We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects. --Herman Melville
The Dramione Remix is a prompt claiming fest and the concept is very simple: Participants choose from a list of famous couples from history, mythology, literature, movies, television etc. and remix the original couple’s story—choosing whatever elements of the original story they find inspiring—to create a brand new Dramione fic or art!
For example, if you chose Romeo & Juliet as your original couple, your “remix,” might be to write about (or draw, paint, comic, etc.)how Hermione & Draco are lovers from feuding families. Alternately, you might just write a dark!fic where both of them die in the end. Or perhaps you want to take your inspiration from another part of the story and write them as the owners of the apothecary from which the fatal poison was purchased! It’s up to you! You choose your prompt and you interpret it however you wish.

My Ghost - Glass Pear How can I love, without grace? Shine a light on your face, if you’re real then show me now, who you are.
Runaway - Mat Kearney Nobody knows the trouble we’ve seen. Nobody knows the price of this dream. And nobody knows what it took to believe.
Only You - Ellie Goulding Only you can be, the aching in my heart, my enemy, the only animal I couldn’t fight, you hold me in the dark when storms arrive.
Your Surrender - Neon Trees How long till your surrender to me? I’ve become your shadow, I love, but don’t know how to, I’m always lost for words.
We Found Each Other in the Dark - City and Colour We found each other in the dark, like beasts, out in the wilderness. We are fighting to survive and convalesce.
Stubborn Love - The Lumineers It’s better to feel pain, than nothing at all. The opposite of love’s indifference. Pay attention now, I’m standing on your porch screaming out.
Only If For A Night - Florence and the Machine And the only solution was to stand and fight, and my body was loose and I was set alight. But she came over me like some holy rite.
Static Waves - Andrew Belle The static waves across the screen define this notion, back and forth and in between like my emotion, and I know you’re never gonna understand.

“the night was all you had, you ran into the night from all you had. found yourself a path upon the ground, you ran into the night you can’t be found, but this is your heart, can you feel it? pumps through your veins, can you feel it?”
“Life is quick. Everything is fleeting. All we have in life are moments, Granger. You have to learn when to hold on and when to let go.”
“Do you know when to?”
He shrugs a shoulder, reaching out a finger under the hem of her shirt to graze the skin of her hip. “I don’t know. I do what I think is best for my life and I hope it works.”
“And if it doesn’t?”
“There’s the fallout. And life starts all over again — just in a different way.”
If you didn’t get a chance before, now you have a second chance!
Here is the concept: Take any famous couple from history, mythology, literature, folklore, legend, film, etc. and “remix” whatever elements of their original story that inspires you with Draco and Hermione to create a fic or fan art. This year, there is an added Christmas theme!

every time there is a post about feltson in the dramione tag I want to respond with “and what does this have to do with dramione?” but I hold back.
#so annoying #I DON’T SHIP FELTSON #shipping real people creeps me out #i stick to fictional ones #and characters are not the same as the actors that play them #so get a brain and figure it the fuck out #okay #thanks
Heavy Lies the Crown- For seven years, Draco has carried the weight of the world on his shoulders, and just when he thinks he’ll be released, something happens that will make him seek help from the last person he could have imagined.
