Two and a half drabbles, so a 250 words. I love drabbles, yay. ALSO, this is not in continuity with the rest of the chapters.

Prompt: "Fame"


It was not easy being the only daughter and youngest child of Harry and Ginny Potter Lily found. It was impossible to go on a family outing without someone wandering up to pester her parents either for autographs or for interviews. Harry was not only the Boy who Lived, he was also the Chosen One, and Vanquisher of the Dark Lord; her mother was also a war hero, and not to mention Captain of the Holyhead Harpies.

It was a lonely life at times; then again, at least she had her brothers and cousins to share the burden.


It was not easy being the only son of Draco Malfoy or the grandson of Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy Scorpius found. He came from a long line of malevolent bigots, although his father made a point to never use any racial slurs in front of him. But no matter how well his father cleaned up his act, no one would let him forget it, not would they let Scorpius. In public, he and his parents would receive dirty looks, or terrible treatment. Scorpius lost count of all the rude comments he got at school alone.

It was a lonely life, he found.


It was not easy being children of celebrities, both Scorpius and Lily knew this for a fact. It was lonely and miserable at times.

But at least, Scorpius thought as Lily slid her hand into his, it's not so bad when you have someone else to bear the burden with.
