Funny I just accidentally called my fiancée Draco.

173 Upvotes

Well, I got as far as Dra-, before correcting myself (he has a ‘D’ name) but he knew exactly what I was going to say.

Lord have mercy, he’s still laughing.

I need some solidarity. Please tell me I’m not the only one to have done this while tits-deep in a really good fanfic. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Recs Wanted! Crossover Edmund (Narnia) x Dramione - Possible plot bunny

Post image
294 Upvotes

I'm sure some or many know about the fan theory where the founders of Hogwarts are the Pevensie children in Narnia. (ie. Peter - Gryffindor, Edmund - Slytherin, Lucy - Hufflepuff, Susan - Ravenclaw). Specifically there's a very niche (?) group who entertains the idea of Edmund and Hermione as a couple. I ship characters purely based on vibes and aesthetics and although Dramione is my one true pairing, I would love for Edmund to get in the mix, maybe an epic time travel fic where our couple goes back in time and meet the founder or vice versa Edmund travels to future time.

I believe that there's practically nothing like this, yet, except for a fic on fanfiction called When Two Worlds Collide by WickedlyAwesomeMe.

Having said this, I implore the great minds and talented pens of our community to delve into what I might say a most fascinating concept.

Recs Wanted! What is your favourite 'long fic disguised as a short fic' fic? (And why)

70 Upvotes

I have a chaotic life and haven't been able to commit to anything too long for a really long while now, and I'm missing that feeling of going on a big story journey. So, I'm looking for stories that are shorter (as a rough ballpark, I'd say topping out at around 50k but there's a bit of leeway there) but the writer manages to fit so much in that you get to the end and think 'Holy cow! How is this fic only X words?'

No preferences for genre or rating, but I'd love if you could tell me *why* you love the rec.

Some examples of popular fics I love that are like this are RavieSnake's Five Days, The Watergaw, Keep it Like a Secret

Recs Wanted! Hermione being the jealous one

10 Upvotes

Hi,

I've read so many fics now where Draco is the one pining, being jealous, possessive or otherwise hung up on Hermione. Now I'm looking for any fics where Hermione is the one in this role instead.

I'd also love recs where Draco decides to actually move on instead of just pining away when Hermione dates someone else (or even just goes on a date), is in a relationship, appears uninterested or for some other reason.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Recs Wanted! LF Ron and Molly Weasley bashing

19 Upvotes

I wanted to find some fics where Ron ends up as a bad boyfriend and also where Hermione always realizes she is the least loved among the Weasleys and Harry-esp noticing it after the Easter egg scene in goblet of fire where Molly sends her a small egg after seeijg Rita Skeeter's article.

(Note: I alr read Amor vincit omnia)

My first attempts at Draco and Hermione. I started drawing about a month ago (it’s hard lol). Wtf are eyes?!? Or hair for that matter 😭 I bind fics for my personal use. I’d love to be able to draw my own artwork one day. I used a reference I found on Pinterest for Draco.

Recs Wanted! Recs with emotionally charged intimacy scenes.

47 Upvotes

I'm looking for some recs where the sex scenes are so emotional, loving and tender. Make-up smut, first time....or anything where they are so undone by how much they love each other, maybe even crying because how overwhelming it is.

Any recommendations?

Recs Wanted! LF fics where Draco is soft and Hermione is this bamf

41 Upvotes

I saw a post here where someone asked for soft Hermione that Draco can’t help but fall for and it had all these amazing recs… it got me thinking, is there a version of the opposite to all the recs that were given?
Like where Hermione is this mafia don/severe/untouchable person and Draco is soft and quiet and she can’t help but fall for him?

Help me ID this fic LF fic where Draco and Hermione go to revels Spoiler

8 Upvotes

I'm remembering a fic where Hermione goes with Draco to death eater revels/parties--I am pretty sure she is either in disguise or as herself but pretending to be his prisoner. Snape may have recognized her though. I believe Draco just walks her through the party and makes her watch everything. I don't think they have a lot of direct interactions with people but I could be wrong, I don't remember the scenes being particularly dialogue heavy, they mostly did a lot of watching.

I believe there were prisoner fights, prostitutes, and the party was pretty awful. I want to say there may have been potions/drug use. I feel like it was a longer fic and there would have been multiple parties/revels that they attended. I do not believe Hermione was ever seriously harmed but they may have performed or kept up appearances.

I do not think it is The Auction, Columba and Aquila, Crumple...

I'm also hoping that this isnt a Snamione fic where Draco just played a key role but I don't think it is.

Recs Wanted! Lesser known fics with a cold and ruthless Draco

31 Upvotes

Hello, fellow Dramione fans!

I’m in desperate need of a long (or at least semi-long) fic with a Manacled-style Draco. I want him to have a dangerous vibe, and I don’t want Harry and Ron to immediately accept or trust him.

I’ve already read most of the popular fics, and I haven’t found anything that scratches this specific itch in well over a year.

Any recommendations?

Recs Wanted! ISO fics where Draco has a sister

Just as the title says, looking for Dramione fics where Draco has a sister, either grew up with or long lost. Thanks in advance!

Help me ID this fic LF a Muggle AU fic where Draco and Hermione are partners on an assignment for a high school assignment (or maybe she’s tutoring him) Spoiler

2 Upvotes

I think I remember a scene where D/Hr are sitting at his house and she finds out that Pansy and Blaise/Theo are sitting in their car outside his house because they can’t believe D/Hr are studying together (or maybe she finds out when they come inside)? She storms out and when he goes to her house to beg for forgiveness over the misunderstanding, her (possibly mentally ill) dad opens the door and is super mad at him and her for the ruckus he created.

It might have been a text fic? I wish I remembered more of it.

Recs Wanted! Is there any dramione fics where draco is not like draco molfy in HP Series

4 Upvotes

If there is a story it needs a hero and a little antagonist(Draco) but I need a story where draco is decisive,calm and clever and hungry for power(not like ministerial positions but like an elder wand).

Any fics where draco sorted into gryffindor and become friends with Hermione at 1st year and gradually turn into love and must definitely attend yule ball together (not seen a single dramione where they attend the ball together) and like it if it were lengthy. Already read lionheart.

Help me ID this fic LF Hermione is a long-distance runner Spoiler

8 Upvotes

I am sure this is a well-known one and I haven't bookmarked correctly -- Hermione works for the DMLE or Ministry? But lives in a remote area and likes to run trails, or run around a lake, and she's stalked or ambushed by Greyback? Maybe? It's a longer, more serious story. tia!

Recs Wanted! Friends to lovers or something more on the slow burn side

37 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m a big fan of a mid-burn, I need to see the feelings developing and I’m thrown off when they immediately feel a connection/things develop too quickly.

On the other hand, I don’t wait to wait until 75% for something to happen 😂

I find that the best trope to avoid this is friends to lovers (one good example of a friends to lovers mid-burn for me is Thanks to the Photographs).

Do you have any recs that seem to fit the bill?

Thank you 😊

Help me ID this fic i think it’s a marriage law fic where theo or blaise tell malfoy that’s he’s got the best wife

39 Upvotes

i believe they have a kid or two and they both love each other and don’t realize the other feels the same same, so their marriage is platonic. i don’t think it was a long fic either if memory serves

Recs Wanted! New Obsession with “Re-do” fics….any suggestions?

Like the title says, I am looking for fics where they travel back in time to fix things so Voldy doesn’t win or to prevent corruption or anything really! I appreciate all of your brains so much!

Recs Wanted! Short & sweet fluffy fics please

74 Upvotes

Hey swots. In dire need of a pick me up. I’ve come home from the doctor with a cancer scare (they are running labs and said if it is malignant, we caught it early so grateful for that)

This news, while l know is not as bad as it could be, has left me a bit unsettled. Please give me some fluff, angst allowed but looking for something that’s resolved within like 25-30k words so I can have some peace today.

TLDR give me your fics that:
- are fluffy, angst permitted
- 25-30k words (soft req. can be shorter or longer 🫶🏽)
- bonus for healer fics
- bonus if Draco is taking care of an overworked Hermione.

Thanks in advance lovelies. 🫶🏽
