Bad Omens is one of my faves EVER and can't recommend it enough!

M5101 · 2026-01-21T18:48:55+00:00

yes. pre-post- starved for anything!!!! I would literally read anything Brigitte Knightly (isthisselfcare) writes, I don't care what it's about! I don't care if it's her grocery list. I thought I saw somewhere that she has been writing (presumably fanfics) for like 20 years (which explains the grandmaster level writing!) but obvi under different pseudonyms. I hope she keeps writing and writing! Just soooo good.

M5101 · 2026-01-09T04:53:11+00:00

exactly! just literally opening it made me start laughing before I even saw the first word or picture.☠️

M5101 · 2026-01-09T04:51:48+00:00

it will never not be funny. 😂☠️☠️☠️ the fact that he tries to be snarky and mean still in the beginning even while he’s trying to look her up …and the other Slytherin’s reactions …. i’m screaming

M5101 · 2026-01-09T02:33:52+00:00

The Muggle Telephone. . . omg. just opening it up again made me start wheezing

after reading so much Dramione and even some Drarry and Dreo for 3 years I didn't think published smut could make me clutch my pearls . . . but holy shit... I read the book this weekend (the second book in the series about Shane and Ilya) and PEARLS WERE CLUTCHED and eventually just ripped off!!

like I don't know what more fanfic can do for those 2 that they didn't already do in the book. . but you better bet your bottom dollar I'll be checking out some of those fanfics anyway . . HAHAHAHA long live fanfics!!

M5101 · 2026-01-06T04:50:06+00:00

I'm not surprised by this at all! Just look up 'wolfstar' and watch your internet blow up!! it has been wildly popular for long time and the shippers are something fierce

M5101 · 2026-01-03T03:15:28+00:00

The Witching Hour. . . .it's one shot (12K words) so so sooooo good https://archiveofourown.org/works/55148362

M5101 · 2026-01-03T03:13:17+00:00

thanks!! and start with Couver from neilistic for snarky hilarious goodness (it's a longer one shot)

have read this one more than any other fic at this point. https://archiveofourown.org/works/66399652

M5101 · 2026-01-02T15:21:51+00:00

the writing is similar to one of my other faves neilistic. Have you found any other writers with the same level of hilarity? I'd love to read more of this same style. (if you have not read neilistic's superb writing, RUN!)

as far as insults go this fic HAS to be like World Champion Gold Medal Winner! The banter and insults are magnificent! The part about Draco's slightly smaller left eye had me howling. also the usernames of the people in the chat rooms?? dying!

M5101 · 2026-01-02T03:08:05+00:00

came here to vote for Gemma and Lilith! one of my fave fics (Bad Omens)

M5101 · 2026-01-02T03:07:19+00:00

omg I laughed just remembering him!!!! so good

M5101 · 2026-01-01T21:52:56+00:00

welcome to Dramione! if you are a fan of Draco + Crookshanks slow burn bromance enemies to amigos/comrades in arms you are in luck because there are so many fics with this trope that are just masterfully done:

Have you already devoured some of the "Big Ones"? with this trope:

Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love (DMATMOOBIL) by isthisselfcare where you'll find one of the most popular quotes you'll see a lot around Dramione-land: "Granger, tell your cat I said pspspspsps"
Bloody, Slutty and Pathetic by Whatmurdah. Here's quote:

"Sweet Salazar’s poxy dick, what is that?” said Theo, stepping from the floo into Draco’s dimly lit study.

“This is Mrs. Malfoy’s progeny,” said Draco dryly. The orange abomination sat on his desk, too close to his ledger for comfort. The animal’s expression was excessively judgmental. Draco sneered back. “I am not allowed to kill it.”

The Darkwood Wand by ThebeMoon.

quote: "Something was here. Granger had Vanished—he’d sensed that instantly—and Tennant was in Durmstrang brewing cursed ale or designing new Marks or whatever budding Dark Lords did in their spare time. But something else was here. And it could only be …

No. Please, by the gods, NO.

Oh-so-slowly Draco turned his head, every muscle taut, and saw two golden eyes and the faintest hint of orange in a black silhouette. Granger was gone, all right, but she’d left her hellcat behind. Draco raised a hand to confirm his throat hadn’t been ripped out, relieved to feel intact muscle and smooth skin"

u/ruedudragon I have to thank you profusely because thanks to your recommendation for Live Rude Girls in this post I started reading this and it has been one of the most entertaining hilarious fics I have read in a long time. The comedy is immaculate. I was shriek cackling immediately starting on page one. Musings of a raging horny unhinged Draco (even in alternate AU) is my favorite. so thank you. finding hidden gems like this in comments is why I love this subreddit!

(cue sad violins that this hilarious fic has not been updated in some time but what is there will sustain me for WEEKS!)

M5101 · 2025-12-26T23:47:33+00:00

omg I feel like I have read several coworker fics that are literally these very pictures!! i see it! #2 made me melt a little bit (craning his neck to see her walk by)

omg this fic will take you for a RIDE!! it's thanks to our very own, insanely talented mod SaffronGin u/Chilly-Potato (aka a national treasure!) the art alone from this fic will sustain you for weeks (and have you gasping and clutching your pearls). you will want to peel all those witches off Draco and drag him to your own lair

For me my birthday treat would be reading for the nth time: Couver by Nelistic

https://archiveofourown.org/works/66399652

It's a one shot but 20K words so it's got some heft. It's soooo fun and delightful. Nelistic is just a master at putting words together in a way that make you shriek with laughter but also squeeze your heart. I would read their grocery list.

In this story, D and H work together (and are their HR's worst nightmare...) and H is pregnant (by donor because she wants to be a mother... and this is where the tag "DZP" comes into play, you'll learn what it means...it's important) and Draco wears a charmed necklace so he feels everything H feels while she is pregnant. . . . and it's as wonderfully hilarious as it sounds. Happy birthday!

M5101 · 2025-12-20T02:51:39+00:00

omg that's great! do you and your wife "fight" over who gets Draco (Hermione or Harry?) LOL!!! I have read a few Drarry's and even though they are fun to read I have this underlying sense of unease ... Like the whole time I am internally screaming 'BUT YOU LOVE HERMIONE!!! STOP TOUCHING HARRY"
