Hey I'm Jenny, 30, neurodivergent, pan, nonbinary/autigender (they/them), and total drarry trash. This is my main blog, where I mostly reblog drarry/hp content. Possible NSFW, you have been warned I have a side blog which is a masterlist of drarry fic recs: @slytherholicficrecs TERFs and transphobes or any other form of bigotry are not welcome here.

Six Sentence Sunday

Thank you for tagging me @m0srael!!! Idk who to tag, but if you see this and want to do it please do!

I’ve been working on my long fic that I’ve been working on and off on for years. It’s an eighth-year fic, canon compliant with the books (except for the epilogue), friends to lovers, with a focus on their developing relationship, coming out, and their friends and families reactions to the relationship. This is a snippet from chapter four.

As the weeks passed, it became apparent that Harry was rapidly becoming obsessed with Draco Malfoy…again. It was almost like their sixth year all over again, only he had no excuse this time around. Draco was not a death eater, nor was he involved in an evil scheme of any sort, for that matter. He was not hiding anything, as far as Harry could tell, and since returning to Hogwarts, he’d been nothing but polite and good-natured. So why then was Harry staring at the back of Draco’s head when he sat behind him in lessons, obsessing over what classes he took, staring at him across the Great Hall, daydreaming about silvery grey eyes, staring at him in the common room, staring at him while they worked together in potions class, imagining what it would feel like to run his fingers through that platinum blond hair, staring at him…well let’s just say that there was a lot of staring involved unless Draco were to look in his direction, in which case he would avert his gaze at lightning speed.

@Fanfic writers:

My friend send me this link, is a series on a profile on Ao3 (tumblr) that has different tutorials to insert things to fanfics via html code, I thought I would share bc it’s really cool

Lists of tutorials:

This is a tutorial/live example on how to make large images fit on mobile browsers but remain normal size on desktop browsers.

This is a tutorial/live example on how to mimic the look of letters, fliers, and stationery (as well as other forms of written media) without using images. For all your epistolary fic needs.

This is a tutorial/live example on how to create a "Choose Your Own Adventure" fic. While this has been explained before (see here), this particular tutorial shows you how to use a work skin to hide the next parts from the reader until they click through to get to them.

This is a live example of how an author can create linked footnotes in their work with only a little bit of HTML and no workskins required. This is best viewed by clicking "Entire Work". While I've included the actual coding in bold and italic once you click "Hide Creator's Style", there's a more detailed explanation here.

This a tutorial/live example on how to have text change or appear once a cursor is hovering over it. Helpful for pop-up spoilers, language translations, quick author's notes, etc.

Anonymous on tumblr: do you have a skin that would mimic the author’s notes and review/kudos buttons section from the end of a fic? the desired effect being that the fic could go on after the “end” of the fic, so after the author’s notes and review/kudos buttons

Here's a tutorial/live example to do just that, with some of the buttons actually functioning. I'll explain more inside!

This is a tutorial/live example on how to align images to the left or right of the screen and have text wrap around them.

This is a tutorial/live example on how to mimic email windows on AO3 without the need to use images.

This is a tutorial/live example on how to mimic iOS text messages on AO3 without the need to use images. There's also a chapter on how to have emojis displayed on AO3 as well.

Bored with the default page dividers? This is a tutorial/live example on how customize your page dividers with no images needed (though I do show you how you could use images if you wanted to do such a thing).

This is a live example how to make invisible text that can only be seen by highlighting the text. Tutorial is included in text, and you can always leave comments about questions you may have.

MOBILE USERS: Sadly, this probably won't work for you, since highlighting in a mobile browser is different than web. I've tried correcting this, but have yet to find a solution.

Original coding and design is from layouttest. I make no claims for it, just tweaked it so it will work on AO3.

This is a live example of my AO3 skin that allows the author to recreate the look of lined notebook paper in their work. To learn more about it, you can find the tutorial here.

This is a live example of my AO3 skin that allows the author to recreate the look of sticky notes (aka Post-Its) in their fic. To learn more about it, you can find the tutorial here.

This is a live example of my AO3 skin that allows the author to recreate the look of Deadpool's thinking boxes in their fic. To learn more about it, you can find the tutorial here.

This is a live example of my AO3 skin that allows the author to recreate the look of a newspaper article in their work. To learn more about it, you can find the tutorial here.

Pansy: Harry, can you give this book to Draco for me? Since you two got Charms class together
Harry: Alright, do you need me to kiss him for you too?
Pansy: …I mean, do YOU want to kiss him?
Harry: No! No! No, no. I don’t want to kiss Malfoy. Hah, not ever. Especially not in my dream or anything. I’m just asking, since you’re his girlfriend and stuff
Pansy: I’m not his—oh…you think…
Pansy: Okay, sure, kiss him for me too
Harry: Alright
Pansy: On the mouth, with tongue
Harry: Anything else?
Pansy: I usually hold his hand as we walk to class, then hug him
Harry: Okay! Bye!
Pansy: …it’s never been this easy
Harry: What?
Pansy: Nothing!

Ron: What’s up?
Harry: Draco styled his hair differently today, do you think he’s found himself someone special?
Harry: He always sneaks out into the lake at night too
Harry: He never looks at me anymore, and he always avoids my eyes
Harry: He’s also kinda hot, don’t you think?
Ron: Hey, you know that thing where we talk to each other about things?
Harry: Yeah?
Ron: Yeah, let’s not do that anymore

written for @drarrymicrofic prompt: breach

“Oh, really Potter? Breaching your ethics? Your famously perfect morale?” Draco sneers. “Didn’t think you’d stoop so low.”

“Oh shut up!”

“I can already see the headline: Harry Potter, Golden Boy, Saviour of the Wizarding World, has reached a new low point in his life,” he taunts. Harry shoves halfheartedly at his shoulder.

“Leave me alone,” Harry mumbles, mouth full.

“I can’t believe you’re eating my brownie. And you’re not even subtle about it,” Draco complains. “Thief,” he hisses without bite. His sneer turns to a softer smile, almost fond, and the hardness in his eyes melts away.

“You love me, though.”

“That, I do,” Draco hums.

“And technically it’s not your brownie. I bought it.”

“For me,” Draco interjects.

“But,” Harry holds up a finger, cradling the brownie in the other hand, “I accidentally dropped it.” He looks both smug and sheepish. Who knew that was a thing?

“It was on the floor?” Draco asks incredulous.

Harry nods, lifting the baked good back to his lips, then stopping himself and holding it out to Draco gleefully.

“Oh, sorry, do you want a bite?”

“Ew, no!”

Harry cackles, then bites into the brownie with a hum.

“You’re really gross, sometimes, you know?”

“It’s a chocolate fudge brownie!” Harry exclaims, outraged.

“It was on the floor!”

“For less than five seconds. So it’s still good. That’s the rule!”

“I don’t get your weird muggle rules,” Draco pouts.

“You’re just mad because you’re missing out. This is delicious!” Harry chuckles.

“But I – I – um …” Draco doesn’t know what to say. He opens and closes his mouth a few times without any sound actually leaving his lips.

“Oh wow, Draco Malfoy, speechless for once. I already see the headline,” Harry teases, before pressing a kiss right onto Draco’s open lips. “I’ll buy you a new brownie, I promise.”
