Come Together
Prompt: "I want you" made me think perhaps H is a Beatles girlie cause her parents, and I've never seen Sirius as a Beatles Guy in fic before
Thank you to Beatificbean for this prompt, I really enjoyed piecing this together
“I want you.”
She shrieks, heart in her throat, not just because she’d been sure she was home alone, but because he’s uttering the words that haunt her nightly.
Hermione turns to the doorway and sees Sirius leaning oh-so-casually against the wooden frame, arms crossed as he looks at her. She’s in an ACDC t-shirt of his that she’d stolen from the washing basket and a pair of red jersey shorts. Perfectly acceptable loungewear for baking in the kitchen.
“That’s the song, you’re humming, right? I Want You, by The Beatles? Merlin, Hermione, you’re practically the perfect woman, knowing music like that.”
He laughs and she tries to copy him, but it’s hollow.
Of course he didn’t mean it.
She was more than 20 years his junior. She was the final stray haunting his home; Harry and Ron having moved out and moved on two years earlier. She rattled around the house like a ghost, hardly straying from her bedroom, the kitchen, or the small office they’d transformed into a potions lab for her to mess around in while she figured out what she did next with her life.
Funny how ambition quickly dries up when it’s a reality instead of a child’s dream to survive long enough to live.
“I didn’t know you knew The Beatles,” he continues on, unaware of her internal monologue, stepping towards the oven where she’s finished pouring batter into a loaf tin.
“Don’t you dare stick a finger in there, there’s raw egg! And yes, of course I know The Beatles. My father worshipped them,” she informs him with a wry smile. “Makes me think of home, of learning to bake breads and pastries on Sunday afternoons with him. Mum was useless at the sweet stuff, but Dad was a whizz at baking, you know. Ironic, given his professional quest to save every tooth he met. He’d stick a cassette in and-”
The tears overwhelm her and he pulls her in for a hug. It doesn’t soothe her like he intends, just twists the knife of loneliness harder, but she swallows it all down, pushes and pushes until she doesn’t feel it anymore.
“I have the vinyl in my room, if you want to listen over banana loaf and chai?” he offers.
The only way he knows how to offer comfort is through company and hot drinks. It’s kind of adorable, though she’d never tell him as much.
Forty minutes later, she’s at his bedroom door with chai and a plate with sliced banana loaf, hovering, knows crossing this threshold changes nothing - it’s Sirius, the man who sees her as his ward - but nonetheless the trepidation tangles in her tummy.
The door opens and he’s lounging on his bed, vinyl cover in hand, patting the mattress beside him.
The opening chords of Come Together fill the room. She perches on the edge, pushes a plate in his direction, and busies her hands with her own.
“Did you add cinnamon?”
She nods, not meeting his gaze.
He hums.
“My favourite.”
She knows.
They listen to the entire album in silence, only moving to turn the disk over in its player. She lets the songs surround her in a nostalgic blanket, wistful for the easy, breezy carelessness of childhood.
“Oh darling,” Sirius breaks the silence when the final song ends and the record player clicks off.
She peers up at him, questioning.
“My favourite song on the album is probably Oh! Darling.”
She smiles, it’s weak and thin but that’s as sincere as she can muster. Wishes those words meant something more.
“Because is mine. You know it’s inspired by Moonlight Sonata? The complexity of the harmonies is unbelievable, it’s so layered. And yet, the sound is almost deceptively simple. A real conundrum of a track.”
His mouth twists, not a smile or a grimace, but something pained nonetheless.
“I was sure you’d say Here Comes the Sun,” he murmurs. When she quirks a sardonic brow he grins fully. “Y’know, because you’re so hopeful and full of light. Always looking for the silver lining.”
She’s not sure she is, but she takes the mischaracterisation as a compliment with a snicker.
“Sure, Sirius, whatever you say.”
A beat.
“I best go clear up my mess,” she says, moving to stand.
“I Want You.”
“What about it?” she asks, stacking empty plates and mugs.
“I’m serious.”
She blinks, confused and feeling as though he’s making fun of her. The vulnerability rolls her shoulders in anticipatory defense.
“Hermione. I want you. It would be a literal crime to let you walk out of this room now I finally have you in it. Wearing my fucking clothes, no less.”
She must surely have entered an alternate dimension. Or she’s having a stroke. Because there’s no way in hell this is actually happening.
His tattooed hand shoots out to grab her wrist, pulls on it, forcing her to look him in the eye.
What she sees knocks the wind out of her.
His expression is open, vulnerable, eyes gleaming. Hermione is baffled, completely unprepared.
“Unless, of course, you’re not interested. And- well, why would you be. Ignore me darli- Hermione. Just, forget it. Call it a senior moment, let me get the door for you.”
He leaps from the bed, jostling her as he passes, opens the door, head bowed.
“You- you want me? Seriously?”
“I’m always Sirius.”
“I will smack you, Sirius Black.”
He chuckles but it quickly morphs into a weary sigh.
“You don’t understand how incredible you look when you’re lost in the music, Hermione. Transcendental. You’re a vision. I mean, you always are. But you’re sitting there in my fucking t-shirt, listening to my favourite album, and you have this dreamy little grin. You’re hardly in the room, but it doesn’t matter. You’re comfortable enough to let yourself fully feel the music around me. And that’s no small thing. I know it isn’t. So, yes, I’m struck by an epiphany listening to my favourite band with my favourite witch who’s added my favourite spice to my favourite fruit loaf. Is it really so surprising?”
She laughs and it’s melodic. She’s euphoric.
“Yes, you dolt. It’s utterly baffling. Completely bewildering. Now kiss me.”
And he does.

Harry Potter Rec Fest Day 14 - Favorite Series
I have a lot of series bookmarked, but due to time constraints, I often default to shorter stories. There are a few series that I devoured though and I'm grateful for @hprecfest for reminding me to rec them. All of them have excellent podfic versions too!
Do It All Over Again by @dracowillhearaboutthis (Podfic read by @sandstripe)
Pairing: Draco x Harry
Word count: 468,229
Length: 34:34:15
Rating: E
This is a canon rewrite beginning before first year, when 11 year old Draco receives a letter from his future self. I found it to be well thought out and developed Draco's character in an interesting way.
As for the podfic, the narrator themself states in the notes that the read fast, and they absolutely do. But they speak clearly, recording quality is good, there's no bumps or breathing or other unnecessary sounds, and if you slow it down to 75 or 80 %, I find it to be totally listenable. I honestly don't know how they speak so quickly, it's superhuman!
The Mirror of Ecidyrue by starbrigid (Podfic of the first 4.5 books on Spotify by starseeker)
Pairing: Draco x Harry
Word count: 1,219,490
Length: long
Rating: T to eventually E
This is also a canon rewrite, but with Draco going unwillingly back in time. He doesn't immediately become buddy-buddy with Harry; it's actually Hermione who befriends him. There's funny and angsty and really thoughtful canon adherence and divergence. I haven't finished the series yet, but I've enjoyed it so much. Starseeker reads it very beautifully and still updates sporadically (believe me, I know what a massive undertaking it is to record a series like this of 1.2 million words!), so I'm kind of holding out hope that they'll finish and I'll be able to listen to the rest. They're currently abut halfway through book 5.
************************************************************************
A couple of self-recs for @etl-echo-audiobooks, not for my own recordings ...
Rights and Wrongs series by @lovesbitca8
Podfic read by @beatificbean (with @etl-echo-audiobooks)
Pairing: Draco x Hermione
Word count: 698,707
Length: over 50 hours
Rating: E
Pick your poison based on your mood:
A little angst but mostly fluff: The Right Thing to Do (Hermione's POV)
A lot of angst and redemption: All the Wrong Things (Draco's POV)
Dark, Voldy wins alternate universe: The Auction
@beatificbean reads all three of these stories beautifully (not a surprise). I love a Draco redemption, so all three of these stories hit the spot for me. Mind the tags for The Auction.
Wait and Hope series by @mightbewriting
Podfic read by @beatificbean (with @etl-echo-audiobooks)
Pairing: Draco x Hermione, Theo x Blaise, Pansy x Neville
Word count: 389,063
Length: over 35 hours
Rating: E
@heyjude19-writing already said everything I would say about this series, and much more eloquently (obviously). I'll just add that I almost used this rec for both Comfort fics and Fics that make you cry (porque no los dos?), and that @beatificbean does a beautiful job with this series as well. She just cranks out the top-tier drama and romance; I aspire to someday be so prolific and talented. I mean, she recorded over ONE MILLION words just for these two recs, and there's lots more where that came from.

january-march reads: dramione
to curb my fic reading addictions, I tried listening to podfic instead of reading it. It works (?):
Remain Nameless by HeyJude19 - a Podfic by Beatificbean, ETL_Echo_Audiobooks for HeyJude19
The monotony of Draco’s daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence.
Yet I still read the text version instead, lol. Here are some dramione I finished in the past three months. Personal favorite are marked with:
(Restricted) Good Luck Kisses by Musyc | T, 8.4k words | A good luck kiss for a Quidditch captain - it's ridiculous. It can't actually work. But it does. Every time.
(Restricted) Three Steps Forward, One Step Back by Musyc | M, 5k words | When tracing a relationship step by step, sometimes they move forward, sometimes they fall back. In the end, they find they can move in step. The tracing of a relationship in fifteen short vignettes.
✿(Restricted) Seven for a Secret by Musyc | E, 21k words | Draco celebrated Beltane with a woman whose face he never saw. Eight years later, he meets a little boy whose face is a match for his.
✿Bus Stop by MarmaladeFever | T, 15k words, on ffn.net | Every morning, Draco and Hermione meet at the bus stop. A romance revolving around an umbrella
✿In Reverse by ToEatAPeach | T, 8k words | "Your hair," he says, without looking at her. "It's enormous, you know." A few silent seconds pass, before Hermione makes a happy sort of sob. "Your chin is too sharp," she whispers. "We grew into them." "We certainly did." Suddenly, her perfect mouth is on his, and he realizes that maybe he hasn't ruined anything after all. A love story, in reverse

Man, it's been awhile. But I'm back with a new two-shot A/B/O PWP (ok with a sprinkle of plot, sue me) courtesy of @beatificbean and @aneiria-writes for inspo and beta-work, respectively. Thank you so much to both of you, this fic wouldn't be here if it weren't for you and your support and friendship! <3
Hermione had always relied on her Omega. She'd never felt weaker for her Omega instincts or her personal desires, and often they were one and the same.
Draco was tired of being an Alpha. Everyone assumed he loved it. Everyone assumed a lot about him.
Hermione is out on a pre-heat shopping trip when her scent blocking potions rub off, enticing miscreant Alphas to attack her. When Draco Malfoy saves her, Hermione trusts her Omega as she decides she wants Draco for their mate.
Despite also being drawn to her, Draco isn't sure he can trust his Alpha or her Omega to make rational decisions rather than instinct-led poor choices. Still, he can't help but offer himself to her during her rapidly incoming heat.

Hello hello!
I’ve been mulling over this for a while and have created a three tiered patreon where I’ll be sharing public domain work, guided mediations, asmr recordings, and anything else we decide (except fanfic, never fanfic).
The first tier, Baby Beans, gets twice a month content updates and access to an exclusive discord server.
Baby Demons get more frequent updates, potentially daily, and the discord server.
The Queen Beans get all of that plus, a recording of their choosing each month, and a personalized letter

Harry Potter Rec Fest Day 2 - A comfort fic
This @hprecfest prompt was difficult for me because HP fanfic is all comfort fics for me. No matter how angsty, how dead dove, it's all comfort food. So I interpreted this prompt as fics that I go back to again and again.
EVERYTHING by GallaPlacidia
Pairing: Draco x Harry
GallaPlacidia has such a way of writing, particularly for Draco's voice. She also has an economy of prose that makes just about every line elicit either a laugh or an emotional "ooof". She took down all her work when she published a beautiful book last year, but it's still available if you search around (I know there's a reddit post dedicated to it). I recommend starting with either "Dad Says" or "The Bucket List" but don't stop until you've devoured them all.
BONUS: She also recorded many of them for a podcast. Her versions have also been taken down, but she has said she has no objection to them being shared around and they're easy to find with a little googling. She's so good at narrating them that I was seriously bummed that she didn't record her novel as well. I definitely think her recordings heavily influenced my Draco voice.
Remain Nameless written by @heyjude19-writing and podficced by @beatificbean and @etl-echo-audiobooks
Pairing: Draco x Hermione
Word count: 312,286
Length: over 24 hours
Rating: E
Two HeyJude recs in two days. Sorry not sorry! I don't know if Jude considers this a magnum opus, but it's massive and has incredible character study and development and really languishes in the enemies to lovers pipeline (in a good way!). It's angsty but not too angsty, which is why it qualifies as comfort for me. It's also translated into about 6 different languages, so if you're learning Italian on Duolingo, challenge yourself with a novel length Dramione.
The audiobook version narrated by @beatificbean is *chef's kiss*. It's also available to listen to on Spotify! It was my intro to the ETL-Echo universe and she is so good at Hermione and especially at reading really hot smut. If you've got a long road trip coming up, this is the perfect accompaniment. She has also recorded some outtakes and one-shots in the same universe: "Ceremonials" (AO3, Spotify).
************************************************************************
And finally, my two little self-recs ...
wasps and honey by @swoontodeath - a Podfic
Pairing: Narcissa x Hermione
Word count: 10,305
Length: 1:12:12
Rating: M
This was the first Cissmione I ever read. I recorded it for @hp-bodiceripper but it's got a great cottagecore vibe too. @swoontodeath's Narcissa is so lovely and complex and her internal monologue as she gets to know Hermione is wonderful. Also available on Spotify on the @etl-echo-audiobooks one-shot feed.
Sesame Seeds and the Entire Spectrum of Human Emotion by @ronbinary- a Podfic
Pairing: Draco x Harry
Word count: 9528
Length: 1:03:07
Rating: M
This was also recorded for a fest. @lcdrarry is so much fun; it's really fascinating to see the way the authors fit HP characters into other movie plots. @ronbinary wrote an adorable take on "The Proposal" for @lcdrarry 2021 and I recorded it for the 2023 fest. This perfect little romcom features fake dating, sharing a bed, adorable Molly Weasley meddling, and a lot of time on a boat. Also available on Spotify on the @etl-echo-audiobooks one-shot feed.

I’m new to discover your amazing work, so apologies if this is well established and I just haven’t figured it out yet. I see your one shot Google Form for shorts, do you take requests for longer fics? If so, is there any other qualities that it needs to meet to be considered (besides no WIPs)? Thanks so much!
Hello! We like one-shots for their ease!
Longer multi-chap stories take dozens of hours to record, edit, quality control, and then upload.
The team typically decides together, and our narrators read what they like. So there's no harm in adding the multi-chap to the request form, but it's not likely it will be done.
Most of our narrators prefer shorter stories as it's easier and less overwhelming. @beatificbean specifically does not want to record anything over 100K anymore.
We hope you understand!

Hello,
I absolutely adore your work! Do you have a patreon or other website where I could donate to your narrators? I would love to give back to your team. I’ve listened to all your Dramione audiobooks and it has been such a joy. I went through a rough year and ETL Echo helped me so much.
Thank you so much for all that you do.
Thank you so much for listening! Sorry your year has been rough <3 you're definitely not alone<3
ETL Echo itself does not have a patreon as fanfiction should not be monetized. Why should we make money when our obscenely talented authors do not?
However, @beatificbean has a patreon where she records public domain work.
If that is something you're interested in you can follow this link here!
Thanks again for listening!

I recently discovered your podfics and am blown away by the quality. The narrator in the Way We Go Down is absolutely perfect. I was wondering if you would be open to a conversation about the creation process and their journey as a fan. I'm a grad student and am doing a project on podfic creators and listeners. I've been an avid fanfic reader for most of my life but only just found out about podfics and am so inspired. I'd love to chat and learn more!
Hello! WDWG was recorded by @cailynwrites!
We recommend reaching out to her there! Our author narrators handles are @/nelipotluna @/bear_hug (on IG), and @beatificbean
