Help with examples of Dramione tags

Help with examples of Dramione tags

Hi again!! 🤍 I promise I won't ask for any more help for a month, but just one last thing...

I’ve been working on a fanfic database for a week now (I’m currently focusing mostly on Dramione because those are my favorite stories), and I think it’s turning out pretty well 🥹. I include chapters, status, links to the original work and translations (if available), synopsis...

The only thing left to add is the most important part: the tags. It’s the best way to filter the works, but I’m TERRIBLE at remembering the names of tropes. And on AO3, many authors use custom tags instead of “standard” ones

I’d like to ask for your help in listing all the tags/clichés/tropes you can think of so I can continue with my project 🥹

Here’s a list of the ones I’ve jotted down so far:

Thank you!! ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

romance in the Hogwarts era (any year) with angst and slow burn

I need help 🆘 I’ve searched and searched and searched, but I can’t find a fanfic set at Hogwarts that gives me what “Post-War” and “Voldemort Wins” have given me. I’m stuck living off TikTok edits, and I need more than 20 seconds of story.

Here’s my super-specific request:

- Enemies-to-lovers, because I ended up here for the drama; otherwise, I would’ve chosen Ron.

- I want it to take place at Hogwarts; I don’t care if it’s 6th, 7th, 8th year, or a complete rewrite where they start liking each other earlier (at the 4th-year dance would be nice *wink, wink*). It can also be flashbacks.

- Angst (let them fight, let Draco be battling his demons, let Draco kiss Pansy, let Bellatrix do what she does... I want to tear my hair out)

- Secret relationship 🫦

- Forced proximity

- Slow burn

- It doesn’t have to be super spicy, but at least a climax to their mutual desire. I don’t want a story that’s too juvenile.

I’m looking for that kind of somewhat sad school atmosphere from the Half-Blood Prince movie, with them ending up together.

I have a strong stomach, so if your recommendation is very dark, I don’t mind—just give it to me.

I’ll say again that I can’t seem to find anything like this, but examples similar to what I’m looking for would be:

- Isolation by Bexchan (chef’s kiss)

- The Bracelet by Akashathekitty: it was one of the first fanfics I read many years ago; it basically had everything I mentioned, but from the middle on it lost quality, and personally, I can’t stand Hermione’s personality in this story.

That said, I leave it up to your wisdom.

I implore your help.

check out the vaults

Hi!!

I’m totally new to Obsidian (literally less than 24 hours in). I’d heard about the app before and thought it sounded amazing, but I only knew it for its mind maps.

I decided to give it a try to create a database for my fanfics 🤭 because it seemed like the easiest option, but I’m (almost) a historian and wanted to use the program to organize information for my thesis.

I’ve already seen that many historians have shared how they use Obsidian, and I’M OBSESSED.

But getting to the point: are there people who share their vaults? Like blogs or Substack. I think that if you focus on a specific topic like a historical period, an author’s works, music, etc., you can create something amazing, and I’d love to be able to read those kinds of vaults. The problem is that I have no idea where to look—I don’t know if there’s a forum where they’re posted or where to even start.

I’d really appreciate your recommendations and advice!!
