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

66. Chapter 66

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.

"Ah, Tom! Are you here for the confessional?" Remus Lupin asked kindly, like he usually did on Mondays.

"Not today," the farmer replied handing over a jar of honey, the usual gift he had come around to bringing almost daily.

Remus thanked him. "Well, you're always welcome here, Tom, and at the confessionals doubly so. If you're having any troubles, feel free to stop by any time—I'll always lend an open ear."

Tom considered it. He was confused with the whole mystery the Harvest God represented. "I know," he said, more honest than anything he had said that day.

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.
