Title: front line
Characters: Victoire Weasley and Scorpius Malfoy.
Notes: Victoire really does not like little Scorpy. Anyway, thank you so much for the support, and maybe try to check out my new freeverse series, Any Other Name, which is from the same universe as this one, but centered around Rose. Thank you, and enjoy!
/what is war?\
Scorpius Malfoy; you crept your way in,
didn't you,
Slytherin soldier?
You hid behind your trench for as long
as you could,
before you deemed it safe
to sprint across No Man's Land,
hand in hand
with my little cousin.
I'm daring you to hurt Rosie, little boy;
because it won't be
just ME
coming after you, you hear?
\incoming, scor/
.
/war is scary\
Be careful about the corners you look round;
sleep with one eye
(( open ))
and keep peering over your shoulder,
as you cross that line.
It only takes one slip up,
Scor,
but boy, there are banana skins
all over this floor.
We'll shoot you down, Scorpius,
because no one takes
one of our own
this easily.
\better duck/
.
/war is ugly\
I don't think you quite understand -
your plan's not foolproof,
and that helmet's
just a piece of metal,
and don't you know that hearts don't mend so easily?
Take out your bandages,
heal those wounds
and kiss them better,
but it won't always work, you hear?
We're just waiting at the front line;
hurt her,
babe,
and we'll let the cannons sound,
because war isn't pretty,
is it?
\you and what army?/
.
/war is deadly\
If there's one thing
about our side
that I cannot fault for the life of me
then it's their loyalty.
((ready))
We're all front line soldiers, Scor,
and try as you might,
you can't hide behind your trench forever.
Come out, come out!
Guns are blazing,
and you're missing the action, boy.
((aim))
Rosie's out there, don't you know?
In the middle of No Man's Land.
On the front line.
Fighting on your side.
Maybe this is the end, Malfoy.
((fire))
\because darling, this is war/
