"Moving On" by LadyKatie


http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3717765/1/Moving_On


Fuck, I love this fanfic. It's Harry/Draco, post DH. It's canon compliant (minus the epilogue, natch), and just ... fuck.

It wasn't perfect. There were a couple of scenes where I rolled my eyes (and some cringeworthy sex), but nothing that made me stop reading. I also love how this fic explored the notion of Wizarding Britain after Voldemort's fall.

I mentioned in my last post that I was never a Harry/Draco fan, but if one fic were to make me like the pairing, this is it. This is my "Dating Disasters of Sirius Black" for all the Drarry shippers out there. This makes sense to me.

"It's Not a Love Potion" by CrystalP374

Did you know that before "Misadventures," I had never, ever read a Harry/Draco fic? Not once. Slash is never something I've actively sought out, and I've always preferred good writing over smut, anyway. But people like what they like, and I can't blame them! I mean, we're all in the fanfic boat, so I can't really afford to throw anyone off.

However, there is such a thing as well-written smut, which is pretty much what this is.

It's smut, but as "realistic" as it can be. It's a bit silly, but the author's totally aware, so it's bearable.
