Harry/Draco drabble

[emmagrant01]

joosetta promised art for drabbles. I hope she meant it, because this is what I wrote. I want a picture of this.

~*~*~*~*~

It was the palm of his hand that did it, really. Harry was fascinated by the curve of his life line, by the way it branched so sharply; by the solid strength of the head line, and the utter lack of a marriage line. All of those lines blurred suddenly, and he blinked.

"Done yet?" Malfoy sighed. He sounded bored.

"No," Harry replied, falsely indignant. He looked closer. "Trelawney said to be thorough."

"Trelawney's full of shit. You could just make this up, you know, and it wouldn't matter."

Harry didn't answer. He stared at Draco's sex line, which was broken in a few places. Harry couldn't remember what that meant.

"Or maybe," Draco cooed, "you just want to hold my hand."

"Shut up," Harry snorted. But he smiled anyway.

ETA: Art!

I have no idea! I did a little research before I wrote the drabble, but all I really found was a diagram of all the lines. I know that it's supposed to be significant when your heart line, or life line, etc., is broken.

If anybody else knows, I'd be happy to learn more!

absolutely adorable.
i wonder if you'll ever write a longer this-era h/d? *massive if-useless wistfulness*

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Thanks! And yes, I'd love to write a Hogwarts-era H/D fic sometime. I have lots of ideas, but not so much time... ;-)

That is such a lovely image, especially the fake indifference. It really does call out to be illustrated.

Thanks so much! Yes, in her post, joosetta said to write drabbles of scenes you'd like to see illustrated, and this one popped right into my head...

Wonderful drabble ... and beautifully illustrated.
I love their expressions!

I'm trying to find out what the broken sex line meant, but I haven't found anything so far.
