| rec n' along |

Hi, this will be my last rec post before my big long composite/grade post (later tonight or tomorrow). I'll be doing the family vacation thing, but will check in now and again. There are a few rec'd longer fics that I haven't read yet and look quite tasty so I'm printing them to take on the plane.
Non Fest Rec:
Yes, it's no secret that I'm a huge drooling fan of ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) pir8fancier's writing. What can I say? Her "angst" and "romance" tug at my emotions and her humor simply matches my idea of funny. And speaking of funny... and touching... I finished up the five part sequel to Bite Me Hate Me Memes- BMHM: The Wedding (yes, I rec'd this when she first started posting, but now it's done). Draco's brain is like none other. Have fun on this pre-nuptial roller coaster through Dracoland.
From ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) hp_yule_balls is Good Breeding (31k NC-17, Charlie/Draco). I love a roughed up and down on his luck Draco. This is a delightful take on a beautiful to the marrow Charlie coming to comfort, but under the controversial Ministry forced M/M bonding and breeding law in the name of perpetuating purebloods. Suspend your disbelief and go along with it... a charming read (and hot too!).
From hd_holidays is Twelve Seemingly Insignificant Moments That Change Everything (5,600 word H/D Hard R) - I'll be honest and say that I'm not the hugest "epilogue compliant fic" fan. Mostly b/c I've only seen a few that were able to truly break out of the small handful of repetitive patterns that I've seen for these fics. And that's me... I'm not as interested in later and life post children fics. This one is well written, charming, and yes, follows one of the familiar epi fic patterns of seeing pieces of Harry's epilogue life and future encounters with Draco - we see their lives intertwine and then there's divorce and death and then they're gay and then they act on their feelings. I'm not insulting this pattern, a lot of people love these fics (they must b/c I see them everywhere)... so this sounds like more of a critique then a rec... no, it's a rec that if you like these stories, you will like this one and the reason I'm reccing it is that it has a fresh take on Ginny and H/G's marriage- kinky. The fic is short and enjoyable. |
