconvenient Death(s) of Harry Potter for @caroll-inâ [E, ~33k]
Summary: Harry and Draco have spent the decade since the War avoiding each other, even as theyâre forced to work together at the Ministry and their friend groups begin to alarmingly overlap. But what happens when Harry meets a tragic end (in a manner of speaking) and Dracoâs the only one who can save him?
Or Harry wonât stop dying, Dracoâs had too much coffee, and thereâs more than enough time for them to make a mess of each otherâs lives. Â
@deliciousblizzardsharkâ wrote Coming Out Cake for @cavendishbutterflyâ [T, ~10k]
Summary: CafĂŠ owner Draco Malfoy is trans but doesnât spend a lot of time thinking about it until he discovers that Hogwarts professor and long-time crush Harry Potter has a big secret. Â
@sorrybutblogâ wrote All Things Go for @okay-skyâ [E, ~33k]
Summary: Dracoâs back at Hogwarts by court order. Harryâs back for no particular reason at all. Some things change, some stay the same. Neither expects to spend eighth-year living in close quarters, playing rugby (poorly), staying up late, sneaking around, and finally figuring it all out. Â
@sleepstxticâ wrote A Love That Knows Of Itself for @moonflower-roseâ [M, ~7k]
Summary: After an accidental bonding, Harry is forced to confront some longstanding feelings concerning a certain Unspeakable. Â
@maraudersaffairâ wrote Release for @oknowkissâ [E, ~17k]
Summary: After serving two years in Azkaban, Draco is ready to finally live his life on his own terms. He gets a job at Borgin and Burkes, rents a crummy flat in Knockturn, and begins seeking out fit Muggles to shag.
Then one night Draco comes across a gorgeous man whoâs tied himself up and stuck a message on the wall for any stranger to read: Free use. And whatâs even better? The man resembles Harry Potter. Â
@avenueofescâ wrote An Abstract Courtship for @secretartlairâ [E, ~9k]
Summary: Blaise looks at him for a moment, considering him with narrowed eyes, before he relents. âAlright, Potter, listen closelyââ
âBlaise, youâve been dating my best mate for nearly four years.â Harry interrupts, relaxing slightly in knowing that he is at least speaking with a friend. âI know you have a ring picked out for him. I think we are well past âPotter,â donât you?â
âIn normal circumstances, I would agree. However, I am not speaking to you as a friend right now.â
âUhâŚâ Harry frowns. âYouâre not?â
âNo.â Blaise states matter-of-factly. âBecause you, Potter, are a complete fucking idiot.â Â
@moonflower-roseâ wrote Contretemps for @goblinmatriarchâ [T, ~8k]
Summary: Draco Malfoy has been living like a model citizen. If only he could convince Potter. Â
@romaine2424â wrote The Roommate for @sorrybutblogâ [M, ~43k]
Summary: After one year in Azkaban and two years of home arrest, Draco is going off to college. Myrrdin College is Oxfordâs magical college, where one Harry Potter is currently attending. Both are going for their teaching certificates with Draco specialising in Potions and Harry in Defence Against the Dark Arts. The Headmistress has insisted all incoming professors must be degreed. However, the Board of Governors insist that Draco also must live in a Muggle house with limited allowance and take Muggle elective courses before he can become Hogwartsâ new Potions Professor. Harry is coerced by others into helping Draco Malfoy survive in the Muggle world. Â
@candybarrnerdâ wrote everything you should say for InnerLilith [E, ~7k]
Summary: Theyâre not friends.
But when Draco offers help, Harry takes it. Â
@makeitp1nkâ wrote The Faeries, the Prince, and the Cupboard for @mars-bar81â [M, ~24k]
Summary: SIn 1967, Roy Disney made a deal with a rare species of fae to build his brother Waltâs dream on their land. Forty-seven years later, that deal will change the lives of two wizarding families forever.
A story about stories, family, dreams, and love. Â
@writcraftâ wrote Meddling, Menswear, and Magic for flightinflame [M, ~19k]
Summary: Draco Malfoy is working in a job he hates and avoiding the magical world entirely, but he really is fine. When a bequest from Severus Snape brings Draco back to a much-changed magical world, he must find his place within it and navigate his growing attraction to Harry Potter in the process. Â
InnerLilith wrote Once Upon a (Wet) Dream for @thebooktopusâ [E, ~14k]
Summary: Once a year, Harry has a very strange dream. Meanwhile, in real life, heâs falling for Draco Malfoy. Â
@doingthechachaslideâ wrote Canary Creams and New Yellow Paint for @tedahfromtaylaâ [E, ~72k]
Summary: Itâs not Dracoâs fault that Potter is seeing things and Scorpiusâs campaign to be the Ministryâs Creature Liaison is struggling, itâs not.
Draco didnât ask for Potter to walk into his Ocularistry Clinic in Northern Ireland fifteen years after they last saw each other, demanding to know why the Spectroculars Draco invented malfunctioned while Potter was painting and cost him an eye.
Scorpius hadnât asked for any of that either, though, so when Potter and the rest of Dracoâs patients start to see mysterious symbols through their prosthetic eyes, and the resulting blow to Dracoâs public reputation drags Scorpiusâs campaign through the mud, Draco is determined to fix it.
If that means trudging through a boggy moor in search of a fictional species Luna thinks is causing their problems, Draco will just have to pluck up the courage, march in with a team of Gryffindors, and be ready to battle any beast they meet.
Even if that beast looks less like the large, bipedal talking toads they find and more like the Ministry of Magic as a whole. Â
