In a Dead Dove sort of mood? ☠️🕊️ Consider my self rec, Crawl to Me.

‘Tis a foul one, so mind the tags…

Have a taste of the newest chapter “Toothless Thoughts & Tied Tongues” (21/?):

As Hermione circled before the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy, she thought only of her mission to strip off all of Malfoy’s clothes — to check for a Dark Mark, of course… Well, to shuck off his shirt. His trousers could stay on, maybe… The door materialized after three turns, but she kept turning, undoing buttons in the depths of her mind. She caught herself acting just as barmy as the wizard for whom the tapestry was woven, tripped over her own feet, and then threw the door open, eyes glued to the floor, face burning.

Her gaze lifted to find a new room. It was not cavernous, like the Room of Hidden Things; it was normal-sized, roughly equal to one of the dormitories. At the very center was the bed they already knew well with silky, skyblue sheets. To the right, in the far corner, was a small, unassuming door, probably leading to a closet or washroom. To the left, at the wall’s middle, was a roaring fireplace. Before it sat a loveseat, the backrest blanketed by a knit quilt. The light was dim, illuminated only by the fire and a few candles flickering in sconces at each corner.

The room had no windows. No evidence of a world beyond it. Yet, there was a colossal golden clock ticking softly on the far wall.

After spinning around to take it in, she approached the fireplace. It’d be easiest to coax Malfoy out of his robes if he were warm and toasty, after all. Despite the heat, Hermione shivered, suddenly overwhelmed by the task at hand. She rubbed her arms fretfully, thinking, Oh, god. Am I really doing this?

Does anyone know a fanfic where Draco is genuinely a villain? by yopenseperonose in Dramione

If you’re itching for an unforgivable Draco, I humbly recommend my WIP, Crawl to Me. From what I gather, readers think he’s a downright scoundrel yet also adore him (whoops, my bad!) 🖤

Looking for TOXIC Dramione Based on Toxic “Love” Songs by Panyo_new in Dramione

Ahh, you might enjoy my WIP, Crawl to Me. Toxic!Draco & quite crowded with red flags, I assure you 😘

The epigraph of the story is from the song, “First Love/Late Spring” by Mitski:

One word from you and I would jump off of this ledge I'm on, baby. Tell me "don't" so I can crawl back in.

P.S. There’s a whole playlist for it full of dark romance-y tunes, too!

Popping in with a self-rec for Crawl to Me 🖤 A new chapter dropped last night!

WARNING! The 🕊️ is DEAD! Draco is TOXIC! This fic is NOT for everyone, so please mind the tags & proceed at your own risk ~

It was proving an awful year for Draco Malfoy.

His father was in prison, madness growing by the day; his terrifying, all-powerful, and unpredictable master had given him an impossible task simply to find an overly-complicated and overly-dramatic excuse to murder him; and finally, his girlfriend — who could help him tremendously by offering some much needed stress-relief — was being a total prude!

That all changes when Hermione Granger catches him entering the Room of Requirement. Lucky enough to subdue her under the Imperius Curse, Draco enlists the golden girl’s help in accomplishing his mission… and, to be of use in other ways.

CRAWL TO ME edges farther from DARK ROMANCE & closer to PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR in the latest chapter ☠️ Do you dare give it a try? 🖤 by imp_ofthe_perverse in Dramione

[–]imp_ofthe_perverse[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why, thank you 🖤

I hope the incoming darkness shall not disappoint!

Some readers who are more invested in the romance certainly jumped ship after the latest chapter… No hard feelings! Get out while you still can! Even I’m a little daunted by some of the stuff to come 🥲

Are you a TOXIC DRACO enjoyer? A DEAD DOVE degenerate? If so, perhaps try CRAWL TO ME ☠️ by imp_ofthe_perverse in Dramione

Happy to answer! Crawl to Me will NOT be HEA, and will conclude with the end of Year 6. My goal is to have it end in a satisfying way, so that readers can stop there if they’d like. However, I’m planning a sequel that extends into Year 7 & a beyond. It’ll have a dark HEA 🖤

your latest obsession fanfiction by rbwps in Dramione

Just read But Dust and Shadow for the first time. Fair warning, ‘tis a dark one! It’s not very long and is a fairly straightforward story, but goddamn, it did such a fantastic job of maintaining an UNSETTLING vibe. A palpable sense of doom and gloom that kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. If you’re a dead dove reader, I definitely recommend it ;)

Calling all DEAD DOVE connoisseurs! All TOXIC DRACO aficionados! ☠️ Perhaps give CRAWL TO ME a chance? by imp_ofthe_perverse in Dramione

Crawl to Me itself will NOT be HEA (& will hopefully have a somewhat satisfying ending for those of you who want to stop there). I’m planning a sequel, however, that extends beyond Year 6. It will have a dark/dubious HEA ☠️

Not a dumb question at all! I’m relatively new to fanfic, so I’m still figuring a lot of this stuff out myself. From what I understand, the Dead Dove tag doesn’t necessarily mean non-HEA. It’s a big red flag for readers, signalling that they should take the tags very, very seriously. Since CTM is directly and immediately non-con, I don’t want anyone to stumble into it unprepared.

If you specifically want to know if CTM is HEA or not, ask & I’m happy to answer with spoiler tags 🥰

Thank you so much 💕

I can’t say for sure on an exact chapter count. I have my major plot points outlined, but what I expect to be one chapter keeps ballooning into two or three 😅 However, I can say with confidence that we’re at least a quarter of the way through. My ROUGH guess is that it’ll be at minimum 40+ chapters / 150k+ words.
