    Summary

    On the cusp of a promotion, Harry needs a little help with his image. Enter Draco Malfoy — who doesn't really do that, Potter — to whip him into shape… and make him feel things he hasn't for a very long time.

    Featuring: odd jobs, surprising chemistry, lots of accidental kissing, the Prophet living up to type, owls exhausted by the carrying of dirty letters, a secret no one can talk about, a merry band of Slytherins (none of whom really approve), and an enchanted mirror (who really, really does).

    Summary

    If asked on his 18th birthday what he thought he’d be doing in three years, Harry never would have been able to predict that his answer would be “letting Draco Malfoy fuck me senseless over the sinks in the loo of a Muggle bar”.

    This is how the story begins.

    He never thinks to ask how it ends.

    Summary

    Harry Potter is obsessed with Draco Malfoy and constantly watches as he drifts about Hogwarts like one of the ghosts. Harry decides it's time for him to end their rivalry once and for all, so he befriends him. Falling in love was not part of the plan.

    Or

    Draco comes back for his eighth year at Hogwarts after spending the summer in Azkaban and predictably, very few people are happy about it.

    Summary

    When Potter starts paying unusual amounts of attention to Draco as the holidays draw nearer, Draco can't figure out where it's coming from—possibly because he's gone stupid from all the fantastic sex. But what happens when he finds out that there may be another motive behind Potter's sudden interest?

    Or: A fic in which Potter is hotter than Draco ever let himself admit, Draco didn't fill out that fucking form, and Pansy may or may not lose all of her hair.

    Summary

    “I wanted to say—I don’t want to see you at ten o’clock on Tuesday—”

    “Yes, actually, you were quite clear—”

    “—but I’d like to see you at eight o’clock tomorrow evening.”

    Malfoy’s face was abruptly carefully, professionally blank.

    “What?” he said eventually.

    “For dinner,” Harry clarified. “Somewhere that isn’t the bloody Leaky Cauldron. If you’re free.”
