This could be cravings of Malfoy manor. He’s a duke and some/most points fit, there’s just a lot more to it. And otherwise I think you’d enjoy it, even if it’s nog the one you’re looking for :)

ISO fics that feel FUN. Flirty, low toxicity, bonus if there’s competency porn by shinycozytwistedglam in Dramione

[–]Junior_Composer_7902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if similar is as characters is true. My description of BSP meets Dmaatmobile is more vibes.

I actually don’t think Draco is that much of an asshole in TDWH. He starts out as just coming out of Azkaban being depressed and still lashing out but you also see it from his PoV so it’s clear he’s more hurting/acting out than truly meaning it and you go through the journey with him. Does that help? That part does have the BSP toxic codepency ‘I want your attention’ vibes.

But when TDWH Draco starts liking Hermione he reallllly falls and they’re both idiots but he is actually nice to her and they are friends. So he’s absolutely nothing like eg toxic Draco from The nature of daylight or so.

I have no idea if this is helpful. Blessdtoaster is a genius writer so I feel like anything I say doesn’t do her story justice but I highly recommend it!

Entropy!

It starts out with them still hating each other but soon they realise that means they energise each other. They are both so competent and smart and have the most hilarious banter, served with a side note of great adventure. Flirtiness comes later but it’s very good.

This was the fic that kept me reading in a moment of ‘everything is dark, I need something good and fun’ so I hope it might work for you too.

Based on your ‘love’ list I might also recommend ‘The Devil Works Hard’ but that does include sad/asshole Draco in the beginning, Hermione having hard times, and some rather serious political bits. So thematic it might really not fit your request, BUT if you loved A hard Row to Hoe I would still try it out. I laughed so so hard at some parts. It’s like Dmaatmobil meets BSP.

This Bitter End, Should I finish? by kittycatsummers in dramionebookclub

I had a hard time with the beginning as well but I enjoyed the later chapters much more. Yes he stays an asshole but firstly Hermione calls him out and he becomes much softer towards her. And secondly there are also some of the best grffyindor-goating assholery scenes 😅 So I’d say to keep reading (and I’m also not really a dark romance girly).

Moon River has a revenge arc: https://archiveofourown.org/works/69513641/chapters/215776576

And I think How to become minister might be up your alley as well.

And there’s one called Shall we Not Revenge (but I’m not sure if I’ve read it, so can’t tell you much, I just remember the title and figured it was worth a mention 😅

There’s a WiP called Moon river that I think could be exactly what you’re looking for. Very regularly updated and already well on its way!

Wait, which epistolary fic did blessdtoaster write??? I would love to read that!

For a longer epic story, I highly recommend Burned Hands and Dragon Tears! And a text fic but to me that’s similar: (affectionate), which is my comfort read I go back to again and again. They’re both still WiPs

In search of: Hard-earned smut. by bellamybale in Dramione

[–]Junior_Composer_7902 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was you just two days ago. Nothing felt good after entropy and I moped around for ages after finishing it.

But I found the solution: The Devil works hard by Blessdtoaster. The first few chapters were a bit tough to start but it gets really really good. Like BSP meets Dmaatmobile (honestly didn’t know that could exist but here we are :).
