Title: Tradition.
Rating: G.
Word Count: 100.
Pairings: Parvati/Harry.
Challenge: #14 - Holidays.
Team: Bangles!
Author's Notes (A/N): Decidedly AU. Heh. Other than that, it's my veryfirstdrabble, so while concrit is welcome, please don't be cruel! Hehe.

Parvati insisted she stayed Hogwarts this winter holiday because she heard the castle was always beautifully decorated for Christmas, and it would be her last year to see it.

Everyone else knew it was because her boyfriend always stayed for the Christmas holiday, and it would be her last chance to spend it with him here.

And so, it was no surprise when she was found in the commonroom, standing under the mistletoe, with her lips perfectly pursed, just when said boyfriend came down the stairs from his dorm on Christmas Eve.

“Its tradition!” she insisted, and Harry obliged.

Presents (PG; Padma, Parvati

Title: Presents
Word Count: 100
Characters: Padma, Parvati
Rating: PG
Prompt: 14 - The Holidays
Team: Brains

Padma loved the holiday season at Hogwarts. It was nothing like December at home, but both had their high points. No matter what celebration, friends and family seemed to take precedence. She even found having to deal with Parvati easy to handle this time of year.

“Are you getting me a present?” the pretty twin asked one night.

After giving it some thought…or making Parvati think she was, Padma answered, “I don’t know. Do you think you’ve been good?” Even watching Parvati pout was fun.

“I hate that rule. You should get me one because I’m your sister.”

Awakened.../The Tears Ended... (PG; Padma, Parvati)

Sat, 06 Aug 2005 20:16:27 GMT

Title: Awakened in the Middle of the Night
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Character(s)/Pairings: Padma
Challenge: Crying
Team: Brains

Something was wrong, but Padma couldn’t figure out where the tears were coming from. She’d been asleep – and then she was cruelly awake. Her homework was done and in her bag. What else could this sick feeling be?

Grabbing for her wand, she jumped out of bed. If it wasn’t anything to do with her, there was only one thing that could be wrong. Parvati was in trouble.

There was no one in her twins’ bed when she got there. After looking around the Gryffindor girls’ dorm, she struggled to get her sluggish brain working. Where could her sister be?

Title: The Tears Ended Hours Ago
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Character(s)/Pairings: Padma, Parvati
Challenge: Crying
Team: Brains

Parvati hadn’t meant to be out all night but she couldn’t find the energy to get up. The glass of the window was still chilly against her cheek, but she couldn’t feel it against her icy cheek. Hours ago she’d been crying and hadn’t cared about the cold. Tears were still good for something.

“What are you doing down here? I’ve been looking all over for you.”

“Go away, Padma. I don’t have the energy to deal with you right now.” There was no way she was going to tell her sister about what that boy had said to her.

Summary: Parvati makes a decision. (Post HBP)
Rating: G
Challenge: Crying
Team: Beauty

‘You’re going to risk your life for a boy who’s never going to notice you?’

Parvati continued to pack without looking up at her twin. ‘We’re all at risk now. I’m not going to run away like a coward.’

‘Mum and Dad won’t understand, you know.’

‘They never listen anyway. All they want to do is go back home; well, this is my home. I’m staying to fight.’

Padma’s eyes were bright with tears. ‘I’m not letting you do this alone.’

It never occurred to Parvati to say no. All their lives wherever one went, the other had always followed.

Tantrums of a Shopaholic

Title: Tantrums of a Shopaholic
Rating: G
Word Count: 100.
Character(s)/Pairings: Harry/Parvati
Summary: Harry's trapped with no way out...
Challenge: Shopping (10)
House: Beauty
Author's Notes (A/N): :D Comments Appreciated. It's crap, but I decided to post it whereas I wasted time on it.

Harry was caught between a rock and a hard place.

“It’s n’fair, Harry! You’re so CRUEL TO ME!” Parvati bawled, hitting their bed with her fists and feet as she threw a rather fantastic tantrum.

“I said no, Parvati. Crying won’t help. No!”

Harry cringed as her sobs grew louder, he usually indulged his wife but he knew what a monster she became when allowed to do what she was asking.

He shuddered, remembering the last time. She had almost reduced him to tears!

Sobs became near-screeches. “PLEASE!”

He crumbled, “FINE!” Harry sighed, “You can take me shopping for clothes.”

A Proper, Pureblood Wife

Title: A Proper, Pureblood Wife
Rating: G
Word Count: 100.
Character(s)/Pairings: Draco/Parvati
Summary: Draco's found himself the perfect wife, except for ...
Challenge: Shopping (10)
Team: Beauty
Author's Notes (A/N): :D Comments Appreciated.

Parvati made the perfect wife. Despite her unfortunate housing and kind streak that was as large as Stonehenge, she still had all the appropriate traits of a proper pureblood wife. One, she was beautiful with aristocratic beauty and a perfect figure. Two, she was docile in public, and a lion for his eyes only. Three, she was sweet and madly in love with him.

Unfortunately, however …

“Hi, Dragon!” Parvati chirped, walking in with numerous bags floating behind her. Handing Draco a gigantic wad of bills she kissed him disarmingly.

She also had all the pureblood wife’s typical shopping habits.

Shopping on the Serengeti (PG, Parvati and the Gryff Girls)

Mon, 25 Jul 2005 00:52:58 GMT

Title: Shopping on the Serengeti
Rating: PG
Word Court: 100
Character(s)/Pairings: Parvati and the Gryffindor Girls
Challenge: 10 - Shopping
Team: Brains

“Don’t you want to get a new robe?”

Parvati thought about ignoring the group of girls staring down at her, but it was painfully obvious she wasn’t going to be able to get out of this without an explanation. After three years of free spending, how was she going to explain she’d been cut off?

“My robes come from-“

“Yeah, yeah. From the finest seamstress in your country. We’ve heard it before.”

Gryffindors didn’t normally hunt in packs but she had the distinct impression that she had a lot more in common with gazelles than she did with the lions.

Title: Breakfast
Rating: G
Word Count: 100
Character(s)/Pairings: H/P
Challenge: Shopping
Team: Beauty

Harry thought grocery shopping would be relaxing, since they wouldn’t be looking at clothing and shoes but he’d been very mistaken. Parvati confused dishwashing liquid for juice and didn’t understand why there were so many different types of toothpaste.

‘It’s just pointless! Muggles are weird,’ she said affectionately, loading yet another box of cereal in the trolley.

‘I resent that,’ replied Harry.

‘That was the point.’

‘Don’t we have enough breakfast already?’ There were now seven boxes.

‘I like breakfast.’ She winked at him. ‘We’ll pick up cream, ok?’

‘Okay,’ he agreed, grinning. ‘You can never have enough cereal, anyway.’

Alright, everyone. I hate to do this, because it's not even that old, but I'm sure that everyone's noticed that it's been quite some time since I've issued a challenge. It turns out that I really don't have the time to manage this challenge community, and if anyone would like to volunteer to take over, then they can do so.

Volunteers?

Books are Better (PG, Padma/Roger, Parvati/Oliver)

Sat, 09 Jul 2005 04:42:38 GMT

Title: Books are Better
Rating: PG
Characters: Padma/Roger, Parvati/Oliver (implied in my head but not the story)
Word Count: 100
Prompt: 10 - Double Date
Team: Brains

Padma preferred an evening with her books. Words were so black and white! They always said exactly what they meant to say, never stumbling over themselves to be understood.

“Could you at least pretend you’re listening?” Parvati hissed as she pulled her menu up to hide her face from the boys. “You look bored.”

“I am bored. I don’t think Roger has said a single word to me all night long. Besides, I don’t know anything about Quidditch.”

Parvati squinted at her sister, ruining the effect of her beauty charm. “You’re from the same house.”

“But not the same planet.”

Title: How Bad Can It Be?
Rating: PG
Word count: 100
Characters/Pairings: Parvati, Draco. Mentions of H/P and R/D
Summary: Parvati has a great idea (only not)
Challenge: Double Date
Team: Beauty
a/n: Mostly dialogue. Sorry this has taken so long!

‘This is officially the dumbest idea you’ve ever had, and you have A LOT of dumb ideas.’

Parvati rolled her eyes. ‘How bad can it be?’

‘Your boyfriend hates me.’

‘And yours hates me.’

‘Maybe Weasley’s got good taste.’ Draco made a face. ‘What an oxymoron. Don’t tell him I said that.’

Parvati glanced at her watch. ‘They’re running late.’

‘Maybe they’ve ditched us to go drinking.’

‘Harry doesn’t drink.’

‘Your boyfriend,’ sneered Draco, ‘is a loser.’

‘My boyfriend,’ she snapped back. ‘Is prettier than yours.’

‘Bitch.’

Parvati smiled into her coffee. It was going to be a fun night.

Double Dates, Problems and Solutions

Character(s)/Pairings: Draco/Parvati, Ron/Hermione
Summary: Parvati has double standards with double dating.
Challenge: Double Date (9)
Team: Beauty
Author's Notes (A/N): :D Comments Appreciated.

“I don’t wanna.” Draco whined, scowling while fixing his cufflinks.

“They’re my friends, Dragon.” Parvati warned quietly, spraying her perfume into the air, “It’s just a double date, not a trip to the guillotine.”

“It’s Granger and Weasel – worse than any death sentence.”

Parvati shrugged, slipping on giant diamond earrings.

“Fine, but next weekend we’ll be doubling with the Goyles. It’s only fair if I go today.” He smirked darkly at his wife’s expression.

Five minutes later found Parvati regretfully firecalling Hermione – Draco had a sudden cold, you see – as the former Slytherin grinned ferally, pulling her toward their bed.

Getting Ready / Dropping Out

Mon, 23 May 2005 03:37:51 GMT

Title: Getting Ready
Author: abzurd
Characters: Patil Twins
Word Count: 100
Prompt: Blind Date
Team: (I thought I'd jump over for the week) Bangles

“You so owe me!” Padma growled from in front of the mirror where she worked her hair into a tidy knot at the back of her neck.

“Don’t you look beautiful,” the mirror croned, revealing a special lighting that would make anyone look good. Padma didn’t need anything to make her naturally olive skin vibrant but she appreciated the effort. She was continually unsure about herself around boys. Even boys as nice as Pavarti assured her these were. Normally, she wasn’t up for new experiences like this. Maybe she was growing as a person.

The fifteen knuts didn’t hurt things.

“Breathe.”

“I’m trying to,” she croaked, her eyesight already dimming to gray around the edges. It didn’t look like she was going to make it all the way to the front door at this rate. “I don’t think I can do this.”

Pavarti shook Padma’s arm but it didn’t do any good. The girl’s eyes were already starting to roll back in her head as she tilted toward the floor. With care not to wreck the delicate material of her dress, Pavarti ran for a wet towel to revive her with.

“Oh, great. We’re going to be late. Wake up!”

Nice Eyes? Check.

Word Count: 100.
Character(s)/Pairings: Harry/Parvati, Lavender, Hermione
Summary: Who cares if her blind date has nice eyes? Parvati just wants her fiancee.
Challenge: Blind Date (7)
Team: Beauty
Author's Notes (A/N): :D Comments Appreciated. A quick, crappy drabble. Sowee.

“He has nice eyes!” Lavender offered, pulling Parvati into the restaurant.

“I don’t care!” Parvati screeched, trying to dig her heels into the ground.

Harry, her fiancé, had been sent away on order business for six months by Dumbledore, and with no contact, Parvati had become a shell. She thought it insensitive for her friends to forcefully drag her on this blind date.

“Harry will win! He’ll be back soon!” Parvati wailed.

“We know.” Hermione said. “Oh! There’s your date!”

The man turned, roguishly grinning, facing her with familiar love-filled emerald eyes.

“Nice eyes.” She sniffled as he kissed her.

The Boggart.

Title: The Boggart.
Rating: PG.
Word Count: 100.
Character(s)/Pairings: Padma, Parvati.
Summary: Padma and Parvati are more alike than they think.
Challenge: The Boggart.
Team: None.

Padma fiddled with a lock of her hair, staring at her Transfiguration text intently.

“So, what was it?”

Glancing up, Padma raised an eyebrow. “What was what?” she asked.

Parvati rolled her eyes. She’d already shut her book, deciding that studying was not the order of the day. “Your boggart, what else is everyone talking about?”

“Er.” Padma released the lock of hair from her grasp, lowering her eyes to the book once again. “I didn’t get my turn,” she lied. Parvati would’ve laughed. What kind of an idiot was afraid of snakes, when Sirius Black was running about free?
