Ganymede in the Eye of the Beholder
Title: Ganymede in the Eye of the Beholder
Author: prayer_at_night
Pairing: Severus/Harry
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG (perhaps)
Warnings: Harry is mutilating that myth, but other than that, none.
Challenge: #288 "Jupiter"
A/N: Alright, I'm terribly pissed (the friends we had invited for dinner only left a few minutes ago; for your information, over here it's almost 4 am!), so I'll make this pretty short.
Thanks to the wonderful red_day_dawning for beta-reading! *hugs*
Shit, I forgot! I promised Red to explain the following: The prompt is "Jupiter" which is the Roman name of the Greek god Zeus. The Ganymede myth specifically refers to Zeus, though, so it's Zeus in this drabble, not Jupiter. ...Was that understandable?@_@°



Ganymede in the Eye of the Beholder

“I just read-“

“Will wonders never cease?“

Chuckling, Harry poked Severus in the ribs.

“Arsehole. I just read the myth where Zeus falls in love with that guy and realizes his marriage was a stupid mistake. …A bit like us, aren’t they?”

Severus raised an eyebrow sceptically.

“If one ignores the fact that Ganymede was spectacularly beautiful-”

“You know what they say about ‘beauty in the eye of the beholder’.”

Harry looked up at Severus earnestly, caressing his cheek.

“I think you make a great Ganymede.”

Severus looked away and swallowed.

“Romantic fool.”

Harry grinned brightly.

“I love you, too.”
