Okay, so I am a terrible friend. It has been more than a week since
birdsofshore posted this clever and touching fic as a gift for me. And somehow I am only reccing it now. LJ being a crappy old pain in the bum the last few days hasn't helped, but mostly it's been my own busy life getting in the way.
First of all, I am all a-squirm at being thanked for anything, as she helps me all the time with my fics, typo-squishing and pointing out all the plot holes and canon words I've forgotten to capitalise. And pre-reading and betaing her fics is always a joy, as you might guess. Largely our interactions are based on our mutual love of cock jokes. :D
Title: Riches Ready to Drop Upon Me
Summary: During the nights that follow his trial, Draco dreams as never before.
Rating: PG-13

Why you should all click on the link and not be put off by the effing varnishing goat, but keep refreshing until you can read the story (if you haven't already):
Birds has written something quite special, in my opinion. It is based on a slightly tongue-in-cheek premise, but is also a love letter to H/D fan fiction. I absolutely adored it. I counted references to at least ten fics I could name (three of them mine!), but recognised more. The story was filled with such warmth for the worlds and characters we all share. And the ending! It gave me the most wonderful of Drarry feels, the kind which reminds me why I love this fandom and pairing so much. ♥ ♥ ♥
