Apple Ling's List: Muggle Living

*Cuteness!! Like WHOA!! ♥♥♥♥♥
Non-magical AU. Super assistant/secretary!Draco. Cute Draco + Weasley bromance/friendship/hilarious boss+assistant (PR agency run by Augusta Longbottom) relationship. Draco's impeccable fashion taste (and the way he chooses his Weasley boss' clothes for him, because Weasley does not have a single fashion conscious bone in his body. That, and he kept staining his clothes with food stuff) Cute Draco + Pansy friendship (and gossip sessions) and the League of Snarky Secretaries. Cute toddler Teddy and big bro!Draco relationship. Andromeda dotes on Draco. Harry's love of all things coffee. Mean!Harry at first (but he has a very good reason for his asshole-ish behaviour, you'll see).

Summary: Draco is Weasley’s assistant. Except for the week he’s not. Whose brilliant idea was that again? Featuring offices in Edinburgh, an epic Measley Bromance (that no one will admit exists), several unrequited crushes, fantastical revenge scenarios, coffee snobbery, the dreaded – yet adorable – toddler terror, promises of organ swapping, a play about Scottish history (no one cares), sequins, and the League of Snarky Secretaries!

*Non-magic AU. Prostitute!Draco, evil!Lucius, smitten!rich!Harry. Attempted non-con (Draco/OMC) and injuries from that attack.

Summary: When Lucius found out that his son was gay, he sold him to Voldemort and cut off the family fortune. Harry finds him on the streets seven months after Draco is able to break free. Can he save the blond dragon?

*(Muggle)Banker!Harry who is very good at his job (and has pretty much left the wizarding world behind. His only connection to his wizard past is (Manly epitome of Hotness!)Ron and Hedwig. Draco is a wandmaker (he took over Ollivander's shop and he puts gemstones and other shiny minerals into his wands) and he also writes a column in The Daily Prophet.
Basically Harry broke his wand and is forced to go back to the wizarding world he left behind to get his wand fixed. Wandmaker!Draco thinks he can help Harry.
Featuring a nice Aunt Petunia, smart!professional!confident!Harry, casual!easy-going!quirky!Draco, Draco being shorter than Harry (cute!), minor character death (not Harry or Draco), Harry having problems controlling his magic (that, and he gets magic-sick - a bit like motion sickness, only Harry feels ill in magical environments), Greg Goyle (Draco's best friend) owns a restaurant, H/D working together to create a compatible wand for Harry, looking and trying out gemstone compatibility, cute H/D flirty moments #Switching!fic definitely but it's only 1 bottom!Harry scene and 1 bottom!Draco scene.

Summary: Harry wasn't at school any more, nor was he fifteen. He was a successful merchant banker with a flat to die for and an owl who loved him. And he wasn't going to get into a pissing match with a stick-fiddler who'd always driven him mental.

*Absolutely beautiful! ♥♥♥♥♥
Auror!Harry who is also a dog animagus nicknamed Fluffy :p Blind!Draco (who is also a writer - He writes gay romance novels) and Harry is his bodyguard.
Basically Draco finds himself blind after an attack in Diagon Alley. Auror!Harry offers to pose as Draco's guide dog (in animagus form). Harry makes an adorable dog and is sweet and protective and PERFECT! Draco is terribly insecure, very self-punishing and has basically lost of faith in the Wizarding World he has left behind to live in the Muggle world, but doggy!Harry and Harry himself, gives him back his happiness and confidence. Draco collects old, discarded books because he couldn't bear to throw them away (aww!). Cute H/D bonding and hurt/comfort moments. Also, cute flustered!Harry moments when he finds himself attracted to Draco. And cute Draco+doggy!Harry moments. Plus, the cutest, fluffiest ending ever *loves*

Summary: Don't think of it as losing your sight. Think of it as gaining an Animagus who never quite learned the meaning of the word 'boundaries'.

*Hollywood actor!Draco, Bodyguard!Harry. Past Harry/OMC (and that OMC is a total ass). Featuring Draco as a famous actor in the muggle world, a brooding!lonely!Harry, Draco's phobia of fire, Harry's love for all things cheesy (Taylor Swift songs and romance novels)... and is also a closet romantic, Draco's nightmares, lots of bickering and snark and happy, sexy ending :p

Summary: Harry Potter has spent the last seven years doing everything the Wizarding World's saviour and Golden Boy shouldn't - breaking it off with his childhood sweetheart, quitting Auror training, and living in isolation in Muggle London. Having just gotten out of an emotionally and financially abusive relationship, Harry hasn't been out of his house in weeks. Meanwhile, after disappearing from the Wizarding World and moving to America for seven years, Draco Malfoy has become a famous Hollywood actor and is back in England to film his latest movie. When Draco begins to receive serious threats, he asks for a Wizard bodyguard to be assigned to him, and who should be more fit for the job than the fallen-from-grace Man Who Lived Twice himself? But can Harry and Draco set aside their differences and work together, or is this just a disaster in the making?

*International liaison officer (between different wizarding ministries)!Harry. Social worker!Draco (working for the New York State office of children and family services)
#Story setting in New York (mostly). Basically, Harry bumps into a Cute!Domestic!Single father!Draco with two adorable sons (one, a hyper chatterbox and the other, small and quiet), was charmed off his feet by Draco's boys and Draco himself, decided to woo Draco. Featuring Lucius and Narcissa as parents who genuinely love Draco and misses him terribly when he "disappeared" post-war, Draco with a new baby brother, Draco with muggle friends and seemed to have given up magic for good, Domestic!Draco in an apron (with a baby on his hip) scene, fluffy first date (with a disastrous start, the result of Harry's naivety LOL!) and other dates with Draco and his boys.
#Story jumped a bit too fast from H/D just getting re-acquainted to falling in love and then getting married but it's still delightfully adorable

Summary: Seven years after the war Harry and Draco are living completely different lives, so what happens when their worlds collide again? Why Love of-course!

*War!fic. Harry and Draco on the run together (on the streets, somewhere in muggle New York and having to skimp on things because they don't have a lot of money), searching for a special gem stone called the Black Star which is a Horcrux. They argue and fight a lot (being broader and stronger, Harry almost always wins the fights... once, Harry beats up Draco pretty bad)... and lust after each other. Featuring pervert!Snape who squashes Draco in sleep, molests him and at one point contemplated suffocating Draco (>.< Do. Not. Like. This version of Snape), Mostly clueless!petulant!foul-tempered damsel-in-distress!Draco (he's also very jumpy and tends to cling to Harry when startled or scared), frustrated!Harry with anger and sexuality issues (frustrated that Draco's with him and that he's attracted to Draco... but can't help crushing his lips to Draco's anyways). Draco crossdressed at one point at Snape's insistence. Harry/Draco sharing a bed, holding hands in public (dragging the other everywhere), having coffee and pastries together, going clubbing, buying a ring, kissing, UST-ing and sexytimes. Also, minor character death (not H/D) and Draco making Ginny jealous (and she cries).

Summary: Draco must find something for the Dark Lord.

*Deliciously sexy ~~yummy!
Sexual experimentation. Professional sex worker!Harry (in a muggle setting) who is deliciously confident and at ease with his bisexuality (and his sexual prowess). Virgin!Closeted!Draco (when it comes to gay sex) who is adorably nervous yet enthusiastic at his first time with a man (Harry). Infidelity tag for Draco cheating on his fiancee with a male whore (Harry) to find out if he likes men. A bit of angst because Draco came to Harry under disguised as "David Mason" and Harry worries that "David" might have recognised him.

Summary/Description: He was a secret gigolo until a mysterious man hired him one night - a man who knew surprising facts about his past. Harry has left the Wizarding World and is making a living in a rather surprising way, but he loves his work and has a nice, calm life. Until someone who seems to recognise him appears on the scene - and Harry isn't keen on being recognised.

*HBP 6th year. Harry and Draco stuck in an orphanage in an Alternate Reality, with other orphaned children... but Draco remembers everything about his Hogwarts days while Harry acts as if he doesn't remember. Featuring a fatherly!Snape who genuinely cares for Draco, an unusual Snitch and necklace with a 'protection' rune, Christmas in an orphanage, flashbacks of Draco's childhood where Lucius is a caring father. #Mostly pre-slash and a bit of kissy scenes :p

Summary: Three Days before Christmas, Draco wakes up in a 1962 muggle children's home where he is told his parents have died. The only person he recognizes is Harry Potter, who claims to have no memory of Hogwarts or magic.

*ROMANTIC, SEXY AND UTTERLY BEAUTIFUL *loves*
Harry and Draco work for a cozy little (muggle) workshop in Amsterdam that makes musical instruments. And at one point Harry tends a bar. Basically Harry took to traveling and touring aimlessly in an attempt to cope with the aftermath of the War, he bumps into Draco, they have super hot, sexy, delicious sex and then Draco leaves. Harry obsesses (and pines) over their one night stand and decides to chase after Draco.... and he ends up in Amsterdam where he gets a job in a quaint little workshop, the same place Draco works. Meanwhile, Draco pines hopelessly after his gorgeous ex while half-torn between wanting Harry and wanting to strangle Harry. Smoking, drinking, touring, partying, pining (Draco pining after his ex and Harry pines after Draco) and delicious sex!

Summary: After years of running away, Harry crosses paths with an all-too familiar face and follows him to Amsterdam.

*Non-magic AU. Victorian era. Author!Draco. Draco is the poster boy of the higher elitist society (and he calls himself a traditionalist), while Harry is from the common class who have successfully built his own reputation as the 'self made man'. Draco started off as complete berk: arrogant, selfish, and prejudiced towards those of the lower classes but then he gets nicer towards the end. Harry is brave and self-righteous, but also arrogant and demanding. Both traits, he honestly didn't realize he exhibits - or maybe he's so used to pushing Draco, thinking that Draco is wrong and therefore Draco must change (or least see things the way Harry does) that he simply didn't see that he's just as arrogant and demanding (and a little bit too self-righteous) as Draco. Draco is a berk but he's an honest berk (to Harry at least) and he never pretends to be otherwise. Elitist!Slytherins. Commoners!Gryffindors. Slytherin!bashing. # Basically Draco mocks Harry in his book, Harry retaliates and everything escalates from there. Plus, while digging up secrets to blackmail Draco with, Harry discovered that Draco is gay.... and to be gay at that time is a crime. Also, Harry wrote a book too. Happy Harry/Draco ending. #No sex scenes.

Summary: It’s 1895, and in the Victorian society Charles Dickens and Oscar Wilde existed in, Harry works hard to rise in society. When Draco ruins Harry's status, a battle of societies begins.

*OMGOMGOMG THE CUTEST, FLUFFIEST THING EVER!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Non-magical AU with Ron as the class bully instead of Draco. Kiddies!Harry and Draco... and everyone else. Draco is the new kid, tiny and arrogant and he loves maths (Harry hates maths) and he's brilliant at vocabulary.... and he defends Harry, but is rather bad at making friends because of his arrogance (LOL!). Cutest fluffiest ending! Pre-slash.

Summary; Father's Day isn't any fun if you haven't got a father. Harry knows all about not having fun.

*OMG CUTENESS!! SWEET FLANGSTY STORY ♥♥♥♥♥
Basically, Harry wants to return Draco's wand to him. So he tracked Draco down and found out Draco has left the Wizarding world behind to live with muggles. Draco has his reasons for choosing to go muggle and Harry wants to help. Cute, sweet flangst happens! Draco + Goyle best friends. Thin yet feisty and prickly!Draco with a thing for oversized jumpers and muggle boy bands. Cute Harry and Draco bonding moments (Harry finds almost everything Draco does is endearing - wanting to wrap Draco in a blanket and other fluffy stuff). Draco lashes out something awful whenever he feels vulnerable. Harry seeing an apparition of sorts of Draco in one of his Auror training sessions and it finally made him realize how deeply his feelings are for Draco. Lost of magic, but with happy ending. Oh, and supportive!Weasleys (and Hermione).

Summary: Malfoy has disappeared, and Harry tracks him down because . . . he's Harry Potter. Expecting to save Malfoy from worldly evils, he is surprised to find him living as a Muggle and listening to ponce boy bands.

*~~SQUEEEEEE!! CUTE FLANGST ♥♥♥♥♥
Basically Draco moves into Harry's neighbourhood (strategically located right in between Wizarding London and Muggle London) and is not happy to find Harry there too. Then there's this quaint little tea shop not far from their neighbourhood that both Harry and Draco love to visit. They meet in that tea shop (with Harry under intense Glamour) and become friends (Draco didn't know the man he befriended is Glamour-ed!Harry)... and then gradually develop feelings for each other. Cute tea shop bonding moments. Harry (Glamour-ed as someone else) taking Draco out for dinner. Flangsty confession moment when Harry finally tells Draco the truth which upsets Draco. And a magical fire. Happy Harry/Draco ending and kisses. #No sex scenes.

Summary: In which Draco moves into his own place, but his neighbour - and the people he meets - are not quite what he expects.

*SO AMAZING I'M ALL TEARY-EYED BECAUSE THIS IS... GAAH, SO AWESOME I CAN'T FIND WORDS WORTHY ENOUGH TO DESCRIBE ITS AWESOMENESS!! ♥♥♥♥♥
Auror!Harry (with Auror partner!Ron) and a rebellious!Draco who has suddenly decide he needs to face all his fears before it's too late (he has a list of things he wants to do and he asks Harry to help him). Harry is reckless, more than usual, in this story and Ron (and everyone else who knows Harry) thinks Harry has a serious death wish, which to be honest isn't that far from the truth. Frightened!Quirky!Earnest!Draco with his fears, insecurities and desperation to face all of them, actually grounds Harry and stops him from doing crazy reckless things that could get him killed. Draco with his weird theories of muggles (especially muggle women LOL!) and his hilarious visit to the Dursleys (with a magical potted plan that gives you rabbit ears!!). Flying on a hippogriff, facing werewolves (Draco's boggart is a werewolf), bonding moments and hilarious chats with Harry. Sexytimes (Draco bruises way too easily), Harry's tattoos and angst and the discussion of feelings and Harry and Draco bonds for real and then happy, happy ending!
#Heavily implied switching, graphic and detailed penetrative sex scene is bottom!Draco. In other scenes, Harry was the one on the receiving end of a lovely rim-job and fingering.... unfortunately, nothing more than that. Regardless of Top/Bottom, every sex scene is sinfully delicious!!

Summary: "There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance." -- John Lennon

*The Malfoys were stripped of their magic as punishment for their war crimes. Quirky!Draco who bravely accepts his magic-less fate rather candidly. Cute mixture of both muggle (because Draco's magic-less and has a sudden interest in muggles) and magical details. Some exchange of letters between Harry and Draco that started everything. Sexy semi-public wanking *drools* and an in-denial!Harry (but finds himself irresistibly drawn to Draco anyway) What I love most of this fic is that there is nothing special about Draco - not super gorgeous or super smart or a sad misunderstood boy - he's as average as any other boy and Harry still finds himself obsessed and attracted to Draco :D
#No penetrative sex but there's some super sexy wanking ~squeeeeee!

Summary: Draco has lost his magic, and Harry has never been truly convinced of his own, which is just two more reasons in a long list of why they belong together.

*CUTENESS!!
Auror!Harry, Head of Magical Creatures Dept!Draco. Funny Twilight references. Attempted Draco/Oliver Wood. Past Harry/(super rich!)Justin Finch-Fletchley.. Going camping rich-muggle style with Justin and his friends. Justin's friends think Harry/Draco are together and they let them believe their 'pretend' relationship. Harry/Draco rooming together. Cute centaur foals (a bubbly little girl-centaur, an older rather petulant boy-centaur and another boy-centaur). Harry/Draco riding horses - Draco made the horses fly :D References to flying bunnies :D
#Mostly pre-slash and some cute fluffy moments towards the end but no sex scenes (yet). Too bad.

Summary: Harry has promised that he will not do anything to upset the new head of Magical Creatures. Even if it is Draco Malfoy. When three centaur foals appear in Cumbria, far from the Forbidden Forest and all too close to Muggles, Harry's promise is thoroughly tested. To say nothing of his equestrian skills.

*SWEET LOVELY FLANGST!! *loves*
Auror!Harry who has a talent for purposefully controlling/constructing the fabric of his dreams. Draco is a natural dream-walker/wanderer (He wanders between dreams). Lonely!Hurt-and-betrayed!Stuck-in-a-cursed-sleep!Draco. Harry saves the day. A bit of Draco/OMC (which makes Harry terribly jealous). Draco lives among muggles in a small, peaceful village. Amortentia as a medical cure. Harry and Draco in a domestic setting with fluffy sexytimes. #Only 2 sex scenes (too bad!), one of each: Bottom!Draco and Top!Draco. Both equally hot and delicious!!! :D

Summary: Dying, wet autumn bracken covered Malfoy. A few stray rusted orange and phlegm-yellow leaves with browning holes that looked like blood-stained bullet wounds lay scattered on and around him where the September winds had blown them.

*I HAVE NO WORDS FOR HOW AWESOME THIS IS!! TROUBLE FORMING REMOTELY COHERENT THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS EVEN! TOO BUSY FLAILING! ♥♥♥♥♥
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, featuring brief Draco/OC and brief Harry/Ginny at the start, Ron/Hermione, Ginny/Neville, & Dean/Luna

*Draco works in a muggle coffee shop, Harry's still clueless about what he wants to do in life. A bit of Harry/Ginny at the beginning (this means het sex scenes). Brief Draco/OMC scene because Draco has a boyfriend (and other flings) before Harry. Harry kept accidentally bumping into Draco in public places, mostly pubs and the coffee shop where Draco worked. Harry/Draco getting drunk together (Draco is a talkative drunk and has the tendency to overshare his life story when he's drunk. Harry just gets very loud :D). Harry and his brief sexuality crisis... not really a crisis just, he was rather oblivious for so long and then suddenly it's like a light bulb's been lit in his head. Draco and his muggle friends and obsession with muggle things and just generally a very quirky (cute and mad and so cute!) person. Draco's pretty much full of insecurities and guilt complexes... and a myriad of other issues while Harry's so aimless and insecure about being loved. Cute Harry/Draco bonding moments: getting drunk together, meeting up at the coffee shop, Draco snuggling into Harry's jacket while Harry's still wearing it! Harry pining and pining for Draco. Supportive Ron. Happy ending!

Summary: Harry thinks "Why is Malfoy working in a coffee shop in muggle London?" is a much simpler question than, "Are you going to accept that auror offer and, if you don't, what will you do?"

*Flangst at its best!! ♥♥♥
*Muggle kindergarden teacher!Draco. Basically it's all about Harry's (and Draco's) fatherly relationship with an adorable baby girl named Daisy. A teensy bit of Ginny bashing. References to past abuse (sexual and more). Breaks my heart but omg it's soooo good! The fluffy ending more than make up for all the angst!

Summary: The baby in his arms isn't Lily. She isn't his mother, she isn't a memory, she isn't part of the blankness that swallowed up the casualties of the war. She's his Daisy, and she gives him the strength he needs to follow his heart.
