Updates and Holiday Fest Claiming :)

In what would probably be the theme song of my life, if I was cool enough to have a theme song, I’m writing when I should be doing real life work. Sighs. But alas, real life is no fun, and so I find myself once again writing, or at least attempting to write.

I apologize for taking so long to post anything new — I was sort of waiting for hd_owlpost to post reveals so I could do a big claim for fics, but was actually just using that as an excuse, and then RL sort of got away from me and I didn’t end up doing any of that.

But, now I’m here, and I’m attempting to do a fic claiming post!

First, I had the wonderful opportunity to participate in hd_erised and write for ravenclawsquill. Since this was only my second fest, I was — and still am — learning the ropes. But I’m excited to continue learning and improving as a writer :)



Wait for Me to Come Home.

Title:Wait for Me to Come Home
Author:glittering_git
Recipient:ravensclawquill
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco
Rating:NC-17
Word Count: ~9k
Warnings:[Spoiler (click to open)]Light D/S
Summary:Draco might not like the Christmas holidays that much, but he sure does like Potter. If only he could admit that to Potter, or even to himself. A non-linear story about recognising what has been right in front of you the whole time, and maybe, just maybe, being happier because of it.
Author's Notes: I would like to start by thanking my wonderful beta, sabethea , who did a lovely job of catching all of my mistakes and brit-picking, helping to make this story come together in a cohesive manner. I would also like to thank my lovely bestie, L, for always being there for me and my fanfic adventures. Ravensclawquill, I sincerely hope that you enjoy this fic! I tried my best to incorporate at least a few of the things that you asked for—I really liked your statement about what you love most about Harry/Draco and tried to capture some of that here. A huge thank you to the mods of this fest for doing such an amazing job and for their continued patience, encouragement, and kindness! Title is from Ed Sheeran’s Photograph.

Then, I got to write three fluffy pieces for hd_owlpost. It was really fun to participate in this fest because it felt relatively low stress, and it produces such a high volume of amazing works.



A Bed for Next Time.

Gift from: glittering_git
Title: A Bed for Next Time
Summary: Harry looked up from the table, taking in Malfoy’s slim body, his rolled up shirtsleeves—the Dark Mark on display like it was a tattoo one got to be rebellious at 16. And the problem was, in this too hot Muggle club, with Malfoy dressed in leather trousers and a white button-down, it looked good.
Word Count: 1,200

Notes: Kerrilee, I hope that you enjoy this brief oneshot about these two boys. I took your club!fic idea and went with it. To the mods, thank you so much for all of your hard work, kindness, and patience with this fest!

Black Dildos and White Elephants.

Watchers of the Sky.

Gift from: glittering_git
