Abjlfuafe, this is so full of win that I don't know where to start! So, uh, I'm just gonna flail randomly, okay? :P
Ha! OMG, I love your filthy-mouthed, unembarrassed, down-to-earth, in-charge Harry here. Damn good point that X number of years spent working in the Aurors department would have that effect on a person to some extent. But also, it's pretty consistent with the younger Harry from canon. He's never been shy, and has always been pretty direct and willing to speak up and lead. So the way you've written him here just seems like a natural evolution of his character. It's also fun as hell that you wrote him as someone who clearly has some sexual experience under his belt and knows what he likes and what he wants -- and clearly isn't afraid to speak up about that either! Gagging-for-it-bottom!Harry FTW!!
So his dynamic with Draco here is pretty fantastic. It's great getting to see Draco in the role of the less secure, self-assured one. (I love that he honestly didn't know that Harry was seeing the messages to Blaise, by the way; at first I expected it to be an intentional ploy, heh.) But of course, he's still Draco, and he does a good job of recovering quickly. ;) And speaking of, OMG HOW FUCKING HOT WAS THE SCENE IN HARRY'S OFFICE WITH THE SCARF, AHHHHH, THE UST!!
Also, while I'm all with the capslock and flailing: OH GOD OHGODOHGOD, THE DIRTY TALK!! Or not really even talk when most of it was in writing, ha! So, yes, the effect of Harry making him actually SAY IT in the end was just... A WHOLE WORLD OF YES, HERE HAVE AN INTERNET. Guuuuuuuuuuuuuh. ::faints::
Oh, man, and so much love for the long-distance (er, IM??) conversation. Hee! That was actually rather adorable. Boys! <3
And lest I forget that there was actually a plot in there -- nice set-up and twist. :D I think Draco has actually become a better Slytherin over the years. When he was younger, he would probably have been far too arrogant and hot-headed to willingly make himself look bad in order to achieve something he wanted, yanno? But of course he'd embrace "by any means necessary" more fully with age, especially after the war and all...
Okay, shit. I just did all that rambling and squeeing over the fic, and now I can't say as much about the art, and this is going to be totally unbalanced, so sorry! D:
First pic: OMG, guh! You so totally captured the intensity of that scene. Harry's hands gripping the scarf -- ::flail::! Draco's expression is perfect; he's trying to be all nonchalant, snarky Slytherin, and he just can't do it. Not that Harry's doing much better, hee! Man, I love Harry's... well, his entire face, really! His hair, eyes, lips, nose... and his robes totally rock.
Second pic: YAY! First of all, that's a great job with the perspective there. Not an easy position and angle to convey. Also, yes, just hot. LOL Love Harry's long, lean back/body, and the way he's looking back, guh. I love the placement of Draco's hand under Harry's hip. And, uh, the placement of other things... ::stares and falls over::
Great job, both of you. The art compliments the story so damn well. ::applauds::
