Last year (2019), I launched fully into the Damione ship and embarked on a personal 10-fest challenge. I scraped by at exactly 10 fests and 2 drabbles. Yesss. And now for a year of no fests. (Does it count if I committed to one due in 2020 before the year ended?)

Revenge is a dish best served cold. In the icy reaches of the Himalayas, years after their ill-conceived affair, Hermione plots out the steps to her revenge with a few old friends. It just so happens that things don’t turn out exactly the way she plans, not when tempers are running so hot.

5. TheMourningMadam’s Once Upon a Time Fairy Tale Fest: How to Date an Idiotic Pureblood Wizard

2. DFW Trope Fest: Pinned
Draco doesn't know what he's expecting when he follows Blaise down a dark alley, but it certainly isn't this. For a man with an addictive personality, this isn't going to turn out well. Assigned trope: Voyeurism. Heed the trigger warnings. WIP.
1. Twistmas - A Dark Xmas Fest: Mirror, Mirror
1999. Eighth year. Something's different about Draco Malfoy. He's kind and courteous, and he even smiles. Ginny is convinced something's wrong with him, but Hermione would rather believe the best of him. He's changed for the better, right? Or perhaps it's something a bit more sinister…
AND two Fairest of the Rare RarePair Drabbles:

Girl of Sun and Summer
