Bookmarker's Notes
I have been a single-fandom, single-pairing reader for... about twenty years, now, during which I have read literally tens of millions of fanfic. Sure, I've had occasional flirts with other things besides Drarry, but nothing has been able to capture my attention for long the way Drarry has. This fic, though, this fic has broken my streak. After all this time, after all this reading, this fic has made me change my mind. A fic for a fandom I've never seen, in a universe I've never been particularly interested in. Yet, I'm now desperate for more like this. I want to see Din and Luke grow together in so many ways, just as you have had them grow together here.
Bravissimo.

Summary
Draco Malfoy might not be a killer, but it turns out he's an effective painkiller. If stopping pain was all Draco's touch did, things might not be so complicated, but either way Harry can't afford to be choosy.

Ten years was worth the wait for Faith Wood's next fic. Seamlessly pulling together threads of different stories I've read before, Faith Wood masterfully weaved them together to create a story that feels entirely new. It shouldn't be this way -- it should feel like a warm, familiar trope, but it doesn't. "Beholden" was worth every minute of waiting. I can only hope it won't be another decade until we see their next work -- but if it is, I'll be first in line to read the next story regardless.

Summary
An anonymous benefactor makes a generous donation to Harry Potter's School for Squibs in exchange for a weekly letter from the Boy Who Lived.
What begins as a chore soon becomes the only outlet Harry has to talk about the war, love, life, hope, redemption, his renewed obsession with a certain blonde nemesis and how he really, honestly, believes that this will be the year Puddlemere United reclaim the Quidditch League Cup.

This fic had me literally crying with laughter at various points, despite being entirely epistolary in nature. "Dear Enemy" has vivid characters who are so purely the essence of themselves, I can't help but rec this fic for anyone who needs a fluffy, delightful story.

This fic is an utter delight in the best ways that fluff can be. With a mood-matching purple bus, the cutest of 'head birds', and the steady love of friends, Headlights in the Snow is a perfect homage to the weird and wonderful ways that people can make themselves a home.

Summary
Narcissa Malfoy is missing. Harry has no idea why the Unspeakables want him tagging along on the investigation, but he's not complaining. His job has never been this interesting.
His job has never before involved observing a fit, long-haired Draco Malfoy around the clock, or noticing how good he smells, or burning his breakfasts. They're not paying him to ask questions, or notice when something is terribly wrong, or take matters into his own hands.
Unfortunately, these are the things Harry Potter does best.

Bookmarker's Notes
In some ways, I feel like this fic is a mirror of another incredible work, eleventy7's "Running on Air". There are parallels in the plot -- both are missing persons stories -- but for me, their similarity is more in the way that they feel the same, and in the ways in which they are opposites. One is about finding your way into the world, the other about finding your way home. One is about finding Draco, one is about finding what Draco has lost. Both are about obsession, both are about love. And they both have this almost otherworldly feel to them, as if plucked directly from the æther, exposing the strands that bind the world together.
