H/D Kink/Squick List

[nursedarry]

Updated 2011

What I DO like:
• Hogwarts Era - young-ish (6th, 7th or 8th year) or AU (non-magic or magic) or EWE. I do like epi compliant H/D AS/S fic. And I don’t mind established relationship if it's engagement or wedding!fic.
• First–time – and I MEAN first time - I don’t wanna hear about any girly bits they’ve seen or touched. Het kissing is okay, but no real experience beyond that. If EWE, references to past slash relationship is okay (kinda), but nothing graphic
• Addressing each other by SURNAME. (Exception: see below)
• Madam Hooch to be in it somewhere.
• A somewhat volatile relationship (but with the occasional unexpected display of affection/compassion/tenderness/possessiveness)
• Romance, flangst, hurt/comfort, crack, occasional emo, occasional dub-con
• R or NC17
• Switching!!! OMG YES!
• Accidental bondage/bonding/forced to be together
• Bottoming from the top
• Tonnes of kissing (on the mouth or other body parts aside from see below)
• Happy ending
• Harry's glasses
• Hair nuzzling/pulling
• Drinking games
• Parseltongue, if appropriate to fic
• Scars - reference to them, touching them, etc.
• Quidditch references/games/sex under the stands/ anything Quidditch-related.
• The girls being just as devious/randy as the boys (don’t care if it’s with each other or other boys). Reference to femmeslash is fine.
• Harder-core kinks: use only if appropriate or wanted to by author – object insertion (doesn't have to be toys), spanking, mpreg, aresplay, tonnes of fingering
• Homosexuality is no big deal in the Wizarding world (or at least no one is freaking out about a preference for boys. They’re freaking out over the fact that it’s H & D together).
• Spending the night together secretly (or not so secretly) in the dorm. No convenient RoR.
• Being caught snogging or overheard moaning and groaning- anything more is a little cringe-worthy to me, unless it’s implied (e.g. climbing out of the other’s bed). Caught by teacher.


What I DON’T like:
Vocabulary that I don’t like-
• “Claiming” (anything - body parts, a person)
• “Capturing” (anything - lips, etc)
• “Battling tongues”
• “Raking” eyes
• “Marking”
• “Raven-haired” (I don’t mind “blond”)
• “Thrumming”
• “Laving”
• “Debauched”
• “Feathering”
• “Plundering”
• “See something you like?”
• “Come for me”
• “Want you” ("I want you" is fine)
• “Fuck me”
• “Mine”
• Hitching breath
• Any form of the word “crush”
• Americanisms
• “Top/Topping, Bottom/Bottoming” used as verbs or nouns by the characters (eg. “Are you a top?” I just don’t see them using those definitions. I can hear “I like being on top/bottom.”)
• Any terms of endearment, EXCEPT “Baby”. I love that, but it’s not really them, I know!
• Possessive gestures (saying “mine”) BUT, I love completely unexpected jealous behaviour - like when Harry goes charging over the table at Blaise or someone and everyone is thinking “Wass that all about…hmmmm….?”
• Character(s) described as “his lover” or “his boyfriend” by the author. Characters themselves can refer to each other that way “Well…you might as well know; we’re kinda…er…lovers/boyfriends/etc.”
• Please, no “screaming” orgasms.

Actions/things I don’t like
• Self-prep
• Cheek cupping (of the face – I hate that; cupping the arse cheeks is fine!)
• Stroking faces/jaw lines/cheekbones/etc. (Grabbing someone by the face/hair and kissing them is okay, though, as is running hands up and down arms - that’s yummy.)
• Ridiculous amounts of kissing necks, collar bones, etc. (see above).
• Long hair (well, no longer than in GoF- for either of them)
• Calling each other by first name (except maybe during the odd orgasm)
• Epilogue compliant unless there's AS/S in it :)
• Infidelity
• Break-up-make-up fics. I don't mind a drunk shag and denial with a happy ending, but no established relationship before the fic starts or for too long into the fic. For me, it's all about UST and getting together.
• No boxer shorts when they're at school. (If it’s mentioned, just say “pants” or “underwear” – in my universe they’re either gonna be plain old M&S Y-fronts (briefs) or those boxer-brief things that Fox Mulder immortalised - but somehow I don’t see either of them in those at that age.)
• Leather anything/Muggle dance clubs/make-up/cross-dressing, etc. (unless it's Fifi!)
