I saw the first prompt and said, "Wow, that's spooky" as I have just started writng a re-telling of Lion, Witch and Wardrobe with HP characters. *shivers* But, these were lovely! I esp. like creepy!stalkerly!Sirius and Logical!Tom and Young!Severus!! WONDERFUL!! :-D

although, on second reading, Sirius isn't a creepy!stalker!! So sorry, my brain is mush. He's the White Witch's White KNight, only he wasn't able to save her! Maybe he can save Draco though!!

I kinda think the first drabble is fron Laocoons Children, where Sirius is a kind of father figure to Draco. If you haven't read those stories (by Sam, of course) then you really should -- they're an amazing ongoing retelling of Harry Potter.

Maybe that'll make it into the Deleted Scenes from the River House.

I like these, especially the second. I enjoyed what was between the lines in the conversation between Dumbledore and Riddle, and the logical attraction of Snape to Riddle.

both of these sent shivers down my spin !

White Witch: Wah. :(

You write the best pre-First-War Tom Riddle in fandom.

That's right. I said it.

Awww, thank you.

I find him endlessly fascinating, as I do Remus Lupin, because they both have so much potential to be SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING THAN JKR MAKES THEM. :D

have so much potential to be SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING THAN JKR MAKES THEM. :D

There are things I adore about HP books (except for the last one) but your statement could apply to just about any character in the first 5. JKR had great potential and wasted a lot of it on petty romance stupidity and taking the easy way out, instead of writing to the potential of the universe she created.

And I agree with Simon -- your young Tom ROCKS!

See, I would have pictured Bella as the White Witch....but that's mostly because in the book she has dark hair and is CRAZY. *shrugs* Very nice non the less.

Well, I wasn't really going for literally THE white witch so much as a white witch. But your point is valid!

I'd read these first from someone else's to-be-read list:) Thus, it was a sort-of surprise to find them here so fast.
