six (plus) sentence sunday
thank u to the lovely @softlystarstruck and the delightful @apr1cots for tagging me! obligatory “this is more than six sentences.” a snip from my cooking wip where draco is not subtle about hounding out harry’s preferences but harry is so stupid that it doesn’t matter.
“Everything alright?” Harry asks.
“It’s just - I’m not sure I know how to find out,” Draco says. “If someone likes th- it. How can you tell?”
Harry squints. “What are we talking about?”
Draco crosses his arms and leans against the wall. “Coriander. How can you tell if people prefer coriander or parsley? Can you tell just by looking at them?”
“Erm,” Harry says. “You could just ask.”
Draco rolls his eyes. “I can’t just ask,” he says. “That’s far too forward.” He runs a hand through his hair, suddenly exasperated. “But then - some people seem like they’d prefer coriander, but they really prefer parsley. Or some people, you think you have completely pegged as a parsley fiend, but really they can’t get enough of coriander.”
Harry shrugs. “I like both.”
Draco’s eyes widen slightly at him, and then he snorts. “That figures.”
Harry studies him, the knit of his brow, the slight pink cast upon his cheeks. “Are we talking about herbs right now?”
