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

29. Chapter 29

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.

"Our God's been treating you well?" Kingsley asked one day after graciously accepting Tom's gift of a boiled egg. The policeman was apparently a firm believer of the Harvest God, which was why he had been so quick to believe the truth.

Tom raised a brow. "Should you really be asking that?"

"We're both curious," inputted the carpenter.

"Be more so about our policeman's, hmm… association with the Tonks' only daughter," Tom retorted, causing the carpenter to begin to eye Kingsley with a curious glint.

Kingsley cursed under his breath and glared at the farmer. "It's nothing," he uselessly declared.

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.
