( some general thoughts on writing )

First, recs!

What I Wouldn't Let You Do by lightofdaye
Lily's flirting goes awry when she teases the wrong person.
Draco/Lily Luna, NC-17, 2,250 words, warnings

So honored and touched to get such hot filth for my birthday, LOL!! Obviously read the warnings/tags, but if you enjoy crossgen and general dirtywrongness as much as I do, you will LOVE this fic. Draco is CC-compliant but still every bit the antagonist we know and love from the books, and Lily is too bold for her own good and in way over her head. Or maybe Draco is. ;) Either way, there are some really nice touches that might give you unexpected feels for Draco and the scenario portrayed and hope for more for the two of them. Thank you, Daye!


Inevitability by delacourtings
Lily Luna Potter was put on this earth to torture him, Neville is sure of it.
Neville/Lily Luna, R, 836 words, warnings
On Dreamwidth

I was thrilled when I saw delacourtings claim my lipstick prompt, but they really pulled the double-whammy on me with this pairing. This fic plays with one of my favorite things — smut-tinged fic where the tension is left unresolved. Neville's thoughts are hot hot hot, with all the conflicted guilt that makes this kind of pairing so irresistible to me. A crossgen gem!


The Artist and the Auror by digthewriter
Ron needs to get a professional portrait done. He's surprised to find out who the artist is, and is struggling to get along with her.
Ron/Pansy, PG, 1,500 words
On Dreamwidth • On AO3

Oh my! I had no idea I'd get a wish filled so quickly at rarepair_shorts, and what a lovely gift! Ron and Pansy are SO in-character here, and the banter between them is pitch-perfect, and there are hints of both sadness and hope, written with a nimble touch, which elevate this fic far beyond its light-hearted premise. Check it out!!


And a plug for my own fic for the hphet Mini Fest 2020. First thing I've written this year, and I thoroughly enjoyed letting loose on it. :D

Back Alley Type
Two unwanted people meet in a pub.
Cormac/Pansy, NC-17, 930 words, warnings
On Dreamwidth • On AO3


Also two events on my radar...

Hope everyone is well and safe. If you've got anything particular on your fandom radar right now, feel free to share below!

I'm sure everyone is aware, but here's a reminder anyway that there are 2 days left to prompt for hp_crossgenfest. I've put in several prompts this morning across categories and have a few more percolating. There's a generous claiming/writing window, so, muse willing, I hope to participate. I hope you will consider it as well.

This fest definitely serves one of my biggest kinks. Many thanks to gracerene for running it again!
