Summary: Harry felt Malfoy's breath on his lips as they came together over the bottle, hands firmly planted on the floor as though they each needed their familiar soil, refusing to cross into enemy territory. //Except that Malfoy no longer felt like his enemy. // Malfoy felt inevitable.

Oh my god, you guys are in for such a treat with this story. It's so, so perfect.

From the beginning, Harry and Draco meeting at Madam Malkin's for the first time after the war, seeing them back at Hogwarts, see them change and grow and be the people they were meant to be, or maybe the people the war made of them.

This story is about that, about growing, in a way. About their lives in a world where things are different; where the differences that separated them aren't there, they are starting to fade. About chances and seeing each other.

And at the same time, it's such a fun story, there's so much UST – God, so much! (later resolved, and boy, in what way!), the want, the glances, kisses and touches (blow jobs and wanking session, god!). All said in three chapters alluding party games. It starts with a Twister game, then with Spin the Bottle and finally Truth or Dare. And through this, we see Harry and Draco having this thing, flirting with a relationship, conflicts and ache and sorrow and healing and happiness, and it's beautiful.

The story is illustrated by iwao, some of the art is Not Safe For Work, and all of it is gorgeous. The scenes come to live through her art. They are sexy and meaningful, beautiful, and perfect to accompany this story. Don't miss it.

Trust me, those 73K are going to fly by, and you'll love word and every drawing.

I'm so glad you liked the car! I'm in love with the idea of Harry having one. Obviously. :-D

Your idea is brilliant!

I always, always, always wonder what the author thinks of a rec because, you know, it's a reader's perception and I wonder if they are "o.O" or ":D" or "meh". lol *hugs*

<333

IWAO rocked your bang! <333 I want her to come and smooch the heck out of her. ^^

[capitu]

There's plenty of H/D goodies at Harrybang. :D And this fic, man, top favourite for me. I hope you enjoy it, too! <3

highly recommended EIGHTH YEAR fic!!!

Holy hELL THIS FIC WAS AMAZING. I mean just look at the top notch art. I adored the extra characters (ned and gordon) and the way everyone was portrayed was fantastic. I experienced a whirlwind of emotions (snape though) reading this and I enjoyed it after finishing it in one seating.

Definitely a worthy recommend and it had one of the things I loved. The party games!! I wish there were more fics that included spin the bottle, truth or dare, etc but they can get a bit cheesy or unbelievable sometimes. It was totally not the case for this one.

Thank you so much for this recommend, capitu! You are an absolute sweetheart for maintaining this site and I hope you continue to do so ^^

Re: highly recommended EIGHTH YEAR fic!!!

[capitu]

I KNOW!!!! *hold hands and jumps* Isn't it the best? :D I love the original characters, Ned-the-Hufflepuff and Gordon were awesome! ^^

I'm so happy you liked it just as much as I did.

And so, SO happy you've been enjoying the recs here! Thank you for telling me! Made my day. <33
