| | |  50 Ficlets for the Lucky Clover - Sa13+
Banner credit to Lissy Longbottom Hey everyone! I'm Casey and I am pleased to be writing half of these ficlets for my Diagon Alley intern, Cleo Rawthorne, along with the lovely Jess, for her Diagon Alley intern, Oliver Rose! However, as lovely as Jess is and as much as I would like to be, neither of us are J.K. Rowling. We just like to have her world constantly in our brains.

Knitting Charm Dear Oliver,
How have you been? My sister is at Hogwarts, my brother still at his school, and yet I am here at Beauxbatons: it seems unreal. Classes are fine, though I fear my French has gotten a bit not-as-practiced, since we moved to England this summer and all that.
What am I even saying? I am writing this as if its an essay. Sheesh!
So, how’s classes? I don't know how Durmstrang does things. For some strange reason, my dorm-mates have gone crazy and tried to teach me a knitting charm. Excusez-moi, but do I look like I want to knit? I didn't think so. Anyways... thought I'd keep in touch. Why not? We got ourselves nearly killed by dragons, why just stop there?
Snarkily yours,
Cleo | |

34. Point Me Dear Cleo,
And I'm at Durmstrang, you forgot that part. I've been busy, since father still thinks I'm going to be a Professional Quidditch player like he was. Why do I want that life? Nothing against the sport, but I am who I am. And I don't want to be a Quidditch Super Star.
Just like you don't want to become your grandmother, sitting in a rocking chair, knitting sweaters and scarves.
Classes aren't bad so far. I've picked up a few additional classes such as alchemy this term, as I think it will be valuable towards a future in security or stock-broker. Though, i really should have dropped something, as ten classes in my sixth year is quite the load, but if I want to be successful academically, then it's necessary.
Oh, Miss Rawthorne, please point me in the right direction. Point us. Somehow we'll find our way, away from snarky, sacastic Gringotts employees and friends or family who try to get us to do things we don't want to do. We'll make it.
Lost his way in academic overload,
Ollie

19. Jelly Legs Dear Ollie(cute nickname, by the way),
That’s right, I COMPLETELY forgot you were at Durmstrang. NOT. I just assumed that you would know that I missed you.
Just teasing you. I really do miss you. A lot.
Your father is a Quidditch Player? I am absolutely HORRIBLE at anything flying-related. Are you good? Not that it matters, do what you want to do. Gringotts with yours truly, hint hint? But TEN CLASSES in your sixth year? That’s crazy!
Of course I’ll point you. My darling mother sent me a letter with exactly which outfit I should wear my shoes - you know, the ones I wore while interning, that made me feel like someone cast a Jelly Legs jinx on me - so maybe we can just run away, together, away from parents telling us what we should do and how we should think.
Currently hoping my shoes will “spontaneously combust,”

14. Glisseo Dear Cleo,
FUNNY. But I didn't think you forgot, nor did I want you to, hence my constant reminder that miles between can only bring us closer.
And you better miss me. Cause if you didn't, then I don't know why we bother with these letters!
My father was a Quidditch Player; retired Kestrals Beater, after fourteen years. He retired to raise me, after my mom died. But grieving days are over, even though I still miss her, especially when dad is trying to persuade me to consider quidditch. I'm decent at flying - genetics, I guess. I'll train you next Summer, if you want? It's a neat hobby, just not a career option, for me at least. AND YES, ten classes! What can I say? I'm vying for success here. It's not that bad, really. Plus, most of them are interesting - except for this history class about the wizarding wars, which I'm writing you during, so I don't fall asleep.
You know, instead of hoping for a shoe combustion, might I recommend Glisseo?You could slide in them instead of having to try to walk in such shoes. It might make them better and easier on the feet.
Anyway, Professor Boring is wrapping up, so I should probably look focused for the last two minutes of class.
Keeping busy, but always thinking of freedom,
Ollie

1. Accio Dear Ollie(I still can't write your nickname without smiling),
I knew you were serious when you said your father was a Quidditch player, you know. I just thought it was really cool. I am not exactly known for my flying skills, but I would honestly love if you taught me to play. But do we have to wait until summer? I wish I could accio you over here. I miss you, Ol. I really do.
Anyway, classes here are pretty interesting, apparently not as interesting as your History of magic though. (That was sarcasm, Ollie). But you could transfer! Right? I'm sure you would fit right in.
Or maybe you wouldn't. The girls in my year are actually pretty snobby and all. They think that my having only half French "blood" with my dad being British, and therefore I'm less than them apparently. None of my mother's endless supplies of torture devices a.k.a. shoes could change their opinions of me. Any advice in that handsome head of yours?
Yours,
Cleo | |
