She's Awesome

eevilalice's 2011 Deflower Draco Fest (deflower_draco) had two simple rules: all stories had to be het and Draco Malfoy had to be a virgin. It was created to address the common trope in het Draco fic which put Draco Malfoy, the male character, as an all-knowing sex god, and commonly cast his female counterpart as the stereotypical blushing virgin. I think we can all see the hand of the patriarchy at work, yes?

Story #1: That One Fic Where Hermione Worries About Her Career and Ends Up Shagging Draco On the Side.

Amateur Cartography (20995 words) | Teen | by worksofstone
Relationships: Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter/Ginny Weasley
Characters: Hermione Granger, Draco Malfoy, Ginny Weasley, Ron Weasley, Harry Potter, Andromeda Black, Teddy Lupin
Summary: That one-night stand with Draco Malfoy was a mistake. Hermione doesn't make mistakes, or at least she isn't supposed to. She's working hard at her Ministry career, however frustrating and pointless her job may be, and she's also got to live up to everyone's expectations as Hogwarts's most famous Muggle-born and a top-tier War Hero. So, why is she still sleeping with Draco Malfoy, ex-Death Eater and infamous pureblood? And why isn't she certain that she wants to stop?

Side Note: There's a tiny shout-out to my one of my favorite headcanons, Future House-husband!Draco, at the very end of the fic. :)

Story #2: That One Fic Where Draco Is A Ball of Nerves and Lust, Due to Know-It-All Sex Goddess Hermione

On the Perils of Free Advice (16474 words) | Explicit | by worksofstone
Relationships: Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy
Characters: Draco Malfoy, Hermione Granger, Anthony Goldstein, Blaise Zabini
Summary: Draco's stuck working as a sex-advice columnist after the Ministry impounded both his family's money and Malfoy Manor. He traded on his sex god reputation at Hogwarts in order to get the job, but there are a few small problems: he's a virgin, and he also has no idea what he's talking about.

When Hermione Granger arrives at his office, irate at the poor quality of his advice, Draco finds himself blackmailed into letting her instruct him on the proper way to give sex advice. She apparently gets up to some pretty creative sexual practices in her spare time, but she's also an irritating, intrusive know-it-all. Draco should be chomping at the bit to get rid of her, so why is he fantasizing about her all the time?
