I did the drabble meme that's going around. I got it from [livejournal.com profile] timetiger who wrote a fabulous drabble for me about Minerva McGonagall. Go ask her for one!

Like her, I posted all the responses in the comments, but I realized that if I want to sort these using my LJ tags, I have to start another post. So here they are again. I have one more request to fill. (Unless you all want to ask for more, the meme says ten.)


[livejournal.com profile] etrangere requested a Snape/Lupin drabble, and ducks. (Okay, I think she really meant to say that she was ducking, but I wrote a drabble with ducks in it!)



Ducks

Remus Lupin was sitting at the edge of the pond in the London park, on a bench. Some fat white geese and mallard ducks were swimming in front of him. He stared listlessly and did not throw bread to them.

In his peripheral vision, black-clad legs made their ambling way toward the bench.

"You bastard."

"You know why I had to do it, Lupin. The Order needed me to be a spy, and..."

"I know, but I still hate it. It's too great a sacrifice."

"Dumbledore asked me to..."

"I didn't mean his sacrifice of his own life. I meant his sacrifice of yours."

"Sometimes one must do his duty."

"You are an idiot," he replied, his face wet with tears. "This isn't some novel, it's your life. Sometimes you should refuse to go along with a bad idea. I learned that from you."




[livejournal.com profile] stasia requested rhyming smut. (This is very dirty, so if you are under 18 please be responsible.)



A Werewolf Size-Queen Addresses His Lover

Your cock is bigger than a garden hose
All set to spray—but do not paint it green!
Yes it is snakelike, bigger than your nose
The finest penis that I've ever seen—

Come, take it out and let us have a look
No, Severus, I meant, let's have a lick!
Enchanting! For it, too, has that slight hook
That gives the anal thrust that extra kick—

Now let me tell you what I'd really love—
Yes, penetration, joining, that will do
In bed, we fit, just like a hand in glove
And coming hard is a good look on you—

In bed or out, I feel a wolfish glee
To have this snarky bastard next to me.



[livejournal.com profile] bronze_ribbons, the mistress of drabbles, requested a Snape/Lupin drabble with Yiddish.



Expressions

"Nisht gefer licht," Severus muttered into his cauldron.

"What?" Remus said.

"It's an expression."

"But wizards don't use matches."

"Literalist!"

"Look, first you hock mir a chinek about exact language..." Lupin smirked. He tapped his wand on the kettle and poured steaming water over the leaves in the pot.

"I didn't ask to be stuck in a cave with a...is that Darjeeling? No sugar, thanks," he said automatically, taking the cup.

In a moment he smacked his forehead. "That's it!"

"What?"

"Wizards don't use matches! The cigarette lighter isn't a Horcrux!"

Remus rolled his eyes. "Of course it's not. If we had cake, we could have tea and cake, if we had tea."

"We do have tea."

"It's an expression."



[livejournal.com profile] severity_softly asked for MWPP Lily/Remus... smut!! smut!! smut!! w/aggressive!Lily if at all possible! But this is pretty tame.



Revising

"You have something in your eye," Lily said. She knelt on the couch, bending over his face.

"That's the oldest line in the book!" Remus joked as she dabbed the eyelash out. Then she cupped his face in her hands and kissed him. "Oh!" he gasped. "What are you..." The curtain of her red hair fell around his face as she knelt over him.

Then behind his eyelids, the same red flashed. She was sitting in his lap, wiggling her ample buttocks against him, and he was as hard as he'd ever been in his life. She nibbled and licked his Adam's apple; everything was on fire.

"Lily!" he whispered, "What about our Arithmancy homework?"



[livejournal.com profile] liseuse requested MWPP Remus/James, something having to do with umbrellas. This is related to the previous drabble.



A Rainy Day

Remus was glad that James hadn't caught him in the common room with Lily on Thursday. Now he and James were setting out for Hogsmeade. The sky was overcast; James pulled a tiny umbrella out of his pocket, and with a muttered spell it opened to full size, shielding them both from the rain...and from view.

"James?"

James had casually draped his arm around Remus' shoulders, as though to pull him under the brolly. He leaned his head on Remus' shoulder and nuzzled Remus' neck.

"James!"

His friend was licking under Remus' ear. Remus, sexually aroused and suspicious, reared back.

"Did you make some kind of bet with Lily?"

James blushed.



[livejournal.com profile] karasu_hime asked for Remus/Severus and Lily: Serenity. For some reason this presented itself to me as an opportunity to write a sexually-explicit villanelle. I think I need to get more sleep. I don't know if this is something that happened or something that Snape dreamed.



Sweethearts in the Spring

Though Lily's eyes are a disturbing green
Severus finds he cannot look his fill
While Remus stands behind him, still, serene

The Hogsmeade park is a bucolic scene
The sun is shining, and the wind is still
Though Lily's eyes are a disturbing green

She holds his hands and asks "Where have you been?"
He shivers at her touch, he feels a chill
While Remus stands behind him, still serene.

He tips her head up, bends to kiss the queen
Of all the dreams that haunt him as they will
For Lily's eyes are a disturbing green

While Remus' hard cock presses the seam
Of his tight trousers—gods, he's going to spill!
And Remus holds him tightly, so serene.

He's coming now, ecstatic, held between
Two gentle lovers, on that Scottish hill
Lily's bright eyes are beautiful and green
And Remus holds him, and he is serene.

Oh, I forgot to comment to you about the drabble yesterday ^^
Actually that was exactly what I was asking XD and that was a perfect and wonderful drabble for that ♥ Loved the articulation of the morality of it all (now someone just needs to say something about it being ineffable XD)

Ah, so you did want ducks! Did you see that totally hilarious AU duck-themed Snupin story that [livejournal.com profile] almost_clara posted yesterday?

I did laugh at myself for this drabble, having a character in a novel tell another character, "this isn't a novel!"

Delightful as mine is, ete's is ... well, I've been trying to come up with the right word to pin down why I like it so much. I think it comes down to Lupin saying: "I didn't mean his sacrifice of his own life. I meant his sacrifice of yours" -- it's not what Snape or the reader was expecting him to say, and that's when my heart turned over.

And ... "mistress of drabbles"!? -- between you and [livejournal.com profile] pixychelle, I had better seek some way of deflating my now-swollen head, stat. ;-)

(Then again, the plotzilla-that-is-refusing-to-topple-over-nicely has me banging said noggin against my desk, so maybe it'll take care of itself.. )

You do write a lot of very beautifully-crafted drabbles.

What A-E's drabble and yours have in common: Englishness. At least, stereotypical Englishness. Sometimes one must do his duty. Oh, is that tea?

Oh to be in England now that April's there. Okay, May, whatever.

Oh, the drabble with ducks. Wow. That was beautifully poignant and it tells so much but leaves so much unsaid. Lovely.
