Bet you thought I forgot, huh?
May. 6th, 2005 04:03 pmI still owed a few drabbles from that drabble-thing a while back. I didn't forget- I just needed TIME!
Here they are. I like the second one, but I'm not as crazy about the first. :P

katilara, who wanted glam!pups. I don’t ever write glam!pups and really am not at all a fan of the characterization, but I figured I’d give it a go anyway.
The music was hard and throbbing, seductive in a raw sort of way. And yet Remus wasn’t dancing; he was only watching Sirius with a small, knowing smile teasing the edge of his lips.
“What?” Sirius asked, suddenly self-conscious about the glitter and the eyeliner and the tight leather that drew eyes.
Remus shrugged. “It’s not you.”
“So?” Sirius demanded defensively. “Sometimes it’s nice not to be me.”
“I know. And sometimes there’s a certain satisfaction in knowing I’m the only one in this room who knows who you really are.” He chuckled. “And sometimes, I like it that way.”

magic_at_mungos, who wanted Sirius giving baby Harry a bath.
“Prongs!” The roar shook the tiny house. “Teach your son that the bathtub is not a toilet!” Sirius was soaked from head to toe, black hair hanging in bedraggled strands, much to Harry’s clear amusment.
James leaned against the door frame and chuckled. “He got you, huh?”
“Right up the nose!” Sirius waved in anger, causing Harry to squeal and wave his hands in imitation. “Little pisser!”
“Bigger than yours,” James retorted.
“All right. That’s it. Outside, you bloody wanker! Now!”
And from the bathtub, clear as day, Harry spoke his first word.
“Wanker!” he crowed, pointing at his father.

Date: 2005-05-06 09:05 pm (UTC)The first one was OK for glam!pups. I'm not a fan of glam either, but I liked this, that Remus knew what Sirius was under all the glitter.
Now the second one--LOL! Repeat after me, Sirius--always have a washcloth on hand. Always. Baby boys really are fountains. Trust me. ;-)

(I ought to write a follow-up drabble with Sirius telling this story to Hermione and Ginny in front of Harry.)

Date: 2005-05-06 09:42 pm (UTC)heheheh, love them both. When I saw that request from KL i was thinking 'hmmm.. i wonder how Lissa is going to do that..' since I know you're not quite a fan of the glam!pups. I like it though. I think you managed to stick to your view of things while still giving a view of the other side.
and of course the econd one was cute & hilarious :D well done, m'dear!

Date: 2005-05-06 10:15 pm (UTC)By the way, my little sister's first words were "bird shit" ("bird dit"), so it does happen. We still tease her about it to this day, more than twenty years later. ;)
The first one was cute, too. I'm not really a fan of glam!pups, either, but it's adorable that Sirius would be self-conscious about it.

Thanks!
