Title: Game Time
Characters: Rolanda Hooch/Clara Ivanova
Prompts: nonverbal communication
Word Count: 1930
Rating: Hard R (because it's not super explicit but I'm crap at ratings)
Warnings: this is femmeslash for the hp_femsmut International Day of Femslash Challenge

Summary: Set before Harry Potter comes to Hogwarts. Clara Ivanova, a chaser for the Vratsa Vultures, comes to Hogwarts for one of her all too rare visits to the only place she considers home. It would be nice if she could come more often but her career has to come first right now. That's what they decided on. One day she'll come back for good but for now these visits will have to get her through the dark times.

Author’s Note: I chose to use Rolanda as Hooch’s first name because it’s from the Trading Cards and I like the old-fashioned sound of it. I found Ivanova’s first name on the Harry Potter Wiki courtesy of a Famous Wizard Card in the video game. I like that both of their names come from cards.
