Just finished A Little Case of You by roxiewrites the other day, and I'm still thinking about it nonstop. It's so well-written, angsty, and satisfying. I loved watching both HG and DM grow to be well-functioning people after such a rough start. Ugh!!! SO good. #Dramione #Fanfiction #DramioneFanfics

Haha!!! Ambivalent sleep it is, then. Ok, so ambivalent (good) news is that I did sleep, but I am now at the moment when they get married, and Felix is just falling so hard. They both don't trust each other though, and I am just absolutely primed for the conflict to peak!
