Not allowed a wand and being on house arrest in Malfoy Manor which magic is acting up and won't provide any tap water is a challenge but Draco makes it work. He takes advantage of the summer weather and resorts to bathing in the small stream running through the estate.
Everything would be peachy if only his parole Auror would stop timing his monthly probation visits while Draco is en déshabillé.

Summary:
Desperate to find relief from worsening migraines and broken magic, Harry sets out to reach mystical hot springs that are said to grant healing and realignment.
The only problem? The springs lie deep within a cursed forest that lures hikers to their death by tempting them with their greatest desires.
So when Harry sees Draco Malfoy in the forest, he must be hallucinating.
Right?
Or: A hero’s journey but gay.
Excerpt:
“You’re beautiful.”
Draco snorts in surprise. He actually snorts. “Did you hit your head, Potter?”
“No, really,” Harry says. “It’s a little ridiculous sometimes.”
Draco frowns, leaning away from him. “Maybe we should get going.”
“Do you really want to?” Harry asks.
Draco studies him, realization brightening his eyes. “Harry...” he says. “Do you think you’re seeing things right now?”
Harry laughs. It’s a clever trick. If he didn’t know better, he might even fall for it.
Draco shuffles out from under the blanket and sits on his knees in front of Harry, locking him with a steely gaze. “Harry,” he says. “This is real. I’m real. We’re nearly out of the forest. You aren’t seeing things.” He shakes his head hopelessly. “We should go. Your mind is turning into soup.”
Harry laughs again, if only because it’s exceptionally accurate. He feels giddy, both exhausted from the trek and his injuries and comforted by the blanket and Draco’s cool, stabilizing gaze.
“Stay,” Harry says. He shrugs off the blanket and reaches for Draco’s arm.
Draco looks down at Harry’s hand like it’s burning into him, then he meets Harry’s gaze. “You are truly among the most idiotic men I’ve ever known,” he says. “Let’s go.”
But he doesn’t move. Neither of them move.
In a few minutes, Harry will be off again, on the trail alone. In an hour, if he’s lucky, he’ll be at the springs. In a week, he’ll be back in London, newly healed or more deeply broken.
But right now, for the first and likely the last time in his life, he has the opportunity to do this — even if it can never be real.
Harry reaches slowly for Draco’s face, cupping the smooth, soft skin of his cheek and jaw. Draco freezes, his eyes boring into Harry’s in wonder. Harry closes the distance between them and kisses him softly - just enough to get a taste of Draco’s warm lips, to breathe him in deep and then release.
Harry pulls back. Draco’s eyes flicker between his rapidly. He pulls in a quick breath and holds it.
Then Draco leans forward, reconnecting their lips. Harry sighs into his mouth as Draco pushes up on his knees, deepening the kiss, one hand gripping the nape of Harry’s neck. He’s halting at first, and then Harry pushes a hesitant tongue into his mouth. Draco’s fingers tighten against Harry’s neck. He nibbles on Harry’s lower lip.
Then, in a flash, he drops his hand and pulls away as if burned.
“Fuck,” he says, drawing a hand to his brow as he stares at the ground with alarm. “Fuck,” he repeats, and climbs to his feet.
“What is it?” Harry asks, pushing the blanket off. It’s a very confusing hallucination.

2023.11 ~ Top 5 longest fics posted on AO3
1. Seagulls Cause Storms, or the Essence of Chaos by @writandromance [M, 311k]
►Alternate universes never seem as real as our own. Draco felt no differently. He never questioned whether, in a far-off knot of space, he started hating Harry Potter at eleven and never stopped. All he knew was that here and now, it was unthinkable not to love him. /// This is Draco’s story from eleven to seventeen, should the flap of a butterfly’s wing change fate just enough to coax him down a different path.
2. Recursion by @tessacrowley [E, 132k]
►A process is recursive when it defines or contains itself; e.g., the Fibonacci sequence, which determines the next number as the sum of the previous two. But not all recursive processes are mathematical. Recursion can happen in a temporal context when, for instance, the powerful magical force that is true love drags you back in time so it can create itself, endangering the fate of the Wizarding World—not to mention the very fabric of space and time—along the way.
3. Christmas Courting by Kai_Embers [M, 87k]
►‘Christmas Courting’ or ‘Yuletide Courting’ is an ancient ritual that many Pure-blood wizards - and all members of the Sacred 28 - go through when choosing their intended. [...] Draco has no family, limited prospects and a legacy he needs to live up to, so on the 1st of December his name is published on the Christmas Courting list with Blaise backing him through the process as suiters vie for his hand. The Malfoy name is still worth something in the right circles.
4. Strand's Seven Stars by @shewhomustnotbenamed [E, 83k]
►Draco seeks out the help of a detective who is known for his discretion. Despite rocky introductions, Draco and the detective, Harry Potter, become friends as Draco is forced to share very personal information that reveals more about himself than he would have ever admitted to under any other circumstance. Fortunately, Harry is not only understanding of Draco's sexual preferences but encourages him to keep doing what he loves--perhaps with Harry himself.
5. give me touch (‘cause I’ve been missing it) by yaz113 [E, 65k]
►Harry Potter is living the life he'd always dreamed about, happily married to his childhood sweetheart, Ginny Potter née Weasley and playing as the star seeker of the Montrose Magpies. One minor quidditch accident and one trip to the medical center later, Harry finds himself under the spell of Team Healer Draco Malfoy, inadvertently putting his dream life at risk.

2023 ao3 wrapped / fic review / whatever else I'm putting here
Tumblr media
@oflights, the human, the myth, the legend, has made me go look at my stats and now you have to look at them too. Tagging @jtimu @elskanellis @sillywives @sleepstxtic @maesterchill @peachydreamxx @hoko-onchi-writes @starquestingfordrarry @rainstormradish @apricitydays-lazynights @annanother-thing @uncannycerulean @drarrymyheart @mallstars so they can also feel this sweet, sweet pain (if they want).
First up, some stats!
Fics posted: 7 public, 1 currently hidden, 1 awaiting submission date + 3 tumblr microfics
Fics started (and maybe finished): 18 + 3 tumblr microfics
Word count of fics posted: 414,013
Total word count written: 513,953
Sorry, but what the actual fuck do you mean I've written over 500k words since April? Put me in restraints, truly.
My favourite fic I wrote this year: The Brightest Constellations of Our Souls
My most kudos'd fic of this year: Driving me crazy (but I'm into it)
I've also read, like, a fucking horrendous amount of fics this year. More than I think I read back when I was deep in the One Direction trenches as a teen. Getting back into writing has given me a fresh appreciation for everyone's work; it's so fucking hard to write well and everyone who puts themselves out there and does that gets an online hug from me.
After Erised reveals I'll be posting a ridiculously long list of my favourite fics that were posted in 2023. It is ... exhaustive. I should probably be embarrassed by how long it is.
But without further ado, a recap of my fics from this year.
May
Driving me crazy (but I'm into it) (8k, E) (Draco/Harry)
Draco’s fucked a lot of people. He’s fucked models, Quidditch players, members of the Wizengamot, even a Muggle actor, but none of them come quite as prettily as Harry Potter.
September
A Walk in the Woods (48k, E) (Draco/Harry)
After ending up in the Spell Damage Ward at St Mungo’s, Harry is put on mandatory holiday leave.
The catch: he has to spend it with Malfoy at his cottage deep in the woods. Harry has no idea why Malfoy agreed to host him, considering he avoided ever being alone in a room with Harry before he left for his sabbatical a year ago.
To complicate things, Harry’s enormous longstanding crush hasn’t waned at all in Malfoy’s absence.
For: HP Cottagecore Fest
The Brightest Constellations of Our Souls (256k, E) (Draco/Harry)
Harry doesn’t know how to cope after the War. The only things that make him feel even remotely normal again are taking risks while flying and fighting with Malfoy. It’s not likely to end well.
Or,
Draco becomes obsessed with ‘Wonderwall’, reads Muggle books, and drives a campervan, while Harry slowly falls in love with Draco. A story about travelling around the British Isles in the late 90s while healing deep scars.
October
Capillaries (3.6k, M) (Draco/Harry)
Draco’s Sectumsempra scars have never fully healed. He says that it’s not Harry’s fault, that he doesn’t blame him for it. Harry hears him, but he’s not sure that he believes it.
Evergreen (23k, T) (Harry/George)
“You’d better hurry up, mate, or all the good ones will have gone.” Fred leaned back and crossed his arms over his chest, clearly thinking that he’d now exceeded his allowance of brotherly wisdom for the day.
“Who are you going with then?” Harry asked suddenly. He looked between Fred and George, a thoughtful expression on his face.
Harry asks George to the Yule Ball because it’ll be a laugh and he’s in dire need of one of those. If George can continue to keep his crush under wraps it should all go swimmingly.
For: HP Rarepair Fest IV
Celestial (paint me like one of your starscapes) (30k, E) (Draco/Harry)
Draco needs a partner for an art project. The only catch is, they have to be magically compatible with him for the paints to work properly. He’s fairly certain that he knows who his partner will need to be, he’s just not sure that he wants to admit it.
For: H/D Sudsfest Lite 2023
November
November Flush (5k, E) (Draco/Harry)
Draco Malfoy might be an absolute raging arsehole, but he gives Harry exactly what he needs.
Microfics (all Draco/Harry)
From one to another, for the prompt 'follow': tumblr link
Til resentment do us part, for the prompt 'keep': tumblr link
Satiate, for the prompt 'indulge': tumblr link
Thoughts / feeling / goals for next year
Pride, slight embarrassment, love, appreciation.
For the coming year I'm excited to get stuck into writing even more. I've got so many ideas that I'm excited to work through and a fantastic community to do that with. I will need to be bullied into not signing up for more fests in the new year, so please give me a nudge if my blogging starts to look stressed. Also never be nervous to send me a message about random shit if you're on the fence!
If you have read this far, have read even a single sentence I've written this year, or have thought my Squirtle pic looks cool, I love you, I appreciate you, and I support you.
The motto for 2024? Bedcurtains. One word, not two.
Thanks for being here! ❤️

1. One Stitch at a Time by rezal [T, 25k]
►After the battle of Hogwarts and the end of the war, Harry is trying to get back on his feet, but is struggling.

Healing slowly thanks to knitting, drinking hot chocolates and making new friends, Harry will learn how to be himself again and wonder what his future could hold… And who he could spend it with.

fic claim: i kinda wanna be more than friends
Tumblr media
once upon a time, two of my dear dear friends hosted a fest, and in order to support them i submitted this fic literally three weeks late. love you guys 😘
thanks to @tackytigerfic @shealwaysreads and @maesterchill for politely allowing me to pretend that kinktober and the election were legitimate excuses for this.
Summary: Draco's managed to keep his feelings for his Auror partner tamped down neatly in a box at the back of his mind for years now. He's got everything under control, and he’s able to handle out-of-town missions and Harry's overly-familiar brand of friendship with aplomb. That is, until a trip to the Lake District in pursuit of a wealthy smuggler and an ill-timed early wakeup call shatters the walls he's so carefully built for himself.
Tags: auror partners, friends to lovers, pining, messin’ around in the shower.
Excerpt:
Draco’s a deep sleeper, normally; it’s why he didn’t mind taking the bed under the window, as light and sound don’t normally disturb him. He wakes at the exact same time every day, no alarm necessary, and once he falls asleep he’s out until his internal clock brings him back.
Last night, though, he’d had a bit too much to drink with Harry out on the terrace—he’d paid a waiter to keep bringing them bottles even though technically they weren’t supposed to be served outside the bar, and the red wine and Harry’s knee pressed against his, Harry’s laugh low in his ear, had given him fractured, confusing dreams, and something had drawn him from his slumber.
He lies still for a moment, then registers the sound of the shower running.

2023.10 ~ Top 5 longest fics posted on AO3
1. Teddy by failsfordails [E, 159k]
►And without so much as a glance back, Potter's mop of disorganized black hair vanishes among the throngs pouring into the lifts. Draco rakes his nails over his skull, vibrating with a barely-suppressed wrath, broiled passion making him feel weak in his own skin. If Potter is going to be like that... This is going to be a lot harder than he thought.
2. When You Look At Me Like That, My Darling, What Did You Expect? by i_dont_read [E, 115k]
►After his partner dies in the field in a tragic accident, Auror Harry Potter is in over his head and desperately wishing for an escape. The last thing he expects, however, is for that escape to come in the form of Draco Malfoy. [...] Harry agrees to take the position only after learning that the Ministry revoked Malfoy’s wand and relocated him to a muggle city in New York, far from the crowds and press of the wizarding world. All of Harry’s expectations go out the window the moment he lays eyes on the now grown up—and infuriatingly attractive—Draco Malfoy. Everything Harry thought he once knew about him is turned upside down, and his life along with it.
3. Yes, Boss by lord_oberon2 [E, 105k]
►Rumors of Harry Potter being cursed circulate the wizarding community. He hasn't been seen in public for months. Bored, Alchemist Draco Malfoy hires him when Potter interviews for a security guard job. He has no idea that the wild, golden glint in Potter's eyes spells nothing but trouble.
4. Little Stars in Azkaban by Umeko [E, 92k]
►Draco and his father end up in Azkaban at the war's end. Harry Potter becomes an Auror, Life goes on until a burst of accidental underage magic in the infamous Azkaban. They find an badly abused Draco and he is not alone. Where did those children come from? And is that a pregnant wizard?
5. Apples and Oranges by @poljupci [T, 76k]
►Harry and Draco play gay chicken as they recreate ten dates Draco wrote in his romance novel. Harry tries to prove that ten dates is not enough to fall in love, while Draco tries to hide that he's already in love after the first.

first sentence patterns 🏳️‍🌈
Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!
Thanks to @thecouchsofa @tackytigerfic @ghaniblue and @peachydreamxx for the tags! I loved reading yours! Been ages since i did this game - here is the previous one in Oct 2022.
Analysis: there's a mix of long and short sentences here. i can't really see a pattern except for #5 and #6 which are both "X person is doing Y thing when Z happens." Or maybe a pattern with #3, #9 and #10. (According to... / When it comes to.../The trouble with...)
“The green shirt?” Angelina asked, “or the daft purple one with the rainbow poo emojis?” - Bad omen, right? (Fred/George, dead dove fic)
Dear Deirdre, following a most unfortunate accident rendering my flat unliveable (don’t ask), an acquaintance suggested I lodge with him while Accidental Magic Reversal investigate. - Idiots, of Islington (Drarry, epistolary drabble)
According to Rose Weasley, when it comes to hitting it off with a date, there are a few questions a girl can ask that will save a lot of wasted time and energy. - Girls Just Wanna (Rose/Lavender)
It’s weird, the way it happens. - More than anything (Drarry microfic)
Draco's eyes have only just fluttered closed in that tenuous bliss seconds before orgasm when he hears the shout. - In the lining of your skin (Drarry, Sudsfest)
Malfoy is two knuckles deep inside Harry when he mentions her name. - Call if you ever get desperate (Drarry microfic)
In that moment, everything is solved. - try to fix you (Harry/Ron/Hermione, HP Snooze fest)
“So… should we talk about it?” - heaven to gaudy day (Drarry microfic)
When it comes to what the Employee Code of Conduct evasively describes as ‘personal relationships’, the Ministry of Magic adopts an antiquated policy not too dissimilar to what the Muggle Americans used to call 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'. - with your mermaid hair and your teeth so sharp (Drarry microfic)
The trouble with Harry having a genius idea about how to fix things with his high-maintenance husband was that it invariably involved Ron having to do something he really didn't want to do. - Fantasy Fulfilled (Drarry collab, this is the first line of my section, Elise wrote the actual first line!)
Who hasn't done this yet? I've seen a few but how about @skeptiquewrites @lqtraintracks @kbrick @aibidil @lettersbyelise @apricitydays-lazynights @moonflower-rose @squintclover @saxamophone @mintawasalreadytaken
