Title: A Dream of Waking
Author: [livejournal.com profile] eidheann_writes
Prompt: PROMPT # 51
Adapted from: The Painted Veil
Pairing: Harry/Draco, Blaise/Draco
Word Count: ~16,000
Rating: NC-17
Contains: angst, infidelity, mpreg, all as per the prompt. Also, Pansy, who wasn’t prompted, but deserves a warning label nonetheless. Otherwise, there's a bit of dirty-ish sex and some entirely made up potions theory.

Notes: Dearest [livejournal.com profile] tsuki_13, you don’t know me, but I think I may love you a little. When I saw this prompt I needed it. Seriously, all during the initial prompting comments, I watched it and went MINE! It so closely matches my likes I couldn’t pass it up, even though I’ve thought multiple times during the writing that I probably should have. ;) This fic ended up being slightly more inspired by than directly adapted, but I hope you don't mind. But thank you, thank you, thank you for prompting.

Huge thanks to the mods for their patience with me, especially once January came around and I started seriously spamming them. (xx [livejournal.com profile] appleling. And cookies to [livejournal.com profile] icicle33 who took pity on my flailings and volunteered to brave my run-on sentences and love of adverbs to beta this beastie. You are amazing and I love you.) To OM, who went WAY above and beyond the call of duty, first with the cheerleading, then the pre-reading and finally a wee bit of britpicking so I could get my insults just right, and even promising to make certain this gets turned in if certain bits of my life conspire against me, even though the warnings for this fic pretty much make a map of her squicks. SORRY! I’ll write you something without any warning labels! Sometime in the future! I swear!

Title taken from Aristotle: Hope is the dream of a waking man.
Summary: "You always were contrary. Had I known you’d jump into an engagement with the first person you spoke to after our little tête-à-tête, I might have been gentler with my persuasion."

WAHH!

Ugh, oh, I was such an emotional muddle after this fic that I left it a week to comment, and I still don't really know what to say. I loved Pansy, that's a start... I wanted to bitch slap Blaise SO much, but he was also *gorgeous*. I screamed at Draco repeatedly, then wanted to cuddle him and tell him everything will be okay. Harry would have also been mentally screamed at, but he had enough going on already so I let him off, knowing that Draco would make him see sense. Heartbroken that Blaise is the father, but he had to be really.

GAH, I loved it <3

Thank you. The fact that it took you a week to clear yourself to comment, I take as a HUGE compliment.

And thank you for loving Pansy, she was pretty amazingly fun to write. <3 And I'm glad that you loved everyone, including Blaise. I worked hard to not throw him quite under the bus, he's not BAD just...

*sighs and pets him*
