Romaine's HP fanfics on AO3...hmm a few haven't quite made it on there, but will in the future.
Easy reading is damn hard writing. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
Currently these are my Drarry stories (not including drabbles), Scarry (including drabbles), Other Slash pairings, and Het pairings. I will be adding My gen fics, gift drabbles, etc... as I get more time. Most can all be found on AO3 right now but just not organized. :)
Just a quick note about commenting on my fics. I love comments and to engage with my readers. If you have a question, comment, or whatever I'm open to discussion. As long as it's not a flame, I'll usually respond back. I do ask that you read my tags, warnings, and notes as many of my fics contain controversial genres and situations. I don't bite or even claw so feel free to inquire.
Hi! Welcome to my HP fanfic collection. I became an HP fanfic reader in 2005 and then writer in 2006. I took an almost decade break in 2012 but put my toes back into the waters now and then to respond to comments or make a post on LJ. I came back into fandom full force in June 2021 when I signed up for HP_fan_fair. H/D, HPDM, or Drarry has always been my OTP, but Scarry is my second. But I also love to write the rare-pair now and then along with gen short stories. I've separated my fics out by my writing era and then by ship.
All of my fics are individually rated and have warnings. However, we did rate and tag things differently back in the day, so if you think I should add a warning or tag, send me a message. I assure you, there were no bad intentions involved.
My Drabbles can be assumed to be G to PG, unless otherwise noted. I love writing drabbles and I hope that some readers will take the time to look at a few of them. *g*
Most of my stories are now posted on AO3 and are not to be copied to any other site without my permission. (historically they were originally posted on various HP fanfic sites. Majority of H/D were on Hex Files.
As I was a prolific writer back-in-the-day (2006-2012) and then took a very long hiatus (10 years), I'll be listing my current stories first. After that, it will be a mishmash of ships and gen. I hope you find something you like!
Current Stories (with summaries)
(2025)
Drarry (Harry/Draco) & Haphne (Harry/Daphne)
The Azkaban Letters This fic was started in 2007 and picked back up in 2023 and completed in 2025.
Summary: Harry and Dracoâs lives are headed in two different directions. One is destined for death or glory, while the other is going to Azkaban. Harry needs answers, and he goes to visit his Slytherin nemesis while being held for trial. The meetings in a barren, white cell changes Harryâs life. He learns the beginnings of his rich family history that had been denied him. And that there's much more to fight for than just ridding the world of Voldemort. HBP compliant.
Note: This fic was started before HPDH was released. It is canon divergent after HBP. This fic has two Main Pairings and both are treated with respect and will have a happy ending. I chose to use AO3's: Creator Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings because of the underage sexual scenes (all are 17 and consensual).
Rating: Explicit Wordcount: 358K Warnings & Enticements: Angst, Drama, Hurt/Comfort, Romance, Sexual Content (M/M & M/F), Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Canon divergence after HBP, Azkaban, Mental Health Issues, Potter Family History, Potter family Estate, Character Deaths (not major but not minor), Upholding family bloodlines, Wizarding Traditions, Worldbuilding, Magical Theory, Blood and Violence, Wartime Violence, Bisexual Harry Potter
Drarry (Harry/Draco)
What Doesn't Happen in Venice Stays In... (Autumn 2024) written for @hd-fan-fair's H/D Muggle Fair (2024) (self-prompt of Honeymoon gone awry) I started this fic in 2009 and it stayed in my WIP folder until now! Yay for completing works started.
Summary: After a whirlwind year of dating, Harry and Draco are getting married. Never mind that their friends and every reader of the Daily Prophet disapprove of their being together. But ignoring all of them, they believe in each other. Draco, on his part, gleefully takes on planning their honeymoon. The week they were to spend in Venice was scheduled down to the hour. It was perfect, according to Draco. But we all know what happens to the best laid plans. Will their marriage survive the first day? Will friendships with others ever recover? Will there be a happy ending? Of course, there will be, but hold on for the ride.
Rating: Explicit Wordcount: 13.4K Warnings and Enticements: Established Relationship, Implied Sex while using Polyjuice Potion, Ronsy meddling.
Pansmione (Pansy/Hermione)
The Supergrass (Valentine's 2024) written for HP Sapphic's Valentines (prompt Auror/Criminal)
Summary: For the past year, Auror Hermione Granger has been coming monthly to Sister Hildegard's Wellness Emporium (attached to St Mungo's) for her Healer-ordered full-body massage because of work-induced stress and injuries. It was the perfect cover for meeting with the DMLE's main supergrass, Pansy Parkinson, who was now a trained masseuse thanks to the Ministry's Criminal Rehabilitation Act. An Act that Hermione Granger had pushed for through her connections at the Wizengamot. A contractual promise was made to Pansy that after one year, if her information led to the arrests and convictions of wanted Dark Wizards, her court-ordered probationary period of ten years for supporting Voldemort and those that served him, would be reduced to time already served. She would be free from all Ministry restrictions.
Today, Valentine's Day, is their last meeting.
Note: Supergrass is a British slang term for an informant who turns King's evidence, often in return for protection and immunity from prosecution.

(2023)
Drarry:
More Than A Legend (Christmas 2023) A Drarry Christmas Story
Summary: Harry volunteers to be Father Christmas at Hogwarts, without truly understanding what it entails.
The first 5 chapters of this fic were written in 2009. I finally completed the final 2 chapters in 2023. In addition, the amazing Ihopeyoustaysafefromharm Illustrated this fic (FTH). This fic is a lot of fun and filled with Father Christmas Cheer!
Rating: Mature Wordcount: 18K Warnings & Enticements: Romance, Explicit Language, Sexual Content, Christmas Legend, Mentions of: Animal Sacrifice, Slavery, and Prostitution. Liberties taken with historical accuracy of Christmas' origins.
Terminal Lucidity (Autumn 2023) written for hd_career-fair
Summary: Harry leaves his Auror position when his dreams drive him to a new profession. One that brings peace to the soul before Death arrives.
This is one of my shortest but probably on of most impactful fics. It was written for gnarf and deals with caring for someone at the end of their life (not Harry or Draco). Harry is the Master of Death.
Rating: Gen Wordcount: 3.2K Warnings: MCD. Enticements: Harry and Draco become a couple later in life. In this fic, they are probably in their early 50s and have merged their families. The whole family will miss their beloved Nana Narcissa.
(2022)
Drarry
The Roommate (Winter 2022) written for @hd-erised
PODFIC of the Roommate, (Autumn 2024) narrated by the fabulous Cailynwrites (AO3). Honestly this is a gem. 4 1/2 hours.
Summary: After one year in Azkaban and two years of home arrest, Draco is going off to college. Myrrdin College is Oxfordâs magical college, where one Harry Potter is currently attending. Both are going for their teaching certificates with Draco specialising in Potions and Harry in Defence Against the Dark Arts. The Headmistress has insisted all incoming professors must be degreed. However, the Board of Governors insist that Draco also must live in a Muggle house with limited allowance and take Muggle elective courses before he can become Hogwarts' new Potions Professor. Harry is coerced by others into helping Draco Malfoy survive in the Muggle world.
This is a soft fic. I wouldn't say fluffy as there are major subjects discussed and dealt with but angst between the two is not present. Harry's goal is to make Draco fall in love with the Muggle world...and he might have succeeded to well. So wrap yourself up in the warm blanket of The Roommate, oh and Scamp the cat, too!.
Rating: M Wordcount: 42K Warnings: This fic contains a brief fatphobic comment, implications of past food insecurity, and references to past corporal punishment of a child. In addition, mentions of Trichotillomania and lice are briefly discussed. Enticements: Scamp the cat, Draco learning about Muggle appliances, Blaise insisting Draco watch Legally Blonde.
Eight Days a Week (Summer 2022) written as a chapter fic...just because.
Summary: This is foremost a love story and second it's about those growing up years. Becoming adults with adult lives and adult decisions. Yes, Harry's a Trainee-Auror and Draco's a Healer-in-Training after the war. Yes, Harry eventually moves into 12 Grimmauld Place. And, yes, attraction happens between Harry and Draco and they fall in love, but then there's more. Draco is now free from Voldemort, free from fear of going to Azkaban, free from his Father's beliefs, and free to be the person, the witch, the woman she always felt she should be. And for Harry, itâs time to lose the shackles of his childhood and discover who he really is and whatâs truly important in life. This story begins one year or so after the Battle at Hogwarts and follows their relationship faithfully for two years. The final chapter will take place later in their lives.
This is a positive transition story without body dysphoria, but will contain moments where prejudice and slights arise. This story is categorized as M/F.
Rating: E Wordcount: ~120K Warnings: (Tranfem- Draco, Transition. See story for complete listing but no majors.) Enticements: Healthy relationship, gender euphoria, pansexual!Harry, Interesting OCs consisting of International Aurors.
25 Days of Draco and Harry (2022) (25 Holiday Scenes for Eight Days a Week (December 2022). sponsored by @slythindor100
Summary: The holiday scenes cover 2001-2023 followed by a future scene. The majority are under 500 words, but there are a few over 1K. The complete set is very family oriented as we learn more about the children's backgrounds and how Harry and Libby cope. Lots of fun!
Threesome: H/G/D
Every Cottage Has A Story (March 2022) written for Salt and Pepper Fest 2022
Summary: Harry and Ginny Potter live in a cottage in Hogsmeade. The previous owner was their eldest son James Sirius Potter, but he now lives in the home he grew up in, 12 Grimmauld Place. The switch happened years before, when his third child came along, and the cottage was too small for the family and Grimmauld Place was too large for his parents. How Draco Malfoy fit into his parents lives he wasnât quite sure. James did know that his brother and brother-in-law were the instigators of the situation, though. When they became friends in the House of Slytherin, eventually their parents did too. After the death of Astoria, Draco was known to bring a friend, always a different friend, to family occasions. Then after a decade or so he would just show up alone. When his parents moved into the Hogsmeade cottage, so did Draco Malfoy. Rating: Gen Audience Wordcount: 5.5K Warnings: Threesome F/M/M
(2021)
Home is Where the Cat is (Winter 2021) written for @hd-erised. Gift for @m0srael
Summary: Itâs summer and the war is over. Harry is busy in Auror training, attending Wizengamot trials for Slytherin classmates, and having tea with Narcissa Malfoy. Draco is at Hogwarts sharing deep dark secrets with classmates whilst helping with the reconstruction. Someone on the Wizengamot doesnât think the older Slytherin students should be allowed to return to Hogwarts, whilst Harry does. Repressed emotions get the better of him. After storming out of the Ministry swearing never to come back, but before he lifts his wand for the Knight Bus outside of the Leaky Cauldron on his quest for a normal life, thereâs a kiss in the Slytherin boysâ dormitories. Rating: Explicit Warnings: Nothing Major Word count: 41447
A/N: This was so much fun to write. It might be the softest of the longer fics I've written but I wouldn't say fluffy as serious concepts are dealt with. It does feature a purring Draco...literally.
This Ain't the Garden of Eden (Autumn 2021) written for@hd-fan-fair (career edition).
Summary: In 2020, Hit Wizard Harry is starting to enjoy his life. Heâs divorced, and no longer Head Auror. His biggest project these days is trying to remodel 12 Grimmauld Place for him and the kids. Draco Malfoy is recovering from his wifeâs death. But is happy with his Ministry position as Temporary Head of the Department of Intoxicating Substances, and with his son who he adores. This all changes quickly when Minister Shacklebolt decides not to run for another term. The assumption is that 'all is well' in the British Magical world, and that Hermione Granger-Weasley will easily be voted in as the next Minister for Magic. However, Draco knows better. He knows she has a strong competitor who is wooing those who live in Knockturn. And if he wins, the Ministry, and all that has been accomplished the previous twenty odd years, will be destroyed Rating: Explicit Warnings: Nothing Major. Some Violence and Minor character death (Hey Harry is a Hit Wizard). Oh and Draco has a thing for silk lingerie Word count: ~131,000
A/N: This is an action/political/adventure/romantic fic. It's epilogue compliant and takes place in 2020 and 2021. In other words...H/D are a bit older. Kingsley and Narcissa play special roles along with some worldbuilding for Knockturn and Grimmauld Place. Enjoy!!!
25 Days of Harry Draco 2021 (Additions to This Ain't the Garden of Eden) (Winter 2021) This was sponsored by@slythindor100 A/N: These 25 additions to This Ain't the Garden of Eden cover the missing days in the month of December along with one New Year's Day story. They are individually rated but the majority are G. As the Main Story was way too long for a fic fest (LOL), there were some plot points (most minor but a few major) that I didn't resolve at the end. So the 25 Days of H/D gave me the format to wrap things up. The additions range from 100 to 1500 words. So much fun!
Fics (2006-2013) (Summaries not included)
(chronological order of latest to earliest. Except Sequels are listed right after the originals.) Some fics I've added the original fest posting links.
