Day 12. A fic with excellent banter

Author:

scrtkpr
Title: Misuse of Muggle Artifacts
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, brief mentions of other pairings
Summary: Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy don't know each other as well as they think they do. When a disastrous attempt at courtship results in the shattering of their fragile trust, they still find themselves working together in a rush to protect their secrets, their friends, and their hearts.
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 17,000

This is one of my all-time favorite fics.

"What were you thinking, grabbing me like that?"

"I was thinking I didn’t want my head bashed in. What were you thinking, Potter, sprawling on top of me? I thought you would never get up."

Potter flushed, and Draco took comfort in the fact that Potter looked every bit as humiliated as Draco privately felt.

"I meant, what were you thinking grabbing my arm in the first place."

Of course that was what Potter had meant. Draco attempted to cover his discomfort with a scathing look. "I was thinking that, considering Weasley’s recent mishap with Apparition, it would be extremely foolish to rely upon Floo travel as safe either."

"Well, it’s certainly not safe with you hanging off my arm! You’re supposed to keep your elbows tucked in, not Floo with someone dangling from one of them." Potter rubbed at a scraped wrist.

"Stop pretending you know how to Floo, Potter. You’ll embarrass yourself."

Potter’s brows drew together. "Right, next time I’ll remember to wrap myself around someone like a vine and cling for safety. That’ll be much less embarrassing."

Need I say more?

Day 13. A fic you liked when you were younger

Title: The Gift
Author: Khylaren
Fandom: Lord of the Rings
Characters: Haldir/Legolas, Merry/Pippin (implied), Frodo and the rest of the Fellowship
Rating: NC-17
Summary: The fellowship takes its rest beneath the trees of Lothlorien, but Legolas can find no peace. Haldir helps to ease his grief over the loss of Gandalf and the perils the fellowship faces, with unexpected results for them both.

I was about 19 when I discovered slash. Haldir/Legolas was my H/D back then. I think this was one of my favorite fics.

Day 11. A fic that changed your perceptions of the characters

Prompt Number: #62
Title:Things We Lost in the Storm
Author: b00kaddict
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, past Draco/OC
Summary: As the war ends, Draco saves himself by faking his own death and escapes to the Muggle world. He lives there, certain that he'll never go back to the wizarding world until... his child turns 11 and gets a very familiar letter.
Rating:PG-ish.
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Warning(s): None that I can think of, except maybe mention of past het relationship for Draco.
Epilogue compliant? Not really. Plays pretty fast and loose with canon after HBP.
Word Count:10,000+

Another Smoochfest rec. (I do love that fest!) I don't usually read Draco escapes to the Muggle world after the war fics, but this one pushed by buttons for some reason. The boys, especially Harry are perfect in this. I admire the author for her/his ability to make Harry just a bit angsty, but not overly emo. I almost didn't want him to get together with Draco so that I could have him...

Epilogue compliant? Nope. EWE. Hogwarts fic set in the "eight" year.
Word Count: 37,000

This was a difficult question, because I've never really read anything and thought, Oh,this reminds me of so-and-so. But this fic kind of reminds me of myself because I often lack faith in my abilities. If Felix Felicis really existed, I'd be the first in line to buy it.

Day 07. A fic with a wonderful kiss

Title:The ~~Seven~~ Two Potters
Author:

alaana_fair
Word Count: ~500
Rating: NC-17 eventually
Pairing: Threesome - Harry/Draco/It's-no-fun-if-I-tell-you-now!
Summary: When magic is involved, one plus one plus one doesn't necessarily equal three.

The kiss became almost possessive, much the same way Draco had fantasised Potter's kiss would be. He squeezed his eyes tightly shut and gave in to the need to pretend this was Potter. The way the man was kissing him, touching him, holding him ... it made it easier than it should have been. He let his hand thread through Potter's messy hair only to find it softer than he'd expected, just like his lips, which were tender and almost worshipful as they roamed down his jaw line, leaving an agonizing tingle in their wake.

Potter's cock was pressing against his thigh, only the smooth material of his boxers separating them, and Draco felt an urgent need to get rid of said material so he could feel Potter's cock against his bare skin. "Pants," he whispered, and pushed gently against the man's chest with the hand that wasn't tangled in his messy hair. He sat up as Potter leaned back and stripped off his pants as though they were on fire. Potter's cock bounced free and Draco propped himself up with one arm to get a better view. Few thoughts managed to get through his lust-riddled brain, but the one that prevailed was that this was Harry Potter's cock and all he wanted to do at that very moment was feel it against him. He tightened his grip on Potter's hair and pulled him forward, their cocks brushing together as Potter kissed him again, moaning Draco's name between kisses that would set a man's blood to boil. Potter's left hand wrapped around Draco's back to support him while the other trailed down his side and over his hip, stopping to grip his thigh and pull him closer. The way Potter was kissing him was almost too intimate, as if he was feeding off Draco's mixed emotions and mimicking them. If only—Draco closed his eyes, cradling Potter's head against his chest as he dared to touch his lips to the famous lightning bolt scar.

Mmm.

Day 06. A guilty pleasure fic

Title: The Young and the Restless
Author:

nursedarry
Artist:

candygram_5000
Rating: NC-17 (just)
Word Count: 17,241
Character/Pairings: Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy (mentions of Ron Weasley/Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom/Ginny Weasley)
Warnings: Sexual content, strong language. Also, this fic is unfinished. Although it stops at a natural point, there’s absolutely no resolution aside from them both getting a leg-over. There will be an ending eventually, I promise.
Summary: 6th year, AU. Boredom has set in at Hogwarts. But Harry’s life becomes anything but boring when he ends up sitting next to Draco Malfoy in class. This is mostly just fluffy smut – basically a thinly-veiled excuse to get to the good bits.

This fic is like a box of Godiva chocolates. I love everything about it. It's as if nursedarry picked my brain apart, then wrote this fic knowing exactly what makes me wet. I don't even mind that it's unfinished. (Though I do hope she'll finish it one day.)

Day 05. A fic you weren't sure you'd like but ended up loving

Title: Freedom
Author:

khasael
Pairing: Harry/Draco
Rating: NC-17
Era: ‘8th year’
Word Count ~4900
Warning(s): bdsm, spanking, flogging, dom!Harry, sub!Draco, oral sex, rough sex, bottom!Draco, top!Harry
Summary: Draco has found freedom in submission and pain, but when the chance presents itself for him to take things even further, will he be strong enough to take what he needs?
Author’s Notes: Written as a companion piece to Control.

I don't often click on fics that list flogging in the warnings, but khasael was my newest LJ friend, and I've never read anything longer than a drabble by her before, so I gave it a try. And wow. This little bit made me weak in the knees:

“You’ve never fucked anyone, have you?”

He expects indignation, perhaps embarrassment, but he doesn’t get that response. Instead, Harry marvels at him, a slow smile reaching his lips. “No.”

“Then if you want to, do it. Fuck me. Hard as you want. Press me up against the side of the tub and have your way with me.”

“Will you make noises?” is the hungry reply.

Draco restrains a smirk. “Definitely.”

GUH.

Day 04. A fic that you wish more people would read

Rent Boy Draco: An Almost Story by

lunabee34

I recced this before, but I have to mention it again here. To be honest, I can understand why people might not like this story. It's told in an unusual POV (third-third person omniscient, present tense), but that's exactly why I love it. It makes me feel like I'm listening to an H/D story being told around a campfire. Where are the marshmallows?

Day 03. A long-standing favorite fic

Title: Lupercalia, Hogwarts-style
Author:

enchanted_jae
Pairing: H/D, multiple others
Rating: NC-17
Word count: ~30k
Author's note: Written for aubergineautumn, who specifically requested a fic for Lupercalia, featuring SexLotto!Draco. I ended up setting this in a more current time, however. Lupercalia was a pagan festival celebrating the Roman fertility god Lupercus, and it was traditionally observed on February 15. Part of the festivities included the Sex Lottery, wherein young women would place their names in an urn, and bachelors would draw names out. The pair would then be sexual partners for a year. If you'd like to know more about Lupercalia, google it your damn selves. *grins*
Summary: Sixth year students at Hogwarts are celebrating Lupercalia in the traditional manner.

This fic hits just about all of my kinks -- forced bonding, Malfoy snark, school smut, a submissive Draco who pretends to be horrified by Harry's brutishness but secretly loves it... it's one of those stories I can lose myself in again and again.

Day 02. A favorite new fic (posted in the last few weeks)

Title: The Haumiaroa Magical Society for the Conservation of Indigenous Wildlife
Author: anonymous
Rating: PG-13
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco
Summary: Harry escapes to New Zealand in search of privacy and relaxation, only to find himself caring for an injured (and ungrateful) kiwi chick. After releasing the bird into the wild, he's more than a little surprised to find it waiting for him when he arrives in Peru for the second part of his vacation -- and to discover that it can spell. Poorly.
Warnings: Animagus!Draco
Word Count: 15.750 words

I'm too sleepy to give this fic the review it deserves, but it was a very enjoyable read. I love creature fics, and this is definitely one I'll be bookmarking -- creative, cute, and light on the fluff.

Day 01. A fic with a great opening

The Potter-Malfoy Problem by

who_la_hoop

The first thing Harry saw was a pair of eyes. He'd never thought of eyes as being particularly expressive before – they were just there, eye-shaped and eye-positioned, designed for looking at things and not much more. Looking at these eyes though, he rapidly changed his mind. These eyes promised death – cold, drawn-out death. Or, at the very least, a bloody nose and a headache.

Seriously, how could you not want to read more?
