reawakening (E, 22.5k) by clareypotter / @clarey-potter for @slythercrux
It's nearly one year after the war, and the castle is reawakening. Strange rooms appear at odd hours, filled with ancient artifacts and unknown magics. When Harry and Draco are assigned detention in one of the newly awakened rooms, they discover first-hand that the latent magic holds far more than they expect. There aren't going to be any secrets after this detention.
TL;DR: The boys embark on a Hanahaki speedrun. It's a curse. They aren't having fun.

“Honestly Harry,” Hermione said, pouring out a cup of tea, “did you really forget your anniversary again?”
“Same time every year mate,” said Ron, coming to the table with a plate of scones. “Don’t know how you keep messing this up.”
“Uhn,” said Harry, sinking his head down on the table. “Dates.”
Harry screwed up, and needs his friends to help him. They do their best.
Hold Me Tight (G, 5.3k) by slythercrux / @slythercrux for Jen_814
With Voldemort’s death on the fateful Halloween night in Godric’s Hollow, Harry’s life at Hogwarts has lacked a sense of excitement, until his Sixth Year, when Draco Malfoy transferred in from Durmstrang Institute.
“Was that supposed to be a pick-up line?” Draco responded with a lazy smirk. “10 points for originality. Surprising, I know, but I've really never heard that one before. You could stand to improve, though. The delivery was quite weak. Here, let me show you.”
He twirled his hair as he gave Harry a once over with his eyes, then dropped his pitch to give himself a husky voice. “Are you sure you’re not part-Veela or something, because I can’t seem to keep my eyes off you.”
Harry stuttered, “Uh, um.”
Draco leaned in, whispering sultrily, “Looks like it worked.”
Flower Children and Ring Bearers (NR, 8.4k) by karameiwaku for @clarey-potter
When half of Hogwarts comes down with a mysterious breathing sickness, including the Boy-Who-Lived-To-Be-A-Thorn-In-His-Side, Draco looks around for patterns amid the chaos to figure out what is going on, and why.

How to (Not) Train Your Dragon (G, Digital Art) by Jewelmilk / @jewelmilk​ for @digthewriter​
Draco and Harry (quite literally) bump into each other at a coffee shop in Romania after not seeing each other for 10 years, and what's that book Draco's reading?
