Drarry Fic Recs

Also that you die when the wolfsbane reaches your heart. And Scott’s poisoning went past his heart and to his head. Tell me how that works.

Hey Jeff Davis one note among many, but did you know that for a wound made with wolfsbane, you actually need to burn it with the ash of that specific strand of wolfsbane to heal it?

This particular piece of knowledge comes from the tv show you created called Teen Wolf which you may or may not be familiar with.

Ten thousand fanfic writers have gotten this particular piece of lore correct for a decade since you invented it. There are fics where Stiles’ love language is gathering different kinds of wolfsbane to always be able to save Derek Hale.

Truly, get yourself sorted sir (disrespectful).

You know, nothing could convince me that Ginny wrote the valentine’s poem in Chamber of Secrets. Absolutely nothing. That is 100% an on-brand Draco Malfoy ‘ploy’ (okay) to ‘piss off’ (sure) his ‘rival’ (uh huh).

I mean, first of all, we pretty much always get a Dramatic & Cunning Draco Prank in the books (until he gets older and shit starts getting more real). Not so much in book one — he was still in Planning and Seething Mode™️ — but after that, Draco was like:

Year two: Stay up all night composing the perfect valentine poem to embarrass and annoy Potter

Year three: Stay up all night making Dementor costumes to scare and piss off Potter

Year four: Stay up all night making Potter Stinks badges because I’m so well-adjusted about him and barely think of him at all, actually

Also, I’ve talked about this before, but it really just doesn’t sound like Ginny. Why would she compare his eyes to pickled toads? (Meanwhile, Draco would 100% do that.) Why would she refer to the ‘Dark Lord’, when we only see Voldemort referred to as that by death eaters? And she had so much shit going on at the time, and was terrified of the gaps in her memory and what was happening — I don’t think she was writing love poems.

And really, it’s the fact that Malfoy is the one to act like Ginny wrote it. Which tells me two things:

He’s noticed Ginny’s crush and dislikes it (and is jealous/angry at her about it….. like why else would he care?? why would he notice???)

He’s deflecting attention from himself as the actual author of the poem

I can just totally see Malfoy finding out about Lockhart’s valentine idea, scoffing at Crabbe and Goyle and being like “that’s so stupid”, but then thinking about it later and telling himself “this is the perfect way to embarrass Potter.” Twelve year old Draco staying up late in his four poster bed, coming up with hilarious rhymes for his not-at-all-romantic love poem….. I see it. I see the vision.

Very much thanks to @zaharya for writing this. I loved it and everyone should read it.

Title: A Faire Fight By: @zaharya Gift for: @alehalebane Rating: Teen and Up Word Count: 6 ,727 words Warning(s): None Creator Notes: Dear Alehalebane, congratulations, your prompt made me break my initial resolution to only claim one really short prompt — but I couldn’t just let the chance to write low-stakes fight scenes pass me by! So here we are, I ignored my own rules, but I’m really happy to have been able to claim your prompt. I hope you like how it turned out! Summary: Arthur caught sight of Merlin when there were maybe fifteen of them left. He faltered, jaw dropping open, and it was pure luck the man charging at him had terrible aim, or he would’ve failed out of the melee right then and there. Pulling himself together, he made quick work of his attacker, before putting some distance between himself and the others to collect himself. And, perhaps, to stare just a little. Merlin was… magnificent. He wielded his sword like an extension of his own body — a lesson most of Arthur’s knights had never truly mastered. His movements were quick and precise, yet fluent, graceful in a way Arthur had never seen before, as he landed disqualifying hits on two, three, four opponents in rapid succession. Or: The one where Merlin brings a returned Arthur to a medieval faire and they fight in a tournament. AO3 Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/45646960 

Guys I am in a reading stump. I just can’t find a fic to stick to. Can someone please recommend me a fic? I love reading drarry, sterek, merthur, and firstprince. I am especially addicted to drarry ones where Draco is cute and innocent and harry just can’t take it. If anyone can please recommend me a fic it will be very much appreciated.

Guess what, Merthur fans? We’re back!

Yes, Merthur Glompfest is returning in January 2025 for another round of fabulous fanworks, just for you 😘

What is a Glompfest, you ask?

A Glompfest is a gifting fest designed as a way for fandom creators to give back to those fans who wouldn’t usually be eligible to take part in a typical exchange fest.

How does it work?

Glompees (readers, lurkers, commenters, or fandom supporters of any stripe) will be asked to provide a prompt or prompts for glomping, which will then be claimed by Glompers (fandom creators, fic writers and fanartists) and filled according to the Glompee’s request. Completed works will then be posted to our AO3 Collection and shared here on Tumblr for everyone’s enjoyment!

For more information on how the fest works (and whether you qualify as a Glomper or a Glompee), check out our FAQ or send the mods an ask here on Tumblr.

💕 Don’t forget to follow @merthurglompfest for fest updates, and help us spread the love by spreading the word! 💕

How did I not know that Micheal Sheen played FREAKING Aro in Twilight. Like look at this. I can only see the resemblance if I squint.

Guys what the hell? I still can’t believe that the person who played an adorable gay angel also played this mf
