On with the recs! And my rec choice tonight is... FRULIE. It's Celebrate Frulie Day!

Night has fallen, the wind is whistling through the dark and rustling pines. It is the witching hour, when all night dwellers emerge from their dens. It is time for [livejournal.com profile] frulie! Frulie has a knack for writing said night-dwellers into her fics, and a similar ability to coax the reader in, like a vampire seducing her prey. Speaking of vampires, it was Frulie who gave me my first taste of vamp!H/D. So button up your coat, wrap that scarf tightly around the bare skin of your neck, and take a walk in the darkness with the mysterious Frulie.

The Frulie fic walk...

(Again, with the disclaimers. They aren't posted here. Make sure you read them before diving into the fic)

The first nightly visitor will be Amalgam, 21 chapters and counting!

H/D, Hr/R, rated PG-13

Harry and the gang are back at Hogwarts, this time on the other side of the teacher's desks. But there is a new student with a few otherworldy connections... and those connections are on their way to the school at this very moment. This is a fast-paced, action packed fic. The chapters move as quickly as the creatures inhabiting them. The Harry/Draco here is not graphic, but so tender and heartfelt.

...
...

Here is my favorite one: Our Tree

H/D, rated PG-13

For Draco, the punishment for disobeying is swift and merciless. But the idea of walking through life alone is worse. I love this fic. My first vamp! H/D fic, but also a beautiful fic in general. The description here is breathtaking, the voice of the tattoo artist... Wow. And rarely at the conclusion of a fic have I felt such a sense of *sigh* ...everything is going to be alright. ^_^

...
...

Now for a more lighthearted Frulie-creature, One of Your Fathers

H/D, rated PG-13, MPREG

Harry wants to discuss the dreaded c-word with Draco: CHILDREN. This was the first Frulie-fic I came across, long before my lj days... and I was struck by the sweet, loving nature of the conversation here. This is actually a WIP with each chapter being written by a different author, but Frulie started it all. I adore this bout of pillow-talk; every bit of dialogue is something special. The other chapters are a bit hard to find... *psst* Frulie? Can you help me out? *kiss*

...
...

And now, to finish off, a Frulie creation with a tuft of fluff! Traditions

HD, rated PG

Harry's and Draco's ideas of the perfect Christmas just do not mesh. This one is so adorably H/D! I love it. It's like I stepped into a moment of a conversation that has been going on for a while, and will continue to circle around itself long after I have left.

...
...

Frulie of the fangs. Frulie of the fluff. Frulie of the glorious imagery. The best part is, if you are a multi-shipper or if these are not enough to satisfy your thirst, you can have more fun HERE. Among others, Ginny/Tonks, Sirius/Remus, Snarry, even Cedric/Cho... PICK YOUR POISON. FRULIE DELIVERS.

Yay, [livejournal.com profile] frulie!

Everything you listed there is WONDERFUL, and Our Tree is one of those fics that I can't even think about without getting all wibbly. See? Am wibbling.

Hahaha, yay! Glad you liked the recs. I simply adore Our Tree. Almost flipped out when I was having trouble finding it: I couldn't remember the title. But now, all is well. *kisses frulie and Lilo*
