Harry, re: Malfoy
Potter.
Harry/Draco Big Bang 2021 recs
Here are some of my favorite fics from @harrydracobang 2021. Listed in alphabetical order.
Bolts by @lqtraintracks [114k]
Harry joins the Hogwarts staff as the new History of Magic Professor, while Draco has already been teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts for the past year. When Samantha, a first year, is being bullied one day and throws a made-up Truth curse at her harasser, only to accidentally hit Harry instead, Harry becomes cursed to tell the truth, and not only that, he has to regularly tell it to Draco Malfoy. Samantha is clearly gifted, maybe the most powerful witch or wizard to ever come through Hogwarts, and yet she has no idea how to take the curse off. As they work to remove itâand also teach Samantha how to control a power thatâs becoming more dangerous by the dayâwill Harryâs truths become too much to handle? And will whateverâs going on with Draco just make everything exponentially worse?
Dwelling on Dreams by @the-sinking-ship [135k]
Draco thought he could avoid Potter for the duration of his brief return to England. Heâd stick to his schedule and be back home in Paris, where he belonged, in a few short months. No trouble at all. He had plenty to occupy him, what with the opening of the London branch of his successful apothecary, his innovative research, drinks with Pansy, a backlog of unread potions periodicals.
Except Head Auror Potter is everywhere â in Dracoâs chair, at his door, in his dreams. All six feet of motorbike-riding, combat-boot-wearing, sex-hair-sporting Saviour of the World packed into one unfairly fetching uniform. Potter wonât leave Draco the bloody hell alone, wonât let him breathe, let him forget, let him sleep.
Because no matter how fast Draco Malfoy runs, Harry Potter is always hot on his heels.
Game Changer by ToBoldlyGeek [69k]
Malfoy gripped his hand tightly, using it to pull Harry towards him a step. âI never had you pegged for a sore loser, Potter.â
 Once again, Harry felt that familiar anger twist in his chest, and a small part of his brain registered that it felt good.
 âObviously I know you better then,â he hissed. âIâve always known you were an arrogant prick.â
A story of love and Quidditch, not necessarily in that order.
Graceless Heart by shushu_yaoi_lj [132k]
Harry is lost and broken after the war. He has gone to countless funerals, broken up with Ginny, moved back into Grimmauld Placeâwhich feels darker and dirtier than ever before despite how much he tries to fix it. He feels lonely and desperate, but he wonât ask for help, and he still canât cry.
When he agreed to help the Aurors at Malfoy Manor over the summer, he thought that he would be breaking dark curses. Harry never thought that he would actually spend his days sorting out dusty books with Draco Malfoy, or teaching him how to cook.
Little by little, as they begin to navigate their life post-war, Harry and Draco become intimateâŠin more ways than Harry could have ever expected.
Life On Mars by @fencer-x [110k]
Harry Potter was eleven years old when he found out he was a wizard. He was twenty-one when he found out he was an alien. Or: How Harry Potter learned to stop worrying and love the democratic process.
Make Yourself by @anyaelizabethficâ [103k]
Harry just wants to be safe within the freshly painted walls of Grimmauld Place, with his friends around him. But when he hears Draco Malfoy has been spotted at the local soup kitchen, he canât help but encourage a different type of stray to come under his roof.
Nor All That Glisters by @sweet-s0rr0wâ [110k]
Lonely and frustrated on house arrest, with no prospects for the future, Draco begins brewing Felix Felicis in an attempt to improve his lot. Just in the short term, of course. He isnât a total idiot.
But before long he finds himself with a thriving business, a nice flat, some actual (albeit irritatingly Gryffindor) friends, and a very satisfying sex life. Whatâs more, no-one is hexing him in the street. And Harry Potter is single, and gorgeous, and giving Draco decidedly interested looks.
Stop taking the Felix? You must be jokingâŠ
spins madly on by asofthaven [56k]
As part of his probation, Draco Malfoy returns to Hogwarts to complete his N.E.W.T.s. Gobstones, the political machinations of the Hogwarts student body, and one Harry James Potter captures Dracoâs attention instead.
Sweeten to Taste by @bigblackdogficâ  [51k]
It starts with Dracoâs buckwheat crepes with honeyed oranges. Or maybe it starts with his porridge with toasted walnuts and homemade apple butter. Or perhaps it starts with the cinnamon buns Draco made from scratch with mascarpone icing. Harry just knows heâs hungry for more.
I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I did!
Spellbinding
Harry peels away my tailored robes; dissolves the glamour over the Dark Mark. A warm flannel to wash my face: eyeliner, rouge, lipstick sluicing down the drain.Â
In the mirror, light against dark, he sees meâvulnerable, scarred, a lifetime of mistakesâand his crooked grin shatters my defenses.Â
 âThere you are.â
For the @drarrymicrofic prompt: beguile. Thank you to @lou-isfake for being the best.

Day 156: Rhythm
When they came back for their 8th year at Hogwarts, the 8th year students were all assigned to one house, regardless of the house they'd formerly been a part of.
It honestly wasn't as bad as Harry might have imagined, mostly because everyone was simply too tired of fighting. They had all had a hard year and it seemed, for the most part, that everyone just wanted to keep to themselves.
The common room was nice enough; lots of space, comfy couches, a big fire place, bookshelves, and even a little area to store snacks.
And there was an upright piano that sat in the corner of the room. It was very rarely, if ever, used aside from the occasional plunk as a student walked past, but Harry was strangely attracted to it.
There was something about the idea of letting your fingers drift over the keys, about the act of creating something where there had been nothing only a moment prior, that Harry found immensely appealing.
So one night, when all of the other students were in bed, apparently not suffering from nightmares the way he did, Harry sat down at the piano.
It was slow going, but whenever Harry woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall back asleep, he'd wander down to the common room and cast a spell at the door to trap the noise in the room with him, and he'd play. Gradually he got better and by a few months in, he was playing things that sounded like music at the very least.
Then, on a very chilly December evening, when Harry was playing through something he'd made up in his head, he nearly jumped out of his skin when a voice said, "You haven't got the best sense of rhythm, Potter."
He spun around to see that Draco Malfoy had just entered the common room, looking a bit haggard, his face drawn and pale. And the snarky response he'd been about to fire back died on his lips. "Do you play piano?" he asked instead.
"When I was young," Malfoy replied as he headed toward the snack supply and pulled out a cauldron cake.

Wow. I love this an unfathomable amount. Just wow!
Fic: Written Proof
Title: Written Proof Creator: Anonymous Prompt: #174 Career Theme: Draco - Poet | Harry - Bakery Owner Rating: Explicit Warnings/Content Notes: Brief Mention of Violence, PTSD, Happy Ending, Getting Together, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff and Angst Summary: Dracoâs move home to Wiltshire after more than a decade is anything but easy. Heâs given up an illustrious career in journalism to pursue poetry, his motherâs health is declining, and it seems that the War isnât quite as âin the pastâ as Draco assumed. Luckily, heâs found a supportive, if unconventional, community and a local bakery to haunt that sells the most divine macarons. Too bad Harry Bloody Potter has to storm in and shake everything up, per usual. * Harry is content with his life. Really, he is. Sure, the life of an ex-professional athlete is a bit slow, but thatâs what heâd wanted when he retired from Quidditch to run his own bakery. Now, he gets to spend his days doing something that he loves in the company of his family and friends. Heâs fine to let one day bleed placidly into the next, untilâ Draco Malfoy turns up at his bakery, causes a scene about his pastries, and is maybe, probably definitely up to something. * This is a story about two people boldly chasing their happiness in spite of their fears, overcoming the chokehold of a difficult past, and learning how to communicate by whatever means necessary, be it rhymes or recipes. Word Count: 34,072 Creatorâs Notes: This fic is for @ANW815, whose love and encouragement have kept me going from the very beginning, @FrenchMarshmallow, who helped me iron out some crucial details, and @corvusvrowned, whose impeccable beta work and top-tier friendship brought it all home. All poems marked with * are original works by @softlystarstruck, who helped me find Dracoâs lyrical voice, and whose beautiful art helped expose all of Dracoâs softest parts that I tried to keep hidden under a strong, brave exterior. Thank you, Bee, for letting me include your verses. Finally, an enormous thank you to the Fan Fair modsâyouâre all superheroes and your time and effort are MUCH appreciated!! ( Written Proof )
Draco love macrons. I mean why wouldnât he love fancy French biscuits (cookies-pastries, whatever), right? And yuo need the proper fuel to write , donât you?
Harry just happens to make the best in Wiltshire, because duhhhh⊠of course he does! Fabulous fic! I loved it! Really sweet! Almost reminded me of o0ne of my favorite fic authors!

Microfic: Futures
For @drarrymicrofic prompt 'soap bubbles'. second person pov.
You will catch his eye and pretend you're up to something. The plan will seem soap-bubble flimsy in retrospect. You'll let him come to you. Resist the urge to lay yourself bare. Harry will never trust anything easy.
He will say he fell in love first; you won't correct him.
Hi Liv,
I hope youâre doing great! Iâm going through heartbreak since my person decided to move to different continent and since the only thing I follow religiously are your recs I wanted to ask you for some.
Do you know any where Draco and Harry would be struggling against outside forces keeping them apart but end up having a happy ending? Distance maybe or war or anything that makes the hearts grow fonder and the tears fall.
I know this is a pretty vague description and I understand if thereâs not much to say to that. Thank you in any case and have a nice day âš
Oh darling, first of all Iâm so sorry youâre going through this *hugs* sending love and healing vibes your way! I hope these can help a little bit, I went for emotional fics that are kinda angsty but in a very soft, wistful way. You could also check my reclists âDrarry against the worldâ and âDrarry against the oddsâ and see if anything sparks your interest? Take care đ
Relic Radiation by tackytiger (2021, M, 927 words)
Draco goes into space, leaving behind his son Scorpius (who has just started at Hogwarts, at least), and his not-quite-boyfriend Harry Potter. But Harry can't stop loving Draco just because he's approximately 408km up, in constant orbit.
Matters of the heart by nerakrose (2020, G, 5k)
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Life goes not backward by shealwaysreads (2020, T, 9k)
Harry still isnât used to gifts, but this one is different. A story of coming home, finding safe ground, and the wild courage of putting down roots.

It was his battle, yet he never hurt me, and he could have.
A Song, Incomplete by RurouniHime (2013, E, 11k)
Dracoâs photograph took up the entire top half of the Prophetâs front page. Below the photo: DRACO MALFOY DEFENDS SON OF FORMER LOVER. As if that were breaking news.
Two Zinnias and the Scent of Lemon by thestarryknight (2021, M, 16k)
The Ministry didnât turn bad overnight. Harry didnât suddenly turn rogue either. Between covert Legilimency links and Polyjuice disguises and running and running and running, Draco has forgotten what it is like to have a safe harbor that isnât a person. If thereâs an art to fighting back, then theyâll find it hand in hand.
Unfinished Business by cupiscent (2003, E, 20k)
Ten years after the War ends, Harry and Draco still haven't got their act together. But maybe it's not too late.
Us, in Lieu by Tepre (2019, E, 29k)
Teddy needs help and Harry needs funding. Draco sits in the other room and plays the piano.
The Beauty of Thestrals and Other Unseen Things by Writcraft (2019, E, 69k)
Harry has terrific friends, an amazing girlfriend and his job as Head Auror enables him to work on challenging cases and Ministry reform. He just wishes he could work out why heâs been so out of sorts.
Far From the Tree by aideomai (2020, E, 112k)
The arrival of Harry Potterâs childrenâsnapped back in time, the children themselves guessed, twenty or so yearsâwas the most interesting thing to happen at Hogwarts for years.
