Headcanon Premise: Harry and Draco were always in love or at least attracted to each other, even during (and partly because) of Draco's bullying. This story is 99% canon-compliant and fits in as supplemental material for the original books. Toxic love story with a happy ending. Hogwarts Years 1 - 8 ⚠️Hogwarts Era smut⚠️ [Available also on AO3 and FF] WIP Status: Letters and Foreword were revised; Year 8 is being prepared. This is a Harry/Draco romance set in the canon HP universe, covering all seven years of schooling as a series of Memory Vials. This fic is presented more like Deleted Scenes than a Rewrite, following the plot of their romance instead of Harry's quest to defeat Voldemort. Everyone is mostly in character (hopefully), and Draco is the troubled little shit you know and love but with more dimension added to his character. A movie depiction might be preferred in my version, but it's recommended you read along with the original books to avoid loss of context, unless you read them already, which should be enough. This fic is roughly 99% canon compliant, while allowing for artistic license and changes here and there, also scrapping the original epilogue. Content Warning: language, smut, mature themes and situations, alcohol/substance use, homophobic bullying and harassment, conversion therapy, morally ambiguous situations, tactical omniscient head-hopping, and pretentious poetry. I'm American, so expect accidental Americanisms and ignorant mistakes, but I did my best to use some British-English.
