H/D FOOD FAIR 2018 CLAIMING! First, be sure to know the Harry/Draco Food Fair Rules. The complete list of prompts can be viewed at this Google Doc.

Reminders:

  • Prompt claiming is on a first-come, first-claimed basis.
  • Claiming by proxy is permitted.
  • You may state your first and/or second and/or third choice for a prompt when you claim.
  • Please state if you are claiming for fic or for art.
  • You may claim your own prompt.
  • If you claim a prompt, please watch this Tumblr/relevant communities for updates.
  • Once you submit your entry, you may claim another prompt.

How prompt claiming is going to work:

If your first choice is not yet claimed, it’s yours! If your first choice is already claimed, you will get your second choice or third choice. If your third choice is claimed, you can submit another three choices.

If you only want to claim only one prompt, that is perfectly fine.

The mods will email to confirm your claim as soon as we can confirm which of your prompt choices are still unclaimed. We will also be updating the Prompt List to indicate which prompts have been claimed for fic or for art.

Any questions or concerns can be brought up with the mods by email to fanfairmod@gmail.com.

My bf sent me this article he came across today, and it didn’t sit well with me. I can’t exactly put my finger on why, or put it into words why it’s bothering me so much.

I think because I feel like the writer doesn’t come from a place of genuine interest, and comes from a place of mockery instead.

Anyway, I’d love to hear more thoughts on this. Maybe I’m being too sensitive or overthinking the whole thing.

My two cents: the writer is definitely fucking around/poking fun—and I sort of get it. Fanfic is weird and kinda goofy, in the way that all subcultures seem weird and goofy to outsiders.

BUT. There are some things that bother me, too:

1.) the author is ignoring or ignorant of the fact that some fanfic is really good —like really, really good.

2.) dismissing fanfic is often also dismissing the interests and needs of women and queer people—as we make up the vast majority of folks writing and reading fic. So. I’m not saying this is what’s happening here, but I’m always a little on edge when these types of conversations happen.

3.) Fanfic often gives us better and more complete representation than we ever get in canon—and, if you wanna talk NC-17 content, gives us the erotic material that mainstream media and porn often fails to deliver to anyone except straight dudes. Fanfic is all about women and queer people looking at media that fails them, taking it into their own hands, and punk rock DIY-ing the shit out of it. We make our own content and then share that shit for free. That’s not lame; it’s fucking revolutionary.*

(Maybe slight overkill — but seriously. It’s kinda awesome when you really think about it.)

The author/artist names are listed here and will be added to the individual posts shortly. kitty_fic and sassy_cissa ♥ 2018 harrydracompreg Masterlist ♥ ART: sirenelj drew Picking the Baby’s Name [G] Summary: Harry and Draco are having another baby, they each have written the names they like and now are letting their kids contribute, and since Jamie (in yellow) can’t write yet, Scorpius is helping by writing the “name” that is making daddy burst out laughing every time Jamie (mis)pronounces it lol. The gender of the baby is up to the viewer! carpemermaid drew Our Moon and Stars [G] Summary: Harry and Draco put their little ones to bed. decynthus drew A Real Family [PG] Summary: Harry and Draco read all the child care manuals before starting their family. Now they’re discovering the stuff that wasn’t covered. oldenuf2nb drew and wrote The Joys of Naptime [G] Summary: Just a small slice of life in the Potter-Malfoy household. FIC bangyababy wrote Don’t Worry About Me (Baby, We’ll be Fine [R, 5.4k] Summary: “Well, I’m sure that you heard a lot of times with male pregnancy the body just isn’t ready or is too stressed.” “I guess I’m not stressed anymore,” Harry told him with a small smile. “Well, I am,” Draco blurted out. Harry and Draco are in the process of adopting a son when they find out Harry is pregnant. Harry is ecstatic, but Draco can’t stop worrying about how he’s supposed to be a good father to two children when he can’t even figure out how do it for one. love_glows27 wrote Expectant [NC-17, 62.5k] Summary: After he accidentally gets Malfoy pregnant on a drunken fuck at a club, Harry doesn’t anticipate that it’d be just as easy to fall in love with him. enchanted_jae wrote Peanut Potter-Malfoy [PG-13, 2.2k] Summary: New-Dad Harry is awed, humbled, excited, anxious, protective, and scared out of his mind. erin_riwen wrote What I Never Knew I Always Wanted [NC-17, 13.6k] Summary: It’s been ten years since the war, ten wonderful and productive years but now, Harry finds himself thinking of what he’d like to do next. His musings take Draco by surprise. ustorycollector wrote Show Me My Options [G, 5.6k] Summary: Harry is currently training to be a Healer, which is going great! Except then suddenly the lecturer mentions male pregnancy and Harry is very, very confused. And unfortunately there’s only one person who can explain it to him. pollyweasley wrote Unexpectancy (Into you) [NC-17, 20k] Summary: Draco supposed that starting Eighth Year in Hogwarts fucking Harry Potter was a good start. Both of them were in the closet, for a lack of better words, and both of them were having fun with each other, no bonds attached, no uncomfortable talks, no need to tell their friends whatsoever. It was good to both of them, especially when you considered that the Wizarding World was stupidly ignorant and homophobic, and Draco was already suffering enough because he looked like he was gay. It was better just to keep it a secret. But when Draco suddenly finds out he ended up pregnant of Potter’s child, there was nothing he could do except face the world and reveal his secret. Would Potter accept to reveal his, too, for the sake of this new life? kikimay wrote A Year in the Life (Expanding Constellations) [R, 12.7k] Summary: Harry and Draco have been married for quite a while, parents of two Hogwarts students, professors on their own … and now expecting a child. frostina2k read How Does Your Garden Grow? [Podfic, NC-17, 33:08] fic by sassy_cissa How Does Your Garden Grow [NC-17, 5k] Summary: Leaving life to chance gives Harry and Draco a treasure they never expected. everything-a-wolf-could-want wrote Is It True That You Like To Sleep Alone (or is it what you just tell everyone)[NC-17, 55k] Summary: In the wake of the war, Draco has worked hard to scrub the taint from his name. He is society’s darling and he relishes the rewards that come with it. Not ready to settle down - and with no intention of ever marrying one of the young witches his parents keep trying to force on him - Draco is enjoying to freedom to sleep with whomever he wants, whenever he wants. When Draco finds out he’s pregnant, and that the father could be one of three different men, he has to figure out what comes next. It could be a fairy tale come to life…or it could be the biggest scandal in the history of the Wizarding World. It’s all in how Draco manages to spin it… titti wrote A Wild Ride [PG, 6k] Summary: After finding out that Draco is pregnant, Harry simply can’t let it go. He needs to help Draco any way he can and that involves finding out who the father is. secretsalex wrote In Our Blood [NC-17, 38k] Summary: Draco is an accomplished pure-blood curse breaker, and Harry is tasked with accompanying him on his latest job—cleaning up the Van Boer mansion, which has been under a devastating fertility curse for seven generations. femmequixotic and noeon wrote Rock-a-bye Sweet Baby James [NC-17, 28k] Summary: Harry Potter knew that having a baby by himself would be difficult, but when his son’s other father arrives on his doorstep, furious and upset at not being told about Harry’s pregnancy, Harry’s already messy life becomes a thousand times more complicated. sassy_cissa wrote We Found Love (Right Where We Are) [NC-17, 9k] Summary: Whatever this was between him and Harry - it was working. The sex was brilliant and who needed commitment anyway? Not Draco Malfoy, of that he was sure. Mostly.

“The facts, as Draco sees them, are thus: He has been fucking Harry Potter—most powerful wizard alive—for months. Said fucking has occurred in a house plagued by what is rumored to be the most powerful fertility curse in the wizarding world. He had suffered through an inexplicable illness for much of the fall. He is now seemingly recovered, the incessant nausea of October and November having been replaced by a gentle abdominal bloat that seems to grow more taut by the day. It is not a list that inspires confidence. Nor is it one that Draco can easily dismiss, no matter what ridiculous and far-fetched conclusions he keeps drawing from it.”

I just discovered "Lemon Tarts" on AO3, and now I'm contractually obligated to warn you of the religious devotion in which I read the rest of your works x'D additionally, do you take prompts on here?

Thank you, dear! I’m still in the process of posting a bunch of old fics, so you’ll end up with a lot of back catalogue to go through. :)

Prompts: I would definitely be interested.

hpkinkfest

We are delighted to announce that after much consideration, Harry Potter Kinkfest will be running Round 9 in 2018. The timeline can be found below and is similar to the timeline for the previous rounds, with the difference that the fest will run for two weeks with a third ‘catch-up’ week. Your moderators for this round are @writcraft (moderator in 2016 and 2017) and @invisikitty (new moderator for 2018).

Prompting Opens: Tuesday 2 January 2018
Claiming Opens: Monday 8 January 2018
Fest Posting: Monday 19 February 2018
Catch-Up Posting Week: Monday 5 March 2018

For the first time, Kinkfest will run across three platforms. Tumblr, Dreamwidth and Livejournal. You can sign up and prompt via any of the three platforms, with the one fundamental, non-negotiable rule that all participants must be aged 18 or over. All fic will be hosted on Archive of Our Own in the HP Kinkfest 2018 collection and art will be hosted either on AO3 or on the artist’s personal Tumblr, or both, at the artist’s discretion. No matter which platform you follow the fest on, you will have access to all of the fest submissions as the moderators will work to ensure the relevant links are provided on each platform. For 2019 we may be phasing out our Livejournal participation due to the updated TOS and as a result we highly recommend you follow our Dreamwidth journal and/or fest Tumblr.

This will be HP Kinkfest’s ninth year and it is always a great way to dust off the cobwebs after the holiday fests. We are trying to accommodate the ever shifting platforms of Harry Potter fandom, but we also want this fest to remain the safe space it has always been for its participants. The ethos of Kinkfest has always been about indulging our love of fetishes and kink. No Harry Potter characters were harmed in the making of this fest, YKINMK and so on. A thoughtfully written kink fic or piece of art that really focuses on showcasing a particular kink or fetish can be a real treat. Our goal is to facilitate people eager to writer or draw lesser showcased kinks and fetishes, together with the more popular ones, and we want this fest to be fun and accessible to everybody who wishes to participate.

You will be able to prompt via comments on the prompting post which will go up on 2 January on Dreamwidth and Livejournal or via the ask function on Tumblr from the same date. All prompts will be collected in THIS gdoc which will be accessible to everybody and updated daily. You will be able to claim via Google Forms on Tumblr or by responding to a screened claiming post on Dreamwidth or Livejournal. The prompting posts will go live across all three platforms on 2 January 2018 and the claiming posts will go live on all three platforms on 8 January 2018.

Detailed rules can be found HERE.

Did you know that the first Big Bang fest EVER was for the Harry/Draco pairing back in 2005? It’s been more than 10 years since then, and the format has taken off, spreading to almost every other fandom, with a multitude of different lengths, genres, and other requirements. Most recently, the Harry Potter fandom celebrated our favourite character with the harrybang in 2015.

It’s been several years since there’s been a specific Harry/Draco Big Bang to celebrate Harry and Draco’s ever changing and intense relationship, and your mods, @capipuff​, @gracerene09​, & @writcraft thought that it was time for that to change. And thus, @harrydracobang was born, with a goal of encouraging and hosting the creation of long EPIC works of fanfiction (50,000 words minimum) and fabulous art.

The Drarry fandom is made up of all sorts of people who enjoy a variety of genres, tropes, and dynamics. We’re all here because we adore this complex and explosive pairing, and exploring the many different ways in which a relationship between Harry and Draco can unfold. Connections have been made, friendships have flourished, and it’s all because we have something magical in common: we love seeing Harry and Draco banging. :D

We’re all super excited about this challenge, and we hope all of you are too! Please consider joining us on this magical adventure. <3
