Summary:
"Der er to tusind klagesager mod politiet hvert år. Vi vinder dem allesammen. Er det fordi vi aldrig begår fejl eller fordi vi beskytter hinanden?"
- Carl Mørck, Journal 64

Når Assad bliver anholdt uden gyldigt grundlag, og i processen bliver outet for hele Danmark, må han finde ud af, hvordan han skal forene begge sider af sit liv. Det gør det ikke nemmere, at den mand han er brændende forelsket i, også er hans chef: uopnåelige Carl Mørck.

Carl vil gøre alt for at redde Assads karriere - og for at få de skyldige ned med nakken. Det bliver startskuddet på en følelsesmæssig opdagelsesrejse for Carl, og endnu et led i det opgør han har med sig selv. For når der er så meget galt med ham, hvordan kan han i det hele taget gøre sig fortjent til Assad?

longest thing I ever wrote, and it is, finally, finished!!! I have been working on this for OVER A YEAR. I got the idea back in October 2023 but I was working on a different fic at the time, and then there was Yuletide, so I didn't start writing until January 2024. I did start posting chapters on AO3 on April 20th 2024 and I was determined to finish this fic before or on that date - and well, today is April 20th 2025, and I put the final touches on the last two chapters and did several rounds of edits, and now the chapters are up and posted and I am DONE. FINISHED.

Sign ups for next year's [community profile] getyourwordsout are gearing up and I'm thinking about my writing plans and life and general things, as one does, this time of year. I'm at 28 days of writing this year so far (I had signed up for the 120 day pledge again) which is, well, very little. I'm going to sign up for the 120 day pledge again for 2023 as I'm getting back into a habit of writing semi-regularly again now that I've been writing fic again and I also have a yuletide assignment, and I've got a couple of novel wips I would really like to get back to working on properly.

But anyway, one of the mods reminded me that last year I actually made 72% of my 120 day pledge which I had completely forgotten about (for some reason I thought that least year was much the same as this in terms of output) and I think my mistake was looking at what I'd posted to AO3 and not at what I'd actually written, because, uh, I have a lot of unfinished wips knocking about. which is what this post is about!

This is a collection of wips I'm never going to finish.

I'm putting them here so that I can put them out of my mind, for good, and because while I'm never going to finish them that doesn't mean the time I spent writing them was wasted, or that they're not good, or that I don't like them. I have just made the decision to abandon them because I can't keep wasting energy fretting about all the stories I want to write and finish, because realistically that's not going to happen.

Some of these wips are 5+ years old, some of them only a couple of months. Some are thousands of words long, some only a few hundred. some are original works, some are fanfics. There is no 'crown jewel' in this collection. The wips are complete in the sense that everything is included; every note to self, half formed sentences and abrupt/disconnected scenes, vague plot outlines, and so on. I haven't tinkered with any of these even to correct a typo, this is just copy pasted wholesale from my files.

I'm on the bus to Helsinki right now (and have thus been travelling for almost four hours already), and have been spending the time wisely. :p but before I get to the [livejournal.com profile] hd_erised recs:


[img: notebook paper with "GYWO 2017" printed in large black letters with a blue
shadow. under that, "writing decathlon" in handwritten black letters with an
orange shadow. printed at the bottom in black is "sign up dec. 14 - jan. 15"]

The other day I put in my pledge to write 200k next year. I've been doing gywo since 2012, always the 150k pledge, and have actually yet to make it... I came closest in 2012, with 130k words, and this year (at 90k) is the most I've written in a year since then. I wanted a bigger push and a daily writing goal that was about 500 words or more, and given how many things I'm writing atm (a novel and a bunch of novellas), 200k seems like the right challenge to push me to get it all done. So here's to 2017! *raises metaphorical glass*

Title: Spelling It Out
Artist: Anonymous
Recipient:[livejournal.com profile] marysiakPairing(s): Harry/Draco
Rating: PG
Art Medium: Digital/Photoshop
Summary: Harry charms Draco.
Artist's Notes: Apologies for the puns.
Why you should look at this: This is really pretty and really lovely to boot. I love the colour scheme (and the pink of the spell!) and perspective, and how they look like they're about to float off into euphoria.

A Ghost in the Garden (27175 words) by Anonymous
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Relationships: Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter
Characters: Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Pansy Parkinson, Millicent Bulstrode, Gregory Goyle, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Charlie Weasley, Cormac McLaggen, Dean Thomas
Additional Tags: Aurors, Auror Partners, casefic, Pining, Awkward Bed Sharing, Sexual Tension, Snark, society shenanigans, Dragons, Alcohol Abuse, Mentions of Violence, Community: hd_erised, Ghosts
Summary: That night Draco dreams, and he is the ghost in his garden. He is both silvered figment and his own solid and flesh face pressing against the window, watching. Spinning and spun, haunting and haunted. Turned and turning, an open mouth with no sound.

 Harry and Draco are thrown together on an investigation into a sinister political movement.

Why you should read this: This was kind of hauntingly beautiful? I remember I stayed up to finish it and then because I couldn't find words to comment on it just then, left it till morning and then made a halfassed job of it. It's really, really lovely, in a melancholic and almost poetic way. I loved how draco's alcoholism was portrayed (very subtle), and how he and Harry came together in an imperfect way. Very good read. Not really fluffy, but it's not a terribly angsty fic either, in my opinion.

Bound To You (28133 words) by Anonymous
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Relationships: Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter
Characters: Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy
Additional Tags: Accidental Bonding, Cursed Bonding, Curse Breaker Draco Malfoy, Cartographer Harry Potter, unusual careers, lots of sass, Mild Angst, Pining, Slow Burn, Community: hd_erised
Summary: Hag magic is capricious and unruly, and Harry and Draco are bound to stay by each other’s side until they can solve the riddle. In between long car trips, misty rain, and midnight star charts, they begin to understand each other.
Why you should read this: Curse fic! I love cursefics tbh, and while accidental bonding isn't my thing, I thought this was really great, and well done too. Surprise!godric/salazar, though I'm not going to spoil how that comes into play. It was brilliant. I also really loved the magic in this fic, and Harry as a cartographer. It's oddly fitting. (Also I'll never tire of Cursebreaker!draco.)
