Harry Potter Non-Canon Ships Comment Ficathon


THE RULES ARE THUS:

1. WHAT MAKES A NON-CANON SHIP? Anything that is not at least one-sided in the books. This means that Snape/Lily is canon, even if she may (or may not) have ever reciprocated. Bellatrix/Voldemort is canon. Lavendar/Ron is canon. Obviously everyone who's married and/or dates is canon. OBHWF is canon, Harry/Cho is canon. Ships that are not stated as fact in the books are not canon. That means UC ships are good, slash is good, femslash is good. For our purposes, we are not counting JKR's interviews as canon. That means that if you wanted to prompt, say, who knows, Hannah/Neville, you could, because it's not in the text itself.

2. You leave a comment with a pairing and a prompt. You respond to prompts that you like. Your prompt must pertain to a non-canon ship. You may specify a character within that ship if you want the fic written from that characters perspective. You may also specify a timeline if you'd like, or if you want it to take place in the movie!verse.

3. When writing fic, put in your title SHIP - TITLE OF FIC (rating optional). This will help us archive if we later archive things. I don't have time to archive anything right now, but if someone wants to volunteer, we can make that happen.

4. LEAVE FEEDBACK. Comments are the lifeblood of the internet.

5. NO WANK. I'll delete your ass. And we're dealing with ships and I am deletion happy, so watch yourself.

6. There will be spoilers for the movie all over this post, I am sure. You have been warned.

7. Promote this if you please. You can use this code:

For text link:





In the image code box, you can use any of the banners below or the lead banner at the top of the post.



They're all uploaded to tinypic, so you can just copy/paste the source code:

Sirius/Remus- Vodka with Caffeine

Date: 2010-12-07 03:37 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] 10millionpeople.livejournal.com
(A/N- I didn't know if you wanted it romantic or not, so I just kind of made it in between (: Hope it's okay! Sirius is probably a little OOC, because I don't write him often.)

"Damnit, Sirius!" Remus closed his eyes tight and tried to recite the Ten Commandments in his head to keep him from screaming something worse at him.

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Sirius cocked his head to one side. "Damnit me? Damnit you! You're the one that thinks just because we're not at the Shrieking Shack that you can go all 'Mr. Hero' on me and vanish the week of the full moon!" His voice betrayed annoyance more so than anger, and if it hadn't been such a serious situation Remus would have laughed. Ironically, Sirius Black was easily annoyed. "Just stay in the cellar here; it's there for a reason!" The urge to laugh was gone.

Thou shalt not bow down to any graven image.

"Yes, for storing wine and holding extra guests! Not for housing dangerous werewolves without Wolfsbane!" Sirius chuckled, and the Word of the Lord was forgotten at the sound. For once it was probably for the better.

"First: Cut the 'I'm so dangerous!' crap. It's not working on Tonks-," Remus cringed at the name - some people just couldn't take a hint! "-and it's not working on me. Now I know you're not trying to get rid of me, and by golly, Remus, what'd'ya think that cage is for?" For a second Remus was dumbstruck.

"You actualy have a cage down there?... For me?"

His friend looked at him sarcasticaly. "No, for storing the ladies while I buy groceries- yes, for you!" The ex-professor smiled ever-so slightly.

"So... you were planning on me staying?" Sirius shuffled his feet.

"Well, yeah, I mean... you're my best friend, and I'm your best friend, and-," He stopped mid-sentence, a look of anxiety suddenly on his face. "I am your best friend - right?"

At this, Remus chuckled. "Yes, of course!" Pause. "So you really want me to stay, Padfoot?" Remus asked softly, his voice barely audible over the chirping birds outside.

Sirius' face lit up with a toothy little smile, and Remus felt the heart inside of him beat just a little bit faster. This was a feeling Tonks could never give me. Remus smiled. "More than anything, Moony."

"You're cold."

He states the obvious, as if letting her know of one of her many problems and giving her his jacket will do anything to help the searing in her heart. Well it doesn't. And he knows this.

Placing the sports coat over her shivering shoulders, he squeezes a little too tight or holds on a little too long and her demeanor shatters right then and there. Turning around, she latches onto his neck and buries her face in his shirt and he just holds her and murmurs "It's alright, you're alright" in her ear until the weeping dies down to a soft cry and the screams lower to a faint squeal.

In three minutes the chest of his perfectly ironed polo is soaked through the skin with tears.

She lifts her head and stares at him, wiping her nose and turning a shade of pink he knows isn't from the cold. "It'salright,you'realright,it'sokay,you'reokay" replay themselves again and again in his mind until he can see that she really is finally okay, and he leads her to a bench in the park.

"You know, when I was coming to meet you here, I wasn't expecting the first time you see me in two years to be quite like... this." He chooses his words carefully. (Smart.) She sniffles and then blows her nose on a hankerchief, abruptly stuffing it in her pocket afterward. She might need to later.

"Yeah... sorry, for that," She says, and for some reason unknown to him she won't meet his eyes. He brings her chin up to look at him.

"Hermione, this - we, I -," He breaks off, waits for her to look at him, and crashes his lips onto hers at the first sign of eye contact. He can feel her tense but he just kisses her harder, and soon she responds and everything in him is screaming yes and he finally thinks something is going to work out and he loves her, really and truely loves her, and he wonders if that can maybe, maybe be enough this time.

But she soon pushes against his chest and breaks off the kiss, and he looks at her confused. "Harry, I can't do this. Ron, he just died, and I know he wasn't - we weren't, but..." He hangs his head. He understands. He tries to say that, but it won't come out.

"Yeah, okay. Sure, that's great." Suddenly he's a little 14 year old again mumbling in front of Cho Chang, but now, looking at his best friend, he wonders what he ever really saw in the Chinese exchange student at all. She was here along along.

And he had let her slip away.

"Harry, you do realize that I... I've always loved you, Harry. I wanted you to see it sooner, but I... I don't know. I'm sorry; I was a coward. I just thought you should know that, now." And with that she wipes away a few unshed tears (Or maybe they were trailing down her face; he wouldn't know.) and hurredly leaves the bench... the park... the boy. And suddenly all those feelings of lonliness and sadness and pain and depression come swirling back in, and the flood of emotions hits Harry like a ton of bricks.

And Hermione called him the hero. No, no - she had always been his.

Tonight

Date: 2010-12-07 04:47 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] brainybiologist.livejournal.com
For seven years, I have helped Harry scrape through one trial after another - some literally named tasks. We took them on together, task by task, systematically defeating each one - or at least circumventing it enough to keep Harry alive.

Harry has been my hero since my first Halloween as a witch, the one clearly bookmarked in my mind with a troll. I have always thought him brave and a wonderful wizard, but I've never seen Harry as a hero on the global, Boy Who Lived, save-civilization-as-we-know-it level. Not since I met him on the train and saw what a scraggly boy the Chosen One actually turned out to be. To me, he's always been my Harry and my hero, not the world's Harry and the world's hero.

Ron and I emerge from the Chamber of Secrets having destroyed the soul fragment housed in Ravenclaw's diadem. It feels so wrong to call it a soul, having been so fragmented beyond recognition as a soul. The battle rages on around us, friends falling, our beloved castle home increasingly pockmarked and scarred by errant spells.

In the midst of battle, I glance out across the Great Lawn, toward the Forbidden Forest, and part of me is certain that I see Harry. Harry…there was something off about Harry earlier. He was holding something back from us, I've known him too long to miss the signs. Something important.

Tonight's the night my Harry, my hero must become the world's Harry, the world's hero. Tonight, we will fight with every breath in our bodies, holding out hope that Harry knows what he's doing, holding out hope that when dawn comes, Harry will have saved the world. I know Harry has this hero in him, but Harry must be sure of that hero, even more sure than I am.

Time is running short, but I fight with hope that Harry will emerge as my hero, whom I have always known him to be. Tonight, I will share my Harry, my hero with the world. He will save the world. He will become the chocolate-frog-card hero, the larger-than-life figure, instead of the skinny seventeen-year-old I know him to be.

He will save the world tonight, and with the dawn tomorrow, we will finally return to the most important battle of all, where I am Harry's hero and he is mine, where we save one another from our pasts, from our loneliness, from our nightmares, and from our pain.

Oh...this line just breaks my heart:

“I thought it would be enough.”
“To win.” He rests his hand in the sand between them.
“Not to lose.”

I adore this line:

For a few moments (longer than a few moments) her sadness leaves and is replaced with an immense and powerful feeling, and she lets it fill her up and surge through her being.

I love the description of the feeling there so much more than just trying to assign a name to the feeling. The heart bursting feeling.

Harry/Hermione- Cheap Bottles of Wine

From: [identity profile] 10millionpeople.livejournal.com
i.
He looks at her and knows it will never work.

Thoughts swarm around his head of the rose and the nightingale- a classic tale of forbidden love, and of Ron and of Ginny and of— please make it stop.

He doesn't know how much longer he can go on like this, pretending she doesn't affect him. Oh she affects him alright. And it's driving him i n s a n e .

ii.
She decided to take a bath this morning.

There's a creek a little ways down the bank, still visible from the tent, and they had a little extra time and she wanted to get clean. He is told to stay in the tent, and not to come outside until she tells him it's okay. Alrighty, then. She has no idea how gard this is going to be.

He doesn't want to sound like a pervert; inn fact, he wants to wait for marriage. But something about the innocence of her feeling comfortable taking a bath in a situation like this - in a river bed, on a hunt for Horcruxes, in the middle of God knows where, with her best friend mere meters away - draws him to her. But there again, there aren't many things that don't draw him to her.

But he quickly rebukes himself and gives his mental face a good slap or two for even thinking like that. It's not right.

But it's killing him.

iii.
He spins her while they dance, and Harry feels on top of the freaking world.

Hear that, Ron? She's laughing. The first laugh since you left. And I made that happen. It feels good to gloat to the memory of Ron. But then he'll remember Ron and he'll remember Ron and Ginny and he'll remember Ron and Ginny and Hermione and him and then he feels guilty and everything feels wrong. And he wonders how everything can feel so wrong when everything is so obvioulsly right.

But he doesn't question it any further. He wants to, but questionng it more just makes the pain hurt worse.

This is how it's suppossed to be: Hermione Weasley, sister-in-law to Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived. After the marriages (Hermione and Ron and Harry and Ginny - which everyone knows will happen) the newspapers will drop the whole "Harry Potter's best friend" and focus on her relationship with Ron.

Hermione Weasley. Somehow, he can't help but think he name would fit better with Potter.

iv.
She hits Ron. He came back, and Harry is finally feeling some of the anger he surpressed last night bubble up again.

But she's hurting him way more than she's hurting Ron.

Their relationship is one out of anger - and all those TV pastors the Dursleys used to watch because they were too lazy to get out and see the real thing said that, as humans, we tend to hurt the most badly the ones we love the most.

So with each fling of the backpack and collision of Ron's side and Hermione's fist, Harry breaks a little more inside, and his heart takes one more gulp of air.

There's not much to feed it.

But, no matter what, they're a team. The... three of them, as hard as it is for Harry to say it, make one heck of a Horcrux-hunting group. And that's what matters now.

Isn't it?
