1. all i want for Christmas is Potter by @welpslytherin [T, 12k]
A kiss under the mistletoe with Harry Potter. Draco Malfoy thinks that’s not too much to ask for at all.
2. all mistletoe is parasitic by iamthatveryvvitch [T, 4k]
Christmas, Malfoy Manor. Draco discovers Harry might not be as dedicated to reforming the Malfoys as once thought.
3. Gifts for Stylish Gits and Reckless Heroes by MiriMora [E, 13k]
It’s five years after the Battle of Hogwarts, and Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter have been pining after each other for years while both trying to maintain the fiction among their friends that they are merely cordial at best. Hermione Granger-Weasley has had enough of their nonsense and hatches a plan to rig their yearly Secret Santa gift exchange so these two idiots have no choice but to confront their feelings head-on.
4. Growing to Love You by LavenderPhantomCat [T, 10k]
Harry Potter and his Auror partner, Ron Weasley are in charge of Theresa Bushwick’s protection as an investigation on a murderer is underway. When Theresa gets hurt, the most skilled healer in St. Mungo’s is called to be in charge of her care. This healer happens to be Draco Malfoy, but under a new surname.
5. Harry Potter and the Feelings He Tried (and failed) to Pretend Didn’t Exist by A_papworth [?, 7k]
6. Overly Thoughtful Gryffindor Gifts by @countingcr0ws [M, 21k]
Returning to Hogwarts for eighth year is great, but it could definitely be better. Everyone is sick of listening to him talk about Malfoy, but Harry doesn’t know how to talk to Malfoy. Cue a gift exchange, alcohol fuelled parties and a looming deadline. Will our heroes ever get together?
7. Snow and Other Gentle Things by RamaThorn [T, 5k]
It is Christmas eve at Hogwarts, Harry likes flying and Draco likes snow. Who knew these things can coexist so nicely.
8. Snow and Other Magic by @triggerlil [M, 8k]
Harry’s first Christmas Eve Ball at Malfoy Manor; features awkward tea, tense gift exchanges, magical destiny, illustrious artifacts, and impeccable outfits, as everything spirals towards… something.
9. Two Idiots and a Mistletoe by iRavenish [M, 3k]
How mistletoe was essential in pulling their heads out of their asses.

Everybody go praise this absolute sweetheart for making such gorgeous art! Look at it! Isn’t it beautiful? 🥰

@mirimora wrote a lovely poem called “What Feeds Us” based on this art I shared with her. Seeing she wrote it made me want to share it publicly. :D
I wasn’t sure what to call it, but I felt like Midsummer Amethyst was fitting.
Oh, Blue! I'm screaming! Omg bb, I'm so proud of you! This is beautiful, and everyone should read it! 💛💛💛
Place of Us
Your scars lay me to
waste (mine don’t compare).
A lonely place where trees stop growing,
where flower petals are rubbed between fingertips and water ripples,
time spins in lazy circles.
This — this is where we meet.
Rain in sheets across the lake
(a place of unspoken trepidations),
where nothing can be added,
nothing to be withdrawn.
Raindrops will come as they please — they don’t take requests.
So you and me? We watch.

Absolutely gorgeous! I continue to be stunned by the things you come up with, Blue!
Library of Flowers
A castle somewhere
— in my mind
keeps a library tucked away,
with heavy doors and worn books
A maze of shelves.
There are staircases only special people see
Quartz steps and cherry rails
steel holds it all together.
(I wouldn’t know, I’ve never seen it).
You breathe these promises,
you speak of beautiful things
And I believe you,
for you are a special person.

I Wrote a Poetry Book 🦷
Hello, friends! I haven’t posted anything on here for a while, apart from reblogging gif sets when I get into a new fandom lol, but I wrote a poetry book, and I want to share more information about it!! I would really appreciate anyone skimming over this and/or reblogging. ❤️
A few months ago, I finished my first poetry manuscript, Is It Bad if My Gums Bleed When I Floss? If you’re a fan of the macabre, poems about trauma and self-acceptance, or you happen to love teeth like I do, this book might be for you!
Is it Bad if My Gums Bleed When I Floss? is a collection of poems following Netty, a dental student, from childhood to adulthood and the relationships she forms throughout, including a sexually abusive relationship with her professor. When she emerges on the other side, it’s with heavy trauma and a newfound desire to fully accept her own sexuality, as well as heal her fractured relationship with herself. It’s a lot of body horror—it is pulling teeth and probing gum pockets and tasting blood on someone else’s lips. It’s literally teeth poetry. It’s not pretty, but I think that’s the beauty of it.
Because I know it’s easy to see this and not really know what the hell “teeth poetry” means or what my writing is actually like, here’s an example—this is a concrete poem I want on the back cover of the book, which touches on a lot of the themes and images in the collection (please excuse the poor quality; I don’t know how to fix that lol):

I want her, I want her
under my pillow are my baby
teeth soaking up saliva
in his mouth
I taste my blood
under my fingernails
press into her skin
is so pretty
little lips saying
“It’s Netty,” and I—
I’m really proud of this manuscript; completing it was like putting to rest years of hatred and shame that were festering within me. But I can’t say any of this without giving a BIG thank you to @tigerlilycorinne and @jovialobservationanchor for supporting me while writing this. If it weren’t for them reading it, leaving feedback and suggestions, and generally just being the best cheerleaders in the world, I probably would’ve just let it sit in my Google Drive.
One last note: I have an author Instagram and a Ko-fi if you want to follow or support me elsewhere! I’ll keep you guys updated on any news I hear from the indie publishers I’ve sent this manuscript to, as well as new things I’m writing. (Between you and me, I have another book in the works…!)
Again, I would very much appreciate if anybody reblogs this! Tag a poetry lover, the dental hygienist you follow, a Dead Dove fan, or the casual tooth enjoyer in your life. I want my poetry to find the audience I’m certain is out there. If you know me, you know I’m not always confident in my writing, but I think this is it. 🦷❤️
