In the Shape of Things to Come written by @academicdisasterfic​ with art by @kryptidfox​  [Explicit, 15.6k] Summary: Existential angst and chronic boredom are plaguing Harry Potter in his cushy post-war life. However, a chance encounter with a tattooed, pierced, disgruntled Draco Malfoy in the middle of Muggle Camden seems to spark something in Harry again—and he never could stay away from Malfoy.

Ft. assorted methods of body modification, eclectic but loving friends, a wide variety of grunge music, long tube rides, and a whole lot of trans love. -kryptidfox’s AO3 Art Post

Forever Was a Lie written by @thesleepiesthufflepuff with art by dustmouth [Explicit, 22k] Summary: After breaking up with Charlie, Harry heads to Rome for Christmas to search for answers to a previous heartbreak. What he doesn’t expect is for Draco, the man who broke his heart five years ago, to be running the bed and breakfast he’s staying at. -dustmouth’s AO3 Art Post

...And They Were Co-Teachers written by @goblinmatriarch with art by @betty26blue [Teen, 31.5k] Summary: Ten years after the war, Harry leads a contented life teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, with a collection of fellow new teachers keen to make some changes. When Draco Malfoy temporarily joins the staff while he finishes his Potions mastery, Harry is worried his contentment will be short-lived. -Betty26Blue’s AO3 Art Post  

Deadheading the Odd Dahlia written by @peachpety​ with art by @beyondtheclose [Explicit, 8.7k] Summary: Harry is content to spend his days at Draco’s flower stall at the farmers market, burying his true feelings in artisanal coffee and rose bouquets. When forced to find new lodgings, he accepts Draco’s offer to live in a cottage at Malfoy Manor, and his long-hidden crush blossoms out of control. Turns out, proximity makes the heart grow fonder. -beyondtheclose’s AO3 Art Post -beyondtheclose’s Tumblr Art Post

Edificabo written by @doubleappled​ with art by @iaooa​ [Explicit, 18.6k] Summary: Numb and exhausted after the war, Harry returns to the only real home he’s ever known. Hogwarts needs help, too. -Iaooa’s AO3 Art Post  

Déjà Vu written by @maesterchill​ with art by @celilasart​ [Explicit, 11k] Summary: After being released from Azkaban, Draco Malfoy begins having peculiar visions, which turn out to be premonitions. Gradually, with the help of his unusual gift, Draco becomes a rather useful member of society. He also has dirty fantasies about Harry Potter, but that's nothing new. -LLAP115′s AO3 Art Post -LLAP115′s Tumblr Art Post

The Heart Remembers written by @ladderofyears​ with art by @rasha-dee​ [Explicit, 28.7k] Summary: Harry Potter and Draco are married, in love and raising a family. Everything is wonderful but, one day, disaster befalls their happy lives. Harry is hit with a Forgetting Curse and can't remember anything about their romance. As far as he knows, Draco is still the petulant bully he knew at Hogwarts. Harry is frightened, defensive, and stuck in St Mungo's.

But Draco isn't willing to give up on his husband. This is the story of how he wins his Harry back, and helps him to regain his memories. -rasha_dee’s AO3 Art Post

Blame Is Shaped Like A Circle written by @sleepstxtic​ with art by @gnarf​ [Teen, 7.1k] Summary: Harry and Draco take you through the story of their life together. -gnarf’s AO3 Art Post -gnarf’s Tumblr Art Post

The Final Case of Auror H.J. Potter written by @pennygalleon​ with art by @caroll-in​ [Explicit, 14.6k] Summary: Ten years after he started, Harry Potter is packing up, having served his last day at the Ministry.

At least it was, until Draco Malfoy walked through the door. -herman_the_moth’s AO3 Art Post -herman_the_moth’s Tumblr Art Post

Grey Eyes & Lies written by @makeitp1nk​ with art by @veelawings​ [Explicit, 18k] Summary: Twelve years after the war, Harry returns from his post with the International Wizarding Police in the States to find everything has changed. Draco Malfoy, his nemesis and overall Bad Guy, is now uncle extraordinaire, master of desserts, and an honorary Weasley. Fit, charming, and reformed, Harry is, as always, drawn to the man, who despite his charm and gentle nature, still holds a bit of that spark Harry knows so well from their school days.

Until Harry accidentally follows him and sees things that convince him Malfoy never really changed. In his quest to prove that Malfoy is up to something, Harry gains entrance into a world where nothing is black and white, and nobody is golden. -VeelaWings’s AO3 Art Post

Monster written by @orange-peony with art by @pato-roldnart  [Explicit, 71.7k] Summary: “Hmm,” Hermione hums, tapping her index finger against her bottom lip and then smiling at Harry. “A broken music box, you say…”

“A cursed one,” Harry corrects her.

“Well, it’s still a music box that is not working properly,” Hermione points out with a very intent grin. “That will give you a chance to see him.”

She wiggles her eyebrows, making him snort.

As if Harry hadn’t thought about it straight away. As if Harry’s mind hadn’t immediately wandered to Draco Malfoy the moment Zabini mentioned a music box. -p_pato_roldnart’s NSFW AO3 Art Post -p_pato_roldnart’s Tumblr Art Post

The Troll written by @deliciousblizzardshark​​ with art by @sator-the-wanderer​​ [Mature, 5.2k] Summary: “Draco, the Aurors desperately need your help!” Harry cries, doing his best not to break into inopportune laughter. “Quick, put on this outfit.”

Draco looks askance at the shred of cloth. “This is an outfit?” he asks, dubiously.

“There’s no time!” Harry says, urgently, turning his face away so Draco can’t see him smirking. “You need to put this on and pretend to be my prisoner. Quickly! The wizarding world is depending on you!” -Sator’s AO3 Art Post

But We Could Be So Good written by @allwaswell16 with art by @chamomileteafuel [Mature, 12.6k] Summary: When Harry assigned himself to be the Malfoy family’s probationary Auror, he hadn’t anticipated he would sneak into the Malfoy Manor library, play endless games of chess, or buy an entire roomful of magical plants. And he certainly hadn’t anticipated falling in love. -camomiletea’s AO3 Art Post -camomiletea’s Tumblr Art Post

Fool Me Twice written by @sorrybutblog​ with art by dustmouth [Explicit, 38.4k] Summary: The case seemed simple: follow the corruption, bring down the source. Draco just didn’t anticipate Harry Potter crashing in, taking a break from red carpets and nudey-rudey photoshoots to make a giant mess.

Or: Draco is an Unspeakable. Potter is an (unfairly attractive) thorn in his side. Featuring: spies, action, disguises, forced proximity, pining and more! -dustmouth’s AO3 Art Post

The stuff of clouds and skies written by CreepingMyrtle with art by @ledouhua69 [Teen, 7.6k] Summary: Some people go for grand confessions of love. Some send letters, or show they care, or lock eyes and lean in. Harry gets himself cursed so badly he has no choice but to ask Draco for help, and hope it leads to happily ever after. -Jidangao’s AO3 Art Post

Fields of Gold written by @pineau-noir with art by @digthewriter [Teen, 19.2k] Summary: Draco Malfoy is content with his life, post-war. He’s got a decent job, a nice flat, and good friends.When Harry Potter is involved in a mysterious accident which causes wild speculation and gossip in the wizarding world, Draco’s world is forever changed.

A story about shedding past perceptions, learning to embrace change, and being in love. -digthewriter’s AO3 Art Post -digthewriter’s Tumblr Art Post

Spinning Fouettés written by @purplehotmess with art by Mrs_Croft [Explicit, 15.7k] Summary: After the war, two broken souls find solace in each other. But when calamity strikes, will they survive the storm or drown in the deluge?

A story of choosing someone over everything else; of fighting the whole world for the one you love. Falling in love is not enough - it is to grow in love that matters. Together. -Mrs_Croft’s AO3 Art Post

At the Doorway, On the Stair written by @dwell-the-brave with art by @p1013 [Teen, 30.7k] Summary: A year after Draco Malfoy goes missing, his mother has one last option—Harry Potter. Having left the Auror department and made a name for himself as a Private Investigator, Harry cannot help but get involved in the disappearance of Draco Malfoy. Will he discover the truth about what happened? And what could be causing all the strange disturbances at Malfoy Manor? -p1013′s AO3 Art Post

Death Comes for Us All written by @lumosatnight with art by @juliustwo [Explicit, 5.3k] Summary: Burying his face in Draco’s hair, he can smell the smoke from the cigarette, can taste the ashes lingering in his mouth. Harry finds it comforting, a reminder that Draco has seen his worst and still chooses to stay. -JuliusTwo’s AO3 Art Post

a convergence of inks written by @thebooktopus with art by @babooshkart [Explicit, 21.1k] Summary: It’s taken two years, but Draco has finally perfected a replacement for Wolfsbane. He is overjoyed when Lavender, his initial test subject, reports her transformation as less painful, less stressful, and easier to recover from. Despite these obvious improvements, the request for a Ministry trial of the new formula goes poorly when a disgruntled director cannot see past Draco’s last name.

Enter Harry, with whom Draco has been sharing a house and the responsibility of raising Teddy Lupin for the past several years. Harry has been living as a bit of a recluse, running his tattoo studio and generally avoiding the wizarding world as a rule.

A rule he’s willing to break… for Draco. -babooshk_art’s AO3 Art Post -babooshk_art’s Tumblr Art Post

Orb Power written by @maraudersaffair with art by @drarrydoodles [Explicit, 7.5k] Summary: Harry is a divorced father of three with a love for crystals. Draco owns a trinkets shop called Cricklewood’s Trifles. It’s been years since Harry laid eyes on Draco, but he knows he wants him the moment he spots him at a flea market. Draco is not so sure. -Discessio’s AO3 Art Post

Lost & Found written by @gnarf with art by @ladderofyears [Explicit, 17.9k] Summary: When Harry goes missing, Draco is the one Hermione comes to for help. An opportunity he had waited for arises, and if he found Potter through it — even better.

Little did he know that, soon, faking a relationship was the only plan they’d have to get out of this trap. Even if it’s paradise. -ladderofyears’s AO3 Art Post

Statues Crumble written by @xanthippe74 with art by @fictional [Teen, 13.6k] Summary: Between one war and the next, Draco has lost his parents, his home, and his menial Ministry job. All he has left is the secret (and anonymous) work he does to help Harry Potter overthrow another government—oh, and that statue he stole from the Ministry Atrium. -milkandhoney’s AO3 Art Post

WHISKY-TANGO-FOXTROT written by @vukovich with art by @fantalfart [Explicit, 58.8k] Summary: The worst thing about being the Golden Boy is the freebies. Free drinks. Easy sex. It’s all too easy.

The worst thing about being a Malfoy is the expectations. Marriage. Kids. It’s all so scripted.

Harry wants his arse kicked. Draco decides to grab life by the balls. -fantalf’s NSFW AO3 Art Post

To the victor goes the booty written by @alleymichaelis​ with art by @artdecielle​ [Teen, 5.6k] Summary: In retrospect, their relationship was always meant to be about rivalry. Who has the best ship? Whose ship is the most famous? Who is the better captain? Who has the biggest treasure?

Who is the better swordfighter, of course. It always circled back to that, because their first meeting began, as is natural, with a swordfight.

(It ended in so much more than professional rivalry. Or as Ginny liked to mock, in another kind of swordfight.) -Cielle_Noire’s AO3 Art Post -Cielle_Noire’s Tumblr Art Post

luminous written by @softlystarstruck with art by @pato-roldnart [Teen, 13.7k] Summary: It wasn't exactly Draco's plan to be alone with Harry Potter, the crushing weight of their own feelings, and a possibly blood-thirsty baby serpent for the next two weeks. But with Mario Kart, fashion shows, and some conversation, maybe it won't be quite as disastrous as they expect. -p_pato_roldnart’s AO3 Art Post -p_pato_roldnart’s Tumblr Art Post

eager for the sky written by @oknowkiss with art by @upthehillart [Mature, 35.4k] Summary: It was announced, just as the Triwizard Tournament had been, at the start of term feast.

A year-long, international Quidditch varsity match — the inaugural Wizarding Academy Cup.

In which Harry is Hogwarts' star Seeker, Draco is on the bench, and they both have a thing or two to learn about playing for the same team. -upthehillart’s AO3 Art Post

Only getting closer written by @digthewriter with art by @ladderofyears [Teen, 5.1k] Summary: Harry and Draco go away for one final secret vacation before coming out to their friends. -ladderofyears’s AO3 Art Post

The Unspeakable written by @the-sinking-ship with art by @peachbabypie [Explicit, 24.1k] Summary: Healer Draco Malfoy wanted the job at the International Department of Mysteries for the paycheck and the prestige. But what he got was Unspeakable Harry Potter and the most fascinating curse he’d ever seen. -Peachbabypie’s NSFW AO3 Art Post

Dreaming of Snakes written by @deathsdaisy​ with art by @chizumakiii [Explicit, 14.1k] Summary: Draco has fallen out of favor with the Dark Lord, because of his father. The Dark Lord "corrects" Draco for Lucius' mistakes. The images this brings plague Draco's dreams, but a twist in what is normally a monotonous night leaves Draco questioning some things.

Who does Draco turn out to be if his father lost the favor he had with Voldemort? If he was never a death eater, where would he go? -ChizuMaki’s NSFW AO3 Art Post

so sweet. so bitter. written by @nerdherderette with art by @sugareey-makes-stuff [Explicit, 19.8k] Summary: It's bad enough that Draco is admitted to St Mungo's. Discovering the identity of the Healer assigned to his case makes it ten times worse. -sugareey’s AO3 Art Post -sugareey’s Tumblr Art Post

What's in a Name written by JK_Terfling_Can_Suck_My_Silicone_Dick   with art by @maesterchill [General, 15.7k] Summary: Harry and Draco have been married for a decade, but no one else knows. It's time for Draco to examine why he refuses to tell anyone else. -maesterchill’s AO3 Art Post -maesterchill’s Tumblr Art Post

Chasing unicorns, finding love written by @sassy-cissa with art by @navi1088 [Explicit, 27.7k] Summary: When Auror Harry gets assigned a case of missing unicorn foals, it's bad enough that they are going missing in the Forest of Dean, a place Harry never wanted to revisit. But on top of that, Head Auror Dawlish wants to call in an expert from the Unspeakables. And of course, that expert is none other than Draco Malfoy ... -navi1088′s AO3 Art Post -navi1088′s Tumblr Art Post

If You're Cold, They’re Cold written by Dazeventura6   with art by @okay-sky [General, 7.8k] Summary: More than a decade after the war and Harry left the magical world for the muggle one he runs into a down-and-out Draco Malfoy living homeless on the streets and insists on taking him in. -OkaySky’s AO3 Art Post -OkaySky’s Tumblr Art Post

Dead Ends written by @toxik-angel with art by @melcarrianna [Explicit, 18.8k] Summary: Head Auror Harry Potter is the best at his job. Head Auror Harry Potter always saves the day.

But someone has been picking off ex-Death Eaters one by one. Someone has been abducting Harry’s friends right out of their homes. And someone is fucking the Minister for Magic.

The Minister for Magic and Head Auror are both very concerned about it. -Melcarrianna’s AO3 Art Post -Melcarrianna’s Tumblr Art Post

From Behind The Wall written by @nymphadoratonqs with art by @apriicat [Mature, 19.2k] Summary: After the war, Harry gets therapy. Draco doesn’t. They still find their way to each other. -CelestialCat’s AO3 Art Post

And Still I Dream written by @greenmegsnoham with art by @gaudium6191 [Explicit, 41.7k] Summary: Draco was beyond frustrated with the school's preferential treatment of sports programs over the arts. Determined to collect what is due, Draco must come toe to toe with the ever incessant thorn-in-his-side, Varsity Basketball Captain, Harry Potter. Though Draco may not receive the financial support he'd been hoping for, he just might get a boyfriend out of it instead…

OR

When you Dream a Dream, it just may come true… -Gaudium0Xchara’s AO3 Art Post -Gaudium0Xchara’s Tumblr Art Post

the long game written by @ayebydan with art by @inveigler81 [Mature, 5.5k] Summary: Draco has spent his life post-war building a career for his own reasons while Harry has spent his time building a home for them and Teddy. None of their friends understands. Draco’s friends think he is being taken advantage of. Harry’s friends think he is being held back. A new promotion for Draco brings it all to a head. -inveigler81′s AO3 Art Post

right where you should be written by @jokedads with art by @digthewriter [Teen, 16.3k] Summary: Harry looked down at himself. He could see that he was wearing sturdy robes in a deep red, half unbuttoned over a t-shirt he didn’t recognise. “HOLYHEAD HARPIES DO IT BETTER”, the shirt told him. He looked up at Malfoy and realised where he’d seen those robes before. “You’re wearing the same robes as me, Malfoy,” he said, “So either we’re impersonating Aurors together or someone else is having a laugh, but I don’t know which because I can’t remember anything!” -digthewriter’s AO3 Art Post

Beneath the Cloak written by @avenueofesc with art by @apriicat [Mature, 31.3k] Summary: Footsteps echo through the corridor, though they seem to hesitate, slowing until they stop directly in front of him. Draco can practically feel the presence of this other at his side. He groans, using all of his strength to raise his head and open his eyes, to see…

Nothing. -CelestialCat’s AO3 Art Post

Ever Since We Founded Rome written by @ftmshepard with art by @melcarrianna [Mature, 5.7k] Summary: Harry's missing. Draco's the only one who can find him. -Melcarrianna’s AO3 Art Post -Melcarrianna’a Tumblr Art Post

Bad Faith written by Stopme with art by @fantalfart [Explicit, 23k] Summary: There was a slight tug in the middle of his chest, pulling him forward. Harry frowned, confused and intrigued at the same time because of the odd feeling. He stopped walking and leaned back against a stone wall. His magic sparked at the same time a new tug appeared on his chest. The sense of danger crept up in his mind. Danger and fear.

But it wasn’t his fear. -fantalf’s AO3 Art Post (NSFW)

We Were Something (don't you think so?) written by @slyth-princess with art by @celilasart [Mature, 19.4k] Summary: It has been 10 years since Draco Malfoy stepped foot in London. In truth, he would have been happy to never be here again. But when your best friend since birth decides to get married and wants you by his side it isn't as if you can refuse. No matter who you might run into. Get in, get out, and never look back. He's sure he'll be fine.

Harry Potter has always been good about locking away feelings he couldn't deal with. As long as he didn't have to face them he could very easily pretend they never happened. So how was he going to handle seeing a man he had once thought could be his everything for the first time in a decade. Spoiler alert, it does not go the way he planned.

Featuring exs who aren't as sneaky as they think they are, men who don't know how to talk about their feelings, meddling friends who truly have the best intentions at heart, and a whole lot of thirsty Drarry in fancy clothes. -LLAP115′s AO3 Art Post -LLAP115′s Tumblr Art Post

All Over Again written by @aqua-myosotis with art by Mrs_Croft   [Explicit, 36.1k]  Summary: Ten years on and after 10 months of falling in and out of bed on a regular basis, they still barely talked.

New Year's Eve was supposed to be a time for new beginnings. A time for big revelations and starting the year as you meant to go on. For moving onwards and upwards...It most definitely is not supposed to end with a countdown from ten, and an empty bed.

A story from the perspectives of Harry and Draco, as they try to wade through the tangles of emotions being love can throw at you. -Mrs_Croft’s AO3 Art Post

Mushrooms of Wiltshire written by @shiftylinguini with art by @artdecielle [Teen, 5.2k] Summary: There's no point unpacking―Harry's not staying long, and besides, there's just bundled rags in his valise. The illusion of belongings, of a man heading to a new position at a prestigious manor―one beset with rumours of old magic and of impish forest dwellers causing chaos and mayhem amid the phosphorescent toadstool glow.

Bugger the job. Harry's here for the rumours. He's been chasing them for years. -Cielle_noire’s AO3 Art Post -Cielle_noire’s Tumblr Art Post

What Makes a House a Home written by @writcraft with art by @rasha-dee [Explicit, 27k] Summary: Ten years after the Battle of Hogwarts Draco Malfoy wakes up in an unfamiliar house owned by none other than Harry Potter. Even stranger is the snow in September and a night sky without any stars. Naturally it’s a matter of life and death, because isn’t it always? -rasha_dee’s AO3 Art Post

Sinking to Swim written by @pheaphilus with art by @drarrydoodles [Teen, 9.5k] Summary: When Unspeakable Malfoy gets his latest assignment at the Department of Mysteries, he can't help but curse his own luck. What are the chances that he would have to seek out the elusive Harry Potter for help?

When Draco Malfoy comes to his door, asking for his input into an ongoing project at the Ministry, Harry is skeptical. When's the last time a Malfoy did anything to help anyone but themselves, anyway? -Discessio’s AO3 Art Post

In Bad Faith written by @fencer-x with art by @secretartlair [Explicit, 62.3k] Summary: Draco Malfoy just can’t catch a break. Between the magical curse upon his bloodline, his hair misbehaving, and that strange pit full of demons in his basement that he had absolutely nothing to do with, it just hasn’t been a banner year for him. Luckily, Harry Potter is here to make things ten times worse. -SoldSeparately’s AO3 Art Post

In Bad Faith written by @fencer-x with art by @secretartlair [Explicit, 62.3k] Summary: Draco Malfoy just can’t catch a break. Between the magical curse upon his bloodline, his hair misbehaving, and that strange pit full of demons in his basement that he had absolutely nothing to do with, it just hasn’t been a banner year for him.

Drarry Art + Fic: In Bad Faith

Title: In Bad Faith Author: @fencer-x Artist: @secretartlair Pairing(s): Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy, background mentions of Ron Weasley/Hermione Granger Other Key Characters: Hermione Granger, original house-elf character Rating: Explicit Word Count: 62,000 Art Medium: Digital Era: Early post-second wizarding war with Voldemort Content/Enticements: Blood Curse, Maledictus, Demonic Pacts, Snarky Draco, Snarky Harry, Drinking, Dubious Consent (involving alcohol), Magical Creatures, House Elves, Magical Transformation, Fake Marriage, Brief Scene of Light Physical Violence, Wizarding Wedding Ceremonies, Blood Bonds, Body Horror, Dark Humour Concerning Suicide, Brief scene of magical semi-voyeurism, Top Harry, Bottom Draco, Discussion of Switching, Post-Second Wizarding War with Voldemort, POV Harry Potter, Getting Together, Fanart, Digital Art, Illustrations, Inspired by Fanart Summary: Draco Malfoy just can’t catch a break. Between the magical curse upon his bloodline, his hair misbehaving, and that strange pit full of demons in his basement that he had absolutely nothing to do with, it just hasn’t been a banner year for him. Luckily, Harry Potter is here to make things ten times worse. Author's Notes: This is my second time working with this lovely artist, and it was just as much of a treat as the first! It was a delight coming up with a premise behind the provided art and working with the artist to build a fun story together! Thanks bunches to the mods for their organization efforts and allowing me to participate, as well as to my betas A and M and my Britpicker M! Artist's Notes: I was so excited to see this fest running this year! After participating in HD Big Bang 2021 I was champing at the bit for it, many Kudos and thanks to the mods for running this fest! The coolest part of this process was discovering what my art (that I made without a certain story in mind) would inspire someone else to make into a story, how they would "explain" it. My author totally blew me out of the water with cool ideas and so. many. funny. lines. Harry calling the horrible portal of creatures I'd drawn up the "nope pit" will live with me forever. Fencer, you are always so fun to laugh about drarry with. Thank you for writing such an incredible fic and justifying my demons.

Thank you to the mods for running such a brilliant fest! Artist's Notes: Turning Time was inspired by the canon fact that the Malfoy's have a time turner and Draco would have inherited it and that with Auror!Harry (though not specified, open to interpretation) there could be lots of really cool scenarios and I though it would inspire a cool fic!

This fest is my very first @harrydracobang  ever and I couldn't have hoped for a better match than @pennygalleon 😍😍😍

I had an idea for a gorgon!Draco for years now and always secretly hoped that someone could shape it into a proper story - thanks to the RBB, Penny did exactly that and in doing so made my dreams come true!

Drarry Art + Fic: Mushrooms of Wiltshire

Title: Mushrooms of Wiltshire Author: @shiftylinguini Artist: @artdecielle Pairing: Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy Other Key Characters: Original Character Rating: Teen Word Count: 5.2k Art Medium: Digital Era: Period AU/Fae AU/ Non Canon Content/Warnings: fae au, period au, classism, folklore, dark fairytale, alternating POV, (Harry/Draco/Original Character), POV outsider, blood, kissing, magic, fae realms, mushrooms, changelings, Summary: There’s no point unpacking―Harry’s not staying long, and besides, there's just bundled rags in his valise. The illusion of belongings, of a man heading to a new position at a prestigious manor―one beset with rumours of old magic and of impish forest dwellers causing chaos and mayhem amid the phosphorescent toadstool glow.

Bugger the job. Harry's here for the rumours. He’s been chasing them for years. Author’s Notes: I fell head over heels with this art the moment I saw it, and was thrilled to have the chance (and be encouraged) to write something magical and strange and romantic and above all, muck about with dark fae lore haha! Thank you so much to Cielle_noire for creating such an evocative and captivating piece, and creating this alternate world of icy Draco and Autumnal Harry. I hope that this story has done your art justice! Artist’s Notes: Thank you so much to Shifty for pinch-hitting! I was really pleased to get paired up with you, and so flattered you claimed my art <3 also very grateful that you stepped in on such short notice to write a beautiful companion piece to my art. Pinch hitters are the stars that light the night sky, truly. Working with you was a ton of fun and a delight, I hope we get to work together again someday!

I really love fae AUs; there’s so much potential for lore and creating new ideas with familiar characters. This piece was inspired by a sort of idle wondering about what Draco and Harry might look like as fae, what their coloring might be, other features they might have, that sort of thing. I wanted to leave enough room for interpretation whether this was to be a dark fae au (as many are) or a more light-hearted story (as fairy tales have come to be associated with). Whether dangerous or dreamy, I wanted it to be enchanting to look at.

Drarry Art + Fic: All Over Again

Title: All Over Again Author: @aqua-myosotis​ Artist(s): Mrs_Croft Pairing(s): Draco/Harry, background Harry/OMC, Ron/Hermione and Ginny/Pansy, non-explicit Draco/OMC Other Key Characters: Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Pansy Parkinson, Ginny Weasley, Neville Longbottom, OMC, Blaise Zabini, Daphne Greengrass, Theo Nott, Seamus Finnegan, Dean Thomas, Anthony Goldstein Rating: Explicit Word Count: 35.1k Art Medium: Digital Era: Post-Second Wizarding War Content/Warnings: Breaking Up & Making Up, Love Confessions, Falling In Love, Jealousy, Implied/Referenced Homophobia (Lucius Malfoy), Implied/Referenced Alcohol Abuse/Alcoholism, Implied/Referenced Drug Use, Mental Health Issues, PTSD, Unhealthy Coping Mechanisms, Breakdown of Parental Relationships, Blow Jobs, Semi-Public Sex, Anal Sex, Anal Fingering, Rimming                 Summary: Ten years on and after 10 months of falling in and out of bed on a regular basis, they still barely talked.

New Year's Eve was supposed to be a time for new beginnings. A time for big revelations and starting the year as you mean to go on. For moving onwards and upwards...

It most definitely is not supposed to end with a countdown from ten, and an empty bed.

A story from the perspectives of both Harry and Draco, as they try to navigate through the tangles of emotions that only falling in love can throw at you. Author’s Notes: My first Drarry fic! I so loved writing this but I absolutely couldn't have done it without a few very special people.

Firstly, my amazing artist collaborator, whose stunning art (which you can see embedded at the end of the first chapter!) inspired his whole story.

Ols, an amazing and supportive beta and who made me feel like this was something worth reading after all. I love you, you deserve the world.

And Rory. This wouldn't have been written about you. Your support and encouragement is the very reason this fic exists. Thank you for being there right from the beginning and for propping me up when I very nearly threw in the towel. My very own cheerleader.  I don't deserve you. You are the girl of my dreams.

Artist’s Notes: I'm beyond excited to read and of course for everyone else to read what my awesome author came up with. She found a way to include the most thoughtful details.

Drarry Art + Fic: We Were Something (don't you think so?)

Title: We Were Something (don't you think so?) Author: @slyth-princess Artist: @celilasart Pairing(s): Harry/Draco (minor Blaise/Ginny, minor Ron/Hermione, minor or background relationships) Other Key Characters: Ginny, Blaise, Ron, Hermione, Pansy, Luna, Minor Characters Rating: Mature Word Count: 19.4k Art Medium: Digital Art Era: About 10 years post-war, EWE Content/Warnings: Blood and Injury, Anger Issues, Swearing, Drinking, Implied Sexual Content, Fred Weasley Lives, Meddling Friends, Interhouse Unity, Post-War, Minor Angst, Questionable Use of Canon, POV Alternating, POV Outsider, Curse Breaker Draco Malfoy, Shop Owner Harry Potter, Unusual Career, Past Harry Potter/Anthony Goldstein, Getting Back Together, Weddings, Flashbacks, Bars and Pubs, Sexual Tension, Matchmaking Summary: It has been 10 years since Draco Malfoy stepped foot in London. In truth, he would have been happy to never be here again. But when your best friend since birth decides to get married and wants you by his side it isn't as if you can refuse. No matter who you might run into. Get in, get out, and never look back. He's sure he'll be fine.

Harry Potter has always been good about locking away feelings he couldn't deal with. As long as he didn't have to face them he could very easily pretend they never happened. So how was he going to handle seeing a man he had once thought could be his everything for the first time in a decade. Spoiler alert, it does not go the way he planned.

Featuring exs who aren't as sneaky as they think they are, men who don't know how to talk about their feelings, meddling friends who truly have the best intentions at heart, and a whole lot of thirsty Drarry in fancy clothes. Author’s Notes: As my first time doing any Big Bang for this fandom I have to say I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Despite being in the middle of some massive life changes and personal setbacks, I am still very happy with how this story came out. I want to say a massive thank you to all of the mods and other participants who helped drag me limping across the finish line lol. This labor of love would not have been possible without you.

My other two major shout outs are to my amazing editor who everyday acts as cheerleader, shoulder to cry on, drill sergeant, and friend. You make me a better writer every day and I am so grateful <3

Finally, my amazing artist. From the moment I saw this incredible art I knew it was one of my top contenders. I woke up at 5am just to make sure I got what I wanted. I was that much more thrilled when I found out celilasart was my artist. We worked together for the Lights, Camera, Drarry fic just a month prior and I knew it was going to be fun. I was not wrong.

Please give her work all of the love. Additionally, she was kind enough to make me a custom scene breaker. Bonus points to anyone who can figure out the context ;) Artist’s Notes: Thank you to the mods for organising a Reverse Bang after so many years! It was so much fun to be at the starting point of the collaboration process.

I'm so happy that Slyth_Princess saw my art and decided to create a story for it I knew her work from LCDrarry 2022 where she wrote a brilliant fic inspired by "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". When we got matched for the Reverse Bang, we chatted for the next two hours about all of the fandoms we love Thank you so much for coming on this journey with me, A, and for giving our boys the happy ending they deserve!

Please check out her writing, it's wonderful!!

Drarry Art + Fic: Bad Faith

Title: Bad Faith Author: Stopme Artist: @fantalfart Pairing(s): Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy, Minor Lavender Brown/Ron Weasley Other Key Characters: Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Blaise Zabini, Severus Snape Rating: Explicit Word Count: 23k Art Medium: Digital Era: Hogwarts Era, Canon Divergence - Post-Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Content/Warnings: Underage, Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Open Ending, Anal Sex, Underage Sex, Underage Kissing, Consensual Underage Sex, Angst, Secret Relationship, Top Draco Malfoy, Bottom Harry Potter, Desperate Draco Malfoy, Hurt No Comfort, Gay Sex, Rough Sex, Canonical Character Death, Canon-Typical Violence, Established Relationship, Smut, Veela Mates, Creature Fic, Creature Draco Malfoy, Veela Draco Malfoy, Crying, Animal/Bird Death, Lies, Secrets, Betrayal Summary: There was a slight tug in the middle of his chest, pulling him forward. Harry frowned, confused and intrigued at the same time because of the odd feeling. He stopped walking and leaned back against a stone wall. His magic sparked at the same time a new tug appeared on his chest. The sense of danger crept up in his mind. Danger and fear.

But it wasn’t his fear. Author’s Notes: This was a great experience. I've participated in a few fest before, but this is the first Drarry fest I completed. Collaborating with my artist was really fun, and I hope you all love the illustration, just like I did when I first saw it. Thank you to everyone that made this fest a reality! Artist’s Notes: It was amazing drawing something a bit different from what I'm used to, and then I was blessed to find the perfect match to bring this dark thing to reality! Thank you, my dear author, for this brilliant collab, and mods for bringing this fest together.

Draco’s the only one who can find him. Author's note: Thank you to Mel for the amazing art, go check it out and give it kudos! Thank you to the Reverse Bang mods. This fic has weird corners of worldbuilding I hope you find interesting, and is strongly inspired by the kickass art. Artist’s Notes: For me this prompt was 2 things, Werewolf Harry and Veela Draco being the perfect creature pair And wings. I wanted to draw a Draco as a soft and angelic Veela and I wanted to him to have large wings.

Turns out rendering wings is a lot of tedious work lol but I feel really happy about the final product. This piece is a favorite of mine from the tip of the mountains to the tip of their toes and all the magic in between. I'm So excited for the sweet fic that has been made to go with it.

This Fest has been so wonderful to be a part of. Thank you to the Mods for making this fest the success I'm certain it is.
