Can I Kiss You?

FIC & ART:

Title: It’s a Plan
Author/Artist: Anonymous
Prompt: #67
Rating: T
Warnings/Content Notes: mention of past rape/noncon

Word Count: 2,546
Author’s Notes: This is my first time participating in a fest. When I read the prompts, I got an immediate image in my head that I wanted to draw. I wasn’t planning on writing the story, too, but before I set pencil to paper, the words just fell out and insisted on being written down. Many thanks to the incomparable A for the above-and-beyond beta. Your input vastly improved the story. I couldn’t resist messing with it further, so any remaining mistakes are all mine.

FIC:

Title: the strength in letting go
Author: Anonymous
Prompt: #4
Rating: Teen
Warnings/Content Notes: no content warnings apply
Summary: Some relationships will end. This is something that everyone should be aware of, and there is no shame in ending a relationship. These things happen, and certainly, no one should stay in an unhappy relationship. We don’t want to have people learning to maintain their suffering here—only fix what can be fixed.

In which Harry and Ginny seek counselling when their marriage is on the rocks—it just doesn’t work out quite like Harry’s wanted it to.

Author’s Notes: Many thanks to S for beta’ing for me and turning my jumble of words into a story

the strength in letting go

Title: Silenced by the Night
Author: Anonymous
Prompt: 21
Rating: Mature
Warnings/Content Notes: None
Summary: After a spell goes horribly wrong, Harry has to deal with the loss of his eyesight. It’s such terrible timing, too, because how is he supposed to find out what Malfoy has been up to in the Room of Requirement? It’s not like he can ask the git, not only because it’s Malfoy, but also because the Slytherin has suddenly lost his voice. While they’re both trapped in the hospital wing, however, Harry discovers there’s so much he didn’t know about Malfoy, and it’s highly intriguing, but also a bit alarming. Where did all these confusing feelings come from all of a sudden? And what is Harry going to do about them?

Author’s Notes: I never thought this day would come. I can’t believe this thing is finally finished. There are no words to describe how much I love my friend, who let me rant and freak out for hours, who helped me through this without complaining once. I love you so much! Thank you to my beta for your dedication, the time and effort you put into helping me with this disaster of a fic. I don’t know how to thank you! You’re not only the best beta I could have wished for, you’re an incredible friend and I love you so much! I feel so lucky to have you guys in my life! Lastly, I wouldn’t have written this fic, if it weren’t for this great fest. A big thank you to the mods for organizing it! This was an amazing idea!

Silenced by the Night

Title: Team Slytherdor
Author: Anonymous
Prompt: 53
Rating: Teen
Warnings/Content Notes: Underage, Harry and Draco are both 14.
Summary: Rolanda Hooch takes the Slytherdor Quidditch team to the Sheffield Central Travelodge for some team bonding.
Word Count: 8844
Author’s Notes: This is my attempt to give Harry James Potter some of the fun, awkward teenage experiences that he missed out on in canon. It’s set during Harry and Draco’s Fourth Year when for Authorly Reasons there are no Death Eaters and Voldemort has not been resurrected.

Thank you to the mods for organising such a fantastic fest! Thank you to everyone on the Drarry Discord for talking through ideas with me, especially F, G, G, G, S, C and A.

And thank you to NH, a beta with the enthusiasm of a Gryffindor, the work ethic of a Hufflepuff, the sly humour of a Slytherin, and the comma herding abilities of a Ravenclaw.

Check the end notes for a glossary of all the Muggle snacks mentioned.

Title: Teach Me
Author: Anonymous
Prompt: Prompt 35
Rating: M
Warnings/Content Notes: No warnings apply.
Summary: “If you can’t learn Occlumency, then you can’t become an Auror.”

No. All of this couldn’t be for nothing. Harry hadn’t spent so much time proving himself, proving that he was more than just a famous name for all of this to go to shite. “This can’t be the end.”

“I have someone in mind that could teach you if you are willing, but I can’t guarantee he will teach you, especially considering your… past.”

“You don’t mean Malfoy, do you?”

Author’s Notes: I would like to thank my beta Dean and Cas for helping me look this over after editing. I appreciate you both so much. And also J and R for listening to me and helping me mentally. I needed all the support you both gave me.

Teach Me

Title: A Day in the Life
Author: Anonymous
Prompt: # 51
Rating: Explicit
Warnings/Content Notes: Established relationship, switching, Anal sex
Summary: Harry and Draco have been together for years. They have a great sex life. Great and perfectly normal. Sometimes they have sex, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes it takes a little persuasion… but not really that much. Ok, barely any.
Word Count: 5,597
Author’s Notes: For prompt 51: Established relationship: Harry and Draco have been together for years and it’s series of vignettes of regular days. One of them really wants to have sex and the other one is busy working or something. Where is the line between acceptable and unacceptable persuasion? In some cases they end up having sex, in some they don’t; in some Draco’s the one who wants to have sex, in some Harry is.

Thank you to my wonderful friends, F, K and J for letting me bounce ideas off you, for looking over things, for being amazing. I love you all.

Thank you to the brilliant mods… I can’t tell you how awesome I think you are. Thank you to everyone reading.

A Day in the Life

Title: Cherished
Author: Anonymous
Prompt: Own Prompt
Rating: NC-17/Explicit
Warnings/Content Notes: Vampire Draco, established relationship, light bondage, rough sex, biting, bottoming from the top, background Ginny/Luna
Summary: Ever since Draco was turned into a vampire he hasn’t touched Harry, and Harry desperately wants to know why. When they finally turn, surprising revelations are made.
Word Count: 2700
Author’s Notes: For my take on the theme of consent, I wanted to look at an established relationship where the needs of one of the partners had changed, and how a couple would communicate that. I thought turning into a magical creature was a good option for a couple of wizards together, plus I can never get enough of vampire Draco 🙂

Cherished

Title: Beautiful Eyes and Dark Blue Skies
Author: First-time Fest Participant ⚡⚡⚡
Prompt: # 95
Rating: T
Warnings/Content Notes: None applicable.
Summary: Everybody knew about the rivalry that brewed between the two kings living in neighbouring kingdoms and not much changed after one of them died. This surely meant that when their children met at the age of sixteen, both princes and heirs to their respective thrones, they would develop a deep all-consuming hatred for each other as well. Surely they would not happen to like one another. Surely not.
Word Count: 5,720
Author’s Notes: This is my very first time participating in such a huge fest, a Drarry one at that, and I truly hope that everyone who reads this story really enjoys it.

Author: First-time Fest Participant ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Prompt: # 48
Rating: E
Warnings/Content Notes: There is a very short part of this fic that could be interpreted as dub con – please see fic endnotes for more details if you are concerned.
Summary: Draco sighs. “What kind of absolute twit has the chance to have sex with the Chosen One and can’t go through with it?” // In which Draco studies with Gryffindors, learns a new spell, and navigates the difficulty of being in a not-so-casual secret relationship with his childhood nemesis.
