An As You Wish Cookie
Sep. 19th, 2004 10:56 amIt's going to be another hellish workweek but I've been messing around with As You Wish for the sake of my sanity.
Plus, I got inspired by that "Ghostwritten" Cyrano de Bergerac Snarry fic I just recced. Hee.
This is a little cookie for As You Wish - I think I need to go back to Prince Volderdink and Count Looshie Malfoy for a while and then slide THIS in and then the rest of the Snapercup/Hastley reunion. Heeeee....
Or I might tweak this little thing a bit more. Never mind. Just for the fun of it and to get myself into the writing groove again...
Yes, this involves "Papa." *grin*
"Is this a private party or may I come in?" A familiar, well-beloved voice purred from the doorway.
Katerina was delighted. "Papa!" And then she scowled, looking, had she been aware of it, so remarkably like Papa in one of his "moods" that Daddy had to turn away to hide a smile. "You didn't bring any more icky potions for me to drink, did you?"
Papa smirked. "No 'icky potions,' bratling - at least not right now."
"Then you may join us," Katerina announced grandly.
"Yes, your highness," Papa mocked lovingly and with a practiced flick of his wand, lifted Katerina off the bed, blankets and all, making her squeal in delight. He then proceeded to make himself comfortable in her place, sitting next to Daddy, who was watching everything with barely concealed amusement.
"Oi!" Katerina said in mock indignation, still floating in the air. "What about me?"
"Oh, were you up there, bratling?" Papa said absent-mindedly, doing a very good impression of Grandpa. He held out his arms and Katerina floated back into his lap, cuddled comfortably between him and Daddy. "There, that's better, isn't it?"
She giggled. "Daddy was getting to the Good Stuff in this story."
Papa raised an eyebrow and looked at Daddy. "The Good Stuff?"
"You know," Katerina said. "The kissing stuff."
Papa's dark eyes went wide. "Isn't she too young for the...er, 'kissing stuff?'"
"I am NOT too young!" Katerina protested. "I'm a girl! Of COURSE I like the kissing stuff in stories!"
"What have you been reading to her?" Papa demanded of Daddy.
Daddy rolled his eyes, his cheeks stained just a bit pink. "Honestly, love - it's not as if she DOESN'T see US... um, 'kissing' all the time."
"A child feels secure and loved when she sees her that her parents love each other," Katerina declared in her best imitation of Aunt Hermione. Which made Papa choke and Daddy laugh. "So there."
"In any case, I already threatened her with convent school," Daddy said wryly.
"As well you should!" Papa said sternly. "Immediately. As soon as she reaches puberty."
Katerina rolled her eyes. "Silly Papa."

Don't tell #2 Child I gave away her study inspiration brownies!
I don't know if I've mentioned her to you, but I wonder if you've read any of WeaverOffate's stories. Her user info on The Site That Shall Not Be Named is here:

I think you might like her work; it's well thought out, without too much of teh angst.
I just got your message about YIM. I don't have it set up, (and I never log onto AIM -- I always forget) but I will if it means I can chat with you! I'll let you know when I do it!
