Do you remember the title of the Harry Potter fic or still have the link?

Honestly I believe that kind of feeling is more likely to come from certain spheres of fanfic, although I have a hard time articulating why. There's more space for using pre-existing emotional weight to build and explore themes (that are more likely to match our own generation's anxieties) and create an effect, rather than the sort of plot-dominant story construction that most media follows. IDK, maybe that's bullshit.

I don't think that's bullshit at all, I think that's exactly right. Though I dunno about the "own generation's anxieties" thing. (I do think there's definitely a "more geared towards female anxieties" thing though, which tends to be neglected in original stories that aren't blatantly "women's fiction" or whatever.)

It was this one: http://archiveofourown.org/works/392764/chapters/645041

YMMV obviously, but it's definitely worth the read.

I'll take your word for it since there's no way I would ever read a 65,000 word Draco/Harry fic, but thanks for linking it! I'll bookmark it and might pass it along to someone who might be interested.

FOR THE RECORD, the H/D is very light, I have never shipped it, and it could almost be gen, if it's a matter of not being interested rather than a hard NoTP

I actually considered saying this earlier but didn't because I didn't want to offend someone who WAS a shipper, lol, it still feels so popular

it was written before the 7th book and it's mostly just about - how do all these kids who were on different sides of a war have/make/live in a future after a war? and it's just lots of casual and less casual conversations as they sort of lurch toward healing and friendship between a pretty large ensemble cast

but yeah obv if it's not for you that's cool

[intrigueing]

That does sound interesting! I'll keep it in my "unread fics" bookmark folder just in case ;)
