The slashy cure for the common cold

birdsofshoreWell, yesterday I complained that I was feeling ill and having a crappy day, and then things just started happening, and gorgeous things too.
First,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lumosed_quill wrote me a gorgeous cross gen blow job PWP, just because I basically whined at her until she did. ♥ A blow job by any other name is a delicious glimpse of Draco / Albus Severus wrongness, with past H/D to titillate us further.
Thenfirethesound posted a comic she drew for me. This possibly needs a little explanation. On fire's birthday, I decided it would be a good idea to draw some art for one of her fics. Pretty shitty art, because I am no artist. And I hadn't actually read the fic I wanted to illustrate. But I asked capitu to describe it, so that was totally OK. *snort* Don't ask why I thought this was a good plan.
Anyway, when it was my birthday, what could I ask for except shitty fanart for a fic she'd never read. INSTEAD, SHE DID THIS:
A comic adaptation of Checking Out the Opposition by birdsofshore (as drawn by someone who has never actually read the story). (NSFW)
It's HILARIOUS and warped and PERFECT. ♥ You have to see it, and you don't need to have read my fic - for a start, it's far funnier than the actual fic was. And surprisingly faithful to the original, too (she askedcapitu to describe the story to her * double snort*)
Then,awickedmemory drew THIS:
LOOK LOOK! Harry and Draco are looking after me! And I'm drinking tea with my fabulous long bill! ♥ Look at my feet sticking out from the blanket! And I can't tell whether Draco is just sad in his soul that I am ill, or secretly thinking "I have to sit on the FLOOR? Next to a horrible basket of USED TISSUES? You can catch DISEASES from birds, you know..." :DDD
And then finally,dustmouth posted one of her amazing art dumps, and this time I think she's really surpassed herself. ♥ She drew my prompt of Draco being an artist's model, and so many other quirky, funny things for other people, that I just kept scrolling up and down and up and down again, and laughing, and beaming.
Anyway, I'm not exactly cured (and the baby has just started sniffling like mad *wail*), but I certainly feel an awful lot better being surrounded by the fandom equivalent of a warm blanket and a hot honey and lemon. ♥
OMG, I nearly forgot. Harry Styles gave an interview in which he said gender was "not that important" in a relationship. ♥ EEEEEEE! It was more along the lines of a jokey aside than a definitive statement of sexual orientation, but it made my heart sing, anyway.
THANK YOU, LOVELY PEOPLE \o/

Get well soon!

It's really astonishingly good. You don't have to know who any of them are, at all. Let me know if you try it; it has sent a few of us down the rabbit hole into shipping Gryles (possibly the WORST pairing smoosh name EVER).

And it was amazingly approachable for someone who knows nothing about it. So a lot of what's in there is true? Like, the clothing-stealing? That makes me flail in particular, for some reason, and now I want fic of Draco stealing all of Harry's sweaters and socks.

He obviously thought no-one would be weird and obsessed enough to notice. HOW WRONG HE WAS.
