Worth a dollar or five...

Can I have a Harry Potter one? H/D for choice. prompt: "never too late"

I'll donate a dollar, regardless.

I'm sorry this has taken so long:

When Draco was ten, he developed a brief and fleeting crush on a boy from a robe shop. The boy listened to Draco prattle on about whatever topic came to mind, and he had these vivid, green eyes hidden behind the stupidest glasses ever. This lasted until the undiscerning git chose a Weasley--a Weasley!--over Draco, at which point he was over him, definitely

[kateshortforbob]

Can I bid for anything Pet Shop of Horrors or Stardust-related? Whichever you'd prefer would be lovely!

[everysecondtues]

Yes! Do you have any prompts you would like to go with it?

[kateshortforbob]

Hmm... PSOH is really new to me - to be honest, I'm going entirely from fanfic on this. Something about the pet shop, I think would be interesting - the exotic animals, the endless rooms... Alternatively, D and Leon being acidic and grumpy over tea. (Really, this is all based on fanfic I've read and the actual characters could be nothing like this - please feel free to ignore me!)

As for Stardust, um... frankly I love the book (and the film) so much that anything based on or even faintly related to it would be amazing. Maybe about the market? "What need, Dunstan wondered, could someone have of the storm-filled eggshells?" Or anything else one might buy there.

Sorry, I'm afraid these are a bit rubbish; I've never prompted anyone before! Really, I'd be happy with anything you'd like to write

I'm sorry this has taken so long: PSoH (Chris, Leon's younger brother, pov, about the petshop)

[everysecondtues]

One thing Chris loved about the petshop was the endless corridors and strange doors and playmates waiting for Chris to befriend them. Okay, that wasn't one thing, but he loved it, still. The scent of incense hung heavy on the air as he padded down the halls, the raised voices of his brother and the Count growing quiet and distant behind him. Sometimes the doors he opened led out onto warm, gritty sand and cool, frothy waters, and he would strip down to shorts and swim with the groups of children he found there. Other times, he found actual rooms, filled with men and women who cooed over his hair and clothes and let him sit in their laps to tell him stories.

What Chris loved most of all, though, was the way his brother would relax just the slightest bit after a visit, looser, easier. Leon would complain about the Count, but his voice would be lighter and his smiles would come at just the smallest prompting.

Well, that and how Count D always gave him cake.

Ooh, I love your Naruto stuff. :D Would you be okay with doing something Sasori or Deidara related?

[everysecondtues]

Oh, I wish, but I totally fail at writing certain characters in Naruto, specifically the Akatsuki. Which is funny, because the Gaara rescue arc is one of my favorites. Um. I don't suppose you might be interested in something else in Naruto or otherwise? If not, I could try mashing something out, but it would be horrible.

No worries-- could I ask for some Team Hebi silliness, or maybe awkward Kankuro and Lee brother-in-law interaction? 8D
