Description Some Fred Weasley x Detective Nox drabbles and half-arsed fanart. These drabbles take place in the HP Ouroborous universe, more commonly known as the Twin Vice Paranormal Detectives fanfiction sequence.


#01 - Hero

Fred always wanted to be a hero and now that's exactly what he is, but being six feet under and pushing up daisies, he can't help but feel a bit cheated.

#02 - Memory

When Fred first met Nox he thought she was a gangly, sharp-witted, cynical Muggle with a disquieting habit of insulting people without realizing it. He never for a moment suspected that these were the things he would come to love about her the most.

#03 - Silence

In her first month living in Weasley Manor, Detective Nox learned not to fear the noise and frequent explosions that came from the twins' laboratory, but rather to fear the silence, and the scheming it disguised.

#04 - Box

After half a dozen black eyes, bloody noses and a few alarming canary transformations, Nox learned never again to open a box addressed from the twins.

#05 - Talent

Fred has a talent for making trouble. Nox has a habit of getting into it.

#06 - Candle

They worked long nights back then and in those last few days before their final case together Nox found herself stealing quick glances at Fred's face, admiring the way the candlelight softened his normally wickedly mischievous features.

#07 - Heart Beat

The human heart was a funny old thing, Fred mused. It was the centre of a fleshie's universe, figuratively and factually speaking. The heart worked tirelessly around the clock, pumping two thousand gallons of blood throughout the body, beating one-hundred thousand times a day, and what did it get in return? Blame for all the grief, bitterness, hurt, vices and heartbreak a fleshie ever suffered; quite a record for one apple-sized pump.

Across the office, Nox was shuffling papers importantly, trying in earnest to look anywhere else but him. Fred smiled. He'd certainly been careless to lose his heart twice.

#08 - Cold

The first time Fred's ghostly arms wrapped around her shoulders it felt like she had been plunged into a bucket of ice cold water, but these days when he brushes against her there's a different feeling; a prickly heat that's far more unnerving.

#09 - Gravity

"Why are you so afraid of heights anyway?" asked Fred, smirking devilishly.

"I'm not afraid of heights," she replied indignantly. "I'm afraid of gravity."

#10 - Breath

Distantly Fred remembers a fraction of time when the light burst in his vision and his breath ceased, and he descended stiffly into darkness with his last joke still tugging at the corners of his mouth. He's dead as a doornail, bereft of life, kicked the bucket and well and truly shuffled off his mortal coil, but one kiss makes him forget all that. And as he looks at Nox, he realises.

We save lives in such unlikely ways.

Aw, cheers mate! I wasn't so sure about these myself as they were really a writing exercise more than anything else, but I'm so glad you like them.

They make my own pitiful excuse for writing pale, faint, and die from asphyxiation in comparison. T'was an epic experience reading them. (And the picture!!! Vunderful, as Krum would say. <--Geek) Anywho, you are very welcome, and i shall go off somewhere else to read, squee, and faint again, as to not mar the floor with dents when I fall over. (Yay for the literally hard-headed people!!!)

Cheers! Glad you like them. I always find drabbles are great writing practise, even if they do come out a bit uninspired (like I feel these are XD).

Guess I'll be the second to absolutely agree with being afraid of gravity. And that was so sweet it completely baffled me. Stunned. I did not know you were such a hopeless romantic (or at least could write like you are one). It's almost nauseating, in a completely okay way.

And the picture, you've managed to portrait them perfectly shy and curious and something I'm not sure there is a word for in the English language. I almost feel like an intruder in a very private moment when I look at it.

I'm not a HOPELESS romantic...much. Ok, well, maybe just for Fred. ¬_¬ Don't worry, the romance in TVPD won't be this level of nauseating (and if it is you have to tell me so I can burn it and start again! ). Thank you so much for the lovely comment dude.

"I'm not afraid of heights," she replied indignantly. "I'm afraid of gravity." <- I agree wholeheartedly with this statement

the drabbles are cute

As do I! Gravity and I are mortal foes.

Cheers! Yeah, I find drabbles make for excellent writing practise.
