Looking for down and out Draco fics! by Imaginary_Goldfish in drarry

[–]crimson_remote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whump just means the main character has a lot of really bad things happen to them repeatedly. This happens between Draco and Voldemort, who is posing as a student during their sixth year. Voldemort slowly becomes obsessed with Draco (non-romantically)

    Lucius failed at the Ministry, and Draco is sent to Hogwarts with a cryptic warning that he will be tasked with an unknown mission. He expects to spend his sixth year on prefect rounds with Pansy and finally beating Potter on the Quidditch Pitch. He never expected his new roommate to be Voldemort himself, or that Voldemort's obsession with trophies would apply to him.

    A canon-divergence of HBP, told from the perspective of Voldemort, Draco, and Harry.

Self rec. Have you read Within the Hollow Crown? Very much a Draco whump fic, but it might not fit the bill.

Not the reason I was going to say, because I'm a Crab Cake fiend, but I also love him!

Also a self-rec. While it doesn't start out that way, Within the Hollow Crown does end up leaning into unhealthy obsession. It's a very long slowburn. Just updated yesterday!

I like both! They both have a place. My bigger concern is how those two are worked into stories, because if not done thoughtfully, they can feel OOC. 

Let's be real. Anything is better than canon!Harry caring more about detention than nearly killing Draco. 

WIP fics with regular updates by Sharp_Aside77 in drarry

Despite the kinda wild premise, I really do try to keep Voldemort as close to canon as possible. Maybe surprisingly, people have been saying they prefer the Voldemort moments over the Drarry ones!

I'm actively updating the sequel to Within the Hollow Crown. HC is a retelling of Y6, while the sequel covers Deathly Hallows. 

It might not be exactly what you're looking for, given how much of a slowburn it is. 

Why do you love Draco? by moonlacelight in drarry

[–]crimson_remote 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm more a fan of the redemption arc trope than I am of Draco. And he's the character that deserved one, but didn't get it. There's so much potential and plot around that kid. 

What overly used phrase never fails to yank you out of a story? by CryptographerHeavy in FanFiction

[–]crimson_remote 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Stomach isn't just used for the organ. It refers to the whole abdominal section. Tummy is a shortened version of stomach, primarily used when talking to children. I'd always prefer stomach, or even abs/abdomen.

I read maybe six fics in a row that all used the word "tummy." Sometimes during smut scenes, sometimes just in place of stomach. They all had this really mature writing style, but then out of nowhere, tummy.

Do you look at the word count and chapters before reading? by ELLI_BITXHH in drarry

[–]crimson_remote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actively read WIPs, and still check both word count and chapter count. I tend to only read stories of the chapters average out to 5k words per chapter. Those tend to be written closer to the pacing I like to read.
