A Gift of True Esteem (Drarry Podfic, 5 hours 37 minutes)
I'm so excited to finally put this out into the world. Please indulge me in a little backstory ...
Last summer, I participated in @harryjamespotterweek - 7 Harry-centric podfics in 7 days. I recorded an adorable little Drarry fic called "Without Pretense" (AO3, Spotify) written by @teledild0nix. I was surprised and thrilled to receive a secret message from their partner not long after, asking me to record this fic as an anniversary present for them. He wanted to surprise them by just starting to play it on their road trip to see Beyonce. How cute is that??? Of course, I said yes and I was even more on board when I read it and it checked many of my favorite boxes.
Hogwarts Professors Drarry ✅
Adorable magical creatures with unique personalities ✅
Major sapiosexual vibes ✅
#HogwartsEducationalReform and discussion of pedagogy ✅
Excellent queer representation (🖕 JKR) ✅
Cozy holiday vibes ✅
Plus a lot of other things I never knew I needed ...
So thank you @teledild0nix for writing this perfect little fic, thank you to their partner for asking me to record it (and happy anniversary to you both!), and thank you all in advance for listening. 💖 Without further ado ...

This has been a wonderful week! Thanks for joining me in showing some love to our favorite birthday boy! ❤️❤️❤️
Healer Harry Potter has been pining after his former-professor-turned-occasional-consultant-colleague Severus for a while now, but he doesn't believe anything will come out of it. Turns out, his children, Jamie, Al and Lily, have a surprise for his birthday — will he like it?
Fic:
Harry Potter & Friends (Gen Fics)
📖 Brunch - Know_It_All_2008 / @kiraannwrites | G | 798
Entry for Harry James Potter Week over on tumblr.
Meeting Hermione and Ron for lunch as just routine at this point.
That doesn't mean it's not his favorite part of the week.
📖 Fading Balm - Poljupci / @poljupci | T | 1.3k
The War is over and Harry is ready to leave it behind him. In the small bedroom of their even smaller apartment, half-naked, he, Ron and Hermione take the first step.
📖 First Date - emeraldlove / @givereadersahug | G | 348
"A test run, they said," mumbled Harry as he ignored the stares from judgmental strangers. "A date with your godson to see how well we get along. I'm good with children, I swear!"
Teddy cried harder.
📖 Make Our Dreams Come True - Coconutice22 / @coconutice22 | G | 595
Eight-year-old Harry and his friends plan a summertime heist.
📖 the real treasure - Poljupci / @poljupci | G | 540
After the War, there is nothing more important than sticking together. Harry and the rest of what is left of the Dumbledore's Army decide to make their commitment to their friendship a little more permanent with a few simple runes, some throwaway magic and a galleon tattooed on their skin rather than carried around in their pockets.
📖 Something Just Like This - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | G | 100
Harry's happy right where he is. A 100-word drabble on friendship and turning down destiny in a coffeeshop AU
📖 Travels - emeraldlove / @givereadersahug | G | 411
The Boy Who Lived didn't live up to the expectations that were set out for him. Instead, he chose his own path, stepping off the yellow-brick road. He hoped to never get back on.
---
Harry Potter/Charlie Weasley
📖 Endlings - Coconutice22 / @coconutice22 | E | 6.2k
Harry was eight when he decided he was in love with Charlie Weasley, the Lion Tamer. He knew he loved him even before he really knew what love was.
At 16, Harry meets Charlie again and comes to learn there's so much more to his best friend's brother than he ever guessed.
---
Harry Potter/Daphne Greengrass
📖 Daphne's Surprise - SquibNation10 | T
Daphne surprises her overworked husband with a month-long vacation cruise for his birthday. He's ecstatic until he finds out she invited Malfoy along.
From rivals to brother-in-laws. Harry's life is just perfect.
---
Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy
📖 birthdays, and how harry potter learns to love them. - pansysimp / @pansysimp | G | 347
HJP week ‘23, day 7, prompt: birthday. a tiny fic for the birthday boy. slight mention of child neglect!
check me out on tumblr! @ pansysimp
📖 Everything I Ever Wanted - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | G | 325
Twenty years after the best birthday of Harry's life, he celebrates again.
📖 First Dates and Repeated Mistakes - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | T | 1k
Harry James Potter just doesn't have a good track record when it comes to first dates. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be improving.
📖 Flashes of Joy and Agony - AlindaKB / @alindakb | T
Snippets of Harry's life in a universe where his father James didn't die but is still absent.
📖 A Glimmer of Hope - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | T | 1.6k
Once both you and your soulmate come of age, you can see shimmering sparkles, like a heat map, on things they’ve recently touched. A casual inter-house quidditch match between the returning eighth years gets a bit competitive, and Harry discovers that there's a lot more waiting for him on the other side of the war than he expected.
📖 Lick It Up - starlitsilvereyes / @starlitsilvereyes | E | 448
“You’re so good, Harry,” Draco says, hot breath fanning over the perspiration on Harry’s skin. “So good for me.”
📖 Locked Out, Let In - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | T | 2.6k
Harry's locked himself out of his floo, and can't apparate home. Draco has a house full of wet paint, drop cloths, and only one bed. Pansy is a scheming matchmaker.
📖 Love to Hate You - starlitsilvereyes / @starlitsilvereyes | E | 2k
Sex with Potter was always rough. All claws and teeth – a hand wrapped around Draco’s neck, fingernails on Draco’s hips, and Potter’s filthy mouth panting against Draco’s ear.
📖 Magic from the Start - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | T | 2.6k
A weekly brunch, a discussion of the things parents hide under their children's pillows and why, accidental magic, and the discovery that Harry James Potter has been this way since the beginning.
📖 morning after - Poljupci / @poljupci | E | 533
Harry woke up naked in his bed, but not alone. Coming face to face with a naked and barely awake Draco Malfoy was… not as shocking as one might think. Having brunch with him at a trendy, muggle place is a different beast entirely.
📖 My big problem - Spelcray / @waterfalls-moon | M | 249
Harry has a problem, his attempts at a relationship never exceed three dates.
📖 Room 286 - Poljupci / @poljupci | T | 1k
While on an Auror mission in Wales, Harry and Malfoy's hotel room reservation doesn't really turn out as planned. It's more than okay, though, since Malfoy had no intention of using his own bed anyway.
📖 Sometimes, Alcohol is the Answer - jmagnabosco / @jmagnabo92 | E | 3.4k
Five years after the war, Harry needs a drinking buddy and is surprised when his enemy turns into more.
📖 A Walking Heroic History - AliceLiddle / @drarrypotterrenaissance | T | 1.2k
"Besides,” Harry said, “It seems pretty simple to me. You were a git, and I hated you. Now you’re not a git, and I love you. Easy as that.”
📖 You win. - Poljupci / @poljupci | M | 1k
After a day of birthday celebration with all his family and friends, Harry goes back home only to find out Draco has one last surprise for him.
Harry had a ball with all your wonderful creations! Thanks to everyone who participated. 🥳🥳🥳

After the war, the most important thing to Harry is his friendships, especially when he's thinking about taking a friendship to a relationship.
📖 you set my heart on fire - bellairestrella / @bellairestrella | G | 1.5k
Hermione Granger had learned that some things in life happened without any warning. Even with careful planning, surprises could still happen. Schedules could change in the blink of an eye, and she had no power over it. She wasn’t one to believe in fate (far from it) but after the past few hours, her opinion had shifted.
Or what happens when a girl gets stuck in an elevator, calls emergency services, and a sweet and handsome firefighter helps free her.
---
Harry Potter/Hermione Granger/Ron Weasley
📖 half-a-date - Poljupci / @poljupci | E | 284
Harry has been worried that the three of them starting something like this - romantic, permanent - would end at best in a horribly awkward agreement never to speak of it again, and at worst a horribly antagonistic splitting of ways. He couldn't be more wrong.
📖 SoulMates - Coconutice22 / @coconutice22 | T | 3k
Ron and Hermione are soulmates - or so everyone thinks. When Harry loses the part of him that is Voldemort, it suddenly all makes sense.
They had always done everything together, after all.
📖 undying - Poljupci / @poljupci | G | 2.6k
It's common knowledge that everyone has a soulmark - a simple string of words quoting the last thing your soulmate will say to you before their death.
But Harry has never really thought about the marks on his arms. The simple, short "You’ll be okay. I love you." has been easy to overlook, especially since they were so hard to believe at times. Not to mention that the thought of having two soulmates – a feat so rare it’s barely believable any time it happens to anybody – didn’t even cross his mind.
He’s never even got the point of it all – if someone spends their entire life with someone without even knowing whether they were ‘destined to be’, why would one moment change their entire relationship posthumously?
Except of course when the posthumous status of the relationship isn’t permanent. Except of course, when your soulmate doesn’t really die.
It's safe to say that when Ron and Hermione corner him after the Battle of Hogwarts is finished, nothing could have prepared him for the shock of finally having to deal with these circumstances.
---
Harry Potter/Katie Bell
📖 A Walk with Destiny - jmagnabosco / @jmagnabo92 | G | 1k
The day before Harry's twenty-first birthday, his teammates in the quidditch locker room tease him about not knowing about soulmates and he walks home worried about who his soulmate could be.
---
Harry Potter/Lucius Malfoy
📖 The Cane - emeraldlove / @givereadersahug | E | 431
The snake’s tongue flicked; the cane was cold against his hot skin.
The kiss seared into Percy's soul — all bites and tongues and reverence.
---
Harry Potter/Ron Weasley
📖 A Safe Place - Coconutice22 / @coconutice22 | E | 1.8k
Ron and Harry have to contend with that very common, totally normal issue of discovering that there’s only one bed. While many would just ask for a second bed, Ron and Harry use their shared neuron and decide the only way forwards is to simply share the bed.
📖 That's normal for a friendship, right? - Spelcray / @waterfalls-moon | T | 980
Harry has just discovered something, and that's perfectly normal among the best of best friends, isn't it?
---
Harry Potter/Sirius Black
📖 Photographs - emeraldlove / @givereadersahug | E | 533
Sirius Black was lanky and thin when Harry saw him again after his Third year. Life on the run did that to you. Peel you of your worth. Dismantle your defences. Mortified a proud man as he went on eating rats and digging through rubbish for food. The constant threats would cut any man down to his core. At least in Azkaban, Sirius knew peace, even if it was false.
Harry worried for him.
---
Harry Potter/Sirius Black/Severus Snape
📖 Café au lait de Harry - Coconutice22 / @coconutice22 | E | 5.7k
Two enemies have a talk over coffee about milk and other Harry things.
---
Harry Potter/Severus Snape
📖 First Dates - sillybeans | T | 1.7k
“Have I ever told you about my very first date?” he then asked.
“No, but you look like you’re about to tell me anyway.”
📖 Pathetic - emeraldlove / @givereadersahug | E | 300
It was routine now — their quarrels in class; the sneers and leers directed at each other during meals. Their fumbles and gasps and scratches.
📖 Professional Strippers - Coconutice22 / @coconutice22 | T | 6k
At Uncle Vernon’s funeral, Aunt Petunia asks Harry for a favour.
Harry’s trying to move on with his life after finishing things with Tom. Truth be told, he’s not trying very hard.
---
Harry Potter/Voldemort
📖 Presentation - emeraldlove / @givereadersahug | E | 400
It was infuriating. To be presented as a beta.
📖 the weather's not so bad in here - sillybeans | E | 3.9k
An evil wizard holds his chosen one hostage – trapped inside a tower, like Rapunzel.
Except this time, no prince comes to the rescue.

Crossover
Harry celebrates his birthday with his found family.
Once Upon a Time
📖 Different Magic, Same Found Family - jmagnabosco / @jmagnabo92 | G | 948
Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy
Podfic:
🎙️ Because You Called the Wrong Person, But He Was Into It Anyway by gracerene - Cailynwrites | E | 11 minutes
Draco has called the wrong number. Harry doesn't mind one bit.
🎙️ Sex and the Art of Castle Maintenance by birdsofshore - Cailynwrites | E | 95 minutes
"Come on, boys," Zabini drawled. "You’re only delaying the inevitable."
Trouble always had a way of finding Harry, and eighth year was obviously going to be no exception.
🎙️ Tournesol by meandminniemcg - Cailynwrites | T | 10 minutes
Harry hates vacations, they give too much chance to think of his losses. But sometimes vacations are a time to be lucky in finding the right coffeeshop...
🎙️ Tuesday Nights by firethesound - Cailynwrites | E | 93 minutes
The absolute last place Harry expected to see Malfoy was in a rundown Muggle cinema on a Tuesday night.
🎙️ Without Pretense by apliddell - Cailynwrites | G | 22 minutes
Through the huge front window of the pub, he could see Potter making for that ridiculous turquoise muggle car he borrowed from Weasley sometimes. That was curious. If he was in such a hurry, he might have just stepped into the alley between the pub and the salon next door and Disapparated. After a moment’s thought, Draco collected his own jacket and slipped out of the pub after Potter.
---
Harry Potter/Severus Snape
🎙️ Five Steps to Surviving Cabin Fever by hippocrates460 - Cailynwrites | E | 45 minutes
Harry's worst nightmare comes true, instead of spending his days off lounging around his apartment he's been called in for a case. It all gets worse when the case drags on for longer than expected and Robards decides he'll need help.
🎙️ World Enough, and Time by Likelightinglass - Cailynwrites | T | 40 minutes
Soulmate clocks start ticking when you first lock eyes, and count down until your time with them is over. Harry’s starts ticking on September 1st, 1991. He has only six years, eight months, and one day.
Harry had a ball with all your wonderful creations! Thanks to everyone who participated. 🥳🥳🥳
