So one of my favorite people in fandom is having a birthday! Sara is a fantastic writer who is constantly pushing her creative boundaries. Here are ten fics ranging from short to midlength plus one longfic to get you started.
Thank you for being my friend!! Hopefully next year we will be toasting in a dive bar.
bright recursions - H/D, M, 400 words, MCD - I think the unanswered questions in this one just make it sting more.
every man in here wishin’ - H/D, E, ~2k - super sexy roleplay!
The Floo that Binds - H/D, G, 675 words - so cute!!! We stan Edith.
he touched me, so I live to know - H/D, M, ~5k - a very touching (forgive the pun) ace!Harry exploration.
Just Drive - Diana/Clark/Bruce, G, 400 words - I don’t even go here, but I adored the cute banter in this fic.
like father, like son - H/D, Draco/Albus, E, ~8k, dubcon - tangled and deliciously complicated.
there is a season to everything - Luna/Ginny, T, 1.5k, - Luna and Ginny look back and discuss their decision to not have children, which hit me right in the feels.
touch me, touch the sky - H/D, E, 34k - a worthy Erised entry that weaves veela, creature and casefic all together.
Transsubstantiatio - H/D, M, 516 words - yes, loving cannibalism IS a tag!
you are my fire (my one desire) - H/D, E, 258 words - *elmofireemoji* praisekink!
This is the follow up to my Tuesday post - the Tuesday TLC Zone, with a little rec list of all the wonderful morsels you all shared. (My original plan was to send the tag game out on Tuesdays, and the rec lists on the weekends, but we’ve had such wonderful responses, so I think we’ll alternate!)
Didn’t get a chance to share? Look out next week! I’ll be sending the game around again to collect some more recs.
I haven’t read most of these yet, so mind the tags and please enjoy :D
[ETA: I’m updating the graphics so they’re consistent!]

Draco finds Harry at a house party.
I’ll Be Good (Drarry) by @not-his-glass-of-tea / ThisClassIsRiddikulus
{ NR | 2020 | 2k }
Harry had never been good with words… maybe that’s why he did what he did next. Because suddenly he couldn’t see any way to stop Malfoy from jumping.
Based on the song "I'll Be Good" by Jaymes Young.
Just For You (Drarry) by @slytherinnbitch
{ M | 2020 | 28k }
It's Draco and Harry's fifth marriage anniversary. But something drastic happens which makes Harry rethinks his career choice. Find how this accident makes them take one of the best decisions of their lives.......
Idk if that still holds true, I mean I have no idea what i did with this fic.
Too much mystery on what they do and what happens?
This is the first Drarry Fanfic I'm writing, where there are no boundaries, no limitations and I'm trying out my wildest imagination on this. Hope you all like it
Forever Yours/Yours Forever (Wolfstar) by @onbeinganangel
{ M | 2020 | 3k }
It all starts with Sirius stuck in Grimmauld Place watching the love of his life fall in love with his cousin. He's... what is it the kids say these days? Ah, yes, straight up not having a good time.
Beauty (Gen - Draco-centric) by @skeptiquexx
{ T | 2020 | 2k }
The walls of Draco Malfoy's Muggle apartment were bare and he needed to fix it.
like father, like son (Dralbus/Drarry) by @glittering-git
{ E | 2019 | 8k }
Draco had moved to Paris to escape the post-War scrutiny. He’d been living a quiet life until a certain Mr Potter showed up.
Sleepy Smiles (Linny) by @phenomenalasterisk
{ G | 2020 | 550 }
“You missed the movie, love.” Ginny says quietly, pressing her lips against her hair in a brief kiss.
Luna tucks her head further into Ginny’s neck and murmurs back, “I woke up for the best part.”
OR Ginny carries Luna to bed. Soft, sweet, and short bit of domestic fluff.
In the Midnight Blue (Drarry) by @xanthippe74
{ T | 2020 | 5k }
On a Christmas Eve broom ride over Hogwarts, Harry shows Draco that he’s braver than he thinks.
Some Assembly Required (Drarry) by @peachpety
{ E | 2020 | 7k }
A relationship must occasionally endure a test of strength, be it confronting an ex, or meeting the in-laws. Sometimes, however, an inanimate object can make or break a couple. Harry and Draco’s relationship is put to the test when they attempt to assemble a piece of IKEA furniture.
La Lune (Drarry) by @thesleepiesthufflepuff / Bluefay
{ T | 2020 | 7k }
When Harry and Draco's neighbors start dropping like flies, the last thing they expect is to be hunted down themselves.
Four Years and a Day (Drarry) by @elvenwinters
{ T | 2021 | 1.5k }
What's happening to Draco Malfoy?
A Forever Kind of Love (Drarry) by @curlyy-hair-dont-care
{ G | 2021 | 1.5k }
The one where Harry and Draco are in a secret relationship. And Arthur Weasley is more observant than everyone else.
Invitation Microfic (Drarry) by @placate-flakeout
{ 2021 | 150 }
“Are you going to invite me in?” Harry leans against the door frame. His mouth tugs up almost indiscernibly so. “You look good.” [adding the first line as summary --Starry]
Love is a Banquet on Which We Feed (Wolfstar) by @samunderthelights
{ G | 2020 | 3k }
Sirius sneaks his record player into Hogwarts, and after learning that Remus doesn't know any of his Muggle music, he decides to share all of his favourite songs with him.
Pivotal (Drarry) by @stripedsilverfeline / tigersilver
{ T | 2018 | 18k }
Unspeakables use the Pensieve Protocol often, routinely. But Draco Malfoy may be using it a little more than is advisable.
Announcements & Bets (Drarry) by @devilrising
{ T | 2020 | 5k }
Harry’s life in his Eighth Year is bullshit, in his opinion. He doesn’t want to waste his life away at Hogwarts any longer than necessary. But does Malfoy have anything to do with that?
Trans (Male) Gay Flag (Art) by @diamondpride
{ 2020 }
Diamondpride’s custom pride flag design! [adding a description as summary --Starry]
The Bachelors & Bachelorettes of Stardew Valley as Cats (Art - Elliott/Sam) by @uby-victor
{ 2021 }
Sweet sunset fanart! [adding a description as summary --Starry]
Dirty Dueling (Dralbus) by @veelawings
{ E | 2020 | 6k }
Rated E | Drarry | WC: 6761 | Written for Kinkfest 2017 (Kink: Narratophilia)
In a game of Truth or Dare, Harry chooses Dare and ends up having to Floo-call Seeing Stars, the wizarding version of a phone sex company. Draco loses a bet and has to work at Seeing Stars.
Seeing Stars was such a joy to read! I loved the characterizations of everyone involved - Harry, Draco, Hermione, Pansy, and Charlie - and the dialogue was fantastic. I’m a sucker for the ‘falling for each other under secret names’ trope and glitter did it perfectly. this is a sweet, delicious oneshot perfect for anyone looking for a palate cleanser or a day-maker.
bonus: check out ChuckAl’s stunning art of the first phone call!

if I were an alien from another planet, what would you show me to either a) save humanity OR b) destroy humanity?? Thank you for indulging me in this unhinged ask 💜
i could not possibly explain the selection of images below but im showing the aliens these and letting them decide if we should b smited or not
3. Which of your fics was most different from what you usually write?
I think the obvious choice is Find your own heaven since I rarely even read AUs, let alone write them (also, like I mentioned in my previous ask, while I enjoy the second person POV I haven’t done it much). But I had to go through with this idea (if only to make Etalice cry).
But also my newly posted This feeling inside is different in that I’ve never tried to write epistolary before, and it was really fun exploring Harry’s mind and try to navigate his bisexual awakening. And both fics were a struggle how to portray the smut in a realistic way without getting into too much detail
Hi!! If you’re doing book asks, can I get 4, 10, and 25?! Pls and thank you 🥰
Did you discover any new authors that you love this year?
Yes! Right before this year went completely off the rails, I managed to go to London with a fellow book loving friend, where we spent hours in bookshops, as you do. I picked up a couple books, and they were all great! The two authors I’m following for new releases are Natasha Pulley (she has one on the way for May next year!) and Kate Mascarenhas (her latest book was published in November and I’m expecting to unpack it come Christmas. I dropped a lot of hints.)
What reading goals do you have for next year?
Make more time to read, really! You’d expect a librarian to read a lot, but honestly - we do not read at work, and at home it often is the first activity to be dropped in favour of housework or drawing. I’m planning to make myself a proper reading nook next year.
Happy birthday, my dear! I hope you had a fabulous day full of delicious treats and happiness! I am so thankful for your presence in fandom and for your friendship <33
Thank you so much! I’m very thankful for your friendship too ❤️❤️❤️
Hi! For the color ask, Prussian blue and lilac?! Thank you 💕
Hi, @glittering-git! 💜
prussian blue: what's your first choice at the vending machine
If I’m getting something from a vending machine, I got stuck out somewhere too long without a proper meal, I’m too far from a place to get one immediately, and my brain is crashing. I’ll usually go for peanut M&Ms in that case. Little sugar, little protein to carry me for a bit.
lilac: dogs, cats, or fish?
Caaaaaaaats. All the cats. Big cats, teeny cats, all ‘em in between. 😍😍😍
Thanks for the asks! ❤️🌹❤️
