fourth_rose
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, possibly many people/Boris Johnson, but let’s not go there.
Summary: Harry is loaned to the Muggle government to assist relations between the two governments after the London bombings. When his counterpart in the Communications team comes to him with evidence of a plot to expose wizarding Britain, he is all ears. And only in part because the messenger has such a familiar voice.
Rating: PG
Warning(s): The promptee requested Draco dealing with the Muggle world, hence there is an awful lot of it!
Epilogue compliant? What is this epilogue of which you speak?
Word Count: ~23,500
Author's Notes: Dear Rose, I am a great fan of your work, and, as such, it pains me to admit failure. But while your prompts of politics, Draco dealing with Muggle culture and professional jobs were easy enough, every time I sat down to write angst, comedy erupted instead. I ask a great favour – that you believe they are using humour to mask their pain. Aside from that, I think I hit most of your requests, and do hope you enjoy this trifle, gifted to you in suitable appreciation of your wonderful opus. Many thanks to those who helped with it, you are all wonderful. And to the mods for their patience and support, which was above and beyond!

He Dreams in Monochrome, for

dm_p
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco; Draco/OC
Summary: The line between love and possession is so vague that no one knows where it cuts deepest.
Rating: NC-17
Warning(s): Established relationship, infidelity, angst, (imagined) violence.
Epilogue compliant? No.
Word Count: 5100 words
Author's Notes: Happy holidays,

dm_p! I really hope this is to your liking. :) Thanks to my beta, who must remain unnamed for the nonce.

Once Upon A Time, Yesterday, for

violet_quill
Pairing(s):
Summary: "You've always been obsessed with Malfoy, Harry. That should probably tell you something."
Rating: NC-17
Warning(s): past relationship, older Harry and Draco
Epilogue compliant? Oh, so very, but perhaps with a bit of filling-in-the-blanks.
Word Count: ~22,000
Author's Notes: Many, many thanks to my three wonderful betas and to the mods for their generous patience with me. And happy holidays to

violet_quill! Thank you so much for the chance to write this.

Left Unsaid, for

melusinahp
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, Blaise/Pansy
Summary: War has brought them together, for a fleeting moment.
Rating: R for two bloody scenes
Warning(s): character death, possible major character death (depending on individual interpretation), blood in two scenes (pages 7 and 11, possible to skip if you click really fast), dark
Epilogue compliant? No. Not even DH compliant.
Artist's Notes:

melusinahp, I had a lot of doubt before and during the making of this story, partly because its nature (no porn + character death) would probably turn away most audiences, and partly because I wasn't confident that my skill would allow me to get the theme across. But I went ahead and created this story for you, as for some strange reason I was hopeful that you might like it. Thank you very much for the inspiring prompt and preferences in your sign-up post!

oooOOOooo
...and that's all they wrote :)

So

hd_holidays is all done. Anybody wishing to say thanks to the mods, or guess authors, or comment on the weather in an H/D friendly environment, the final post is here.

Happy New Year, everyone!
