Commission 🤍

come get ya juice

Draco is small and the world is big when his mother takes him by the hand and points to the sky.

It’s a time of in-betweens. After a war, but before a war. After infancy, but before boyhood. After he’s learned how it feels to be loved unconditionally, but before he’s learned how love changes when it comes with conditions.

“Vesper,” she tells him, squeezing his small hand. “That’s the evening star.”

It’s so bright, he doesn’t even notice the dark beginning to settle all around it.

Winner of Best Prose, Most Creative Prompt Use, and Best Overall, and Runner Up for Best Romance in the Wizarding Writers’ World Quill Quest: Cocktail Party.

I know this so dumb but my favorite dramione trope is Draco being like “you idiot gryffindor stop trying to die for people who don’t deserve you 😡” but then also being like “hermione I love you I don’t deserve you and I will die for you 🙂” It gets me every time lmao

I’m reading Green Light by SereneMusafir and I’m genuinely so gagged at what an emotional journey I’m going through. Like I know that there’s no way it’s gonna be a happy ending and knowing that the two of them know that they won’t get a happy ending like I’m siiiick. I’m still only on part one but I’m nearing the end of it and I just can’t stop pausing to reflect on how stressed I am for how this is going to go. Like I know Draco feels me when I say I don’t wanna ever hear about this fool John ever again in my life like Hermione nooooooo.

I feel like it’s extra painful cause I recently saw someone say that it’s nice reading fics with the same pairing over and over cause it’s like they’re soulmates that find each other in any universe. And I’m finding that I’m genuinely overwhelmed by the possibility that there’s a universe that they don’t end up together. I guess that doesn’t mean they aren’t soulmates but that’s so much worse.

Also I keep trying to tell myself that I don’t know for a fact that it’s not a happy ending aside from the fact that hea is blatantly not in the tags lol. Also just because part two is based on great gatsby doesn’t mean it’ll end the same idk. I’m just keeping myself delulu and ignoring the repeating story of Orpheus and Eurydice thank you very much. And sure we find out in the very beginning that Hermione is in New York but that doesn’t necessarily mean what I think it means 🥲

Honestly I can’t even begin to describe how happy I am to have finally found a fic I really like again. Like, since I’ve become a dramione reader, I feel like after reading the big three (manacled, dmatmoobil, the auction) I’ve read others where I’m like yeah that’s nice but I wasn’t super into it. Lowkey I was thiiis close to just taking a break cause nothing else was capturing me like those did. But a game of high stakes!!!! Is soooooo good. I’m so surprised by how sweet the romance is, like I did not expect to be giggling and kicking my feet like this. I don’t even have words for how much I love the element of shared magic like idk it’s just so sweet to me the way they use it. I’m only about halfway through to be fair so hopefully I continue enjoying it but I know it’s tagged as a happily ever after so I’m not too too worried.
