Theodore Nott x Hermione Granger

Nothing compares to a beautiful conversation with a beautiful mind.

The Dangling Conversation / [Theomione, M, 13K, Complete]

Theo Nott is, unequivocally, the most aggravating Healer that Hermione has ever worked with.

He’s also, without a doubt, the best.

You are cordially invited to the November celebration of the House of Nott - aptly named 'Nottvember'.

During Nottvember season, we embrace chaos and celebrate the creative hedonism in our fandom. That's why you'll find a mismatching list of prompts that is only vaguely coherent.

The prompts are sorted into 3 (unequal) categories:

- Quotes

- Setting the Scene

- Opening paragraphs

Quotes: Your creation is your interpretation of the prompt. If you're an artist, it can be a scene or a storyboard. If you're a writer, it can be as little as 1500 to a multi-chapter epic. You don't have to include the quote in the body of the work, just as a subheading.

Setting the Scene: Your creation must sit within the framework of the prompt. The details and how the plot unfolds are up to the creator's discretion.

Opening paragraphs: These must be the opening paragraph of the work. If you're an artist, please include the paragraph before leading in with your creation. The details of the opening paragraph have been left as vague as possible (gender, relationships) except for trope establishments (hero and villain). Please amend the opening paragraph to fit the context of your narrative.

While there is no submission deadline, entries will be revealed daily from November 1st 2022.

Claiming is open! So grab a drink, show us what you've got and let the party begin...

Secrets of the Heart

By: radiant_parsley

Summary:

One day, Thee's feet had turned without planning to, drifting closer to the girl who took notes with her quill backwards. The girl who wore red but had such Slytherin green eyes. Thee hadn't meant to be noticed. Thee hadn't really had a plan at all.

'Twas always thus, and always thus will be

By: Amarillis39

Summary:

“Only you would find beauty terrifying,” he said slowly, looking away from those hypnotising eyes. “Beauty is rarely soft or consolatory. Quite the contrary. Genuine beauty is always quite alarming*,” Nott supplied, and Harry was entranced by the mischievous smirk.

aporia

By: emilyinwonderland

Summary:

My executioner is blonde and tall. My hell is emptiness. It’s those listless, grey eyes that pass over me. The frown of his lips instead of that familiar upturn when I speak. It’s the hollowness I feel in my chest as I turn into a ghost amid the sea of students. A tinkle of laughter floats across the Great Hall. It’s golden light shining on our greyscale breakfast spread. I look up and see Potter and Weasley giving Granger some presents, and I can feel Draco scowl beside me.

He Paints At Night

By: Cannibalschism

Summary:

Prompt: Sketching/Painting and “Never love someone who treats you like you’re ordinary.” - Oscar Wilde. In the midnight hours when even the Hogwarts ghosts slumber in their quiet purgatories, he paints. It is not provocative or controversial. They are not brilliant masterworks, but everyday banalities. He paints at night. Every night. He paints at night and Theo watches him as he always has though he remains ever unseen. Draco paints and Theo writes. The Wizarding War is over, but the war in their souls rages on. They are remnants of a time that is past, and Theo knows Draco will never love him. But yet he watches the man who paints. Yet tonight there is a tenderness about him that Theo has not seen before. Dare he hope for a spark in the darkness?

A Trick of the Light

By: ceilingfan19 and skiamachy

Summary:

Wizarding Chess & “There is strong shadow where there is much light.” -- He stands in a sun ray warbled by the dusty cathedral glass windows, haloed by inky hair and dust motes swimming in the light. His face is pale and wan, eyes smudged with purple bruises, but his stare is sharp and intent. “Nott,” Potter says, warily. The caution is all Slytherin, though he should know better than to show it. Potter has good instincts, but they’ve quite clearly been blunted in Gryffindor. In Slytherin, they would be refined to a sharp edge. Theo gestures in a lazy circle around the chessboard and the pieces fly back into marching position. “Care for a game?” Potter squints. A cloud shifts over the sun and light flashes off his glasses, briefly obscuring his eyes. “I’m sure I’m no competition for you. But I suppose I have no reason to refuse.” He pauses, then grins wryly, flourishing his own wand to rotate the chessboard, placing the white king on his side and leaving the black for Theo. How droll.
