Dec21, Harry Potter, Kingsley/Severus, Lady Fate
Title: Lady Fate
Fandom: HP
Pairing: Kingsley/Severus

Note: For angela_snape who wanted Kingsley/Severus, belladonna. The scientific name for the plant, Atropa belladonna, is thought to derive from the Greek goddess Atropos, the one of the three Fates who cut the threads of life.
"That's the devil's herb."
The voice came from behind Severus as he stood in Slug & Jiggers, reaching for a bottle.
"Some call it that, yes," he agreed, and looked over his shoulder at Kingsley. "It's also known as naughty man's cherries, were you aware?"
"I was." Kingsley smiled a slow smile. "I didn't know you were."
Severus caught the glint in the other man's eye. "You should know me better."
"I'd like to."
That was blunt enough, Severus thought. "I've a room at the Leaky Cauldron," he mentioned.
"I'll buy you a drink," Kingsley said, "and we'll toast Lady Fate."
