If Draco had lingered a moment more... he would have caught Potter looking back.
Have some smitten casual staring contest this Valentine’s day, everyone!
It’s just the messy hair (would run his hands on it), those ugly forest-green eyes (would stare at them all day) and his towering savior title that made him look taller. Really.
Previous Harry was supposed to be this but the beard and long hair just spilled out. Your reactions were lovely (and quite feral), and I share the same sentiment, folks. I really do.
That library scene with Harry’s headache | Brief Encounter by maraudersaffair
This part right here, and the entirety of the story destroyed me in every possible way. All those unspoken words and in-betweens, oh dear. Also, utterly glad to find kbrick’s post because they’ve nailed all the words I wanted to say about it. Dear @emsuemsu, you weren’t kidding about the hinny/ drarry dynamics here. And the last part. Devastating.
“I’ve always thought your height came from your messy hair, Potter."
"Pity your wit disappeared along with your hair, Malfoy."
From my previous post, and more of that headcanon below:
Months after the war, their rivalry had somewhat softened, evolving into almost-amicable banter and mischief. Once, the Great Hall burst into laughter as two ball-shaped heads wandered the castle. This was a punishment from McGonagall during Transfigurations class, when Harry's misfired spell hit Draco's head, prompting swift retaliation. Surprisingly, Draco kept his buzzcut the next morning, and some days more.
Later, as a couple, Harry would sometimes wake up to see Draco's near-perfect oval head and feel a pang of longing for his platinum-blonde locks. They had always framed his face perfectly, but Harry loved this no less: the feel of his hands over Draco's prickly scalp, the change in the planes of his head, and the barely noticeable ridge from a scar on his temple.
When Draco woke, he’d always tell Harry why he shaved his hair. Sometimes though, Draco would keep to himself, lost in thought as he smooths a nonexistent strand over his ear. During these moments, Harry would find himself reaching for a muggle razor in their bathroom, and then returning to their kitchen with uneven patches. He’d always done a poor job, and Draco would mock him mercilessly before fixing it, a small grin forming on his lips.
“I’m still taller.”
“Only if you tell me what’s on your mind.”
“Fine.”
Geese—I had to.
middle aged harry is prob the keanu reeves of the wizarding world. handsome guy, kinda shaggy looking these days, but cool because he doesn't try to be. very unassuming. kind to everyone. a little bit weird. widely beloved.
After a long time stalling, I’ve finally read Dwelling. Also because of this immaculate work of @sits-bound, and @tackytigerfic’s caution encouragement. I may have survived, but not without a crater in my chest made by thousands of shards. Here’s my sloppy attempt to patch that up.
PS. Dear @pl0tty and my irl friends, you’re the OG. Thank you for your insights. ♥︎

Babe
There's something tragic about you
Something so magic about you
Don't you agree?
Lately, all I have are wips that intimidate me, so I tried to do a very quick study to get out from the claws—ended up liking this quite a bit so I thought I’d share it. Happy Friday, everyone!

I recently finished Never Mind the Bollocks by The_Sinking_Ship. Since that day, it has been living in my head rent-free, and will remain there. Perhaps for a long, long time.
Every time I try to collect my thoughts to articulate every single thing I loved about a fic, I just end up screaming and dying with the feels. So instead of words, here’s some drawn lines (and more screaming).
Split second moment before Harry realizes the most attractive cabin crew he’s ever seen is Draco sodding Malfoy, aka his former college nemesis.
Mu first take on a muggle au with Cabin crew!Draco Malfoy and Passenger!Harry Potter.
For: @daddiesdrarryy, @valoale, @plotty, @rhetorical-conscience, and everyone who reblogged and looked forward to this ♡
What happens when you're not careful enough.
Quick sketch because I'll be out in the country for days. Feel free to drop by the askbox though! ♥︎ - K
That day, Draco went home, stunned. Did he just meet the boy who lived? The boy in his favorite storybook?
I like drawing drarry in different ages so today we’ve got these little beans. I’ve also drawn two other hairstyle for Draco (see after cut lol) but I thought that one would be funnier for when years later Harry would poke fun of it.
Those who have seen them mentioned the same thing about the unidentified man: He has striking, platinum blonde hair.
“Give me a nice thing,” Harry said that night.
Draco blinked up at him, sleepy and lazy, like a lizard in the warm. “This is the happiest I’ve ever been,” he said.” - Nice Things, aideomai
Here’s a little gift for everyone here ♡ I’d like to think that often, Draco would stop, pause, and think, it’s a sheer wonder that they get to be together like this.
Rumors say the castle conjures mistletoes to appear between people with unspoken affection. Well, this is no surprise, is it?
It’s that time of the year! Finally had some break from work to whip up some doodles.
What’s one advent fic that you would always return to? Mine would definitely be nearly all Saras_Girl’s, But Turn, If The Fates Allow and Kaleidoscope hold a special place. Sigh. Looking forward to read and discover more from other amazing authors soon.
I wish a happy Christmas to everyone who celebrate it and may you have a lovely, restful time ⭐️
Love, K.
May I offer you Potter’s penchant for annoying Draco (as usual) and nuzzling on him like a cat?
Part 2 here
“He’s getting distracted, he realises. It’s Malfoy, he thinks—the smell of him, so near—and he inches even closer and lets his head drop onto Malfoy’s shoulder. It’s good here—the curling ends of Malfoy’s hair are close enough that they stir every time Harry breathes out, and he watches the slide and quiver of the glossy strands with fascination. And better yet, when he blows gently, the hair moves off Malfoy’s neck, and then Harry can see the whole creamy stretch of it and more: the sharp tensing line of Malfoy’s jaw; the three beauty spots like a constellation on Malfoy’s cheek; the silvered line of a scar that runs from below Malfoy’s collar to just behind his ear. He’s noticed all these things before, of course, but he can’t remember why he hasn’t ever really looked at them before, or told Malfoy how lovely they are.” — If It Takes All Night by tackytiger | Read here
This is for @tackytigerfic whose fic didn’t stop running in my mind after reading it, mostly this scene, or, scratch it—all of it hunts me, especially tacky’s approach and style of writing.
This is easily my favorite portrayal of Harry who finds his friendship with Draco after the war conflicting. His yearning, his hesitation, and good lord his undeniable attraction were conveyed with raw intensity that was both sensual and captivating. I enjoyed how there’s not much dialogue and instead it took me inside Harry’s mind. It was so sensory that it made my skin tingle.
Tacky, the writer that you are. I’m in awe of your ability to craft such compelling stories. Please marry me.
PS. I just need to mention again that the scene with Draco’s beauty spots and scar killed me. I am forever including that every time I draw him.
Potter fell asleep during potions lecture, again.
