For cutthroatpixie, who requested it in this post, a Bellatrix-Walburga drabble.

 

 

“He’s tiny.”

 

“He’s a infant, Bella.”

 

“And sort of wrinkled. And red. And extremely unprepossessing.”

 

“Seems we have an art critic on our hands.”

 

“Bella’s always had impeccable taste. Darling, you remember Sirius was much the same. And Narcissa.”

 

“I wasn’t.”

 

“Oh, no. How could Bella be aught save perfect and beautiful?”

 

“Can I play with him?”

 

“Not just yet. He’s… a tad fragile.”

 

“Honestly, Aunt Walburga, I won’t break him.”

 

“Of course not, Bellatrix. However… Kreacher?”

 

“Mistress?”

 

“Put Master Regulus to bed.”

 

“Yes mistress.”

 

“That’s what you’re calling him?”

 

“Yes. It means little king. Don’t you approve?”

 

“It’ll do.”

I have an inner Walburga. This scares me.

This is really well executed. I love well played dialog only drabbles and this really is. The voices are clear and distinct, requiring no direction from you to know who is who.

You draw clear characters with few words.

A lovely snapshot.
