    Summary

    Five years after the war, Draco Malfoy has fought everything and everyone to get to where he is. Sure, his mental health might be shit, but he has a job and that's something, right? He thought that having an Auror drop in for a surprise inspection of his Potions' lab was bad enough, but why is the Auror wearing a glamour? And why is the custom potion he wants so urgent and shrouded in secrecy? When people start dying, Draco gets consulted for a case with none other than Auror bloody Potter.

    Aka a semi self-indulgent fic where Draco is a very smart, broken, soft boy and Harry is a big bad Auror who actually kind of has his shit together... maybe. Probably not. A lot of people want to cause problems for them. But Harry has a bit of a 'thing' for saving people. And Draco definitely needs saving. But progress isn't linear and it's much easier to heal when you aren't entirely alone.

    Summary

    The five times they showed that they loved each other and the one time they said it...

     

    The first time Draco showed that he loved Harry (though neither of them would call it that until years later), he’d been drowning in an ocean of terror and the world had narrowed to emerald green eyes. Well, one eye at least. Aunt Bella had shoved the wizard to his knees and beckoned to Draco like the witch in Muggle fairy tales, but Draco had obeyed.

    Summary

    Harry had heard, of course, that Draco Malfoy had gone into the private investigator business after resurfacing a few years back. The Ministry had been rife with rumors of all the elusive, high-end cases Malfoy had recently solved, and Harry had no doubt that those rumors were carefully crafted bullshit spread by the 'detective' himself.

    At first, everyone had been itching for any information that could be found about Malfoy's new business. Harry had fallen prey to that same curiosity—purely because he was surrounded by it day in and day out, not because he had any interest in it himself—and had taken some morally grey avenues to learn what he could.

    Ultimately, he had discovered that the Ministry was an absolute shitshow when it came to anything non-magical. There were no forms, no permits, and no qualifications required for someone to be a private investigator and, unless they did something inherently illegal, they could remain utterly invisible.

    Invisible, until they're assigned to the same case.

    Summary

    Harry and Draco were both parselmouths: one born, the other taught. They fought in parseltongue in front of the entire school on a near-daily basis, and the hisses and snarls were easily heard as threats. Except they weren't threats, or even angry. Hermione begins an in-depth study of the language, and Draco and Harry's true relationship unfolds. Drarry/HPDM!

    Summary

    Draco faced the Wizengamot and he felt... nothing. He knew there was no hope: no one was coming, no one would save him, and no one would even care that he'd been executed. He was at peace with his fate. Or, at least, he was until a very familiar head of messy black hair strode into the courtroom.

    Summary

    Draco isn't sleeping after the war and no one else seems to notice or care. Harry's always had a thing for saving people, and Draco looks a little too close to death for him to just let it go.

    Summary

    Harry was only four the first time the Dursleys dumped him with a babysitter... He's assuming playing beauty parlor and spa were part of an average childhood, just like tag or hide and seek. Draco is a little skeptical, though...

    Summary

    Draco knew it was a stupid idea but, somehow, he found himself walking home alone. In the dark. Without a wand. He was pissed and he knew he was just being paranoid... until he heard footsteps behind him.

    Or, Draco gets himself into a bad situation and Harry saves the day (as always). So much fluffy comfort planned.

    Summary

    They were just in it for the sex. That was what Draco always said, and that was what they believed. Until he and Harry get in a fight, and Draco accidentally reveals a few things that he's always been too afraid to say when he thinks Harry isn't listening...

    Summary

    Slytherins had a reputation of being cold, and unemotional. Their only defense mechanism was to endure, to hold onto that facade. And when it broke? Draco wasn't ready for it to break. And he certainly wasn't ready for Harry to be the one to see it.

    Summary

    The list of people Draco considered friends was very short, but the list of people allowed to touch Draco was even shorter. Blaise Zabini, his best friend, could touch him. But no one else. When someone breaks that rule, though, Draco can't help obsessing over it... And the Gryffindor who did it.

    Summary

    Draco could play piano. It wasn't a well known fact, outside of Slytherin, and the music always sounded pained and forced, no matter what he did. Except for one little tune he just can't place... Angsty but no longer a one-shot! Drarry! Mentions of homophobia

    Summary

    Harry couldn't really say he was surprised when he got the letter in the mail announcing Vernon Dursley's death. He knew exactly what to do, but, in a much more real sense, he had no idea what to do. HPDM comforty relationship fic! Aunt Petunia bashing! Mentions of underage drinking
