The slashy cure for the common cold
Nov. 6th, 2014 03:43 pmWell, yesterday I complained that I was feeling ill and having a crappy day, and then things just started happening, and gorgeous things too.
First,
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.
Then
firethesound 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 asked
capitu 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/

(I also loved that H/D comic so much I asked

Date: 2014-11-08 05:50 pm (UTC)I think LQ would do a lovely job of it. I really don't write next-gen, so if I went at it, it'd just be Draco bitching to Harry. Which might work, I guess.
"Rage boner," Draco announced.
Harry blinked at him, feeling as though he'd missed something. Because surely Draco Malfoy turning up on his doorstep at eight o'clock and announcing 'rage boner' ought to come with a bit of backstory.
"Rage boner," Draco repeated, pushing past Harry, and Harry shuffled back a step to let him in.
"Sorry, repeating it won't make me suddenly know what you're talking about," Harry said, shutting the door. He wished he'd taken the time to pull on more than a pair of pajama bottoms before he'd stumbled downstairs to answer the door.
"My son," Draco said, "is in a band called Rage Boner. Dying his hair. The pierced ears. And now this." He stabs an accusatory finger in Harry's direction. "Your son is a bad influence on him."
Harry had long since given up on trying to control Al. "Well," he said. "It could always be worse. I mean, when I was their age, I was breaking into Gringott's and stealing dragons." Draco blinks at him, and Harry gives him a nod. "It helps to keep things in perspective."
