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."

Title: Golden Strand
Character(s): Draco and Scorpius
Rating: PG
Challenge: Strand
Word count: 100 words
Author's notes: With a name like Scorpius Hyperion, I couldn't resist.
"Nooo! Not my golden hair!" Scorpius clutched at his braid as if Draco was about to cast Crucio instead of a simple haircut charm.
Draco blamed his wife for letting their son wear his hair long ("But he looks so pretty, dear.") He had not pressed the issue since Scorpius was tutored at home.
But now the boy was going to Hogwarts, where the last male student with long hair was none other than Lucius Malfoy.
Draco sighed. "If you keep your marks up and become a prefect, you may grow your hair down to your arse with my blessings."
