This was a cute, quick fanfic. It was quite nice to take a moment to enjoy Sweet Draco, but I'm going to go back to reading more Completely Unhinged Draco now. 😆
I went into this fic with pretty high expectations, and honestly, it delivered in such a fun way. The writing is smooth, witty, and so easy to sink into—it never felt heavy or overdone. I found myself flying through the chapters without realizing how much time had passed. It has that perfect balance between entertaining banter and meaningful moments, which made it an addictive read from start to finish.
What really got me, though, was the dynamic between Draco and Hermione. Their soul bond was everything 🥺✨ It wasn’t just a convenient plot device; it added layers to their relationship and made their connection feel inevitable, almost cosmic. Watching them struggle, resist, and ultimately lean into that bond made my heart melt in the best way. Every interaction between them carried this mix of tension and tenderness that had me grinning like a fool.
And listen… I’m always down for some Ron-bashing, especially when it’s well-deserved 🙈 In this fic, it actually fit the story and gave Hermione the space to shine with Draco without the usual love triangle nonsense. It didn’t feel over the top, just the right amount of “finally, someone said it.”
Another highlight was when the Slytherin team joined the mystery-solving. Pansy, Theo, and Blaise were such a joy—snarky, clever, and surprisingly supportive. The way they worked alongside Harry and Hermione made the whole thing feel like an unlikely but perfect team-up. Their group dynamic brought so much life to the story, and honestly, I’d read a whole spin-off with just that crew solving problems together 🐍🕵️♀️.
I also loved how the story didn’t take itself too seriously. The humor sprinkled throughout kept it light even when things got intense. Some fanfics can drag on with endless angst, but this one gave me just enough drama without losing its playful tone. Honestly, I found myself laughing out loud more times than I expected 😂, which was such a nice surprise.
Overall, this was such a delightful read. It gave me all the swoons, laughs, and soul-bond magic I didn’t know I needed. If you love Dramione with a touch of destiny, some well-deserved Ron shade, and a Slytherin-Gryffindor mystery-solving dream team, I definitely recommend this one 💕
This fic needs more love. This one was supposed to be a one-shot, and got 26th chapters instead.
Is full of very delicate topics, like post trauma, lowsteen, dealing with consequences of life, and the feel of not being in control of your own life. At same time, the author is so sensible in how it all is put, that even the clear mistakes, they have a very human nature behind them, and it is so beautiful and meaningful.
I love how it shows how sometimes life can be entirely different when you have the support that you need, to turn even the most terrible events of our lives in something that will change us in positive direction.
This is one of my comfort Fics, and I do read it at least once a year.
Was my first book of the year a fanfic? Yes. Was it a book-accurate fanfic? Hell no. Did I enjoy the proper communication for once? Hell yes. Was it just the cute read I needed for this vacay? Also yes.
