quaggyThanks to a couple of memes these past few months, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
unoriginal_liz has given me some awesome prompts. I figure it's time and past that I live up to my obligations! Let's start with the Harry Potter drabbles.
Title: Tokens of Affection
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Harry Potter
Prompts: "Neville/Luna - every so often Hogwarts gets deliveries of strange and terrifying plants, addressed to Neville"
For:unoriginal_liz
Notes: According to JK Rowling, Neville and Luna marry other people, but since she didn't actually write about it in the books, we're going to ignore that!
She sends him plants.
Rare plants that everyone thought were extinct. (If they ever existed at all.)
Dangerous plants that send him in to the Restricted Section to find out more information. (He's not afraid of the Restricted Section now that he's a professor. He's not.)
Mysterious plants that she was the first to discover. (She even named one after him. A rather elegant mushroom-shaped orchid she found deep the rainforests of South America.)
He loves them all. But he doesn't quite know how to say that he'd rather have her than more plants. Maybe someday he'll find the words.
Title: Off Course
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Harry Potter
Prompts: "Harry/Hermione - going off course"
For:unoriginal_liz
Notes: This was one of those ideas that didn't actually want to be forced into a drabble. Maybe someday (in my copious amounts of free time), I'll try to develop it into a full fic. For this drabble, ignore the Deathly Hollow epilogue. (I do anyway, as a matter of principle.)
They had their lives all planned out. He'd marry Ginny. She would marry Ron. They'd be one big happy family. But somehow things went off course. He became involved with the Ministry. She decided to become a doctor. It wasn't until it was too late (and Ron and Ginny were engaged to other people) did they even realize how far away they had drifted from the Weasley family. They should've been heartbroken, but they weren't. They still had each other, after all. That's really all they ever needed. But they had to live a little before they could understand that.

Thank you for the awesome drabbles - they were lovely!
