Help! Specific Fic(s) Search!

I love, love, LOVE, bottom Draco. But, my taste in fics featuring bottom Draco has changed a lot over the years, and therefor I need a bit of help finding fics to read. For starters, I used to adore all cliches that came with bottom Draco (and still do sometimes). I use to enjoy reading about Draco playing the somewhat weaker character and being doted on, or sub, until I started to dive further into the fandom. Now, seeing him depending on someone (cough, Harry) just irks me (more so now than ever). I have come to dislike Pinning!Draco, Submissive!Draco, Veela!Draco, low-self esteem Draco...basically a dependent Draco or 'weak' Draco. Usually if such things appear in the story and isn't the main theme, I am more then happy to read the fic, but if it is...I won't be reading it anytime soon.

I have been searching across the net and sites for any Independent or even Dominate bottom Draco fics in general, and found that there aren't very many. It is likely because when people think of bottom Draco (or any bottoming male character) they feel the need to make him weaker, shorter, petite, feminine, Submissive, dependent, etc. And I admit at first, I thought this too, but now I know better.

So, now that I am done rambling, I ask for some help.

I am looking for five main things:
  1. An in character Draco, or one where he doesn't suddenly start kissing the lights side (Harry) butt, turn into a goody two shoes, loses the main traits that makes him my favorite character (which includes all his stuck up pureblood-ness) that quite a lot of authors like to purge out of him in there stories.
  2. Genre(s) I like: Adventure/Action/Romance/Angst/Hurt-comfort/Drama/Fantasy
  3. Warnings I don't mind: Mpreg, Creature, Violence, Gore, Au, Torture, Abuse, Rape, Mental illness, Threesome, Incest, Crude-humor, Cross-dressing, PWP/Smut, Time-travel, BDSM (No Sub, broken, weak, Dependent or pathetic Draco. If there are hint of these, that's fine, but nothing overly done.)
  4. Independent, Dominate, Powerful, bottom Draco.
  5. A bottom Draco story were he is the main focus, or main factor.
I know for a fact that number four had pretty much made my search impossible for many, but the help is still very much appreciated. If you know a story that fit any, (not all) of these top five categories then fill free to tell me about it.

Tissue of Silver by Fearless Diva (http://www.silververse.net/hp/tissue.htm) has a really independent/strong!draco & is quite good. It's super long & has several sequels which I haven't read. (*There is no sex in the 1st one, & I suspect the others are switch!fics or possibly top!draco.)

Salt on the Western Wind by saras_girl (http://hd-smoochfest.livejournal.com/82396.html)

If you like Ron/Draco:
Fixed in a Morning Sun by Setissma (http://setissma.livejournal.com/444903.html) has a really skilled draco who holds his own (it's been a while so I'm a bit fuzzy...)


In My Purpose Bred by PineTranio
(http://www.thrihyrne.net/purposebred.html) has some great action & mystery & a strong draco.
Enjoy! :)

Hm both [livejournal.com profile] oldenuf2nb and [livejournal.com profile] olimakiella write b!Draco and avoid the girly/submissive Draco you want to avoid.

I would say Oath Breaker (http://kc-anathema.livejournal.com/576881.html) by kc_anathema should fit your search.

You've just described my favorite versions of Draco! It's been awhile since I've read these, so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details, but I'm pretty sure you will like the Draco in these stories. I can't swear that there is no switching in them, but if there is i don't remember it, so it is probably minor.

You can see the rest of my Harry Potter bookmarks here (http://www.delicious.com/isolda_mondragon/fandom%3Aharrypotter). It's mostly strong!Draco, with no top!Draco fics, although there are a few switching fics and some gen fics.
