    Summary

    Flying out at 7 am for a last minute work trip was already bad.

    Flying out of Dulles was worse.

    But to top it all off, Nesta's morning is entirely upended when the world's most obnoxious (read: gorgeous) pilot spills boiling hot coffee all over in what had to be the worst luck of all time.

    Nesta was determined to forget it ever happened, to get through her week and back to her apartment where she could continue to hide away forever. But fate has other plans.

    A meet-cute/hate featuring Pilot!Cassian and Diplomat!Nesta for Cassian Appreciation Week 2024 Day 1: Flying

    Short & sweet - a lovely little Nessian vignette.

    Summary

    (rewrite.)

    As the only female High Elf of your family, you are sent on a diplomatic mission into the Underdark. But diplomacy becomes a dark and twisted maze as you are forced into the toxic Drow matriarchy, in which men are only slaves, and the only laws to be followed are the whims of the Dark Queen.

    Or, you participate in a horribly twisted culture in order to free sex slaves. And maybe marry one or a few of them.

    I started this expecting it to be a lot more titillating and salacious, but got emotionally invested instead. (Should've paid attention to the whump tag!) I love this author's exploration of a violent matriarchal drow society and what that might look like - made me think of Ust Natha from Baldur's Gate: Shadow of Amn in such a good way.

    I think I commented on every chapter because every chapter was just so good. Would do unhinged, feral things to get a book-long, full-length Nessian Modern/Mafia AU fic from this author. 🙏

    God-tier writing. Had me at P. G. Wodehouse, Saki, and Jane Austen and did NOT disappoint. Just an incredible work, and I love how the author incorporated fan art. Just love upon love and I love that too. I reread this whenever I need to remind myself what a slow burn looks like. (Answer: slow as hell! But worth the wait.)

    Summary

    “In my humble opinion there’s only three things that men should be and that is bloody, slutty, and pathetic.” And, on a good day, Draco Malfoy can be all three.

    When war heroine Hermione Granger and Azkaban-tattooed war criminal Draco Malfoy are forced to wed as part of Shacklebolt’s controversial Reconciliation Act, they openly fight the match and each other—their public brawls breathlessly reported by the press.

    Secretly, a deeply traumatized Draco delights in Hermione’s attention and pines for a real marriage with her—even as her forced proximity to the Black family magic irritates the cursed scar Bellatrix left on her arm, reminding her why she can never truly trust or forgive him. Then Hermione discovers that Draco’s blood will soothe the scar . . . and Draco is willing to trade his blood for her body.

    (With post-war blood purity politics, black market potioneers, Pansy Parkinson’s career advice, the Malfoys blackmailing Hermione’s Wizengamot opposition, BDE Neville Longbottom hunting Death Eaters, a slutty Theo Nott serving as Draco’s right-hand man, and Crookshanks loose in Malfoy Manor.)
