Summary
The flush on Seokjin's cheeks isn't just from anger. Except when he takes a step back, Namjoon takes a step forward, and they move like that until Seokjin's back hits the kitchen counter. Namjoon places a hand on either side of him on the counter, and leans in.
"Look at you," Namjoon whispers into his ear. His lips brush against his skin dangerously. "You say that you like men, but could you even tolerate being touched by one?"
Seokjin is shaking when he reaches out to grab Namjoon by the shirt. The trembling deer taking steps away from the safety of its mother. "I'm tolerating you just fine, am I not?"
Seokjin's straight. He's always been straight. It's just that recently, all he wants to do is kiss Kim Namjoon.

Summary
'I'm delighted to be the one to tell you, Mr Malfoy, that you are expecting.'
What the fuck? Was this some kind of joke, or perhaps a hideous dream?
***
Draco and Harry had both decided that hooking up was almost certainly a big mistake, but it's one they're not going to be able to forget in a hurry. Now they have to live with the consequences, which include some very unhappy teenagers, and plenty of opportunity for misunderstandings.
A getting together story about how one decision can change the path you are on, and make up for years of missed chances.

Summary
OK, so Draco's feeling so nervous about his upcoming wedding to his fiancée Astoria Greengrass that he could faint. That's one of the pitfalls of an arranged marriage, right? Just because he's run out of his past three weddings, doesn't mean this one won't go ahead. He just has to keep his eyes on the finishing line, and ignore the sudden reappearance of Harry Potter, who seems to be determined to turn his world upside down. Again.
Inspired by Runaway Bride (1999). Possible trigger warnings for: arranged marriage (not between Harry and Draco), and infidelity if you squint (not between Harry and Draco)

Summary
After a long, bloody war, Draco Malfoy just wants to do something good with his life for a change, and resolves to become a healer. But magical society refuses to make it easy for him, and an increasingly dramatic series of events—all of them instigated by Harry Potter—get him kicked out of med school, force him to live in exile, and threaten to destroy the new life he’s trying so desperately to build.
But Harry isn’t instigating anything—at least not on purpose. He’s just trying to work up the nerve to ask him out. His efforts don’t appear to be going great.

Summary
Harry longs to feel at home again, but he has been away for a long time, and he has a lot to contend with on his return to London: a magical mystery to investigate, a polite but prickly blond work partner with a disarming habit of blushing, a house with personality, the echoes of the war all around him, and a secret of his own.

Summary
Two decades after Hogwarts, Harry's toy shop is ready for the busiest season of the year. Bolstered with an ever-growing work list, plenty of tea, and a sentient puppet always looking for mischief, his life is full.
Still, at the end of the day, he’s lonely, and as the boy who lived his search looking for a match is disastrous.
When his friends register him for an anonymous dating service, he’s unconvinced. Then again, maybe not knowing each other’s faces right away might just give him everything he’s longing for.

If I win, lose, or draw, there’s a winner in us all by MystMelody

Summary
Sixteen years ago, Harry and his England team suffered World Cup heartbreak following an agonisingly close loss at the hands of a single, incorrect umpiring decision. Many years and two World Cup victories later, and Harry is (mostly) sure that he has moved on.
As Harry’s final tournament before retirement looms, he is confident that his team have what it takes to lift the trophy a third time - no matter what anyone else might say. Especially Malfoy, who has reinvented himself as a successful Quidditch reporter and seems determined to write as many awful things about the team as possible.
This is the story of England’s journey through the World Cup, and Malfoy’s insistence on turning up even when he’s definitely not wanted. Maybe not wanted. At least so Harry thinks.

Summary
A process is recursive when it defines or contains itself; e.g., the Fibonacci sequence, which determines the next number as the sum of the previous two.
But not all recursive processes are mathematical. Recursion can happen in a temporal context when, for instance, the powerful magical force that is true love drags you back in time so it can create itself, endangering the fate of the Wizarding World—not to mention the very fabric of space and time—along the way.

Summary
Not quite a decade after the war, Draco Malfoy was happy with his quiet little Muggle life in Oxford. He had a small group of friends from the university he’d attended, and colleagues from the law firm where he worked as a solicitor. He played folk music on his violin around the city. And he volunteered to provide legal services getting mostly idiot teenagers out of trouble with the law.
His life was full. He had no contact with the magical world, and all was the way he liked it. And the feeling of emptiness in his chest, the feeling some part of him was missing, was at least better than the alternative. Or at least it was until the last few months when he kept getting called down to the police station to get Harry Potter out of trouble. Indecent exposure and possession was one thing, but the latest charge was for murder.
OR
Harry and Draco find each other again after the war in Oxford, a completely non-magical city. Together they solve the mystery of the city which hates all wizards but them.

Summary
A few years after the war, Harry receives a ministry notice that Draco Malfoy’s house arrest will soon be lifted and that the wand he has kept may be sent to the ministry. He doesn’t think much of it when he sends the wand directly to Malfoy Manor with a note.
But one letter swiftly follows another and Malfoy sneaks his way into Harry's every day life without either of them minding.
Or; a very soft love story of how Harry and Draco find reasons to write letters to each other and Black heirlooms and family histories are uncovered while they figure out why that is. Lunch dates, careful friendship, confusing feelings and Draco's art included.

Summary
Apparently, in the wizarding world, having a predestined soulmate is completely normal.
Honestly, Harry really shouldn’t be surprised anymore; after all, he’s been living almost nine years in the world of witches and wizards, having come across his fair share of crazy both during his years at Hogwarts and afterwards in his job as an Auror. And so, when his twentieth birthday arrives and a single letter appears on his right wrist, it honestly shouldn’t affect him so.
Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy is busy getting his life back on track. With the war over, the Dark Lord defeated, his father incarcerated in Azkaban for life, and his new status as an Auror, Draco should for once have no difficulty enjoying his life. Except, there’s the minor issue of Harry Potter apparently being his soulmate to consider.
When someone starts trying to murder Harry, Draco is assigned as his protection. And although neither of the two have any idea what awaits them on the path ahead, one thing’s for certain: This will either end in bloodshed, or something far, far worse.
But, yeah, no need to panic.
