Oh, oh, oh! I love this SO MUCH. I mean, I can barely *articulate* how awesome this is! Jesus god, woman!
And it's not just all the careful preparation (which, oh yes, is phenomenal) but all the little details too, which make it sing. Like Draco musing about where and how Harry bought the special lube! The keen embarrassment that Draco feels, while at the same time wanting it so badly. Harry's extreme patience and willingness to go for four fingers if that's what Draco wants. The way Harry talks to him. ALL OF IT IS SO AMAZING!!!
I love love love the awkwardness and checking in with each other and Harry not getting it in the first time :) It all works to illustrate that this is their first time doing this, and first times can (and should!) be awkward as hell.
Thank you so much for this wonderful thing! I'm going to go back to your LJ now and squee and flail a bit more :)
