FANFIC FRIDAY: Top 3 Dramione Rom-com Favourites
In honour of Valentine’s Day, I’m starting a new challenge on my blog called Fanfic Fridays.
I’ve been reading fanfiction since I was 11... that was a little over two decades ago, back when tagging wasn’t as meticulous as it is today, and you wouldn’t know if you were getting a slow-burn romance or 80 chapters of heartbreak! Over the years, I’ve explored different fanfiction platforms and been part of various fandoms, but these past few years, I mostly read on AO3.
While I do support reading and writing fanfiction, like thousands of fans across the world, I want to explicitly state that I am strongly against intellectual property theft and unauthorised monetisation of fanworks. I am all for celebrating creativity in its many forms, but not at the expense of the authors who worked hard to create the worlds readers love.
Without further ado, here are my top 3 favourite Dramione rom-coms... for now.
Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love
Summary:
Hermione straddles the Muggle and Magical worlds as a medical researcher and Healer about to make a big discovery. Draco is an Auror assigned to protect her from forces unknown – to both of their displeasure.
Features hyper-competent, fiery Hermione and lazy, yet dangerous, Draco. Slow burn.
Love and Other Historical Accidents
Summary:
Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy never intended to blow up their life's work, but that's rather what they've gone and done. Now they're trapped 200 years in the past, with a broken Time Turner, a missing snuff box, a handful of overly-eligible daughters, and a House-elf in a cable knit cardigan. It will require the combined power of their keen intellects to get them home, if they'd stop arguing long enough to use them.
As it turns out, history is just one damned accident after another.
For fans of Harry Potter, Jane Austen, and Connie Willis, a historical romantic comedy all about time, and getting the hell out of it.
The Trials and Tribulations of Draco Malfoy's Employment
Summary:
Draco Malfoy, for reasons that no one else fully understood, decided he required a job. A job that, in what he considered to be a horrifying state of affairs, left him partnered with a witch who was irritatingly attractive, frustratingly brilliant, unbearably interesting, and thoroughly Unimpressed by his existence.
Draco wished he could return to the time before he passed the curse-breaking exams with scores high enough to make him stuck with the swotty fuckable know-it-all, but now, with his unfortunate amount of competence and his unfortunate assignment, he finds himself sent out on alarmingly dangerous retrievals which are highly likely to result in his perfect face and perfect hair being marred.
Copious quantities of Arithmancy are engaged in, peacocks with fancy rich person names are tended to, and unreasonable amounts of unbearably expensive firewhisky are consumed.
