trinitydayDrabbles are great. You can write several in a day. I have written several today. It just gives me such a good feeling, to not only have finished *one* thing, but rather *several* things. Okay, so they aren't all refined yet. Who cares? (They possibly will be before I go to sleep tonight - I plan to read or write for the rest of the night.)
I can, however, post one right now. It was written for the HP100 challenge #27. Speaking of which, does anyone know if there's a way to simultaneously post the exact same post to more than one spot?
Anyway, the drabble:
Title: Cave Mors
Word Count: 100
Characters/Pairings: Sirius, James
Author's Notes & Ramblings: This wasn't meant to be slashy. Yet when I finished, I realized it could be taken in that way.
Death can be considered a culture shock, can't it? If some people are using the Muggle world as another country, I think I can use the afterlife as one, too.

“So, this is Death,” Sirius stated.
His companion nodded. “In all its glory.”
Sirius looked skeptically at the monotonous expanse. “Glory” wasn’t the first word he’d use. “This is death? This is what everyone’s afraid of? Azkaban was a hundred times worse. Hell, my house when I was growing up was worse. This? This is just...”
“The word is boring,” James said wryly.
“Very boring. What do we do around here?”
James grinned at him, harkening Sirius back to happier times, back when they’d both been alive. “I’m sure we can think of something.”
Prongs and Padfoot were together again.
