"Late bloomer" (Scorpius, Draco, G, 100 words)
Title: Late bloomer
Character(s): Scorpius, Draco
Rating: G
Challenge(s): [info]slytherin_100's Late prompt & [info]draco100's absence of magic prompt
Word count: 100
Author's note: X-posted @ LJ



Scorpius was eight when he could no longer ignore the whispers. Grandfather and dad had been arguing for weeks, and Draco’s face was pinched with worry as they went to St Mungo's for their yearly check-up. The specialist threw around words like "trauma" and "absent maternal influence."

When they Flooed home, he turned to his dad and asked, "Are they saying that I'm a Squib because Mum died?"

"Scorpius, they don't know what they're talking about." He sounded tired and sad. "If that's true, then Harry Potter wouldn't have had an ounce of magic. Your magic isn’t absent, it’s just…late."
