Either H/D or H/SS -- jealous!Harry or insecure!Harry with happy ending. "You're such a moron, Potter," said fondly.

(Jealousy can be all in Harry's mind or be deliberate on Draco's or Severus's part to get Harry's attention.)

Harry/Any
Having received no presents as a child, Harry discovers that as an adult, he'll do anything to be given presents.

Draco/Harry, Draco/Neville or Draco/Ron - Draco stuck with a Gryffindor. Stuck in a Muggle elevator in an abandoned building on Christmas Eve. (For some reason magic isn't working?)

Charlie Weasley's Snow Removal Services.

Wow, it seems so odd to think about Yule or New Year's in August. And yet Mr Psmith pointed out last night that there are only nineteen Fridays until Christmas, yikes!! So here goes:

(1) Hogwarts faculty Yule or New Year's party shortly after Severus has begun teaching there -- lots of scope for fun and frolic, perhaps a little bit of "why in Merlin's name did you hire the Death Eater??", etc. Bonus points for including: a few students who have remained at school over the holidays, UST with Snape and McGonagall, an unusual flirtatious pairing.

(2) Christmas with the Evans family after Lily's first term at Hogwarts -- what was it like for Petunia, for Lily, for their parents? Could also feature young Severus, if you like. Bonus points for including a Hogwarts teacher/faculty in some manner -- e.g., maybe they go to Diagon Alley on Christmas Day or New Year's Day.

(3) Any pairing, your choice. Couple has been together a long time. Each year, they make sure to at some point acquire one special new ornament (and they write the year on it), so by now they have 20, 30, 40 of these "Year Ornaments." I'd like to see the two of them together decorating the tree, as they take out each of these Year Ornaments and reminisce about how each one was acquired. Bonus points for a highly unusual ornament, or one that was acquired in a strange or unusual way.

(4) "In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer." Albert Camus

A lonely Harry wishes on a star on the Eve of Christmas: all he wants is a family to celebrate with. He wakes up on Christmas morning with Draco in his bed and a band of adorable, rambunctious toddlers running amok in his house.

Harry figures something went wrong and he should probably try to fix it. But does he really want to?

[birdsofshore]

SO CUTE. I'm dying.

[dracogotgame.livejournal.com]

Drunk Draco is convinced there's an intruder in the Manor. He can hear thumping and scraping on the roof and there is definitely someone in his chimney. He demands for Auror Potter to come over and investigate on the double.

[birdsofshore]

Oh, gosh, LOL. All your prompts are brilliant.

Christmas Ball at the Manor, Draco bringing Harry home to meet his parents for the first time, awkwardness and exploding ham.

[lilyeyes.livejournal.com]

SS/HP - Harry has finally gotten up the courage to ask Severus Snape to the Ministry's Winter Ball, only to find Draco Malfoy has also asked him. How can Harry convince Severus to go with him?

[lilyeyes.livejournal.com]

SS/HP - Back for his eighth year, Harry is withdrawn and by himself as his friends have all paired up and gone home for the holidays. Headmaster Snape is determined to bring Harry out of his 'sulk'.

[lilyeyes.livejournal.com]

Snarry or Gen - Caught by a storm, Severus finds himself trapped with a sick Harry Potter and must take care of him.

[lilyeyes.livejournal.com]

SS/HP - Celebrating Yule/Christmas with a 3 year old (Teddy or child of their own).

[birdsofshore]

Harry/ Draco. Harry opens the door on Christmas Eve to find a pissed-off, naked, gift-wrapped Draco Malfoy on his front step in the snow. How he got there, and what happens next, is up to you (although snark and sexy times would be much appreciated).

[dracogotgame.livejournal.com]

Mehehehehehe! I would read the ever lovin' crap out of this XD

[birdsofshore]

Draco/Albus Severus. Albus has to stay at Hogwarts over Christmas to catch up on schoolwork. Professor Malfoy gives him a helping hand. *cough* With his schoolwork.

Likes: Either predatory!Draco, or seductive!Albus. I like the wrongness of the relationship to be part of the appeal. I like the fact that Harry would be horrified if he knew (maybe he finds out?). Go darker rather than fluffy if you like. (but see below)
Dislikes: Underage Albus (no under 16), non-con

[gracerene]

Um, yes. Absolutely this.

[birdsofshore]

Harry/Draco. What do you buy for the man who has everything? I'd like to see a frantic, smitten Harry trying to get the perfect gift for a spoiled Draco. Up to you whether it's their first Christmas together or whether Harry is trying to woo Draco.

[amorette.livejournal.com]

So sweet! Would love to read this!!

[birdsofshore]

Harry/Draco. Christmas can be stressful when you're divorced and trying to be grown up for the sake of the children. Especially at big family parties when your childhood nemesis just happens to be there looking absolutely mouth-wateringly fuckable. And you're drunk. And he seems to be interested, and your study is just over there, and surely no-one would notice if you both slipped away for half an hour or so?

Feel free to use another location other than the study if it works better, of course. It would be great to have H/D in their 40s for this one.

I'm wishing for someone to claim and write this SO HARD! ♡♥♡

[lrthunder.livejournal.com]

Draco/Hermione: Hermione promises time to have sex, if he promises to go Christmas caroling with her.

[lrthunder.livejournal.com]

Harry/Hermione: They wait until the kids are asleep before giving each other their real presents.

[capitu]

James/Scorpius

Their first Christmas together. :D

[kitty_fic]

Auror!Harry gets hurt in the field. When he finally wakes up in the hospital, it seems like a Christmas miracle.

His family is there to greet and comfort him. The problem is he doesn't remember being married to Draco Malfoy or having children with him.

It doesn't take him long to fall in love with his kids all over again, and he really wants to try and make this work for them, despite his memory loss, but he's not so sure what he thinks about the idea of being married to his childhood nemesis, Draco.

James/Sirius

Sixth or Seventh year, James & Sirius are at James' house over Christmas break. There is a huge snowstorm while his parents are at a Christmas party and they get snowed in. Leaving James and Sirius all alone together.

Bed-sharing, breaking into the liquor cabinet, cuddling by the fire, drunk!sex are all excellent possibilities :)

[amorette.livejournal.com]

Eeeeeeeee!!! Brilliant!

[gracerene]

James Sirius/Teddy

New Year's Kiss at the Burrow Christmas party. Could be established relationship, or finally admitting their feelings for one another. Bonus points if things escalate past the kiss (though maybe not in front of their families...) ;)

[nearlyconscious.livejournal.com]

Another year, another Ministry Solstice Ball. Daphne is bored. Hermione is desperately trying to escape some tedious colleagues. They get tipsy together in a corner.

(Feel free to use other characters)

[delphipsmith]

This one has some interesting potential!

[gracerene]

Charlie/Harry

Christmas night. Charlie has a few private gifts to give Harry.

Up to you exactly what these sexy gifts may be, though restraints, vibrators, dildos, blindfolds, flavored lube etc. are all awesome possibilities. And obviously, the boys would need to test them out. ;)

[amorette.livejournal.com]

Hot!

[nearlyconscious.livejournal.com]

It's Christmas. Bellatrix, Narcissa and Andromeda receive presents from their parents: Black heirlooms.

(have fun with the age they're supposed to have, the nature of the heirlooms, the tone of the fic -- could be darkish or humorous, whatevs!)

[amorette.livejournal.com]

Oooooo O_O
