In Which Harry is Unexpectedly Generous
Two champions stared at the trophy at the center of the maze, then turned to stare at each other. Cedric and Harry stood there awkwardly, wondering who would get to win. The Puff Prince was about to suggest that Harry take the prize, as he wouldn't have been able to get there without the Gryffindor Golden Boy, when Harry shrugged and gestured for Cedric to take it.
"Meh, you can take it. I don't need the cash, or the eternal glory or whatever. I'm honestly just happy I'm alive and still somewhat sane after this crazy-ass tournament. Go ahead; I'm sure Hufflepuff house could use some fame and glory, even if you don't need the money either."
Cedric was about to argue, but then Harry had already started walking back into the maze. "I'm going to go blow stuff up until the time limit goes up. I'll say I got distracted by some glowy thing when I get asked. Or maybe a group of Bunnies... See ya around, Ced!"
I feel bad about not updating for a while, ranting, and then giving you all such a short chapter, so happy New Year!
Bonus: In Which Dumbledore Tries to Enjoy His Tea
Dumbledore sighed in relief as he stared out of one of Hogwarts' many windows. The year was almost over and there hadn't been a single Voldemort sighting. Even with the whole fiasco revolving around the three remaining Marauders, nothing irreplaceable had exploded and no Dark Marks had been seen floating in the sky, so Albus was counting it as a win. It was good to finally be able to relax without fearing that the Light's only hope would get randomly Avada Kedavra'd in one of Tom Riddle's ridiculously complicated plots while he wasn't looking.
The powerful Headmaster decided that it would be a perfect time to relax with a cup of tea and some lemon drops in order to celebrate another year gone by somewhat smoothly.
Of course, he spoke too soon.
The man who fought for the Greater Good had scarcely taken a sip of his tea when the loud voice of the Light's Savior drifted through the window from the courtyard below, and Albus found himself groaning as he heard what his favorite student was saying. "Hermione, Ron! Look what I found in the Room of Requirement! Be jealous of my new super cool tiara thing! It's kinda Ravenclaw-ish, but doesn't the blue go with my eyes? It keeps hissing at me and telling me to kill muggleborns, but I think I'd rather just play dress up with it!"
Dumbledore stubbornly refused to get up. By Merlin, he was going to finish his relaxing tea if it was the last thing he did!
Besides, how much trouble could a diadem possibly be?
I know they didn't know about the Room of Requirement until Dobby showed them in fifth year, but whatevs. I think it'd be funny if Harry stumbled upon the diadem on accident. :3
