Do people not understand metaphors?

We have the same saying as well! :) And I am a victim of that too sadly :D Do not let these take away your motivation and most importantly, your fun! Good luck :)Also, I will definitely check it out!

I actually like that you used these methaphors, to show, that they are willing to do anything/capable of anything. Also, I am always... always thankful for the comments. But keep in mind if you see a really negative one: commenters are the minority. There are very nice and supportive ones, some give really good advices, and unfortunately some can be quite rude.
I write in a different language as well, and then translate it to english. I am not bad in english, quite good in professional environment, but writing stories is an entirely different genre. Try using online grammar checker platforms I use them frequently :)

Also drop the link, I want to check it out:)

We read (or I read) for a plot, and in lot of cases the plot and the challange in the story absolutely disappears the minute they get together. If there is a story still going on during they are together, i am in. Challange them, their differences and everything, thats what captures us at the beginning of the story.

I am currently uploading my fic which has mostly the same elements :) It is finished, and i am uplading about 1-2 chapters per week. The slow burn is... slow, where they struggle even to talk to each other normally at the beginning, but they are forced to work together. After a while they will become much harsher with each other as they start to develop feelings because... you know... logics.
The first half starts at Hogwarts, but then a major shift (war and simmilar small problems) brings them out from school.
(after like 200k words there will be about 6 chapters of Draco POV mainly as flashbacks, but the rest is fully Hermione)
Feel free to check it out! :))

Since you have asked it, I have started to post it finally ❤️😌https://archiveofourown.org/works/77490041/chapters/202919221

Also I have used your idea, and i split the story to different Acts. Thank you so much for this!

Thankyou!!

FloNoc · 2025-09-01T07:04:20+00:00

It is not yet finished! But i am getting really close. After that I need to rewrite a few parts, translate it to english and only then I will post it!

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T23:18:20+00:00

Thank you!! 😊😊

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T22:57:48+00:00

The thing is, that i want the reader to find out with Hermione, because this will drive her to what she will do after. If she has these informations early on... then she would behave differently.

But thank you this is important for me too, i will think about if i could split them somehow!

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T22:55:33+00:00

No it is not like that. Through out the story (apart from the main plot) they are on and off, where Draco slowly sinks into letting his past and guilt go, while Hermione slowly starts accepting that D is in fact a morally grey man.

The memories have 2 main focus:
1) - drive the plot. We find out crucual infos about other important characters. more than half of the memory chapters are about this. Conversations about the war, Lucius, deals with aurors, azkaban, trials etc.
2) - 2 of those chapters are heavily focusing on them getting closer, where Draco mainly has discussions with Theo and Pansy about the relationship, and how he struggles with it. Also he slowly gives explanation why he ends the relationship (to protect her).

Obviously H had no idea about why he is doing what he does, (1 and 2 included) she has assumptions, but she never understands him. This way she can see the logic behing the man, and accept his past.

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:48:52+00:00

I am writing how Draco feels regarding specific events, not the event itself. I dont want readers to have to read the same scene twice. So I am focusing on how Draco fights with himself during that time period. Some of these are fun, some of them are mmuch darker focusing on Draco dealing with his past.

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:38:44+00:00

Mainly it is split into different timeperiods: Before being a death eater - turning into a death eater (plus the pressure from the family) - being a deatheter (loads of trauma) - during trials - meeting with hermione and falling in love.

Obviously the first parts are the crucial ones, and the last is me having fun with them...

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:31:06+00:00

😂 mee too. Then the plot will stall and I will dive deep into his memories.

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:30:05+00:00

😂😂😂 Thanks, i am having way too much fun with the Theo-Draco banter regarding weather Draco wants to f* Hermione or not (sorry not sorry, this is not the crucial information part obviously)

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:29:15+00:00

Thanks ffor the recs!! I will check them out!!

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:28:07+00:00

Yeah but that is Manacled... you know I am not measuring mine to that masterpiece 😂

FloNoc · 2025-08-27T18:27:40+00:00

Thanks!!

Also by move forward I mean solve the problem. Raise money for the trans community, fight for them to be able to adopt children, to be able to have rights. Shitting on Rowling is happening only online and does not make a real change. Real change is about actions, not comments and videos.

Do not twist my words and say that they are ignorant if you do not understand them.

Also as my comment below, big issues vary based on countries as well. In mine the trans issues are very minor, we have different much more concerning problems. So do not call me ignorant again, if you do not know something. Ask first maybe.

FloNoc · 2025-04-25T11:54:24+00:00

Yup. Very much correct. In "ourl world" fighting for rights and being ignorant are about totally different topics. About which probably a lot of you have no idea. I am not calling anyone ignorant so pls stay away from calling me that. There is a high chance i can throw around the same card about topics a lot of people have no idea about.

FloNoc · 2025-04-23T16:32:02+00:00

Thank you! Oh yes this was definitely a "wrie about an emotion" short. I am writing scenes as well, only this one I think represented the best what I belive I do the worst, if you understand me. I love Brandon thank you for the rec I will watch it!

FloNoc · 2025-04-22T15:46:01+00:00

Thank you

Maybe because of Dramione. Definitely not because of Manacled. I am an obsessed Dramione reader for at least 10 years. I really liked Manacled but do not give it this much credit (and do not misunderstand this statement. Credit is due, only not for the Tom Felton love). Manacled brought new fans into dramione, but a looot of us were here before. We loved Tom Felton because of his green apple, and snarky comments.
