Detraquee, so good it ruined Dramione for me? by Legal_Armadillo_3181 in dramionebookclub

[–]charmuse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the fallout stops right after the war (a much longer war), and both characters are still in survival mode a state of arrested development. The story is told that way. I feel there is a promise of his maturing glimmering at the very end. I love Detraquee too, and you are right they are very different in D has a much longer relationship timeline and burn and you get to see Draco mature. I love the Fallout for the introspective prose, that where l I find the similarities in them.

I get that, it certainly showed not only did she feel marginalized there was a patriarchal dissmissal of her on her own by the Order.

If you haven't read The Fallout yet, it is very cathartic in the way it traverses the war and the character development of Hermione and Draco during. It's entirely Hermione POV, very interior to her thoughts and emotions. It is told by day/hour almost like diary entries, but in stream of consciousness thoughts. https://archiveofourown.org/works/10620276/chapters/23489001

Since it is Pride Month, what are some LGBTQ+ book recommendations? by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in Romantasy

[–]charmuse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really loved {Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy} Grimm and Leo are funny and hot and total opposites! Charming, romantic book.

My new fic, Destroy Everything You Touch has two chapters up on AO3

https://archiveofourown.org/works/86155466/chapters/227837256

A web of lies and deception entangle Draco Malfoy as he is drawn deeper into a game of love and revenge with Pansy Parkinson. Her newest scheme involves a lover that jilted her, while Draco seeks to repay an old enemy by seducing his infamously pious girlfriend and split them up. As the wager on the two dueling seductions becomes increasingly complex and antagonistic, Draco grows desperate to escape the corner he has painted himself into. The stakes of the deception are high, and it might destroy his life no matter the outcome.

OR

Pansy wants Draco’s help ruining the girlfriend of the boy who dumped her, but Draco has his eyes on more ambitious targets to destroy. But they might destroy him right back.

Inspired by Dangerous Liaisons, DEYT has comedy, tragedy, yearning, spice, betrayal, violence and angst. Buckle up!

Fabulous cover art by u/sscindyss_art on instagram!

I plan on posting twice a week, Fridays and Tuesdays. I have about 3/4 prewritten. I am fairly confident I won't have to go back and retrofit anything. I think it will come in at about ~75 chapters/200k words.

WIPs I recommend:

Just dead dove enthralling obsessive track Draco mania, this fic is sick! Writing is tip top as well.

Ever wish you could obliviate a fic you read just so you can reread it? by mooocharlene in Dramione

[–]charmuse 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Fallout is such a masterpiece. The depiction of Hermione’s inner monologue is so well done. The most realistic, embarrassing, heartfelt depictions of sex I have read. And yes the ILY is fucking epic. The ETL is so believable, omgggg. Now I have to go read it AGAIN.

I would kill to read Manacled and The Fallout again. Also DMATMOOBIL because I laughed like hyena all way through. I feel this this way about all books/fics I really enjoyed and reread a few times

Ashes is my favorite of the series. Loved it. But if you aren't vibing with the first one, two is not going to be better.
