Author's Website: nolagal's fic list
Why everyone should read this: First, I admit, I am not a cross-gen fan. And worse, I absolutely cannot see Draco doing anything with the son of Harry Potter, unless he were with Harry Potter. There, I said it. And yet, and here is where my mind was blown, I loved this fic enough to consider the possibility that I was wrong! After a tragedy in the family, Draco and Albus find solace in each other, very unexpectedly and sometimes unwillingly. Their grief is very real, as is their response to it, which makes it all that more heartbreaking. This fic is messy, and hard to read at points, but such a breath of fresh air amongst other cookie-cutter fics. And even though Scorpius is never in the scene, you feel him in every breath both Draco and Albus take, enough to feel that you know him too and are saddened by his loss. This author and I started in fandom on the same exact day and its been a pleasure to see her talent grow. This, to me, is my favorite fic of hers because not only does it make me a proud friend to know she wrote it, I'm extremely jealous of this girl's writing chops! So run to this fic, don't stand still, and give this author some much deserved love!!!!

Why everyone should read this:
I can't believe I'm reccing something here, this is one of my favourite communities on LJ. Okay, gather. Let's keep it simple: this is a brilliant fic. It focuses on Susan, Hannah and other Hufflepuff students in their 7th year as they try to survive and continue the resistance in Dumbledore's Army while being constantly reminded of their loved ones' fate. Susan and Hannah's friendship is amazingly written, the Hufflepuffs have distinct personalities and a distinct universe (the kitchen of Hogwarts, the house-elves, The Three Broomsticks) and the plot is incredibly gripping and realistic. This fic has an excellent adventure plot and the mystery is partly unresolved at the end so you can draw your own conclusions. Flawless piece, I wish we had this kind of treat more often.

Susan glanced at Hannah. Surely Neville wasn't in trouble if Megan was so happy. )
