And some recs from hprarefest, which is posting right now! God, I'm so behind with my recs. I have stuff from MONTHS ago that I meant to rec and yet – lamo is me. But I'm trying to do better, so here I offer some Rare Pair goodies.

I think I'm going to divide my Rectober posts by pairings (well I'm gonna try because I do like multi-ship reccing ^^), and for this I spent all of yesterday tagging my recs by pairings. I feel so accomplished. (Man, I'm lame) I'm starting with Draco/Neville. :)

( 3 Draco/Neville Fics )

Enjoy! And on that note, anyone has any art of this pairing that can recommend? :)

Today hd_fan_fair's Pottermore Fair started posting. I'm so excited I've been refreshing my flist all morning like a nerd. And finally it's here! \o/

Also today is hd_erised's Check in!. Did you check in yet? Are you excited? Only 5 weeks till due date!

And and and! Prompting is Open at hd_fluff's Fluffy Halloween Fest!

( So cute! )

Yeah, I'm wearing my pimp sombrero. ^^

Well, the drabbles for the second week of slythindor100's H/D LDWS are up and I'm in the bunch. OMG!!! How did that happen? :D This is one more week than I thought I was going to last, you guys! I'm dead chuffed to be there! And surprised. lol

Also, this is the second week birdsofshore has failed to spot me, which I find highly amusing, but in all fairness, how is she to know? Unless I throw a bunch of emoticons :D:D:D and a few ^^s in my drabbles, there's no way to know, really. STILL, funny. :D

The drabbles are here, in case you want to read them and vote. (Come on!) Voting ends tomorrow at 6pm CST. Warn you though, it's going to be hard because, damn, you people are so talented! <3

But so many exciting things have been happening. Lots of claiming open, just check this out:

But there's so much stuff going on. Jesus!

bottom_draco announced the Transformations Fest and timeline. So excited you guys. I've missed this fest like crazy. And hd_cliche also announced the fest and timeline, and what's awesome is that you can totally prompt your favourite cliché, or authors and artist can have their pick from their awesome clichés list. :D

Prompting is also open at snaco_soiree. I need to head there soon, because, you know, No one does it like a Slytherin! <---- their motto. ^^

hd_smoochfest is posting daily. \o/

The party NEVER ENDS at dracomalfoy of course. <3

And last but not least harrydracompreg finished posting and LORD there's amazing stuff going on over there. Please take a moment to go through the fest and leave comments and love to authors and artists. It's been truly amazing.

That's right, the party just started!!


art by catplusfox, banner by capitu

Head over there and leave all the prompts! It's going to be FUN! :D

...And by ~Wicked~ I mean Fun and Awesome. :D


art by tatarnikova, banner by capitu

I mean, come on, doesn't he look fucking sexy inviting?

Head over to dracomalfoy and join or watch the community!

Trust me, you're not going to regret it. I swear! ;)

*jumps* I can't wait to find out what's going to happen over there. :D I'm certain those mods are excited. In fact, they're probably have been planning and talking about it for weeks and weeks, and can't wait to start all the fun. LOL

Aren't you excited?? Please join in! <333

I was going to make the "Ask me anything" meme that is going around, but after asking (and reading answers) I'm a bit scared. :D You guys are filthy! ILYSM. <3

Reveals are up at dracotops_harry, and, man, it was so much fun guessing with snowgall. :D

It got me thinking though.

I love commenting, I do. And it's just that, whether is a friend's fic, or someone I don't know very well, or someone I've never talked to before, when that author answers me back and say things like, 'This comment made my day!' or 'I'm so happy you like it,' or 'that's exactly what I was trying to say', for that brief moment you've made a connexion with that person, you know?

You made that person feel good, made them smile, and that's powerful, man. And from then on, when I see them again – another fic or art, another fest – I imagine they see my username and I see theirs, and we smile or nod in a, 'hey, I remember you,' kind of way, even if it was a short interaction, we're not strangers any more, because for a moment, they gave me something, a story, an art, a moment in a world they created, and because of my comment, I meant something to them, too. It's wonderful. Comments are ♥

Yeah, okay, I'll shut up. ^^

But, hey, recs! :D

The hp_darkarts's Horror fest Finished posting, and there has been lovely stuff posted there. And by "lovely" I mean totally creepy and awesome. :D

Here are some of my favourites. Scary and awesome stuff ahead – mind the warnings in each post:

( Gen, slash and het and fanart. :D )

And because you might need cheerful stuff, a few from hds_beltane, which is still posting! :D

( H/D/S )

Now I'm off to keep asking. Happy weekend, I hope! ♥

Busy weekend, yeah? hd_remix finished posting, the Guessing Polls are up. Polls are torturously fun, aren't they? XD

And hd_hurtfest started posting yesterday. You'll probably need something to cheer you up after, so, hey, recs!

Six quick reads to brighten your day (all under 5K so really! :D ) from hp_getlucky, it's tons of fun over there. ^^

3 Harry/Draco, 1 James/Scorpius, 1 Al/Scorpius/James and 1 Hermione/Neville with Harry/Ron as a bonus!

( Read Me! )

And in case you haven't seen these, citrus_lime has made me art! :DDD

( Click Me! )

See? Best way to start your week. :)

Did you see? harrybang is here! Oh my god!! Of course you see, HarryBang exploded on Saturday all over the place!

So much fun, so much fic, so much art!! *grabby hands* I want to make my way through every single one of the stories, all of them look so good.

Actually, that'll be brilliant because I'm travelling next week and perfect timing so I go with plenty of HP love to keep me ~busy. Ah, picture that, the beach, and me with my ipad reading HP fic. *lol* Heaven. :D

Oh yeah, I'm going on vacations next week. ^^ I'm leaving on the 12th (My birthday!!!! Actually, I have to be at the airport on the 11th at 11pm) and coming back 11 days after (23rd). To the Bahamas! I'm so excited, but I admit, I'm going to miss celebrating my birthday with you guys so much. *clings so hard* :(

Though I just realised I could bang Harry for my birthday. I'll def take all the bangs with me. ^^

And that's not all! torino10154's Porn Sunday happened yesterday. I know she'll post a master list later today, but if you check that entry, people started linking their Porny bits there. ^^

And if you don't know where to start come HERE And start with that GORGEOUS James/Scorpius fic. There's Size kink (SIZE KINK!!!!), blowjobs, voyeurism implied and Teddy/Al on the side. It's so, so hot. I'm not kidding. Hung!James! *pants and whimpers* Seriously, you have to check that out.

And then tomorrow hp_kinkfest starts posting! :D Are you ready for more kink? \o/

February rocks! And I need to calm the heck down, but I'm just so excited. ^^

Claiming is open at the harrydracompreg fest! This is the only H/D Mpreg Fest. That's it. And there are amazing prompts or you can write/draw your own idea. And it's only 1,000 words minimum or the equivalent in art. And you have until the end of April to submit. And it's SUPER FUN. Come on!!!!

List of Prompts | Fest Rules & FAQ | Claiming Post



Please don't make me beg. Even more (I will!). Come on! ♥ ♥ ♥

Eta: Prompting is Open at the harrydracompreg!!! :D:D:D

I'm so excited I'm all jumpy. Look!

I love mpreg, I hope to see more people prompting and claiming. You don't have to intend to claim to leave a prompt, nor you have to prompt in order to claim. And it's a 1,000 word minimum! Come on! You have until April 30 to submit. *nudges*

This fest is almost the only fest in which Mpreg Fics and Art are produced. There's only a handful of both Mpreg fic and art done in all other fests combined, so it's kind of a big deal for people who love the genre. (It is a genre, right? Like Flangst? ^^)

So yes, it would be awesome to see everybody there. Try something new! I know several of you are doing the Snowflake challenge, and this is the new thing you could try! And even if you're not doing the challenge, I challenge you do to Mpreg. :D

OH! One of my prompts was claimed for the do_me_veela fest! Same situation as Mpreg with Veela, really, so it's brilliant to know this. And Claiming is still Open!

Also, Prompting is Open at hp_getlucky! And people have been leaving some crazy prompts. *coughs* Just saying. ^^

Ah, Fest season is here again. :)

Which reminds me, with hd_owlpost Winter Fest Reveals -- and so many surprises in this reveals! I actually flailed at people about their stories before reveals, again. God -- every single Master List from last year's fests has been added to the list (please let me know if I missed any!). Check it out: 2014 Master Lists Completed List.

I'll do that this year, too, starting with the upcoming dates. It was so much fun to check all those fests. :D

There's so much wonderful things happening in fandom right now I can barely deal.

Seriously. So many recs are coming! But for now reminders:

hd_fanart fest is posting.
serpentinelion"s Glomp Fest is posting.
hp_crossgenfest is posting.
interhouse_fest is posting.
hp_goldenage is open for prompting.
hprare_cliche is also open for prompting! <3
hd_hurtfest is open for prompting, too. :D

And almost daily activities at hp_reunion. I'm dying with the stuff posted at harryronreunion. So much wonderful stuff.

What else? What am I missing? Don't wanna miss anything! ^^

*bounces all over flist*

I'm slowly catching up. Long weekend here. But omg.

I figured for a change, I could rec you some of my favourite HP communities. I meant to do a small list with a few, but once I started a couldn't stop, and it turned into a HUGE list, and I'm probably forgetting a bunch of communities I also wanted to mention, but it's start.

( Communities I love, and you love too! )

Yes, well. As I said, I started doing this post, I thought I was going to mention just a few communities I love, but the more I wrote the more I realised there's no way to end. Still, I hope you find this useful! ♥

Wow, that took longer than you imagine. :D

It's started! Sign ups for hd_owlpost are open!

Looking for a low-key and fun H/D winter fest?
Did not make it into hd_erised?
Not a writer and not an artist but still would love to give and receive holiday gifts?

Should I do it? Oh god, should I? SHOULD I? I think I'm gonna. *lol* Yeah, I'm all...

I was thinking I needed a pimp hat icon, but then awesome captainraychill made this Pinata Spank for birdsofshore's Anywhere but the Bed, now I have Harry in a sombrero about to kiss Draco's bum. It can't get better than that. :D:D:D

That Comment Fest was such a blast, if you haven't checked it out, here's your chance. The Master List is up, and you can browse through all the awesome submissions. There are icons for everybody! <3

And hd_smoochfest posted the Reveals! I'm always so excited with reveals. I had a few rights, others, damnit, I should have known!

Also, hd_tropes starts posting today. I've been refreshing my flist like a nerd all morning. Lol I know it's going to post just as I go for lunch. I just know it. ^^ ETA. So! It's posting already. See, this is why you refresh and scroll down, so you don't look like a fool, like me. :P BUT YAY! (About the posting, not the fool thing...^^)

Anyway. Now, well, it's July, surely you're all thinking about December already, yes?

So I'll just leave this little something here:

And lastly, THE WORLD CUP!!!!! So happy Germany won. \o/\o/\o/ I was bouncing all through the game (ate too much chocolate) and did a countdown to the end after the goal. Exciting! I'm going to miss the games and everything so bad. What a month, ups and downs, but ended with a great note. Go Germany! :D

Comment Fest JOY!
Click, come and join!

This is going to be SO MUCH FUN. :D

I know, I know, you're waiting for the game to start. OMG Brazil vs. Germany and I think I'm going to die. I wanted this game to be the final! But here it is. And I ACHE.

SO! In the meantime, we can all get really naughty and filthy with an outdoor sexy, semi public sex comment fest, right? RIGHT? \o/

I'm excited, as excited as I am about harrybang and its new look. Really, the art made by 8c is gorgeous, and writcraft and mab are an absolute darling, it was a joy to be part of the fest's New Face.

And because I love my Hufflepuff House:


Art by 8c banner by capitu

The hd_fanart fest opened prompting today! I'm so excited about this. It's my first time prompting! Last year I prompted by proxy so I hope I'm not messing it up now that I'm doing it myself. :D

And today hp_crossgenfest open prompting too! Alskdjflskdjf!!!!! I've been waiting for this for months! I LOVE Cross Gen. :D *refresh for prompting post*

ETA: Okay, Cross Gen is officially open for prompting!

ETA: And! hp_creatures is also open for prompting!!!

Oh God, what a day! :D

( Pretty Banners Are Pretty! )

Are you ready? Are you prompting? Are you excited? Do you think I need a Valium? ^^

The Glomp Fest is one of the most amazing fests there are! It's the fest in which writers and artists come together and show their love for people who are part of fandom but don't write or draw, people who comment, who rec, who squee, even the shy and quiet ones can be glomped. It's brilliant!

If you're not sure if you're eligible for a Glomp come here, check it out and be glomped!

Sign Ups are open until May 31st! Go, go, go! :D

Yesterday my_drarry_recs was two years old.

I can't believe it, it seems like yesterday; so many stories, so much fun, so many amazing friends made.

And I'm going to get mushy now, and really, you shouldn't be subjected to that without the chance to skip it.



When I started the rec archive two years ago, all I wanted was to share the stories I enjoyed, and do so in a way that was easy to find other stories, older recs, some specific tropes/genres, because I've followed archives in the past that are no longer updated and I remember how much I loved them, how many stories I discovered through them. I hoped that someone, one day, would find the rec archive useful, would find it easy to navigate and most of all would find stories to love.

I never thought it would come true. I mean, I hoped, I hoped people would find it useful and enjoy it. That's the only purpose of a rec, to share a story with someone else.

And wow, my_drarry_recs is two years old. (can't quite wrap my mind around that one.)

Maintaining the archive takes some time, takes a bit of organisation and dedication. Once in a while I get a message or an email from someone telling me how much they enjoy the archive. People has been incredibly kind to me in telling me good things about it and I'm floored, because even though it was something like a dream of mine that it would happen, I guess I never thought it would, you know? I thought people would enjoy the recs, but I never imagined they would embrace me and made me feel part of something. And I'm incredibly grateful and humbled that you have. Every single comment and message I get, it goes straight to my heart and stays there forever.

And it all happened because of you, because you writers keep sharing these amazing stories with us, you give your time, your effort, your talent to share something with us, and today, as every day, I thank you for that.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you for keeping the magic alive. <3


♥

It runs from May 3rd to May 11th. And it's going to be awesome! Also, Hufflepuff RULES. :D

Perfect chance to catch up on all the fests. There are dracotops_harry, hds_beltane, hp_darkarts's Horror Fest, hp_may_madness, snape_potter, femmefest, hp_beholder. And starting to post next week hp_kinkfest & charlieficathon!
