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

117. Chapter 117

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.

With a mischievous eye, the carpenter sent Tom a look. "I'd say you could just give Him flowers, since your storage of crops won't last forever, but they're more of a neutral gift for Him… and you want to impress Him, right?"

The farmer swallowed down his pride and didn't say anything.

Kingsley outright laughed this time. "Stop teasing, Gellert."

"Romancing the Harvest God is a serious matter," the carpenter retorted. "I absolutely must know if he's serious or not. You know young'uns these days, always up and about—"

It was the carpenter's suggestive tone that made Tom choke.

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.
