Character: Charlie
Rating: general
Note: Drabble written for florahart for holiday 2007.

Charlie wonders, sometimes, what his life would be like as a Muggle, or if he had been born a Squib. He wouldn't have gone to Hogwarts, wouldn't have played Quidditch, wouldn't now be working with dragons, which he loves. He would perhaps have played rugby at school instead, and been captain of the school team. He's not sure what job he might have held, until one evening, when he's in England on holiday, visiting Ginny and Harry, he sees a program on Muggle television about whales and hears their songs. Whales, he thinks, would be a worthy substitute for dragons.
