Is there any chance for cluefest 2024? My favorite fest!
Dear anon,
We're happy to announce that Cluefest will be back in 2024. As in previous years, prompting will happen in the second half of 2024, probably in autumn again.
It's time to reveal the secret agents of this year's H/D Cluefest.
All in all, we had almost 400k of words, over 11 hours of podfic as well as 5 Artworks, two as part of a collaboration, spread across the 26 submissions of this year.
Thank you so much to everyone who contributed in whatever fashion to make this fest such a success.
Now, here's the masterlist of H/D Cluefest 2022.
📂 [Podfic] A House on Fire, E, 01:06 h
Podficcer: LauDH8 | @laudh8
Podfic from P1013's fic, House on Fire.
For the last five years, Auror Draco Malfoy has walked into his office with hardly a glance at the illusioned window taking up the back wall. It looks out over an imagined London, a perfectly bright and brilliant view of the city that hides the smog and rain and dirt that clings to the city like a patina of time that can never be worn away. It's always a perfect summer's day with soft, white clouds that float through the painfully bright blue sky like a dream. He likes to imagine the gentle breeze that ripples the surface of the Thames brushing across his skin, since he'll never be able to actually feel it. After all, his office is located on the second floor and is, therefore, underground.
Or at least that's what he did before the seventh of October, 2009.
📂 [Art] a living thing, G, Digital Art
Artist: babooshk_art | @babooshkart
The closest house is miles away, and the red clay earth eats sound. He had married Draco, had moved here in hopes of a perfect love, a fantasy romance, but something is terribly wrong with this place. Draco is nervous, and tells Harry with his eyes not to drink the tea that his mother serves.
📂 A Love Like Salt, E, 24.6k
Author: Purplehotmess | @purplehotmess
Grimmauld Place has been acting strange; locked doors won’t open for Harry and he could swear the rooms are shifting around to trick him. Is the house just up to its old tricks or is there something more sinister afoot? And what's with all the Draco Dazes?
📂 a study in endings, E, 27k
Author: Saltwatergarden | @talkingtravesties
Auror Harry Potter is sent to investigate Malfoy Manor where Draco Malfoy has been sequestered, alone and unseen for years after his parents’ mysterious deaths. After abruptly being snowed in, Harry is trapped within the eerie manor with no company save Draco, his family’s secrets, and several ghosts. What is the Malfoy family hiding? And is Draco in on it?
📂 Blink and You’ll Miss it, M, 10k
Author: FirepawSupremacy
Lucius Malfoy is missing and Auror Harry Potter’s been assigned to the case. Really, Harry couldn’t give a toss about Lucius bloody Malfoy, but for some reason, Harry can’t help but try his best when Draco looks so excited every time they find a new lead.
Where is Lucius Malfoy and why doesn’t Harry mind looking for him as much as he thought?
📂 [podfic] Chasing Shadows, E, 09:35 h
Podficcer: lastontheboat | @lastontheboat
The murder of Lucius Malfoy seems impossible—no cause of death, no traces of spell-work, no potions in his system. The only leads Harry and his partner have are the trail of missing wizards the deeper they go. That and the help of the victim’s estranged son who now spends his time bartending at a queer-friendly Muggle pub.
A case fic featuring a closeted Harry Potter, an out-and-proud, tattooed Draco Malfoy, and a murder mystery that seems to lead to more questions than answers.
📂 Cold, M, 6.7k
Author: Steampunkserpent27 | Steampunkserpent27
When Harry suddenly falls ill due to an unknown cause, the healer informs both Harry and Draco that he is dying. Will Draco be able to save him in time?
📂 [Art] Dancing with the Enemy, G, Digital Art
Artist: Sator | @sator-the-wanderer
All across Britain magical portraits are going to sleep and not waking up again. Draco Malfoy, portrait magic expert, is tasked to assist auror Harry Potter during the investigation. Is it a curse, failing magic, or something more sinister?
📂 Draco Malfoy and the Broken Room, T, 7.3k
Author: AProfessionalProtagonist | @aprofessionalprotagonist
A drunk and morose Draco gets trapped in the Room of Hidden Things with Potter of all people. Now, he’s got to figure out how to make peace with the Golden Boy long enough to get out.
📂 F*ck!, E, 28.6k
Author: shushu_yaoi_lj | @orange-peony
Harry is trying to enjoy his busy life as a Healer (in spite of his dreadful lime green robes), when something mysterious happens. Why on earth is Auror Draco Malfoy suddenly appearing out of thin air in Harry's kitchen? And why is he always injured?
Harry needs to investigate. And also get a new pair of robes, but one thing at a time.
Just as Draco Malfoy's life seems to be getting back on track, the magic at Malfoy Manor goes haywire. One Harry Potter is assigned to the case, finding that nothing is obvious. The flare ups are unpredictable at best, downright dangerous at worst, and why has a Hogwarts first year gone missing at the same time?
Seven is the number on my door. It’s the amount of scars I bear on my chest. It’s the time I wake up every morning. Seven is how old I was when father beat me for the first time, and seven years later I felt the force of a Cruciatus by the same hands.
——
When Draco wakes up from the Incident of the DoM with no memory of what happened and what he allegedly did, he needs to find the missing pieces of his life. All between balancing his duties, his despise for the Wizarding World dearest Saviour, Longbottom, and dealing with those warm green eyes that haunt his mind.
📂 Memory Lost | You Found, E, 30k
Author: Maraudersaffair | @Maraudersaffair
After his Auror training, Harry's assigned to guard the Department of Mysteries - specifically the room where Malfoy is being held in comfortable captivity. Yet no one will tell him why, and what's more concerning? Malfoy doesn't remember Harry at all.
To uncover the mystery, Harry must travel all the way to Egypt where he discovers a magical community living in the great pyramids and a long held secret that is dangerous to anyone who knows it.
📂 My Best Friend, the Serial Killer, E, 37.3k
Author: trishjames | @thusspoketrish
Draco’s best friend and flatmate Pansy Parkinson is a lot of things: she’s beautiful, intelligent, doting, and a bit unnerving…but Draco loves her all the same, even if he has to clean up after her bloody – ah, messy romantic breakups more than usual. He doesn’t mind, after all, what are best friends for?
But Draco starts to question just how far his love can go when Pansy brings home her next victim – ah, boyfriend, Harry Potter.
Harry's in love with Draco, but it's complicated. Even more complicated than 'I'm in love with my ex-archnemesis and I get dizzy every time I see him smile'.
No matter that Harry's an Auror, and always loved a good mystery, he's still having trouble figuring Draco out. And he's the only one who can see that Draco isn't a regular human.
So, as he's done every year since he was eleven, Harry sets out to solve the mystery of 'Why is This Shit Happening to Me?'
📂 [podfic] Owl in a Day’s Work, M, 52min
Podficcer: RattleandHum | Thirdeye1234
Owls have vanished across wizarding London, but Auror Draco Malfoy is on holiday, so surely that’s someone else’s problem?
📂 [Art] Search & Find at Narcissan Blooms, T, Digital Art + 634 words
Artist & Author: gryffindorhearts & thestarryknight | @gryffindorhearts & the-starryknight
You should have known Auror Potter would be useless when you agreed to shadow him on this case. Yet, here you are, standing in Malfoy's stupid Apothecary and investigating a murder. It's up to you to solve the case, so you might as well start looking around...
A Drarry I-Spy Investigation: can you spot all four clues?
📂 surely some revelation (is at hand), M, 12.2k
Author: opalesqueopioid | @opalesqueopioid
In a dystopian society where peacekeeping dementors are employed to stamp out resistance by damaging souls of the dissidents, Draco strives to do what's right.
Or: Harry is in a cult and Draco becomes the cult leader.
📂 Swallowing the Sun, T, 6.9k
Author: Pheaphilus | @pheaphilus
Getting sent to investigate the thrilling report of Malfoy's morning paper going missing isn't high on Harry's agenda, to be honest. Malfoy's a time-waster, and a pain in the arse to the whole department.
Or is he?
📂 The Ever-Changing Room, E, 33.7k
Author: cavendishbutterfly | @cavendishbutterfly
Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter have been married for five years, and everything's grand—until Harry disappears one day without warning. He's left behind three letters and the whole of the Wixen World demanding to know where he's got to, including Draco. Unfortunately, Draco's not a very good detective. Hermione is, though.
Or: Draco travels Europe looking for their ever-elusive husband.
📂 There's a strange love inside (it's getting louder), E, 31.7k
Author: BlueSundayCake | bluesundaycake
Professors Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy have worked together at Hogwarts for ten years, and in this time they've managed to become sort-of-not-quite friends. After all, it's been fifteen years since the war and everyone is a bit tired of old rivalries. When Draco goes missing and Headmistress McGonagall asks Harry to go into the Forbidden Forest to find him, Harry doesn't think much of it. Until he both finds more than what he'd bargained for, and not what he'd originally set out to find.
📂 Twist and Turn (Until We Find Our Way Out), T, 22.2k
Author: Dexiha | @assassinsdragons
We believed it was just a myth, the Elder Wand. But over the years we have come to confirm that it is, in fact, real.
This project will contain research of the powers of the Elder Wand. We have obtained the subjects who have had the Wand in possession. Precautions have been taken to make sure no other Masters has been created during the concealment of the subjects.
At no other time in history has more than one Owner of the Elder Wand been recorded at once for a longer amount of time. We hope to learn more about why that is during this project. Because of this unique opportunity, we must make sure the subjects do not eliminate each other. The subjects’ importances in this project can not be understated.
📂 (Un)Anticipated, E, 8.4k
Author: p1013 | @p1013
Though he won't ever admit it—not even years later, when Draco's giving Harry shit about it right before they go to sleep, the bedside light just dim enough to hide the worst of his blush—it takes Harry an embarrassingly long time to realise that something is wrong. It's not like he's trying to pull regularly. If he wants to get laid, he gets laid. He is, after all, Harry Potter.
But it's not until it's a Saturday morning, and he's languidly stroking himself off in the shower with long, slow pulls that he feels deep in the pit of his stomach, that Harry realises that he's been at this for quite some time, and while it feels amazing and his toes are curling and his balls are pulled up tight…
Nothing's happening.
📂 What is this, fucking Jeopardy?, E, 20.5k
Author: lumosatnight | @lumosatnight
Draco is struck by a wayward curse of unknown origin and keeps trying to get Curse-Breaker Potter to help him. It’s rather frustrating that he seems to be so busy… and that Draco can only speak to him in questions. Draco’s at his wit’s end trying to get oblivious Potter to realise why he’s bothering him, and Harry won’t stop making obscure Muggle references. Like the last time, when he just stared at Draco before yelling “What is this, fucking Jeopardy?!” before walking away.
📂 [Art] Where is my newspaper?!, G, Digital Art
Artist: Betty26Blue | @betty26blue
Where does Draco's newspaper always disappear to? He's sure to have seen it just a minute ago. Same as the last times...
📂 winter happens, like a secret, E, 26.9k
Author: thewakeless
Shortly after moving in with Harry, Draco is repeatedly haunted by a dream. He sees snow, he sees his father’s gardens, and he feels the presence of another person, someone he yearns for. With Harry’s help, he slowly starts unravelling the mystery of the dream and discovering secrets about the Malfoys far worse than anything either of them could have imagined
Here are my favourite creations from this year's @hd-cluefest This year's anon masterlist.
[art] a living thing | G
The closest house is miles away, and the red clay earth eats sound. He had married Draco, had moved here in hopes of a perfect love, a fantasy romance, but something is terribly wrong with this place. Draco is nervous, and tells Harry with his eyes not to drink the tea that his mother serves.
The details is this are gorgeous: their clothes! I love the muted colours and the whole creepy vibe of the piece.
[art] Dancing with the enemy | G
All across Britain magical portraits are going to sleep and not waking up again. Draco Malfoy, portrait magic expert, is tasked to assist auror Harry Potter during the investigation. Is it a curse, failing magic, or something more sinister?
I love the movement and colours (especially Draco).

This is such a cool idea. An i-spy investigation that invites the audience to solve the puzzle.
[fic] Operation Dragon's Shenanigans | E | 14k
Harry's in love with Draco, but it's complicated. Even more complicated than 'I'm in love with my ex-archnemesis and I get dizzy every time I see him smile'.
This Harry is the most charming dumbass on this planet. A sparkling, witty tale of utterly oblivious plonkers and nefarious Malfoys.
[fic] Memory Lost | You Found | E | 30k
After his Auror training, Harry's assigned to guard the Department of Mysteries - specifically the room where Malfoy is being held in comfortable captivity. Yet no one will tell him why, and what's more concerning? Malfoy doesn't remember Harry at all.
Intriguing mystery with a fantastic addition to magical world building. The Drarry dynamic is scorching, especially if you like a bit of reluctant but helplessly attracted Harry.
[podfic] Owl In a Day's Work read by anon | written by @moonflower-rose | M | 52 min
Owls have vanished across wizarding London, but Auror Draco Malfoy is on holiday, so surely that’s someone else’s problem?
Such a fun fic. The way Harry is read here cracks me up. He is such a terrible flirt little shit.
[podfic] Chasing Shadows read by anon | written by manixzen | E | 9h
The murder of Lucius Malfoy seems impossible—no cause of death, no traces of spell-work, no potions in his system. The only leads Harry and his partner have are the trail of missing wizards the deeper they go. That and the help of the victim’s estranged son who now spends his time bartending at a queer-friendly Muggle pub.
A relaxed, nicely paced read that fits the story very well.
What a fantastic list, @ghaniblue! We absolutely recommend these creations, as well as all the others that our amazing participants contributed this year! 💕
Thank you to everyone who participated, read, kudosed, reblogged, and/or commented. It's all of you who make this fest amazing and so worth every minute of work! A big thank you from all of us mods; we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

Seven is the number on my door. It’s the amount of scars I bear on my chest. It’s the time I wake up every morning. Seven is how old I was when father beat me for the first time, and seven years later I felt the force of a Cruciatus by the same hands.

When Draco wakes up from the Incident of the DoM with no memory of what happened and what he allegedly did, he needs to find the missing pieces of his life. All between balancing his duties, his despise for the Wizarding World dearest Saviour, Longbottom, and dealing with those warm green eyes that haunt his mind.
📂 Memory Lost | You Found, E, 30k
After his Auror training, Harry's assigned to guard the Department of Mysteries - specifically the room where Malfoy is being held in comfortable captivity. Yet no one will tell him why, and what's more concerning? Malfoy doesn't remember Harry at all.
To uncover the mystery, Harry must travel all the way to Egypt where he discovers a magical community living in the great pyramids and a long held secret that is dangerous to anyone who knows it.
📂 My Best Friend, the Serial Killer, E, 37.3k
Draco’s best friend and flatmate Pansy Parkinson is a lot of things: she’s beautiful, intelligent, doting, and a bit unnerving…but Draco loves her all the same, even if he has to clean up after her bloody – ah, messy romantic breakups more than usual. He doesn’t mind, after all, what are best friends for?
But Draco starts to question just how far his love can go when Pansy brings home her next victim – ah, boyfriend, Harry Potter.
📂 Operation Dragon's Shenanigans, E, 14k
Harry's in love with Draco, but it's complicated. Even more complicated than 'I'm in love with my ex-archnemesis and I get dizzy every time I see him smile'.
No matter that Harry's an Auror, and always loved a good mystery, he's still having trouble figuring Draco out. And he's the only one who can see that Draco isn't a regular human.
So, as he's done every year since he was eleven, Harry sets out to solve the mystery of 'Why is This Shit Happening to Me?'

📂 Swallowing the Sun, T, 6.9k
Getting sent to investigate the thrilling report of Malfoy's morning paper going missing isn't high on Harry's agenda, to be honest. Malfoy's a time-waster, and a pain in the arse to the whole department.

📂 The Ever-Changing Room, E, 33.7k
Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter have been married for five years, and everything's grand—until Harry disappears one day without warning. He's left behind three letters and the whole of the Wixen World demanding to know where he's got to, including Draco. Unfortunately, Draco's not a very good detective. Hermione is, though.
Or: Draco travels Europe looking for their ever-elusive husband.
📂 There's a strange love inside (it's getting louder), E, 31.7k
Professors Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy have worked together at Hogwarts for ten years, and in this time they've managed to become sort-of-not-quite friends. After all, it's been fifteen years since the war and everyone is a bit tired of old rivalries. When Draco goes missing and Headmistress McGonagall asks Harry to go into the Forbidden Forest to find him, Harry doesn't think much of it. Until he both finds more than what he'd bargained for, and not what he'd originally set out to find.

We believed it was just a myth, the Elder Wand. But over the years we have come to confirm that it is, in fact, real.
This project will contain research of the powers of the Elder Wand. We have obtained the subjects who have had the Wand in possession. Precautions have been taken to make sure no other Masters has been created during the concealment of the subjects.
At no other time in history has more than one Owner of the Elder Wand been recorded at once for a longer amount of time. We hope to learn more about why that is during this project. Because of this unique opportunity, we must make sure the subjects do not eliminate each other. The subjects’ importances in this project can not be understated.

Though he won't ever admit it—not even years later, when Draco's giving Harry shit about it right before they go to sleep, the bedside light just dim enough to hide the worst of his blush—it takes Harry an embarrassingly long time to realise that something is wrong. It's not like he's trying to pull regularly. If he wants to get laid, he gets laid. He is, after all, Harry Potter.
But it's not until it's a Saturday morning, and he's languidly stroking himself off in the shower with long, slow pulls that he feels deep in the pit of his stomach, that Harry realises that he's been at this for quite some time, and while it feels amazing and his toes are curling and his balls are pulled up tight…
Nothing's happening.
📂 What is this, fucking Jeopardy?, E, 20.5k
Draco is struck by a wayward curse of unknown origin and keeps trying to get Curse-Breaker Potter to help him. It’s rather frustrating that he seems to be so busy… and that Draco can only speak to him in questions. Draco’s at his wit’s end trying to get oblivious Potter to realise why he’s bothering him, and Harry won’t stop making obscure Muggle references. Like the last time, when he just stared at Draco before yelling “What is this, fucking Jeopardy?!” before walking away.

Shortly after moving in with Harry, Draco is repeatedly haunted by a dream. He sees snow, he sees his father’s gardens, and he feels the presence of another person, someone he yearns for. With Harry’s help, he slowly starts unravelling the mystery of the dream and discovering secrets about the Malfoys far worse than anything either of them could have imagined

That and the help of the victim’s estranged son who now spends his time bartending at a queer-friendly Muggle pub.
