3. In the Greenhouse with the Hugs

Prompt: Hero(ine)

.

It's mostly stares and whispers up until Luna Lovegood catches Lavender and Parvati as they enter greenhouse four. Lavender hardly sees her before she's wrapped in Luna's arms.

"Oi!" Parvati manages before Luna releases Lavender and turns the same greeting on her. Just as taken aback, Parvati stands still with her mouth hanging open.

With a final squeeze, Luna steps back and takes one of each of their hands in hers, smiling into their bewildered faces.

"You're both so brave," she says. "I couldn't do it. Bumpinutskis, you know."

Then she's walking away, and they can only stare after her.
