I've seen variations of this floating around, and even though I'm still working on my last ficlet from the last time I offered drabbles, I wanted to try this
( Read more... )
Okay, this takes a bit of background, so bear with me.
See, yesterday I was filling out my application to play Luna on si_muove_rpg and one question was about sexuality. I'll attach the full thing I wrote at the bottom, but the short version is that I wrote down that she and Ollivander had developed a relationship (at her insistence) while they were held captive together. And I looked at what I wrote and thought, "Every single person on my flist is going to make the o.O face and think I've lost my mind. Except maybe Nokomis, since she likes things out of the ordinary and not romance-novel-perfect."
And lo, here you are, offering drabbles. It's a SIGN. And so the number is 1762, and the pairing is Luna/Ollivander. ... Feel free to make the o.O face and tell me I've lost my mind, it's okay.
Sexuality: Luna believes in true love, but she thinks you have to look for it, and that it could be hidden anywhere. She doesn't have sex with anyone and everyone, but she's open to feeling a romantic and sexual bond with anyone, whatever their shape, gender, color, or creed.
Her most serious relationship thus far was with John Ollivander, the wandmaker. They grew close while imprisoned together in the basement of Malfoy Manor, and she gradually overcame his resistance and convinced him to take a chance on a girl young enough to be his granddaughter. The relationship resumed after the Battle of Hogwarts, although he insisted on absolute secrecy so as to safeguard her reputation. This continued until he died, leaving his shop to a cousin who was also a master wandmaker and agreed to take the name of Ollivander so as to continue the tradition.
Luna's grief for him was private, but it made her a little more solemn. She's dated since then - an Australian witch, a vampire in Nova Scotia, and various men and women closer to home - but perhaps out of habit has kept up a measure of discretion, helped by professional courtesy from other journalists. She's not currently attached to anyone, but she's still keeping her mind, and her heart, open.
Okay, you are no longer alone in the universe, because you've convinced me that Luna/Ollivander is an awesome idea. I'm pretty excited to write it, actually, as it's a pairing that never would have occurred to me but I can totally see all the interesting dynamics. So... this is me making a bit of O.o face, but being totally down with it. :D

(Apparently this was serendipity.)

BTW, the song you picked - Head Down by Soundgarden - worked really well, I thought, as a mood-setter for captivity. \o/
