The first week of May isn't even over yet, and I've already started slacking off on the drabbles. To be fair, I've been working on a multi-chaptered Final Fantasy story that's eating away at what's left of my brain. So here's a 300 word ficlet to make up for my utter and complete fail.

Title: Chasing Draco
Characters: Harry/Draco, Blaise
Rating: PG-13

Title: Seven Simple Rules for Living With Draco Malfoy
Authors: ships_harry and nishizono
Characters: Harry/Draco
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: They aren't ours.

Summary: Sometimes, Harry thinks Draco should come with an owner's manual.

Author's Notes: There are chat logs to accompany this madness, which we'll probably post whenever I (Nishi) stop being lazy long enough to format them properly. All you need to know is that this came about during a conversation involving earmuffs, kiddie leashes, and accidental sodomy. Which sounds pretty bad when the subjects are all lumped together in one sentence like that.

Title: Lusus Naturae
Author: nishizono
Characters: Tom Riddle
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Sadly, they aren't mine

Summary: Once upon a time, I was human.

Author's Notes: I sat down to write some high-kink porn. Instead, Tom Riddle decided to explain to me just how he came to be Lord Voldemort, and why. The result is, I believe, the only gen fic I've ever written.

Title: The Bat
Author: nishizono
Pairing: Severus/Sirius
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Sadly, they aren't mine.

Summary: Once upon a midnight cheery, while I stumbled drunk and bleary...

Author's Notes: For nehalenia, though I'm not really sure this is something she'll ever want associated with her name. This was originally titled "The Fried Chicken Poem", but I chickened out (Hah! I fucking kill myself). Obviously, this is based on Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven", though it bears very little resemblence to the original (and I've completely butchered anything that might have resembled a proper meter).

Title: Letters from Azkaban, Epilogue
Author: nishizono
Pairing: Severus/Lucius
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Sadly, they aren't mine

Summary: “I’ll bet that you’re quite enjoying this, aren’t you? The idea of your old compatriot holed up in Azkaban, with only your irritating missives to keep him company." -Lucius Malfoy in a letter to Severus Snape

Author's Notes: Romance, humor, and a light dusting of fluff. Please see: Catch 22, Lettered, The Shoebox Project, and various other stories with a similar theme. I've never seen it applied to this pairing, so I thought that perhaps Severus and Lucius should enjoy their own version.

Title: The Victory of Sisyphus
Author: nishizono
Pairing: Severus Snape/The Baron
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1630
Disclaimer: Sadly, they aren't mine

Summary: But then, Severus supposes, when have ghosts ever paid heed to the castle’s wards? His certainly never have.

Author's Notes: This was more difficult than I imagined it would be, and I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the result. I feel that a warning for character death may be in order.

Title: Advent
Author: nishizono
Pairing: Severus/Lucius
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Sadly, they aren't mine
Archive: Anyone, just let me know first

Summary: “You’re coming to Christmas dinner, Severus. You can protest, or you can come willingly, but one way or another, you’ll be there,” Lucius said with a smirk.

“Bah humbug,” said Severus, and slammed the door in his face.

Author's Note: This story was inspired by the advent calendar style updating of Until Death Do Us Part, by snapelike and ldybastet. They are both (probably unknowingly) responsible for my love affair with this pairing, and their writing inspires me on levels that I never thought possible through fanfic. As such, it seems only fitting that this story be dedicated to them. Thank you both for your contributions to the Harry Potter fandom, and Happy Christmas.

(This fic is set in the Bad Faith universe. As such, those of you who have read Bad Faith will pick up on certain references that I hope will make reading this story more enjoyable. However, the story does stand on its own, and no prior knowledge of Bad Faith is purely optional)
