26 fics ♡ 26 authors ♡ a good mix of smut, fluff, angst and plot ♡ enjoy!!
A — All the Earnest Young Men by @tepre (E, 29.4k)
All over London portraits are disappearing from their canvases.
Auror Harry! Expert-in-Magical-Art-Theory Draco! There's running, dancing, falling through ice, what’s this paper giraffe doing here? A great time was had by all.
B — Beneath the Wave by @moonflower-rose (E, 30k words)
Harry is done with a life in the spotlight. No more adventures, no more mortal peril. He wants a quiet life of food and friends, and family. He even manages to have it for a while, until suddenly there are giant rabbits that need ferrying to a mysterious island, and a handsome Draco Malfoy, and Harry's right back in the middle of the action again, despite his best efforts.
C — Come For Me by Frayach (E, 24.6k words)
After Draco is paralyzed in an accident, he and Harry discover a new way to make love.
D — Dwelling by aideomai (E, 83.3k words)
Curses, James and Lily Potter ride again, several Ministry balls, a teenage Summer of Love, a grim young adult dystopian winter, a few different Draco Malfoys, secrets and the problems re: not having any, alternate lives, impossible lives, real lives, allusions to Dirty Dancing, and just because it's not called the Mirror of Erised doesn't mean you shouldn't know better.
E — Embers by @shiftylinguini (E, 41.2k words)
Werewolf Alphas aren't meant to be alone, or to suppress their ruts indefinitely like Draco has been since he was bitten eight years ago. He needs company, companionship, to knot ― he needs an Omega Heat Companion. At least, that’s what the Healers say, and even Draco can admit contacting the person they’ve referred him to might be nice.
Of course it turns out to be bloody Potter.
F — freely, as men strive for right by @bixgirl1 (E, 17.1k words)
How can Harry love a man like Draco Malfoy?
If only Draco would let him count the ways.
(Sometimes, a happily-ever-after takes a bit longer than you expect.)
G — Going Postal (A 125-Page Comic) by dustmouth (T)
So Draco and Harry sort of maybe have a bit of a thing going. Which is all fine and good, but would probably be more effective if they managed to be on the same continent for more than five minutes at a time.
H — Hermione Granger's Hogwarts Crammer for Delinquents on the Run by waspabi (T, 93.3k words)
'You're a wizard, Harry' is easier to hear from a half-giant when you're eleven, rather than from some kids on a tube platform when you're seventeen and late for work.
I — I Do Not Love You by @writandromance (E, 228.2k words)
In 2013, a carefully-designed Obliviation leaves Harry reconfiguring his life and identity without any memories of true love; an act that's essentially erased Draco Malfoy from his mind despite a wedding band and shared home.
In 2000, Draco had expected Pansy's relationship with Luna to bring the Gryffindors a bit closer to his orbit of quiet, carefully pacifistic existence, but he never expected to navigate such a transparent embrace into a unit of family, friendship, and love.
A mystery, two love stories, and a reminder that learning to love never has an end date.
J — Je te reverrai by @soliblomst (E, 16.1k words)
When Beauxbatons visited Hogwarts for the Triwizard Tournament, Draco managed to control his attraction to fourteen-year-old Harry Potter.
When Beauxbatons returns three years later for a cultural exchange, Draco's attraction to seventeen-year-old Harry Potter is impossible to curtail.
In his defence, Harry's perfectly tailored blue robes, mixed signals, and French accent do not help.
K — Keep your hands on me by @tenthousandyearsx (E, 21.4k words)
Malfoy binds himself with a sex curse. Harry cannot get enough (but would much prefer to keep Malfoy for himself).
L — Lusimeles by orphan_account (E, 23.2k words)
“You’re not special, Potter,” Kingsley informs him, not looking up from his work.
“But I’ve already done Occlumency training!” Harry splutters, indignant. “And it’s Malfoy.”
M — More Than That by joosetta (E, 10.9k words)
This is a story about two 52 year old men who refuse to age gracefully.
N — No One Ever Told Me by @slightweasel (M, 25.7k words)
Harry marries Draco to get him out of Azkaban.
Things get weird. And confusing. And then weird some more.
O — Our Objective Remains Unchanged by @citrusses (E, 46.1k words)
Harry Potter, returning member of the Oxford University Boat Club, has two goals for the spring of 2005: beat Cambridge, and beat Draco Malfoy. Perhaps not in that order.
P — Probationary Action by @toomuchplor (E, 63.3k words)
As part of the terms of the probationary contract, DRACO LUCIUS MALFOY shall submit for inspection his WAND on the last day of every month, such inspection to be carried out by a duly registered and fully qualified AUROR in the employ of the MINISTRY OF MAGIC, and such inspection to include a PRIORI INCANTATEM spell to ensure that no PROHIBITED MAGICS as heretofore described have been practised by the aforementioned probationer.
Q — Quickie by @greaseonmymouth (E, 11.8k words)
Harry's 8th year is going okay: he's got a girlfriend, the future is far away, and he has no choices to make. And then Malfoy starts sending him dick pics.
R — Rookie Moves by peu_a_peu (E, 75.3 words)
Aurors Potter and Malfoy crack the case.
S — Slithering by @astolat (E, 27.3k words)
Draco found the nest down in the Manor’s cellars, while he was clearing them out.
T — Tandem by @fastbrother (M, 90.8k words)
Harry and Draco meet by accident six years after the war. Harry's an Auror with a drinking problem and Draco's a broke student. Things don't work out well. Six years after that, Draco joins the British Auror Office as a Potioneer.
U — Untouched by @stratigraphywrites (E, 11.2k words)
"The magic demands a sacrifice," Malfoy said.
"What kind of sacrifice?"
Malfoy's mouth twisted grimly. "A virgin."
Harry felt his eyes widen. "Killing one?"
"No, of course not, Potter," Malfoy snapped. "Don't be macabre. Fucking one." Malfoy exhaled with bitter disappointment. "Fuck. Rules us out."
Harry took a deep breath. His face felt hotter than ever. "It doesn't, actually."
Harry's had some terrible birthdays in his life. But this one - trapped in a cave with Draco Malfoy, and only one way out - has to take the cake.
V — Vis-à-Vis-à-Vis by @vukovich (E, 50k words)
Harry's assignment was simple. Close out Draco Malfoy's missing persons case so he can be declared dead.
But who's making withdrawals from Malfoy's vaults? How is a death omen-turned-Unspeakable involved? Is an organization known as the Moirai to blame?
Harry brushes it off until he can't. Until The Prophet is flooded with sightings of dead people. Until Robards throws himself on his sword. Until Ron turns on his own family. Until Harry scarcely trusts his own reflection in the mirror and trusts the stranger in his bed even less.
Until all that stands between war and peace is Harry, a name plate, a stadium of murderers, and Draco Malfoy.
W — What’s Mine is Yours by @fluxweeed (E, 17k words)
Harry loses something important. Malfoy helps him get it back.
X — Ex Nihilo (And Other Feats of An Untrained Veela) by Kandakicksass (E, 129k words)
Ever since returning to Hogwarts, Harry has had nothing to do with Draco Malfoy, who exists at the bottom of the social ladder and is just trying to survive their "eighth year."
One veela presentation (and Harry's natural resistance to veela allure) changes all of that.
Y — Yours is the Earth (Hold On, Hold On) by chickenlivesinpumpkin (E, 127k words)
After a serious accident in the Forbidden Forest, Draco's personality begins to undergo subtle changes. At first, Harry credits this to a new enthusiasm for life. But as the days pass and Draco's behavior becomes more and more mysterious, Harry begins to suspect that something bigger--and darker--is at work.
Z — Zenith by @corvuscrowned (E, 20.6k words)
Desperate to find relief from worsening migraines and broken magic, Harry sets out to reach mystical hot springs that are said to grant healing and realignment.
The only problem? The springs lie deep within a cursed forest that lures hikers to their death by tempting them with their greatest desires.
So when Harry sees Draco Malfoy in the forest, he must be hallucinating.
Or: A hero’s journey but gay.
