dronarry fest fic claim: trillium

trillum | E | 13.4k

It’s a typical Friday night.

They’re in their usual Diagon haunt, getting slowly tipsy on craft beer, eating artisanal crisps, talking shite. Normal.

Ron sucks cheese and onion dust from his fingers and stares at the new gold hoop in Harry’s right earlobe as Harry waxes lyrical over some Muggle record Ron’s never heard of when in barges Draco, thirty minutes late, dragging in armfuls of heavy canvas bags bulging with paperwork. 

Draco shoves them beneath the table, knocking carelessly against Ron’s ankles, and when he stands, he blows his pale fringe from his forehead, places his hands on his hips, and announces, “I just quit my job.”

He picks up Ron’s pint and downs the last half, one hand curled over Ron’s shoulder for balance, his thumb warm where it presses against the skin of Ron’s throat.

Murmurs erupt. Questions are posed.

“Good for you, mate,” Ron says, but instead of listening to Draco talk about how good it feels to finally be free from the cruel and tedious clutches of Magical Maintenance, Ron watches Harry instead, trying to read the subtle shifts in his expression. 

The ‘o’ of his mouth. The furrow of his brow. The way his fingers twitch against his glass.

And then, Harry asks it. The question that gives him away—or, rather, the question that gives him away to Ron:

“What are you going to do now?”

He sounds far too curious and incredulous for his own good. He might as well have asked, why didn’t you talk to me about this first?

Ron’s not sure anyone else knows what’s going on, but he’s no fool. It’s all in plain sight, if one looks hard enough (and Ron always does): the sneaking glances, the hand brushes that linger far longer than a hand brush ought to, the tender shoulder touches. The way they’ve both been carrying the same shagged-out glow for weeks.

They’re fucking. Ron’s certain.

🌺🍃🏰🌳

The one where Harry owns a gardening business, Draco is an aspiring National Trust property owner, and Ron is far too invested in the fit of Draco’s lovely clothes and the smell of Harry’s hair. But he doesn’t fancy them or anything like that.

fic claim: the sun, shining above you

for @dronarryfest 2023!

PAIRINGS: DRONARRY, DRON, DRARRY, background DRACO/CHARLIE, background DRACO/CHARLIE/HARRY, minor CHARLIE/OMC RATING: E (rough oral sex, threesome, light degradation kink, Dom/sub dynamics) WARNINGS: References to Depression & Grief, Drinking/Drunkenness WORDCOUNT: 14.5K

Read on AO3 here!

Tags: Dragontamer Draco Malfoy, Dragontamer Harry Potter, AKA: Charlie Weasley’s Summer Camp for Misfit Toys, Hot Ron Agenda in Full Display, Draco Malfoy Has a Small Cock (and everyone loves it), Head Shaving (and everyone loves it), Spain, Norway, The Burrow, Angst & Smut, Ambiguous/Open Ending

Summary:  

Since joining up with the dragontamers, Draco counts his days in nights. Nights spent drinking in the commune mess, making poor choices he doesn't regret, for once. Nights he doesn't remember, and nights he wishes he could stop remembering. Then there's that night in Spain, caught in the circle of Ron's arms. A year of nights in Norway, caught in the heat of Harry's gaze. His first night at the Burrow, caught in between them both.

this fest was so much fun! this was my first time modding, but tbh all of the acclaim and glory and praise for this fest must go to @wolfpants for a) coming up with the idea, and b) their dedication to this fest, and keeping all the rest of us -- @sweet-s0rr0w​ @getawayfox​ @thebooktopus​ -- in line. your passion for this wonderful triad has produced such amazing content! we are all blessed!

thank you as well to @sorrybutblog and InnerLilith, for your incredible beta work, and also for your friendship. this was the first fic i’ve been able to write, let alone complete, this year, and you both were so patient as i twisted it out of that rusty old hole where my brain claims to be. thank you to @eggbagelsjr @eveningstruggle and @dumbledoodlewriting​ for your constant support and everything you do always, all of which is perfect. special thanks to EBJ, who let me take my little dron snippet and spin it up into this angsty, smutty fic that is (but of course) way longer than i expected.

finally, i’ve been told i should share the art i made to illustrate the final sex scene between our boys, so if you’d like to view that it is under the cut. be warned though, it’s very steamy.

you’re welcome

Dronarry Fest Fic: A Time, Dark and Divine

A Time, Dark and Divine

Rating: E Wordcount: 17,023 Prompt no.: Self-prompt Pairing/s: Draco/Ron/Harry Inspired by The Last Star Falling by @tackytigerfic

“Harry. Please. You know I wouldn’t ever… I wouldn’t do anything…” “You’re going to have to be quiet for me,” Harry whispers. “You don’t want to wake him up.” On a humid night in Portugal, Draco Malfoy opens a door that Ron had thought long closed.

Lavender Haze

Rating: E Prompt no.: 4 Pairing/s: Draco/Ron/Harry For @wolfpants

When Draco’s latest curse breaking assignment requires him to stay for a few weeks in the small coastal town of Devon, he expects everything to go as usual. He’ll do his standard research, visit his client’s cursed ancestral home and attempt to lift the curse, find somewhere peaceful and quiet for the duration of his stay. So what the hell is Potter and Weasley doing at the B&B that Draco will be staying in?

Dronarry Fest Week 3: Masterpost!

Phew, pals. We are at WEEK THREE of Dronarry Fest! And isn’t it fitting that the third week of this fest devoted to a triad thoroughly swept us away? This week we fixed up houses and gardens, sent sexts to our besties, rushed into danger and used our words (both equally scary), and struck out on the range. There’s lots to catch up on, so grab a mug of something delicious and settle in for a ride (as always, mind the tags!). Don’t forget to leave a kudos, leave a comment, and give our wonderful MAs some much-deserved love!

God, these three drive me bonkers in a really great way. - papercupmixmaster

THIS IS SO... LIKE... SIGH. i don't even have the words for it, because you've taken all the good words and put them into this story. - oknowkiss

I can’t. I’m in love with this Ron. Best Ron ever award. I’m serious. 🥇 - schmem_14

Ron is my absolute favorite character and I can’t believe I just read a fic where his life mirrored my own so much. It’s so extremely gratifying because I relate to Ron so, so, SO much and this just added to it. I love the Dronarry dynamic when it’s written like this. Such a beautiful fic that deeply touched me. ❤️ - audisodd
