Im currently suffering a severe case of insomnia... right now Im just hoping this makes sense.

I've been reading far too many fanfics where the HP world is just too pro-gay (not that its a bad thing but well i guess im just looking for this particular type of angst/drama that doesnt end up in suicide... or maybe...idk) that it makes me wonder if there are any fics out there that are show the HP-world as anti-gay/homophobe--like back in the 18th century or earlier-- not timeline wise but more of sodomy punishable by death or something.

What if for both Harry and Draco that kind of love simply isnt allowed in wizarding society because wizarding society was just backwards like that? what legths are they gonna take to keep their love or themselves alive I wonder.

Has anyone encounterd a story or two? there has to be right?

Thanks.

PS. I just finshed reading "At your service" by Faith Wood -- so far, its the fic to beat. the plot is the bomb...

The best fic with that kind of theme, IMO is Changing of the Guard by lomonaaeren. Really deals well with homophobia in wizarding society. There is switching in the fic, though, just FYI.

I kept seeing the title before I guess the switching is what bothered me most...

Guess its time I go back to it.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure it's only one scene with bottom Harry, so it shouldn't be too hard to skip over, I don't think.

Splintered. by Aquila_Star (http://archiveofourown.org/works/86410?view_full_work=true)

The Unbearable Burden of Caring by Tessa Crowley (tessacrowley) (http://archiveofourown.org/works/1087638?view_full_work=true) --> This one is pretty intense & angsty, but really good.

Hope this helps! :)
