Continued from where the big drabble chain I did for the Halloween Challenge left off. There is a total of nine drabbles before this one, with only 985 words of actual story between them. They are posted together here.

These may seem familiar if you were following the holiday challenge last year over at dramionedrabble. All the fics I wrote (or will write) for that site will be tagged with "dramionedrabbles" as I post them here.

I had this idea a while back, but it wants to be a massive plot-bunny and I'm not ready to tackle it yet...
I did type up the basic/general/tip-of-the-iceberg ideas though (without going into all the details I had in mind), so I wouldn't forget if/when I'm ready to try such a project.  I got to thinking about it, and I'm wondering if it would make a good challenge the way it is; maybe submitting it to Granger Enchanted or the Petulant Poetess and letting other fic authors take a crack at it...

So, here's the idea.  Let me know what you think:  Good idea?  Would it work as a challenge?  Is there somewhere else I should submit the idea maybe?  Or, does it really just belong in the rubbish bin?

This is Part Two of my Dramione Drabbles for the Twelve Days of Halloween Challenge at dramionedrabble. Part One had the drabbles that didn't fit into this chain.

Author: artsy_aura
Characters/Pairing: Draco and/or Hermione (it was originally posted on a Dramione site after all) ;-p
Rating: K (all of them)
A/N: Each drabble, except for the last, is exactly 100 words, and all were written for a one-word prompt. There's no set time period for these, although it's most likely AU sometime after GOF.
Disclaimer: No. I'm not British, Japanese, or male. That pretty much covers anything I might consider writing fan fiction about.

Since it's October, I thought I'd post a couple of creepy manips I made (the creepiness was accidental, both times).  Sort of a pre-Halloween entry:

Here are the pics of my Hermione doll and her accessories, and believe it or not, this is the first time I've tried making a doll...

First is her 'book':

I'm a member of an art studio, where people with various interests go to make their art and learn tips and techniques from the other artists.  Fridays are our 'Craft Day', where we do different projects to introduce new media that we might want to try out.  A while back the project was 'sock dolls'.  What our studio turned out though was nothing like what I had pictured when I heard the name of the craft.  We actually, last night, had an exhibition of our dolls at the main branch's gallery.  (On the 1st Friday of each month there is  a city-wide gallery show, and people can just walk from gallery to gallery to see what the local artists are doing.  Some artists even display their work along the side of the road.)

I got extremely carried away with my doll, and the many, many, many accessories I made for her.  (I ended up needing a whole display table to myself -the others were three dolls to a table- and most of the accessories were still in the box!)  But I had so much *fun* with it, and kept getting ideas... didn't end of finishing the last piece until Thursday night.

I made Hermione, from the Prisoner of Azkaban (book, not movie).  I also made Crookshanks, her wand, the time-turner, her entire books list, some elf hats, a potions kit, scrolls and quills, a  falling-apart-at-the-seams satchel, shopping bags from the (named) stores in Hogsmede, and (since I happened to have a book-shaped box already) I made a storage box for her things.  I made the box look like it had a red leather cover, with gold accents and gilded pages, and titled it "Hermione Granger and the Prisoner of Azkaban"; the inside is lined with black felt and satin ribbon.
*blushes/winces*
You might say that I got a little carried away.
^_~
The 'resident photographer' at our studio took several pictures, which I'm hoping *crosses fingers* he'll e-mail to me tonight.  I'm planning on posting them whenever I get them.
^_^
Well, just thought I'd share.

Title: He Knows He's Obsessed

Summary: He has an unhealthy obsession for her; he knows it; but he just doesn't care. (A simple one-shot ficlet.)

Rating: PG

Word Count: 287

A/N:  This was written with two fandoms and particular pairings in mind (but I'm sure it'll fit others as well). I had noticed many similarities between the characters and wondered if I could show what (might) be going on behind the scenes and be able to make it work, in canon, for both. For Harry Potter it was Draco/Hermione, and for InuYasha it was Sesshomaru/Kagome.

(Chapter title: Obsession)

---***---***---***---

He watches her obsessively from the shadows, but only when no one else can observe what he's doing. At times, when duties or circumstances keep him away from her too long (like an addict in need of a fix), he comes out of the shadows to confront her in person. Luckily, or unluckily as the case may be, she is rarely alone. This allows him to get closer to her than he would otherwise permit himself with the convenient cover of insulting, attacking, or abusing in general her companions (and *him* in particular). They are much too close to her for his taste, and therefore deserve all the punishment he can dish out.

Of course, she being who she is can never stay on the sidelines when one she cares for is in danger (just look at how many times she has been injured or nearly killed over that fool), so she will doubtlessly intervene. And this is where the junkie gets his fix: a verbal spar here, some threatening gestures there, perhaps in the heat of the moment he may even touch her (saying afterwards how disgusting he found it, of course); but after these encounters he always leaves on a high – no matter how badly injured or insulted he may be.

After such meetings he can return to the shadows for months at a time, satisfied, until the urge to see her becomes a hunger too great to hide and he is off to 'confront his enemies' once again.
