Stop, drop and flail

I-- I don't know what this is. How-- I-- ? There used to be words, and sentences, and things, and now there's just THIS ART.

It's the hand. Harry's hand, and Draco's wand, and OMG THE TROUSERS, but the HAND, NGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH, I just-- OH GOD WHYYYY, I USED TO HAVE A LIFE AND NOW THIS.

I was good and resisted posting it here full size so that you can all go to tumblr and worship the artist in person. But really I want to wallpaper my house with it. Or just my retinas. I could have it surgically implanted on my retinas, yes?

It has been quite a while since anything got me right in the feels like this, like I'm just FIZZING with H/D and my entire body is just a ball of SLASHY FANGIRL ECSTASY, and it just won't stop.

Draco's arse. It's some form of Dark magic. But the hand, though. *whimper*

No, no. It's not the hand, it's Draco's back, and his neck and the way his head is tilted to the side and his arm and ngggh! his arse. Yes!

It is the hand and bowed head combination. *nods* The perfectly straight back, perfect, perfect arse and the way he's letting Potter do whatever he wants with him. *drools with lust and doesn't care*

Holy... hell...

Oh my fucking jesus shit, that is incredible!!!! That lighting! The lighting on Draco's shoulders in combination with the light from Harry's spell, it's unbelievable. Their SHOES. THEIR BODIES. Harry's freaking cloak all piled at the bottom, and their belts and Harry's freaking wand holster and Draco's PERFECT BUM. THIS IS SO PERFECT, WHAT THE FUCK. The texture on Draco's motherfucking gorgeous vest, and the way we can't really see but we know his hair is falling in his face!!! Just--this is the absolute definition of "I can't even." I'm just dead. OH my god. Thank you for sharing, this is the greatest Monday fuel a fangirl could get.

I AM FRIGHTENED OF ITS EVIL POWERS, HOLD ME

[birdsofshore]

*FIST BITE*
I MAY NEVER RECOVER FROM THIS

THE WAND POINTING DOWN AND AWAY. OMG, The abdication* of power. HNNNNNNGH.

*do i mean abdication? Do i mean abnegation? My fingers and my brain are NOT CO-OPERATING

[birdsofshore]

I KNOW. I KNOW.

How are we ever supposed to get over this? TELL ME HOW.

[birdsofshore]

YES. YES. YES. TOTAL YES. ALL OF IT, EVERYTHING, YES, HOLY FUCK YES.

I kind of really want to grope Draco's bum atm, this isn't even normal...

[catplusfox.livejournal.com]

I AM NOW TUMBLR STALKING THIS POOR PERSON, THANK YOU

[catplusfox.livejournal.com]

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING AT WORK TODAY??!??

[catplusfox.livejournal.com]

IT'S NORMAL, JUST GO WITH IT

[raitala.livejournal.com]

It doesn't really matter does it? The point is, for all the tension in his pose, he's giving himself over to Harry. Surrender without softness and Harry's grim face that could be just concentration, but could also be a sneer. I do not think that there is anything more currently relevant to my interests in existence.

HAHAHAH ♥

I saw it last night about 11.30 pm and then couldn't sleep. Ideas for fic and god knows what invaded my brain and sexually assaulted me for hours. Then this morning I made myself not look at it again until I had at least fed and dressed my children. I knew its evil powers by then. But it sucked me back into its vortex of beauty by wiggling Draco's shiny arse at me until I succumbed. And now it owns me.

So, er, yeah. I sympathise.

[birdsofshore]

Yeah, you and 15,000 whimpering fangirls. Did you see the notes that thing got in like 24 hours?

[birdsofshore]

SHE'S RIGHT. WHO COULD SEE THAT ARSE AND NOT FANTASISE ABOUT JUST RUNNING THEIR HAND OVER ITS SHINY PERFECTION AND *SQUEEEEEEEZING*

[birdsofshore]

I'm not sure if there is in fact anything else IN existence other than this art.

Haven't been jaw-droppingly owned by a fanwork like this for a little while.

I might need you to come round and give me a good slap in a minute before I just. Sit. Here. Forever.

You should totally Askbox Alekina and copy her to this post, because she deserves to know how completely she has thrown us into disarray. I haven't been so conclusively kicked up the bum creatively by a fellow artist since mid-2000s lilithium :)

[birdsofshore]

Oh yes! I may have messaged her already, er, expressing admiration. I hope it was vaguely coherent. Er. I will do that!

[vaysh]

It's clearly what H/D is all about. It's that Draco lets Harry do this to him, willingly and still defiantly, and that Harry has the kind of power, both magically and psychologically, to do it.

GASP i downright just squealed. So gorgeous!

[birdsofshore]

I just don't understand why it's so perfect. It's almost hurting. I couldn't sleep for ages last night after I saw it!
