Living in the Moment

by Rendered Reversed

Tricked into possessing a seemingly unfarmable plot of land, Tom Riddle is forced to make things work and build up his new life from scratch in Mineral Town. He expected eventual success, a lot of hard work, and several painstaking seasons of the "outsider" reputation... but no one ever mentioned falling in love with a god. A life story told in 100 word snippets. TMR/HP SLASH

8. Chapter 8

Warnings: future SLASH (boy x boy), MAJOR NO-MAGIC!AU (Alternate Universe, specifically the Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town setting), possible OOC, life story

Pairings: TMR/HP, implied AD/GG, implied KS/NT (Kingsley x Tonks), onesided JP/LE

Standard disclaimer applies: I do not own Harry Potter or any brand you recognize in this story. J.K. Rowling is credited with the creation of these characters (I'm not fond of using OCs in my own fanfiction). I also do not own the Harvest Moon series by Natsume.

"Oh dear Goddess above! This is terrible! What did you do to the place, burn it to the ground?" cried Harry, staring at the farm in shock.

"No. In case you haven't heard, I've been trying to save it. It isn't my fault the damn land's too stubborn!" sneered Tom.

"Oh," blinked the Harvest God. "In that case, shall we save the farm?"

"Please," he muttered under his breath, covering it with a sigh.

Tom quickly found out that just because Harry was helping, it didn't mean he was work free. The God gave increasingly strict and increasingly ludicrous instructions.

Posted in its full form on Ao3, except for the sequel and the eventual epilogue :). I'll be posting 5 of these per a day (I think?), but because it's long that might become 10 a day.
