Scorbus Fest 2020 Masterlist
Break The Ice (T, 7.7k) by Honeysworks
Prompt: Scorpius is a figure skater, Albus plays ice hockey. They train at the same ice rink. Albus finds himself looking for excuses to hang about in the locker room after training just so he can bump into Scorpius.
An Issue of a Dragon (G, 5.7) by @truemeg
Albus returns to school with an extra little something in a box: a dragon. Albus is confident he can take care of it on his own. But Scorpius knows better.
A Million Times (M, 14k) by bellatrix187 @greenandgreyeyes
Albus has been pining after his best friend for two years now. After almost a week of house-sitting with Scorpius for his parentsâ friends Dean and Seamus, he has had enough of keeping it inside him. He has no idea what Scorpius is feeling, how to bring it up, or what it will mean for them, but will the discovery of a few dirty magazines spark a conversation about their sexualities and force him to confess?
Turning Circles (T, 38k) by roonilwazlib @xpectopatronerd
Scorpius is a figure skater, Albus plays junior hockey. A random schedule change causes them to bump into each other for the first time - and from there, itâs a slippery slope into mutual pining and endless maybes. They might train at the same rink, but will any of them be brave enough to break the ice?
Featuring secrets, crushes, secret crushes and everyoneâs favourite Father of the Year, Draco Malfoy at his very finest. This is basically forty thousand words of fluff and fun, set in a Muggle AU in the North of England.
Our Golden Age (E, 2.6k) by @ladderofyears
Scorpius Malfoy is sixty years old and has just lost his wife Cecily after a long marriage. His best-friend of many decades Albus Potter comes to stay with him at Malfoy Manor.
You Being Okay Is All That Matters (G, 3.4k) by @accioscorp
A final shift before a well deserved break for Scorpius is flipped upside down when an accident at the local creatures sanctuary sends Saint Mungoâs into chaos but Scorpiusâ mind is only focused on one thing ⊠whether Albus is okay or not.
Five times Albus noticed a thing about Scorpius and one time he didnât (M, 4.4k) by @eleonorapoe
Albus has known Scorpius his whole life. He knows how he likes his sandwiches, which side he falls asleep on, the noise he makes when laughing his ass off. Until one day, on âThe Morning of Bed Headâ, Albus discovers there are things about Scorpius that can still surprise him. They say the third timeâs a charm, but it takes Albus five times to realize that he hadnât noticed the most important thing about Scorpius at all.
Iâd Take Every Jump For You (G, 12.7k) by Augurey_ray
Scorpius is a dressage rider and spends every second of his free time at the stables. Albus? Albus isnât as much of a fan. One day their paths cross and, well, they have their hurdles.
Five Times Things Did Not Work Out as Planned, and One Time They Did (G, 11.3k) by WhenSheReads
Pretty much what the title saysâthings may not always work out for Scorpius and Albus, but that doesnât mean things are bad.
Different kinds of âaddictionsâ (G, 7.3k) by @sapphicfangirll
After a fight with James, Albus rushes to Malfoy Manor to seek comfort from his favourite blonde. Once he goes back home Albus might just realise that thereâs more to his brother than meets the eye.
(This one-shot involves two of my hcs: a)Albus having adhd b)Albus knowing sign language; itâs the first in a series of one-shots centered around adhd!Al)
brainfunks and cereal (G, 1.1k) by ivermectin
In which Albus worries, and Scorpius reassures him.
Under False Pretenses (G, 7.2k) by scorperion21
Albus Potter is a highly trained magizoologist, but heâs not opposed to a little help from a Creature Healer every now and again if absolutely necessaryâŠ
Scorpius Malfoy doesnât need to know that the only reason Albus keeps calling on him is because of his all-consuming crush. Does he?
A Force To Be Reckoned With (G, 7.3k) by @rinrin-obliviate
Lily Luna Potter was a force to be reckoned with.
At least, that was how she viewed herself. Being the youngest, she was responsible for carrying four brain cellsâone for her, one for Albus, and two extra ones for James. She was blunt but tactful, short but unrelenting, but mostly, she was brave but not stupid.
So when Albus landed himself in trouble more serious than time-turners and world domination, it was Lily who just had to help her brother pull his actual shit together.
She shot a last, warning glance at James. âIâd like to be your voice of reason at this point, but right now Iâm sleepy and I need to go to bed.â She turned to Lily. âTry not to let your brother blow up the whole school.â
She unblinkingly returned Roseâs gaze. âWhich brother?â
The One in Which Albus Should Have Been a Bit More Clear (M, 2.1k) by ringelchen @lordofthegoods
Albus just wants to be a good friend and deliver a love letter to Scorpius. It doesnât quite go as planned.
Edible Flowers (T, 21k) by @littlerose13writes
Albus Potter has grown up in the wizarding world, has been around magic all his life and is used to the eccentricities being a teenage wizard can bring. But when heâs struck down with muggle flu, he wakes up in a world that seems to have turned upside down.
His sister is a bully, Polly Chapman is his friend and, weirdest of all, his best friend Scorpius suddenly seems to be his boyfriend. Albus would quite like to get back to normality in time for the fifth year Summer Ball if thatâs not too much to ask.
i want to be the only one (but you are) ; scorbus (T, 5k) by dungeondreams
albus isnât the fondest of physical touch with most people. luckily scorpius malfoy isnât most people. (alternatively; albus is kinda touch starved and scorpius is more than happy to change that.)
lemonade roses (T, 40k) by @dustyspines
By some calamitous twist of fate, Albus Potter finds himself faced with the realisation that heâs not okay; his sleep has been hijacked by vivid nightmares detailing the night his life fell apart on the Quidditch pitch, his sense of self is slipping away as he drowns in a sea of expectations, and his relationships begin to fracture when the vicious ghost of inevitability snaps at his heels. The solution should be simple: break up with Scorpius Malfoy. But this is Albus Potter, and nothing in his life has ever been simple, so why should that change now?
this is me trying (M, 15k) by @fidgetyweirdo
Just a few weeks ago, Scorpiusâs life was on stable footing - perfect grades, infatuation with a brilliant woman, and, most importantly, his best mate, Albus, at his side. But when Albus kisses him and Scorpius is left with no choice but to break his heart, for the first time since they met, the future of their friendship is in question. Scorpius canât lose him, though. So even if it involves blundering through awkward conversations and setting up multiple, disastrous blind dates, Scorpius wonât stop trying.
Amuse Me (G, 19k) by @rinrin-obliviate
Albus didnât really find amusement parks entertaining.
Even with Scorpius Malfoy spending the entire day with him, Albus never really fancied the concept of crowded areas, roller coasters that would intentionally plummet you to death, or rigged carnival games that served nothing but stuffed toys and candy floss. Honestly, if him falling for his best mate was not going to be the death of him, this one was.
He just wanted to survive the day.
My reason within (T, 9.7k) by Patronuslight7
Albus and Scorpius have now seen their Patronus forms. One of them is completely disheartened, the other hasnât given up trying to explain just yet.
A special day (G, 6.3k) by @sapphicfangirll
The one where Albus hyperfixates on pjo, Scorbus and their favourite third wheel go to muggle comic con, they make some new friends and they might just participate in the cosplay contest. Ft trans!Scorpius, adhd!Al and questioning Albus+nonbinary boy!Al who uses he/they pronouns.
I Pour Light Into You (G, 4.5k) by @motherofmercury
Albus is a top Magizoologist and is assigned a new and exotic creature that spits toxins, landing him in St. Mungoâs. His husband, Scorpius, is the Healer in charge of his recovery, leading to some small angst and much hair stroking.
A Love Like Old Boots (T, 20k) by @thealmostrhetoricalquestion
Each time Scorpius glanced his way, Albus made sure to smile as though nothing was amiss. As though it wasnât exceptionally odd to come out of your morning lesson and find your ex-boyfriend of three years standing in the grass with his hands in his pockets, waiting for you.
To be a Boy (E, 17.8k) by @shipperysails-bookofspells
Scorpiusâ life was perfect. He was talented at school, had the best friend anyone could ask for, and his boyfriend, Albus Potter, was making him happier than heâd ever dreamed possible.
But all of that began to unravel when suppressed insecurities are brought to light, causing Scorpius to question what it means to be a boy.
Same Order Every Time (G, 2.1k) by evie_adams273
Albus didnât want to take the job as a barista. He hadnât intended to have it for this long. Not because he actively disliked it. Simply because it was so dull. At this point, he knew who all the regulars were. He knew every second of every day. Until today.
Albusâ oral fixation (G) by @eleonorapoe
Albus has a bad habit of chewing on his hoodie lace which makes Scorpius unable to focus on studying.
What Happened In the Weeds (G) by @motherofmercury
Just two soft boys kissing in a field for scorbusfest!
something you didnât even have a name for (G) by @lumoshyperion
A tender moment shared between two boys in love, inspired by a Richard Siken poem.
until you hear that music play again (T) by @marisdrawings
Albus is a singer/guitarist at a local pub. Scorpius is a stressed newbie in town who lands himself on the same bar as a customer. He caught himself incredibly flustered and smitten for the pubâs own singer to the point where itâs the first place he visits every night. They get to know each other, Albus offers to be Scorpiusâs guide in exploring the whole city, and the rest is history. (prompt by @rinrin-obliviate)
