And on that note, more holiday fic recs! This time: the non-snarry edition! Various ships (and even a few gen fics) to get you into the holiday spirit! There's silliness and sadness and even some sexiness. Plenty of goodness to choose from!
12 main recs, and a bonus fic (for reasons you'll see at the end!)
by carpermermaid. Linny. Rated G. Family fluff.
Out of all of their traditions, Ginny always thought this one was the strangest, because wrapping presents at the Burrow is always a struggle.
by Cunegonde. Snupin. Rated T. 10k. Fluff & angst.
It’s the first Winter Solstice after the war, and there’s more than one Scrooge spoiling the festive atmosphere. Yup, it’s a Christmas Carol parody fic, because one can never have too many, right?
by fangqueen. Starbucks. Rated M. 1k. Unrequited love. Hurt/comfort. Grief/mourning.
It was as palpable today as it had been since: the feeling of a profound absence in the room. Sirius could almost see Lily standing there at James' side, looking radiant as ever. What he wouldn't have done for that to be true...
by jadztone. Dreville. Rated E. 26k. Fake dating. Friends to lovers.
Draco needs a boyfriend for Christmas. (of course the reasons are going to be ugly when Lucius is involved) His mother has a rare plant that Neville is desperate to get his hands on. (of course the reasons are going to be altruistic when Neville is involved) The two make a deal to fake a relationship during Christmas at Malfoy Manor. Cue the mistletoe, cuddling, and copious amounts of alcohol to get through the angst.
by Lokifan. Dron. Rated E. 8k.
Ron’s bringing Draco back to the Burrow for Christmas in their eighth year. He wasn’t expecting this particular problem.
written by Lysanatt. Snercy. Rated E. 3k.
When Severus gets his Christmas gift from Lucius it is really a big surprise.
by mersheeple. Snape-centric. Rated T. 1k. Friendship.
Severus Snape was not at the first Order Christmas Party. He refused to even think about the second. Until it was upon him and no one would let him forget.
by shaggydogstail. Wolfstar. Rated T. 12k. Fake dating. Matchmaking. Hijinks & shenanigans.
Sirius likes Remus. Remus likes Sirius. Their friends are supportive. Christmas is coming and romance is in the air. So it should be a simple matter for them to get together, right?
Except that maybe their friends are a bit too supportive and that’s where the trouble started. What with the pretend dating, the mistletoe, the sleigh rides and say, what’s in this drink? Oh, and the fairly extensive gambling ring. It’ll take more than goodwill and glitter to sort this one out.
by Snegurochka. Drarry. Rated E. 29k. Angst, with a happy ending. FWB to lovers.
Draco has been taking his casual relationship with Harry for granted. Visits from four key ghosts the night before Christmas just might shake up his priorities in life.
by swtalmnd. Wolfstar. Rated E. 3k. Mild dubcon. Bondage.
Remus finds a surprise under the Christmas tree.
by wynnebat. Snape & Luna. Rated T. Time travel. Friendship.
Snape is nineteen and a grumpy Death Eater. Luna is twenty-one and an idealistic time traveler. None of these things stop them from becoming friends.
by yrfrndfrnkly. Flonks. Rated T. 10k. Established relationship. Fluff & humor.
Fleur will find the perfect gift for Tonks and win their first Christmas as a couple
BONUS FIC
Because I had to mention this one, and couldn't decide whether it belonged on the Snarry list or the non-Snarry list.
by who_la_hoop. Drapery. Rated E. 6k. Crossdressing. Smut & humor.
When the fairy on top of the tree gets a cold Harry rescues it – with unexpected results, courtesy of one Severus Snape.
