Drabble: Colour-Coded (Theodore/Draco)

[slumber]

Title: Colour-Coded
Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing: Draco/Theodore
Word Count: 100 words
Rating: PG
Additional Notes: I'd forgotten that I hadn't posted this yet until ccharlotte prompted me to write Theodore/Blaise and something with colours. :|


Colours have a way of defining, shaping, Theodore's life. Green for the colours he proudly wears, black for the colours he soon shall. All shades of these colours, cool and dark, are good for him--blend in the black of night, wear robes of dark green, make acquaintances with Ravenclaw blue.

He avoids all hues and shades of red, warm and bright, like the red and gold of Gryffindor arrogance, the happy yellows of Hufflepuff inanity, red-orange of Weasley poverty, and he slips into black night from Draco's bed to his just before the sky turns orange and betrays him.

Oooh, this just completely knocked me off course. Such a pleasant surprise -- so vivid, especially for only 100 words, but also subtle enough for the last few words to have such an impact.

Lovely. :D

Aww, yay, thanks. :P
