Drabble: Unforgivable

[marguerite_26]

I'm in a odd mood this evening. I was searching through my harddrive and found an old drabble I'd written pre-DH. I don't think I ever posted it on my lj as I wasn't in the HP fandom at the time.

alaana_fair this is NOT for you. :D



With a thud, his head hit the cement. Blood, warm and wet, seeped from his nose.

Harry knew he would die young. It was fated after all. Some damned alignment of stars or compilation of tea leaves. The indignity of old age hadn't ever counted as one of his fears.

The last few years, he’d spent countless nights accepting his death. It was predestined, the honour of final victory or loss. In the end it wouldn’t matter.

But this was not how it was to go. He stared at the pale beautiful face that had shared his pillow so often in these dark days. Betrayal turned the blood acidic in his mouth. He spit onto the sidewalk.

His wrist shook as he reached out his wand.

The grey eyes that had given him comfort and hope, opened wide in shock as he muttered his last words, “Avada Kedavra.”



haha! I can try to write the angst... I just can't stand reading it. :D

Unbelievable! That's scary and creepy! Well done!

Peace,

Thanks for the warning. I wondered just from the title. :-D

[absynthedrinker.livejournal.com]

Read it anyway! It's good

Peace,
Bubba

LOL! You know better than tell me that!

*runs from angst and hides head under the covers*

Besides, I've cried enough today already. *squishes*

Thanks Bubba! OMG! That was sooo long ago I wrote this. I had to fix my spelling of Avada Kedavra, and I just noticed I had Draco with blue eyes. I need to clean that up!

Things that happen when you dabble in fandoms you don't read fic in. :D

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Haha! It's not that bad actually. It's pretty poorly written which takes nicely away from the heart-wrenching Draco tries to kill Harry so Harry kills him first plot. :D

Plus! I have Draco with blue eyes, which is always good for laugh.

But don't read. I never want to make you cry.

LOL! Don't read, but I'm going to tell you that Draco tries to kill Harry so Harry kills him first! *smacks you*

[bryoneybrynn.livejournal.com]

Ooo! The vengeful-final-moments-Harry! I like it. But boo. I like angst, but I DON'T like sweet Draco killing sweet Harry. You is mean! *runs away crying*

[beatnikspinster.livejournal.com]

OUCH! Very good though!

[potteresque_ire]

YAY! for Major Character Death!!
Wait, that's a wrong response, let's try again :D

So angsty and intense. It's very visual and heartbreaking, in a small number of words. Awesome! :)

Oh, but I want more! I want a whole story.

[stellamoon.livejournal.com]

If it's not for alaana, it certainly isn't for me, either, by default. So, sorry, I won't be reading this one. But I'll bet it's fabulous and well-crafted, and makes people cry. Go you!

*ducks*

Oooops! :D

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

I made you cry? Shut up, I did not. You are the Angst Queen!

*squishes away the angst monsters*

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Hey, hun! *squish*

Thanks. Sorry for the ouchy. I should have left in blue-eyed!Draco and the mis-spelled Avada Kedavra, it reduced the pain significantly. *g*

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

YAY!!! Pain! Suffering! Betrayal! W00t!!!
*g*

Thanks babe.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

oh, goodness. I couldn't do that. A hundred odd words of heartbreak I can manage. Anything more is just... ugh.
(that's 'ugh' like I couldn't write that... not 'ugh' the sound made during sex).
;)

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is short and a quick read but NOT for you!!! I don't think it is terribly well-crafted but I think it made someone cry! So YAY!!! :D

[beatnikspinster.livejournal.com]

Nah, grey eyes and spelled right is better. You do what you have to do. :)

i think it's actually a bit realistic that they'd do each other in. passion that burns too brightly and all that. so well done. and--i can take dark angst in drabble-sized doses so this is right up my alley.

hi!

Anners

[lokifan]

Loved it. Gorgeous angst. And it made me grin that you warned off our fluffy alaana_fair.

LOOK YOU MADE SPIKE CRY.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Here, I'll use my console icon for poor Spike. :D

Thanks for reading and commenting! I'm thrilled you liked.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Anners!!! hihi!!! It's so lovely to see you, sorry I missed my window to actually talk with you more than just exchanging comments days later.

I'm right with you with drabble-sized angst. Just enough for my tastes. :D

Thanks for reading. I'm glad you liked.
