Week 4 of the @gwbexchange​ has given us some amazing works!

This week brought us some pining, some letters, and some sweetness! <3 

Here is the gift exchange round-up for week 4: 

This Love is Still Ours (E, 10.5k)

The distance helps with the bond. It’s not as strong as it used to be during eighth year. Distance makes it dormant, as the healers said many years ago. Ever so often when Draco comes back, it roars back to life whenever he’s near Harry. They mutually agree to stay away. Until they don’t.

Per my last letter (I hope you choke on it) (T, 10.2k)

Dear Mr Potter, The answer is, and will remain, a no.

Sincerely, Draco Malfoy Accounts Manager, Phoenix Press

Summary: 

harry’s tipsy after ron and hermione's engagement party, and he's in a sappy, maudlin mood when he writes what he is well aware is the world's worst love poetry. it's not a disaster until ron's excitable owl snatches the VERY PERSONAL AND EXTREMELY TOP SECRET poem and delivers it STRAIGHT TO MALFOY. shut up. it is NOT his fault. the little hearts written around malfoy's name had NOTHING to do with it.

Warnings: None

Summary:

Harry just wanted to bake in peace. He didn't ask for Pansy to invade his friend group with her sheer willpower and Slytherin co-conspirators. But before he knows it, the Slytherins have regular access to his Floo. And then Draco Malfoy starts hanging around while Harry whips up endless birthday cakes and baked concoctions. 

Funny thing, Harry doesn't actually mind Draco's company. Not at all.

Word Count: 32,642

Rating: Mature Audiences

Content: EWE, Curse Breaker Draco, Ex-Auror Harry, Fairytale Elements, Hogwarts Inter-House Friendships, Getting Together, Soft Draco, Awkwardness, Christmas, Hurt/Comfort, Found Family, Bad Flirting, Mild Sexual Content, Nonbinary Character, Muggle Studies

Warnings: Injury Recovery, Angst, Anxiety

Summary:

Hogwarts is putting on a fusion of muggle and wizarding plays over the Yule holidays, to get the students involved with members of different houses and give them something hands-on with their muggle studies. Draco, as a curse breaker on holiday due to an injury that won't seem to heal, is asked to help prevent the kids from accidentally blowing something (or each other) up. And because it's Christmas and he's 100% a caretaker by nature, despite the things people say about him, he agrees immediately.

Draco didn't know that Harry Potter would be there too, showing up after years of complete silence in the wizard world. Nor did Draco expect that seeing him would rekindle... whatever it was they had in their eighth year.
