Posture Problem
Draco was slouching again and it was getting on Narcissa’s nerves.
It was not obvious but the slight curve in the supposed to be perfect line of Draco’s back was glaring back at her with an vengeance.
“Draco, dear, straighten your back,” and with that it was straight again.
This would be fine if not for it being the third time this week she had caught him doing this.
Walking off to the master bedroom she called upon an elf, “Dobby!”
With a pop the elf appeared in front of her with a, "yes mistress?"
"Dobby I want you to go out and buy something for me."
"Yes, mistress."

The next day Narcissa walked towards Draco's room with a purpose.
Not bothering to knock she walked in on him reading one of the etiquette books on his desk.
"Good afternoon Dragon, what are you reading?" Narcissa questioned with a smile.
"Proper table setting for a tea party, I thought perhaps I could have one with Pansy soon?" Draco hinted shyly.
"We shall see," Narcissa said, "but for now come and try this on."
Draco walked to his mother with curiosity, a gift for him? But it wasn't his birthday, was it?
Narcissa pulled something out of the bag and showed it to Draco, it was a corrector brace for his posture.
Oh.
"Now come Draco try it on for size," Narcissa said with excitement.
Taking the horrid thing and walking to the bathroom he drew a breath and prepared to try the horrid thing on.
Put it on was hard and he immediately felt different afterwards, how was he to bend down in this thing?
Walking out Narcissa immediately noticed a difference in his posture, "why my boy you look so proper, let us go show your father."
Walking to his study was hard, Draco felt so stiff and locked.
"Why Lucius dear look how well your son looks in his new brace!"
Lucius looked up to see his son standing up nice and straight like a proper Malfoy, "yes son you look beautiful, do you like it?"
Draco looked up and nodded, he didn't want to say anything.
"Come now son, you'll grow used to it, and in a few weeks we will see if it has worked to discipline you."
Draco nodded and walked away slowly. After the brace came off, he never forgot with posture again.
