Drarry is a popular fan fiction pairing in the Harry Potter universe that brings together Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, two characters who are often seen as rivals in the original series.

This pairing allows for a blend of tension, drama, and ultimately, love, as readers delve into themes of redemption, acceptance, and personal growth.

06 NSFW content is allowed but must be marked as such.

07 Canon spoilers are free reign; be cautious of fic-specific spoilers.

Any material, lore, or information that comes from canon sources (e.g. original series, Fantastic Beasts movies, old Pottermore, etc.) need not be covered or tagged. If you haven't finished something and don't want to be spoiled, browse at your own risk.

That being said, as a courtesy and kindness, try not to spoil anything in fanfics. If you discuss the end or any sort of twist in a fic, please use a spoiler tag or take it to the DMs.

08 Be mindful when asking for top/bottom specific recs

you can ask for fics where either one of them strictly tops or bottoms, but don't use borderline homophobic language such as ''Harry bottoming is disgusting''.

09 Don't bash fics or authors, or even specific tropes

you can add your reviews for specific fics, but don't be rude or eccessively negative when commenting fics. several drarry authors read this subreddit and you could deeply hurt their feelings and keep them from writing more DRARRY AND WE ABSOLUTELY DON'T WANT THAT

10 No Top/Bottom discourse

lately i have noticed more and more posts where the question ''who do you prefer as top/bottom?'' has resulted in comments bordering on misogyny, heteronormativity and borderline homophobic stereotyping ofter coming up in the responses. i don't want to see this type of discourse on this Community anymore, so for now, I'd rather stop this type of posts completely from being published.

obviously you're all still free to ask for recs with either top or bottom Draco and Harry though!

Looking for slow burn fic where they actually behave like enemies (think Captive Prince Trilogy) (literature.cafe)

Hi everyone!

I read quite a bit of fanfiction within the Harry Potter fandom, and have found some 10/10 (in my personal opinion:)) works in the marauders and dramione fandoms, but never a 10/10 drarry work.

Drarry is my personal favorite ship by far, but I often feel like they fall for each other waaayyy too quickly to be realistic.

They’re aware of their own sexual tension unrealistically early on/the sexual tension is way too obvious, and/or they’re too kind to/tolerant of each other too soon.

I’m a big fan of The Captive Prince Trilogy - the slow burn and enemies to lovers plot was absolutely immaculate (I firmly believe all drarry shippers will absolutely love the CaPri trilogy), and I’m searching for a drarry fic where they feel as negatively toward each other as the CaPri protagonists for a while, treat each other as meanly, and take as long to fall for each other.

(Bonus would be if it explores their trauma like in CaPri.)

For reference, the closest I’ve felt to finding a drarry work as described was Men Who Love Dragons Too Much.

I loved that work, the writing and felt their characterizations were incredibly true to canon, but again I didn’t feel that there was enough enmity between them, and !!!!!MWLDTM spoiler until end of sentence but this is my first reddit post and idk how to blur it!!!!! that the mate trope made them move too quickly for my taste.

I’m hoping for recommendations that don’t rely on a trope like being mates or soul mates to drive their falling in love; but one where they fall in love of their own accord and one that explores their trauma with plenty of angst (but a happy ending).

Not a must, but additionally I’d like if the romance isn’t the only plot. With CaPri, I really enjoyed that there was an entire plot going on outside of the romance.

(Come to think of it, if anyone has any recommendations for any works/books matching this description, whether in a different fandom or even published, I’m very interested!)

TLDR: looking for drarry fic recs with a very slow burn where they actually are and act like enemies before falling in love, works similar to captive prince trilogy, ideally with angst and their romance not being the only plotline
