HP: Odds 'n Ends
Oliver Wood/Marcus Flint
About 130 words
Vague R
I'm positive this concept/framework is overdone in this pairing realm, but I like it.
Wood left bruises because he was a Gryffindor. Flint left scars.
It gave him reading material on nights when the rain was so loud, he couldn't sleep: the story he had scrawled in a ropey shimmering language on Oliver's skin.
Four years ago, his body had been the thick blank pages of a book. Oliver, of all people, seemed impervious to lasting injury. Just one more thing that was infuriating about him. But Flint fixed that. He'd fixed it with his nails, and his teeth. He'd fixed it with a broken bat, and the pint glass he'd thrown in a rage.
Wood stirred, rolling over with a drowsy groan, eyes opening to examine his bed partner. Marcus glared before turning his back and shutting his eyes.

Lily/Narcissa correspondence
I don't think I like this one overall, but I like the idea of Narcissa being overly dramatic.

Dear You,
He's asked, and I've said yes. I didn't think I'd be the first to break. With your family how it is, I figured you'd marry long before I did. He's really very sweet once you get past everything the arrogance.
I guess I've always been the one to face facts. We'll both be better off this way, and though he's not you, I do love him.
I'm sorry.

Lily,
You promised me! So much for Gryffindor nobility. I will never forgive you. You were supposed to be my savior, but it turns out you were only my frivolous rebellion.
I hate you.

And now I can't even love you secretly anymore, because you're dead. You've ruined my life, but I forgive you a hundred times.
Now I'm the one who's sorry.

Narcissa/Lucius
24 words
It is entirely possible that Narcissa ordered her school uniform one size too small that year, and that Lucius never knew what hit him.

I just lj-cut a sentance. Er, anyway...
