Looking for a fun read, rom-com vibes (I want to giggle and laugh), but with deep emotional moments too. No deeply miserable characters

Hello! I am looking for a fun read but with deep emotional moment here and there too.

I have tries to filter on ao3 but it seems there is a preference for really miserable Draco and sad Hermione among the most recent fics lol, so I am turning to you for some recs, guys

I am NOT looking for crack fics, please. I want rom-com vibes with a good world building (no muggle AUs)

What I'd like to read: good banter, hate to love dynamic, posh sceptical and sarcastic Draco, a good ensemble cast, unresolved sexual tension that makes you curl your toes and you're just like * NOW KISS!! * and a spectacular love confession (I am demanding I know). I absolutely do NOT want Draco smitten from the start: he has to be completely indifferent to Hermione looks and irked by her being a typical swot persona.

Fics that I found particularly funny: DMATMOOBIL, Wedding Wars, Bad Omens, Hot for the teacher, and Teach me how to forget (Detraquée too has funny moments, as it's obvioulsy a goated fic.)

I have already read or dnf everything that is well known, I think.

The Obligations we keep plot point question - beware spoilers!

Hiiii! It's the first time I'm posting here so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to ask this kind of questions, but I think I saw some similar post below.

Anyway, I am reading The Obligations we keep and I am loving it so far! However, as the tags are not really helping me understand, I wanted to know if >!this is one of those stories where at some point we discover that he has been fancying her all along and somehow "faking" the enemies part.!<

Thank you!

War time, slow burn recently or almost completed fic not overly unhinged

As I'm coming back after a long time not being able to read Dramione, I'd like to deep my toe back in again.

&#x200B;

I'd like to find a war time fic SLOW BURN, EtL, recently completed or almost completed, with safe houses dynamic, with a competent and battle-hardened Hermione, who however does not become "dark" in a very OOC way, if you catch my drift.

&#x200B;

I'd like to read a classic Draco as a spy or who has completely defected, but people of the Order are still weary of him (and him being moved by surviving instinct and protection towards his loved ones, not really higher and noble principles). Bonus points if he appears in his Death Eater robes, mask and all at one point. But no dark overly obsessed Draco please.

&#x200B;

I think I've described The Fallout, lol. I also already enjoyed Isolation or From Wiltshire with love in the past (even if the >! Obsessing towards the end was too much for me !<), and many other older masterpieces.

Right now I'm reading Cuckoo, by Slytheryn_babe and I am loving it so far.
