McGonagall had tried to forbid eighth years from socializing in House common rooms. This, however, had proven impossible to enforce. If an eighth year “former” Hufflepuff was dating a seventh year current Hufflepuff, could staff really stop them cuddling on a Hufflepuff couch? Thus, eighth years had ignored this ruling from day one, and it was very easy for Harry and Draco to avoid one another.
And thank Merlin for that, too, because with this being NEWT year, no one had time for all the detentions that would have arisen from them attempting to share the eighth year common room.

Dearest Mother,
I understand why you invited Harry to Boxing Day tea, but my life would be so much easier if only you had asked me, first. Harry and I were never serious, no matter what he says or thinks. I am your obedient son. I will happily marry whatever suitable young pureblood girl you think best for our family’s future. I have always known my duty in this, and look forward to fathering many beautiful children and raising them to the greatness of the Malfoy name. Or, at least, raising them to reinstate the greatness of the Malfoy name.

I allowed Harry to speak publicly of our liaison, for I assumed a dalliance with him could only raise our social capital. I assure you, I am no homosexual, though Harry is easy on the eyes. He has other positive attributes, obviously. He is kind, intelligent, and adventurous. His bravery, plainly, is world-renowned.
With all these advantages, I assumed you would not object to my dalliance. But I never thought you would mistake an opportunistic, Slytherin move for some sort of… permanent lifestyle announcement.
We both know faggots are, frankly, gross, feminine, cowards. I, of course, am none of those.

I know it puts you in an awkward position, but please withdraw his invitation. Perhaps you have mentioned it to friends, perhaps they are impressed. If you cannot withdraw it, I should stay upstairs.
Harry and I no longer get along. Proximity is unpleasant. It leads to raised voices, and -- as uncouth as he is -- probably hexes. As admired as he is, he has no intrinsic understanding of Pureblood customs, manners and traditions.
To be blunt, this won’t be easy. I know it. But you can’t make me do this, Mummy. I’ll cry if you make me.
Love, your baby

*shakes head*
I want to smack them both for different reasons. *sigh*
I'm betting Narcissa sorts them out. *g*

Date: 2017-11-20 07:24 am (UTC)As for this one, I have high hopes for Narcissa, too, but dayyam these two are stupid and immature, so.... we'll see what happens! That's the fun and nerve-wracking thing about writing for this comm. I have no idea where these things are going before I start posting!
