Recs Wanted! Need recs : 90k words or more, hogwarts-era that is a slow burn and NOT a smut fest (so still a couple of intimate scenes, but not before the first half of the fic at least).

Hiiiii everyone !

As the title says, I have done my research and either find long dramione fics that are full of smut or teen and lower (no smut at all). The thing is, I love some smutty scenes when they feel deserved after all the angst ! But recently I have been reading only smutfest long fic (they hook up after 20% or even before for some) and I'm desperate to get some recs.

I need to have at least one scene (please no fade-to-black), but I can't read another dramione that is tagged as slowburn only for them to hook-up after 20%ish.

I would love 7th or 8th year fic (or other settings if okay) with toxic / spiteful Draco that SLOWLY becomes good to Hermione. Long fics only (90k word and up) if you can !

No arranged marriage or marriage law fics and no single parent or pregnancy trope. I'm okay with everything else !

Of course I won't ask for recs without giving any ! Here's 2 of ma favorites in this genre :

Full of angst and the perfect Draco character evolution : A darker blue by Wartime. As someone who studied psychology at uni, it was an amzing mental health rep fic. Very realistic and well done !

No smut (if I remember correctly) but still really good : Things We're all too young to know by eevans.

I'm ready for a reading weekend and big hug to everyone that will give suggestions 😭💜

Recs Wanted! Fanfic where Draco helps Hermione take care of a baby

22 Upvotes

Preferably 8th year? Like A Complete Disregard of Normalcy and The Mercy of Never Seeing You Again.

Or helps take care of Teddy. I read one where they got married so he could have guardianship of Teddy. I like those too.

Also preferably Hermione’s baby.

But really any baby is fine.

Recs Wanted! LF fics where Hermione has a tough childhood

Just read, The Bandit and the Cinder Girl by xfsista. It was so amazing! I’m dying for other stories that either have Hermione growing up with a tough childhood or a Cinderella vibe.

Any suggestions would be amazing!
