Title: One, Two, Three
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] dustmouth
Prompt: #1 There are plans for a "Victory Ball" (or something the equivalent to the Yule Ball) during 8th year. Harry is the guest of honor and expected to bring a date, but he is besieged by admirers and feels overwhelmed (it doesn't help that he doesn't want to hurt anyone's feelings and is not yet ready to 'come out'). Hermione gets the bright idea to use something like the Goblet of Fire to choose a date for Harry. Everyone who wants can put their name in the Goblet, and at the appointed time it will choose the best possible partner for him. As a joke someone adds Draco's name, and of course, he's the name the Goblet spits out.

This is amazing! <3

I love everything bout it, from the art to the story, to the comedic theme, and every single character - I especially adored Pansy.

This was AMAZING! Undoubtedly one of the best (if not THE best) Harry Potter comic I have ever seen. I love your style sooo much, and I loved the premise and the dialogue and just... everything. The way you drew all of the characters was so perfect!! Ron being so tall and Hermione being cute and short (and I loved that she was a bit chubby, I think that is so perfect for her) and Pansy's hair... Everything was perfect. Also, the tights!! I LOVED their waltz outfits, they were so amazing. And Harry with contacts! And the body language throughout... Haha, I am going to stop here because I would just go on gushing forever, but this is seriously phenomenal, and I loved it. Amazing job!!

This is brilliant! I love the pom-poms and the tights and the expressions. And I can just see Pansy and Hermione conspiring to take over the Ministry as well :)

That was amazing!! Wonderful story and art. Loved everything and everyone... Pansy and Hermione, the whole thing about Draco having nice legs made me laugh, also the pom poms!!! :D and the scene leading to their first kiss is just so lovely and cute and perfect. ♥

This is awesome! Really loved the little glimpses of their time together, very detailed and lots of character, yet leaving enough room for imagination. Thank you for putting so much time into this and delivering this beautiful comic :)

I'm so excited that you drew this for my prompt!!

I especially loved these bits:

  • "I think you just scored a hot date with Malfoy, Harry"
  • "What could I possibly get from Malfoy that would ever do me good?
    "A practical course on how to be a complete wanker?"
  • Arguing about who would lead!
  • Waltzing Through the Ages
  • Pom-poms!
  • POM-POMS!!!
This was so very cute - thank you so much!

This is really and truly amazing. The amounts of effort that has gone in this, along with each panel just being so brilliant and better than the last. Ah, Harry w/out his glasses looks so dashing and it not only takes Draco’s breath away, but mine, too. Just beautiful work really.

I was hook from the beginning and I didn’t stop until it was done. Thanks so much for sharing. It really blew my mind.

OH wow! This is great!! There is just so much gorgeous detail here, and I love the story and the beautiful art. The Hermione/Pansy was fabulous and terrifying, and your Ron was just spot on. Loved seeing Harry and Draco come together through their dance lessons, and the ending was fabulous!

Oh, you amazing genius person! THE POMPOMS! \o/ or should I say *\o/*

I think one of my favourite parts was Draco going flump facedown on the bed. But really the whole thing is my favourite part. OH! Harry accidentally telling Ron that Draco has nice legs? I love you. Hermione and Pansy taking over the Ministry? I love you. Harry turning up with his hair slicked back and contact lenses? I love you, and I love the pompoms you rode in on. The kisses are delicious. So delicious. This is the best thing to come home and find on LJ after a long day. ♥

Oh, wow, Pansy's dress and hair and everything at the end <3 This was so much fun! Who cares about backgrounds :D I particularly like the drawings on the pages with the numbers (don't know how to call these pages)--"A realisation" is so cute!!

Amazing! I love how you made this into an epic comic. My favorite moment was Harry peering over the back of the couch and claiming not to care what Malfoy thinks while Hermione and Pansy laugh. I love your Pansy so much! Her interactions with Blaise in the beginning were just perfect. She is exactly what Draco needs (other than Harry). I love the clothes! I love Ron's supportive-even-though-it-hurts reactions. I love the whole thing!

Wow this is really stunning! Their facial expressions kill me throughout, you are really great at that, as well as body language overall. I also particularly loved Blaise and Pansy they have so much sass. Pansy is deliciously wicked. I love how you draw Ron as well, tall and straight and the adorably cute face. The dialogue between Harry and Draco was full of awesome tension, it really showed where their heads were at and how their feelings evolved. Really lovely comic!

LOVE THIS SO MUCH. Especially Hermione and Pansy as bffs plotting world domination (probably ;D), Draco's face plant into the bed and his secret love of pompoms. So funny and beautiful.

Ah! This is such fun to gaze upon and read! The Pansy! The pom poms! I adore it from beginning to end. :D

Aaahhh!!
I just needed to get a joyful little scream out of my system, because this gem of a comic makes me so happy! ♥♥♥
I love everything about it, of course, the humour and the drawings and the characters - but my very favourite thing might just be Draco's body language :D Perfect!

OMG! You and your comics! This is sheer brilliance as usual. I'm always so delighted to recognize your style in the first panel because then I know I'm in for a real treat. This time was no exception. The whole story is brilliant and I love Harry and Draco's weird little mating dance (both literal and figurative) and Hermione scheming with Pansy has great results. <3 And those silly little pom poms. :D Well done!

The pompoms! This was great -- not only really cute with very expressive artwork but the story itself worked so well for Harry and Draco. And I loved your Ron, his idea of "a practical course in how.to be a complete wanker" made me giggle.

omg!!
