"Manual" Salazar Slytherin, G

[hwister]

Title: Manual
Character(s): Salazar Slytherin 
Rating: G
Warning(s): Blatant self-interpretation of the Founders.
Challenge(s): Manual
Word count: 100

There are no manuals for greatness, Salazar knows this, sitting in the dark parlor, raking hands through his dark hair. Frustration does not come easily, not to him, but to be chased out of his own school

Ooh, nice! I just read the second to last chapter in Chamber of Secrets to my mom last night (I'm reading the books to her). So! I like this; I like your image of Salazar sitting there, hatching his basilisk, and feeling driven out of Hogwarts.

That's so nice of you! (I mean, reading to your mom.)

Thanks!

It was the way to get her into Harry - it only took me 7 years to think of the idea :D

This is great - capturing an entire story in only 100 words.

Thanks!

Nice!

My fav. phrase: "It chafes, like the rough wood of a splintered wand over an open wound"

Isn't imagery great? :D
