Drabble recs from Slythindor100's LDWS 2010

[snowgall]

This probably seems kinda random, but during this year's slythindor100 Last Drabble Writer Standing tournament, I went back through some of the previous fests and read those drabbles too. So I have drabble recs for you from the first LDWS fest in 2010 :)

Aug 4, 2010 prompt: I hate that I want you

#8 A Moment of Truth by leo_draconis ( PG-13 | 299 ) - I liked this. Sweet and hesitant and guarded.

Aug 10, 2010 prompt: Fuck me, fix me

#5 Broken by oldenuf2nb ( PG | 296 ) - Nice.
#7 Therapy by nicevenn ( NC-17 | 299 ) - I like this concept, of Draco doing 'penance' of a sort by allowing Harry to use him, and of Harry needing him to heal.
#9 Almost Naked by lokifan ( NC-17 | 299 ) - Nice story.

Aug 17, 2010 prompt: You're great in bed but you're still an arse

#5 Silence is Golden by dysonrules ( NC-17 | 200 ) - I like the imagery, and the ending.
#6 Doomed by mizbean ( R | 200 ) - Well done.
#7 Necessary Roughness by leo_draconis ( R | 200 ) - Good dialogue and characterization. Funny and hot too.

Aug 24, 2010 prompt: Enough with this

#6 The Rules by oldenuf2nb ( PG-13 | 250 ) - I like this scenario, and the dialogue fits. Ending is bittersweet, but I choose to believe hopeful.

Sep 7, 2010 prompt: It's your fault I can't love you

#3 What Draco Malfoy Knows by vaysh ( PG-13 | 450 ) - This was great and really worked for me.
#4 Inventory by dysonrules ( PG | 450 ) - Aww. Predictable, but well done.

Sep 14, 2010 prompt: It's my fault I nearly lost you forever

#3 To The Victor by dysonrules ( PG | 199 ) - Well done; lots of feels.

As far as I can tell, none of these drabbles are available on AO3. Why not upload them for posterity?

♥ Thank you so much for the rec. For all the recs. And you're right, the drabbles should go to AO3.

[snowgall]

You're so welcome :) Do post to AO3 if you can - I love seeing works archived there ♥

[vaysh]

I usually post everything on AO3 but with drabbles, it's a bit of a problem if there is no set of drabbles. It feels weird to post such short things. Will try to come up with a format. :)

[snowgall]

Yeah, I do know what you mean - I've been working with birds to see about posting her LDWS 2013 drabbles, and deciding on a good format is tough. LMK if you want any help or input with that! I can even do the uploading for you like I've been doing for kitty_fic and for birds. Just if you're interested.

[vaysh]

From the other comments I was guided to your post about how to archive drabbles. Fascinating stuff. And thank you so much for your sweet offer. Right now I think I can figure something out for myself but I'll PM you if I feel I need input. ♥

[lokifan]

Aw, yay! Thank you again ♥ I love LDWS competitions, they turn up such lovely little fics.

[snowgall]

They really do! And then so often the drabbles get forgotten about. So I'm glad to bring them back to people's attention.

And if you feel inspired to post yours to AO3, that would be awesome too :) We had a whole discussion about it here not too long ago: http://snowgall.livejournal.com/32998.html People felt very passionately about it!
