H/D hug challenge!!

[reenka]

You know what seems like a great idea right now??

A challenge (post-HBP-- preslash welcome) for short stories, something like....


    "15 Ways for Harry Potter to hug Draco Malfoy and live to tell about it"

:D :D :D :D
    The 2 criteria would be: no shmoop or sap!! I mean this to be touching or funny or a bit sad, but not... y'know, fluffy, 'cause that'd mean it'd be stupid & OOC. Also-- no pre-established relationship fics, man-- that's the whole point!
    Deadline: something like.... August 30, that's literally 4 weeks from now >:D
    And! Artists also welcome! >:D!

I don't think I could easily come up with more than one. I mean, it is seriously a lot harder to get them to hug than to shag, I think, so I'm all excited :D


I mean, c'mon!!

There's been all sorts of rough sex and licking and fighting and so on in fic, but how often have they hugged???


...Oh, I'm a genius. And yeah, I'll prolly write one anyway ;)

So tell me if you're interested and like, uh... well, come back & comment if you write it, so I'll... make a website? Or a community? Or just link to them :D

You should read His Belongings (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/999584/1/) then, it's sort of a H/R+Draco-type thing, and it's probably the most emotional of all Penelope's fics for me <3 You know, this reminds me how most people who post rec lists these days don't have much in common with mine-- at least partly 'cause the intellislashers are kinda dead and forgotten, y'know, and no one cares about the old crackfic like IP and Protective Bonds and even Origins.... man. I'm such a fannish hag by now :))

I know what you mean about the dreamworld feeling-- that sort of both enchanted & distracted/distanced me from the emotional vitality of it. I hated Harry mostly for the cheating, which... well, in my head Harry would -never- do, and also I just hated it on him 'cause he -loved- Draco, so it was so fucked up and wrong and. Nngh. But yeah, I liked him better in Orpheus in Motion, though... the moping... ahhh, the moping... at least in OoTP there was capslock :> :>

Yeah, I can't really picture you bitter~:) Not that you're sweet or cloying like um... some fandom people... um :)) More sweet like dew on flowers. I know that sounds really hokey & cheesy & stuff, but it's hard to describe these things ^^;;

IT IS SO SCARY & SAD & YET AWESOME THAT YOU FORESAW HBP DRACO ALL ALONG, KINDA AHAHAHZLKJfalkdjfa;sflkja
