5 x 20 = 100

My best ideas have been done already by others, and done quite well. So here's a slightly different take. Five 20-word drabblets on the "we're gonna be expelled" theme; if that counts as 100, give my points to Ravenclaw.

Pansy figured that Trelawney wouldn't miss just one of her many trinkets; she never counted on that damn Inner Eye.

McGonagall was snogging Dumbledore, Hooch was fondling Sprout, and Snape...was glaring. At them. George gulped. "You said it was undetectable!"

"Mr. Weasley! How dare you sabotage your own team? Why?"
Ron shrugged. "Ten galleons on Hufflepuff at twenty to one."

The pig that had been Dudley squealed loudly; two minutes later, the Ministry owl arrived. But it was worth it.

I think they're all excellent, but for some reason, the one I like the best is

This one was actually the first one I wrote. I was trying to get it in 10 words (a tenth of 100!) but couldn't manage, so it gave me the idea to do 5 20-worders.

"Boy Who Lived, my arse."

Appalling! And delightful, especially the last one (although I can see Ron betting on Quidditch matches - oh dear. Sudden gambling debts plot bunnies run rampant...).

These are wonderful! And, yes, the last one is the money shot.

You know, it's short enough to put in a .sig file. Maybe that could be a cool new thing -- .sig fiction. Hmm...

I love it! The last two especially. The last one was so very Draco. I could see it happening. Just committed murder, and all he says is essentially, "Heh. Knew he wasn't so great after all."

And Dudley - heh. I actually feel a little sorry for him - he's been brought up so badly that nobody is ever going to like him. But I wouldn't blame Harry for turning him into a pig. The idea's been there since Hagrid's attempt in the first book, and it's reinforced by the fact that Draco turned into a ferret. Both transformations rather approriate, no?

=====================

You know, I never thought of that interpretation until I read your comment. To me, it sounded rather like an introduction.... [hum]

I'm with everyone else -- that last one is finger lickin' good. The rest are cool, too. Great job!
