Good versus bad

This was tough! Looking at the bad fics, I counted a distubring number of eight! The final criterium for me was 'I will never read this one again".

Bad
Title: Patting Peter
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Sirius is plotting.
Author's Notes: You know the occasional story you write and simply can't feel pleased, let alone excited, with it? This is one of them. My only Marauders fic and it doesn't do anything for me. They feel dead, somehow. Yes, I wanted to try new characters but alas - I couldn't care less about them (especially James and Peter) and I guess it shows.
Also, that last line? It was meant as a hint; after this event, Sirius thought of luring Snape into the Whomping Willow. Nobody picked it up so apparently I didn't get that across.

The Bad
TITLE: Vengeance and Pacifiers
PAIRING: Harry/Lucius
RATING: R
GENRE: humour/romance/parody

The Bad )

Teh Good (or so I hope...)
TITLE: Night Over Azkaban
PAIRING: Harry/Lucius
RATING: NC-17 (went AU after GOF, underage-ness)

Of course the embarrassing thing is that The Good was written way earlier than Teh Bad… so much for improvement…

Summary: the good one.

Good vs. Bad Challenge

Title: A Hairy Tale
Author: [info]elfflame
Character: Draco (gen)
Rating: G?
A/N: A little fic that just came to me while watching a certain scene in Howl's Moving Castle. The second I saw the scene, I knew I had to write it. Not a cross-over at all, so no need to have seen the movie.
I chose this one because, while it’s not bad, per se, it’s not good, either. It falls short of being funny, or being even interesting, really. The image I had in my head just didn’t seem to transfer, no matter what I tried, so I gave up. It probably needed a deeper exploration than I was willing to give it, I suppose. But trust me, it was funny in my head…


The Bad )


Title: Precious Silver
Author: [info]elfflame
Pairing: Severus/OMC (sort of), LM/SS and SS/DM implied
Rating: R
Warning: Implication of incest, dub con, adult/child and adult/teen sex
A/N: This is actually part of a series I wrote, though this is complete in itself. The first Severus/Draco I ever wrote. It’s near and dear to my heart, even in all it’s complexities.
I do feel the need to explain my Lucius, here. I love Lucius. And he was just about the second character to take up residence in my head after Draco. That said, I don’t see him as a nice person. I see him as an amoral person who has three concerns: himself, his family, and the pureblood community. In that order, generally.
In this fic, I have him doing some pretty creepy things. But keep in mind, this is a Lucius who has been affected by his time in Azkaban. Granted, part of his creepiness comes in before he’s ever sent to Azkaban, but I see that as his way of protecting his son from his needs. I don’t want to say more here, or it will give away too much of the plot, but I hope you will keep that in mind when reading the story.

Author: [info]lordhellebore
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Angst
Warnings: Violence
Summary: Draco is thankful that is father teaches him the most important rule a Malfoy has to follow: not to be weak.
Notes: This ficlet is from two years ago, and yes, I was a member of the "Lucius is an abusive father" crowd. *sigh* Cliché ahead.

THE GOOD

Title: Saving Angel
Author: [info]lordhellebore
Rating: R
Genre: Romance, Tragedy
Pairing: Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy
Warnings: Violence, insanity
Summary: Every day, Draco had been waiting for his angel to come and save him, but he had been let down. Now he has to make his angel understand, even if that means to hurt him...
Notes: It still has the cliché, but I like this one much better than the first - it has more atmosphere, methinkst.

The Bad

The bad ...
From my early days of fanfic ... almost a whole year ago ;-)
As part of the then hd_boardgame, both of these "tie" as the bad.
The first is an angst drabble ... looking back why would Draco have looked at Harry in disgust?  Snape wouldn't have let Malfoy just walk out.  It's just not a well written drabble, plain and simple.

The Bad #1       

The Bad #2

The Good

The "good"
Although my overall favorite piece whould have to be my "Ties That Bind" multi-chapter fic (my longest written piece ever ... and first piece ever), the story below "Babyville" I think is my best one shot.  It really goes deep into the heart of a couple in love struggling with demands of daily life and with relationship problems.  It's also the piece that I reveal the most of myself.


Title: Babyville
Author: Dracoluvah 
Pairing: Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Romance and hurt/comfort
Warnings: Previous MPreg is a theme (does not actually occur during the story)

A/N: Thanks to my beta Mistress Gwen! Also, MPreg is typically a squick of mine, so I wanted to write a story about issues couples may face and how they choose to deal with it.  So, since no one if officially preg in this, I hope you can give it a chance.

Disclaimer: Harry, Draco, Hermione and pretty much anything else recognizable belongs to J.K. Rowling.
