Percy and Oliver meet on the Quidditch Pitch on a stormy evening in late March, 1994.
Written for MuggleMaybe's Happy & Gay Challenge and Rumpelstiltskin's Companion Piece Challenge
Also written for Sam's (Dojh167's) birthday! <3

Oh my sammiest of Sams! Happy Birthday! <3
(More than a month late… but never mind that!)
When I saw your Percy/Oliver challenge (and especially when I saw that the deadline was your birthday) I really, really wanted to sign up, but I knew I wouldn’t have any time to get a story in before the deadline. But I resolved to get something written once I had the time, and now I have!
I had never written Percy/Oliver before this, never really seen the appeal even (though I have at least one Percy/Oliver on my AO3 ‘Marked for Later’ list…), but what are challenges for if not challenging you?
And once I started thinking about the ship, I could definitely see the appeal. When I finally started working on this, I actually had too many ideas. I knew I wanted to write this story, but another idea kept butting in, wanting to be written. Then I found Rumpel’s Companion Piece Challenge, and though, why don’t I write both? The challenge demanded three stories though, and that’s how you ended up with three birthday gifts from me this year. I hope that makes up for them being so late! : )
All the best, and lots of love,
