I’m starting to hear increased buzz about Diacon Alley... so excited!

Two recs:

Check out [profile] graduate_maria, a comm to help an LJ user get through her final semester (more details, including checking-out details, at the comm). Some truly fantastic photography is up for grabs, as well as fics and a rainbow rocking horse.

Seriously, you guys, you must read [personal profile] treacle_tartlet’s [profile] hd_parallel fic, What Else Had I To Do But Love You? The fact that the title is an Oscar Wilde quote tells you everything you need to know: this is funny, charming, and has a witty, gay dilettante taking it up the arse from a secret-inheritance-having labourer named Harry Potter. It’s like a cross between The Importance of Being Earnest, Lady Chatterley’s Lover and A Little Princess.

Generally non-magic AUs are the one kind of fic I am guaranteed not to read, and AUs in general are not my thing. I especially avoid Victorian AUs because let’s face it, the more British among us do not always want to read about bloody Victorian London where it is somehow always Christmas and photogenic orphans are shivering in the snow.

This one’s set in Wiltshire, not London, because this Draco has been banned from the London social whirl – and Wilde and his crowd – by an incensed Lucius. He hangs about watching gardener!Harry work, and they fall in love despite the disapproval of Lucius and Reverend Snape. It’s a very simple and romantic story, with true love conquering all, and it is hilarious. [personal profile] treacle_tartlet has a hundred funny turns of phrase, and the banter is FANTASTIC. It’s ~6k and it seemed to vanish in a moment, leaving me with a grin on my face.

Title: Something Special
Word count: 1200
Characters/pairings: Harry/Draco
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Most shameless id-fic ever: vamp!Harry and virgin!Draco non-con PWP.
Warnings: non-con. Um. Forced turning?
Disclaimer: The boys and girls belong to JKR, even though I’m often much nicer to them than she is.
Author’s Notes: This was written as part of my drabble meme for [personal profile] sra_danvers, who requested Drarry, vamp Harry. I’m using it as my consent play square for Kink Bingo. Another one written as a drabble set with the pauses stripped out.
