I was reading Lost fics the other day adn came across this song and immediatley thought of AD/MM.. So my challenge.. to write an AD/MM fic based on this song.. and there must be at least three shocked Howarts students in the story

Lyrics from Letssingit.com

By The Way That They Dance
by Jump Little Children

And the one step and he's sliding
And the two steps and she's gliding
3 and the 1 and the 2
And then they float in the air

Side to side and she shows him
Back and forth cause she knows him
Round and round again
All that see them can't help but stare

Cause everyone knows they're in love
Everyone knows they're in love
Yes and everyone knows they're in love
By the way they dance

Cheek to cheek cause he needs her
Hand in hand as he leads her
Face to face cause they know
They'll never dance alone

Cause everyone knows they're in love
Everyone knows they're in love
Yes and everyone knows they're in love
By the way they dance

By the way she moves in circles
Ever so sweetly she wins him completly
By the way he holds her so gracefully
The hand that he lends her is able and tender
Never a step to chance
Cause everyone knows they're in love
By the way they dance

Cause everyone knows they're in love
Everyone knows they're in love
Yes and everyone knows they're in love
By the way they dance

Cause everyone knows they're in love
Everyone knows they're in love
Yes and everyone knows they're in love
By the way they dance

I've never heard of this song before but I already love it! Perhaps I'll actually do this challenge... well, after NaNoWriMo is over, at least ;D! Super cute and indeed HIGHLY AD/MMish! Yay!

There is already a songfic written with this song that you might want to go read. It is on the second page of the Songfic section...By the Way They Dance by Aurinko.

It takes place at the graduation dance of Minerva's seventh year. She dances with Professor Dumbledore and the others are either shocked, disgusted, or jealous.

I think it would be a great idea if someone wrote one now (as head and deputy). Just wanted to let you know one exists.

Kay

And it seems to me you lived your life (Albus)
Like a candle's golden flames,
Never fading with the sunset,
When Dark times appeared.
But, your footsteps will always fall here,
Along Hogwarts hallowed halls,
And, though your magic may be gone,
Your legend never will.

(My tribute to Albus Dumbledore, with thanks to Elton John's song, Candle in the Wind.)

Actually, there is one for the current time period as headmaster and deputy. I wrote it under the name Lady Urquentha on fanfiction.net. It's called Professors' Dance.

It's a two part fic, one from her last year in Hogwarts and then the next chapter from another ball about sixty years later.

I remember a world where the crash of ocean waves carries the voice of God,
the soft light of the moon is Her gift to us, and every living thing is my relative.
I remember a world in which the howl of a wolf, the flight of a raven,
and the sound of the wind through the trees have meanings too deep to tell.I remember a world where dreams run deep, life runs slow, and eternity unfurls itself

I've read the story on fanfiction.net and it's so good!
Message to everybody: Go to ff.net and read the story!

To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.

For me it is one of those fics you just keep going back to over and over. Its wonderful.
