Fic for scarletladyy: Posture (Narcissa/Hermione, PG, 692 words)

[silburygirl]

Notes: In my call for prompts below (you can still request one if you want...), scarletladyy asked for Narcissa/Hermione darkfic. Unbeta'd and I haven't written much lately so it might be a bit rusty. Hopefully not rusty to the point of creaking, though.

Granger’s smile widens, revealing a row of perfectly aligned white teeth, not threatening in the slightest. “It’s you, though, isn’t it? You’re the only member of the family with a backbone, and the Ministry has paid the price for underestimating you.”

I loooooooooove you! You made Narcissa Hermione's dark counterpart--she's to Lucius what Hermione is to Harry. I love it! And this Hermione has some of the same ruthlessness that could put Skeeter in a jar--but that you rarely see. And that ending? *shivers* This is twisted--in such a good way.

Thank you! As you know, my attempts at darkfic are few and far between, so it's nice that I got some twistiness in there.

[scarletladyy]

Oh I do love this, thank you! :)

Very dark and really quite twisted, a fic which I enjoyed to read :)

[silburygirl]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Fuuuuuuuck! And I mean that in the most awestruck and gleefully wicked way! Your spine metaphor is spectacular, and Hermione's revenge/sadistic streak is bitter-delicious. My hat is off to you! Brava!

Thank you! I had a lot of fun playing with the concept. This was, bizarrely enough, inspired by rewatching bits of Arrested Development...

Here from a rec from the Know It Alls blog, and I have to say, this gave me shivers. The spine imagery was too perfect, and their whole face-off was wonderfully chilling.

Thank you! :)
