(Author's note: I always found it strange that most fics seem to forget that Teddy and Draco are actually quite closely related, and that even with the rare fics that do remember, seem to only want to use it for angst.

I, personally like to imagine that Teddy and Draco have a very odd, but good relationship with each other. This is just an attempt to show one conversation between them.)


"You remember the wedding, right?"

"You mean the one with Astoria in it?"

"...Yes..."

"Oh, yes! I mean, I don't remember much, I mean I was only four or five, but I remember some things. Astoria was super nice, and told me to call her Astoria, and the wedding was...okay, but there wasn't any cake."

"I know, it was dreadful. I talked to Astoria about that, you should know, I tried to tell her, I said, 'what kind of a wedding doesn't have cake?!' But did she listen? No! Instead, she had. Wedding. Tapioca. Pudding. ...Wedding pistachio-flavoured tapioca pudding! Merlin!"

"You are so right, there should have definitely been cake instead of tapioca!"

"Yes! I don't even care that it's been ten years, I am still upset about that! Yes, changing tradition is fine, there are limits - like common taste!"

"And you're right! Every wedding should have cake! It's not a proper wedding without one!"

"Exactly!"

"...So anyway, speaking of cake...have you got any?"

"...Wait, was that compliment earlier just to charm me into giving you food?"

"...Maybe~"

"Fine, I'll go get the cake...honestly, you are so cunning sometimes I wonder why the Hat didn't put you into Slytherin rather than Hufflepuff.."

"Oy, Hufflepuff is full of all kinds of people - that's what makes it so great in the first place!"

"If you say so..."

"Oh, can you get the chocolate one? The one with the sugar roses? Those are my favorite, they're the best."

"Ugh, I'm spoiling you...fine, what color do you want?"

"Um, the light purple kind? The roses, of course, not the cake."

"Of course. Just wait for a minute, I'll find it...oh, found it. Coming right up."

"Oh thanks! So much! This cake looks so beautiful, I think that your frosting skills have somehow gotten even better, Draco!"

"Yes, yes, I'm brilliant, now just carry on and eat the cake, already."

"THANKS!" *starts devouring immediately*

Note: This is just a conversation between Teddy and Draco that I can't get out of my head, so I wrote it down for fun, don't take it too seriously. It's probably not even that great quality anyways, I'll probably look back on this in a few months and be embarrassed haha oh well...

Also, this is probably just a silly, pedantic tic of mine, but it really, really bothers me when people describe Teddy and Draco's relation incorrectly. PSA: they are not "second cousins" (that's Teddy and SCORPIUS!) and Draco is not Teddy's "uncle." They are [first] cousins ONCE REMOVED. Please.
