This is taking a lot out of me... very, very weird.

He stared at him for a few moments, then slipped down off the workbench, brushing off his trousers. “You are an idiot. Really. I mean,” he pressed his fingertips above his right eye, “I have to go.”

And then he was gone. And it wasn’t the first time that someone had left after he’d poured out a little bit of his heart, but he was fairly certain it was the first time someone had left because they thought he was an idiot.

Sorry for the MIAness and random bits of my new work... I may need a beta when it's done though.

It's pretty much all about Ernie.

New ficlet: This Is Not A Story About Lavender

Title: This Is Not A Story About Lavender
Rating: Really, I think it's only PG
Summary: AU, non-magic. Ernie doesn't realize he's lost everything until Lavender startles her way back into his life, and ends up giving him more than he ever wanted. This is not HET. This is SLASH.

Author Notes and Important Preambles: So I sat down with the intention of writing a Harlequin-esqe Harry Potter AU. Cheesy romance at it's best. I looked on the Harlequin site for inspiration, but none of the amazingly bad summaries jumped out at me... I couldn't picture anyone in those roles. So I thought to myself: Dude, you can totally come up with a cheesy romance plot on your own! I immediately thought: Psychic!Lav! It totally works. And she goes home to... farmboy!Ernie! So we've got the future (Lav) and the past (Ernie) and then I thought... we need someone to shake things up. And thus a new pairing was born.

This ended up being mostly about Ernie, though. I think it's still waaaaay cheesy, and a little angsty, and a little fluffy. And I also think this might as well be original since it's long-gone beyond AU and into the land of "you made Seamus a dog?" Dudes. I totally did.

Extra notes: Working title. Unbeta'd. The pace and transitions are reminiscent of The Commune Love Story. Technically the first draft, so let me know if you see any glaring holes. Also, the ending is lame. You already know I suck at endings though *nods*
