H/D Oldies Recs List - Part 1 of 2
After over 4 years of reading H/D fics, I've finally compiled all my bookmarks into a rec list of more than 280 fics ^__^ They cover everything from classics to newbie fics, from drabbles to epic chapter fics. Hopefully, everyone should be able to find at least a couple of fics that they have never even heard of among the various entries.
Still, all the fics have in some way or another influenced and complimented my experience of H/D as my OTP in the Harry Potter fandom, and by extension, Draco as my favorite character.
Total Fics: 297
Note: My last update directly on this list was in June 2006. Latest recs that have yet to be added are HERE. I also sometimes rec fics individually using the harry/draco tag.
(Check out Rec list entries from N to Z)

Notes: Several drabbles, some of which are spectacularly wonderful H/D pieces.
- Untitled - by mistful [added: 21st Jun 2006]
Notes: That epic H/D fic that never got beyond a single entry. But characteristic of Maya's fics, a single entry is as long as a novella.

Ab Epistulis by autumn lecroix
15 yrs after Hogwarts, Draco owns a bookstore and ends up developing a correspondence with the author of his favorite novel. Humor, the abuse of a perfectly good lemon, renegade books, and those "good intentions" that go bad.
Adagio in G Minor by furiosity [added: 18th Feb 2006]

Another Way Through Time by furiosity
Harry still thinks he can tell who the wrong sort are for himself, thanks. A trip through time, or not, depending on your perspective. Includes epic battle scenes (except not), the question of obligations, entirely predictable confessions, and people watching each other sleep.
Another Way Through Time (Time After Time Remix) by novembersnow [added: 4th April 2006]

Notes: Based on Another Way Through Time by furiosity. Can be read as a stand alone but reading them back to back is *bliss*

Notes: This ends Harry/Draco. Its almost parody but still weirdly makes sense. Absolutely fabulous.

AU! Plot cliches galore, in smut form! Featuring leather-clad Draco and slightly-drunk, inexperienced Harry in a club, and all manner of good times!
Beautifully Familiar by silentauror

Casuistry by taffetablue [added: 4th April 2006]
Notes: The war is at an end, but things are far from over. This fic shows the reality of the world afterwards - the legal ramifications and repurcussions. Yet it does it in such a way and ends so well that you can't help but fall in love with the H/D pairing all over again.

After finally defeating Voldemort, Harry Potter can take no more. He leaves the wizarding world for good. But three years later the Dark Lord has a 21st birthday present for the Boy Who Lived. Just what Draco has to do with that present is anyone's guess.

Different Kind of War, A by marykins and rosesanguina [added: 10th Feb 2006]
Notes: Ten interrelated but stand alone drabbles. Rosesanguina wrote the ones from Draco's point-of-view, and marykins wrote the ones from Harry's. One of the drabbles isn't porny, but the rest are.
Dimensionally Challenged by Signe
Notes: Draco is the portrait that guards the entrance- Harry needs to get in. But the password has changed. I love Portrait!Fic and this is fabulous.

Notes: Why having two Head Boys is such an interesting issue. Funny and the last line always puts a smile on my face.

Notes: A crazy fic that made me laugh. Fun for all :)

Once upon a time, there lived a boy named Draco Malfoy. Through a series of events, not all of which were of his own design, he came to spy for his childhood arch-nemesis, Harry Potter.
Notes: Furiosity is pretty much my favorite author in the HP fandom. Her writing is truly brilliant. Having said that I must warn you that this is a Death Fic. I don't read fics of the ilk- but when it comes to F...exceptions must be made.
Draco and the Not-Potter by circe_tigana
Notes: Draco refuses to acknowledge the Fake!Potter.

Draco took a deep breath and let it out slowly. It sucked being in love.

Dragon Dreams by lilian_cho [added: 10th Feb 2006]

Notes: Seems angst ridden but then there is that lovely ending we all love to read.
Esurience by Anansay

Fairplay by ladyvader
This fic is a blatant rip-off of the movie Willow
Notes: Think Cupid getting struck by his own arrow...except its Harry and its a chemical/magic substance instead. Not as hokey as it sounds.
Fallen Flying by arca
Harry leads a boring life, Draco has too much on his hands. Together they may find the balance they lack.
Fidelius by coffeejunkii

Starts out slow, ends pretty quick. Pfft, men.
Genesis by hanfics
This year isn’t going to be like all the others. He just knows it. A Draco-centric reimagining of HBP
