    Summary

    "Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”

    “What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.

    “Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

    Summary

    Billy distracts himself by massaging his legs, wanting to make sure everything is warmed up. Someone will likely get taken out by a muscle cramp. Billy won’t be that person. He digs his fingers into his calves with a measured intensity, rubbing his thumb from the back of his heel all the way up to the back of his knee. He focuses on getting his body ready and mind in the right headspace. There’s just one issue.

    He can feel the heavy weight of someone staring at him.

    He lifts his gaze up back towards that group of people from before, the one with the guy eating the clementines and the other man with the cross necklace. They all seem invested in a conversation with the exception of the blond man to the far right.

    He has haunted eyes.
    * * * * * * *
    OR Billy Stebbins is prepared to win the Long Walk. He just wasn't expecting there to be a man with haunted eyes that would cause such a distraction. Inspired by the Day 2 prompt for The Long Walk Rare Pairs Week: Devotion.

    Summary

    The sixth time, Ray fills in the end of one of Pete’s jokes and Hank Olson says, “Do you two know each other?”

    “Yeah,” Pete says, grinning at Ray, watching him flush. “We go way back.”

     

    Or, the road doesn't want 50 people dead on it each year. This creates a great deal of trouble for the boys it decides can stop that.

    Summary

    Pale, thin scars mark Gary’s arm from his wrist to halfway up his bicep. Some are in straight, almost neat lines, one right after the other, while some of them crisscross each other with a jagged ferocity. Overall, there’s more raised masses of tissue than unmarked skin. There’s no need to ask what caused them, and there’s no way Collie ever would. It’s obvious.

    “Well?” Gary snaps, apparently thinking Collie’s been silent for too long. “Can you fix this or not?”

    Or: Gary Barkovitch walks into Collie Parker's tattoo shop looking for a scar coverup, and ends up becoming much more than just a client.
