firethesoundTitle: In the Interest of Interhouse Cooperation
Summary: Organizing a Duelling Club was supposed to be a fun extracurricular activity for Harry’s 8th year. But add in Draco Malfoy and a malfunctioning Room of Requirement, and things can’t help but get complicated.
Rating: NC-17
Warning(s): A slight bit of dominance during sex, and maybe a teensy bit of dub-con.
Word Count: 12k
This is the fic that nearly wasn't. I was still struggling through Stop All the Clocks when I claimed this prompt, but thought it'd be a few thousand words of smut and humor for someone I felt fairly comfortable writing for, and having a deadline on it would be a good way to force my brain to switch gears after writing so much angst. This'll be easy, I thought.
(I should really stop thinking that.)
This actually took about twice as long to write as Clocks did, frighteningly enough. But once I got into it, I really had fun. It ended up much longer than I thought it'd be, mostly due to the fact that I didn't have an ending so I just kept adding to the middle until one came to me, which involved a lot of stalking Birds to get ideas for more things to add that she might like, which I really enjoyed doing. (Possibly more than I should have, but stalking = love, right?) And I'm very pleased with how it turned out.
Thanks so much to everyone who read and commented and recced. I really appreciated all of your very kind words. <3

And I am sorry you were panicky and sleep-deprived. I hope things are better now.

Sneaky-delightful is the best compliment I've had in a while. :D
