Closing Time

An H/D reunion story told in four panels: 

Draco busies himself with returning his precious books to their rightful places on the groaning wooden shelves of the library when he spots a sole patron sitting in a corner reading. He starts to tell the man that the library will be closing shortly only to realise that this man is no stranger but an old acquaintance he hasn't seen in over ten years.

Fic Claim: H/D Owl Post 2020

Title: Dream by the Fire

Author: GallifreyisBurning (me!)

Rating: M

Word Count: 11,431

Warnings: None

Summary: When Draco Malfoy resurfaces in England after eight years abroad—tattooed, pierced, and wanting to take over a corner of Harry's coffee shop to work on a writing project—Harry can't help but be intrigued. Where has he been? What is he working on? Why here? And why does he have to look so stupidly hot with all those tattoos?

A/N: That’s right, I wrote, not one, but TWO extremely fluffy Christmas fics this year! I’m so glad to finally be able to claim this one. Writing for @atgranger was an absolute delight. Thanks to the @hdowlpost mods for putting everything together!

Fic Rec!

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Title: The Perfect Match

Author: @nerdherderette for @hdowlpost

Word Count: 16.5k

Pairing: Harry/Draco

Content/Enticements: Game shows, dating, mutual pining, Auror partners, Romance, kissing, mild sexual content.

Summary: After a disastrous blind date lands him an unflattering headline in the Prophet, Harry's friends convince him that being a contestant on a wizarding dating show couldn't be any worse.

My thoughts: Omg omg omfuckingg!!!!

Okay. Okay. I can keep my chill. (I cannot.) This fic, you guys-- THIS FIC!!! I participated in this year's @hdowlpost fest, a lowkey holiday gift exchange, and when I threw out the prompt of "magical dating game" I genuinely didn't have any clue what extraordinary things my anon gifter would be able to do with it.

Now, to be fair, it's tailored to a lot of my fic likes: humor and banter, pining, Auror partners drarry, fun magical theory, UST. (The list goes on. Lol) But even if it hadn't been, even if it had been something that didn't have any of my fallback drive-me-happy/crazy things in it, god -- the writing itself would have been enough. It was funny and sharp and fantastically characterized, and I want to stitch it on a quilt and wrap myself up in it, istg. (Well. I'd hire someone else to, because I don't have a shred of crafting talent. But still.)

This fic was to die for, and I'm giddy right now, legit giddy that it was written for me. It has got to be admired and loved by everyone else too, so oh please, go read the thing! 😍😍

Reblogging for reveals!!! The splendid @nerdherderette wrote this divine thing for me!!! *screams for 10,000 years* ❤❤❤❤
