Been meaning to send you this for a bit now and your post on non-dialogue prompts for the 5 lines thing reminded me! Listening to P!ATD and this line always makes me think of Draco "I lost a bet to a guy in a Chiffon skirt / But I make these high heels work" and also just the rest of the song. If you could work that into a drarry that would be wonderful!

(Sorry, I know you said it made you think of Draco, but when I started writing it, it ended up being Harry?)

“I lost a bet to a guy in a Chiffon skirt. But I make thesehigh heels work.”

Draco’s eyes fell to the shoes in question again.

“Well…I suppose they do make your legs look very…shapely…inthat…dress.”

Harry rolled his eyes as Draco gave up, and startedlaughing. He wobbled over to him, and leaned against the bar. There would betalk of it everywhere by morning, and no doubt photographs in the papers.Still, he never backed out of lost bets.

Besides, it was worth it to see the look on Draco’s facewhen he’d met him in the club.

“No dancing though,” he said, wincing. “I’ll probably breakan ankle.”

I love that hat pattern! And also the sweater (not only because of its name!). Yay for fun knitting!

I was in a super knitting funk the other night, I had NOTHING I was excited about knitting, then I found a new sweater to cast on, and last night I found a hat pattern for yarn that didn’t work for a different pattern. FUNK OVER!

Oooh, what sweater?! I want to cast on for another sweater, but alas, I do not have the yarn (or, really, the money to acquire a sweater quantity of yarn). And what hat?! I ended up taking about 2" of sock I started in October to frog because I didn't really like the pattern after all, and then looked for a new sock pattern and failed to find one...
