All-time fave: Rituals and Traditions by amanuensis
This fic is such a classic! And comically takes sex magic to it's ridiculous limit, but in the best possible way :)

Originally published January 21, 2003 at the Restricted Section (at least, that's the earliest copy I can find)
Rated: NC-17
Word Count: 6,700
Summary: Draco shackled to a pillar. Harry wielding a sword. One goofy plot device. You do the math.
Why I love it:
This fic is all kinds of great. Fun, cheeky, and sexy as hell :) As the summary explains, we open with Draco shackled to a pillar (alone) waiting to be sacrificed as part of a creepy Death Eater ritual to give Voldemort another new body. Harry comes riding in to save the day, but it can't be that easy. Voldemort has already done some sort of Dark Magic binding Draco to him, so in order to save Draco, Harry has to undo it. And how is he supposed to do that? With sex magic of course :)
And sex magic should be complicated, right? Sure! You won't believe how complicated! Yet Harry's brash confidence and competence and Draco's wry acceptance of it all just works and makes for an enjoyably silly fic. Canon be damned, this just never gets old.
Excerpt:
Harry kept his mouth on Draco until the twitching in his hyperstimulated organ ceased entirely, and then, as Draco watched through that sluggish haze of bliss, Harry withdrew his mouth, lips closed, and bent down to the tome in front of him and spat the mouthful of come onto the illuminated pentagram on the page.
As Draco was absurdly thinking How rude, Harry wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and glanced up at Draco, smiling. "No offense. You taste wonderful."
The red and gold ink of the illumination began to fizzle, little sparks like miniature fireworks racing around the border of the pentagram, shifting through a spectrum of colors until finally the red remained but all the gold on the page was replaced by silver, pulsing with an iridescence that you could only see if you didn't look directly at it. Draco murmured, "We never had a class on that."
"Would have been very popular. Okay, that's step one." He closed the book with a thud, making Draco blink at the abrupt dismissiveness of a truly amazing blowjob. What on earth did he have planned as a follow-up?
As if he'd spoken, Harry said, "I hope it's okay if I admit I'm really going to like this next part."

So glad you are enjoying my recs - it's so nice to hear that! And it's so much more work than I thought it would be :/
"Post a rec every day," she thought. "It'll be fun," she thought.
Ha! I'm going to nap all the way through November :)

I have a stack of the others saved to Ao3/bookmarked, and I'm really curious to read the fics with overt A/B/O dynamics. I've never really read it, but I do really enjoy werewolf fics and knotting, so I'm testing the waters.
Posting every day is impressive, I haven't managed it once so far! you will definitely need to nap through November. I am very (selfishly) glad there are more recs to come though.
