A note about this journal (and about me)
Hi, I'm diabólica (call me D.) and this is my IJ. If you've landed here, I expect it's because I've fangirled friended you and/or commented on your work, in which case you are warmly welcome! Please feel free to pull up a chair, grab a beverage and hang out a while.

I am also on LJ as celta_diabolica and on Dreamwidth as diabolica. The Dreamwidth account is more of a name-squat, really.

If you're considering friending this journal, here's what you'll get: some fan fiction in the Harry Potter fandom and some anecdotes about my life (read: me making fun of myself) or musings about things I'm reading/thinking. If you'd like to read my fic, you can find a list under the cut.



My fic is likely to be ... how to say? ... Malfoy-centric, as I have a wicked pernicious girl crush on Narcissa and a regular wicked pernicious crush on Lucius. However, I also have a soft spot for a certain snarky Potions Master and a certain Cruiciatus-hurling pureblood witch. Oh, and my fic is also likely to be het or gen.

Anything marked 'Adult' below is intended to be read only by those 18 or older. Anything marked Gen may have adult themes but won’t contain explicitly adult material.
