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:

sirius/remus - so don't think that i'm pushing you away when you're the one that i've kept closest.

Sirius/Remus- Vodka with Caffeine

[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."

Harry/Hermione -- Baby please, I'm well versed in how I might be cursed, I don't need it articulated.

[callarose.livejournal.com]

Harry/Cho: maybe we'd get better at this.

harry/cho, false bravado, pg

[angeldylan628.livejournal.com]

They meet again, ten years later.

She's coming off her third husband, two of them were Muggles, one a Squib. She tired of magic quickly, a whole other story. He's tied to the same woman as ever.

They're in a Muggle grocery store. Cho has shopped here since Husband One, and Harry comes here when he needs to think, knows it's the only place where His World can't find him. Their carts bump in the produce aisle. They've never crossed paths before. Though Harry wonders if he'd have even noticed. Maybe she's thinking the same thing.

They stare for awhile, taking note of what's before them. They see something they don't want to name, caught off guard. Stripped bare faces and vulnerable eyes. This is not what they world is meant to see.

The world says - she looks beautiful, flawless. She is a model, a socialite, the new face of Magic. Pureblood, but a flawed enough family tree that it was okay to mention it. She cuts ribbons and makes speeches and smiles all the time. And she still has all the reasons to hate and love him at the same time. She's not foolish enough to think that her fame isn't tied to his. That it's no coincidence every article or interview always ended with the same question. Did you really date Harry Potter?. Ended with the same old answers, yes and then lies pushed through her teeth.

The world says he looks strong, confident. He walks down the street with his head high and shoulders back. Laughs with his sons and daughter. Teases his wife. He is the face of the New World -- His World --as they call it sometimes. The question comes up every once and awhile. Cho Chang, huh? and Harry still thinks it's absurd. Still hesitates and then smiles politely and says wonderful things about her. Leaves enough out because he's guilty on so many different fronts.

The world sees perfect, but they see better. They are not beautiful or strong. They are tired and weary. And maybe the world got it without knowing what it was onto. Maybe they saw something they weren't aware of. Because they stare at each other for minutes without a word and it's like looking into a mirror.

They died at fifteen. Lost loves and lost lives and sacrificed large parts of them to a bigger purpose they didn't sign up for. No matter how strong they look to everyone else, they can't escape it here with each other. The idea that they are filling up their lives with empty noise.

The irony is all too much.

She breaks the silence first, asks tentatively how have you been?

And he's gotten better at reading people, better at reading women, so he tells the truth and knows she'll understand. same as you

He expects her to start crying (old habits), but instead he sees something click in her eyes and then she smiles. His own grin is a reflex.

They share their first real smile of the decade.

Alecto Carrow/Amycus Carrow - you'll make a handsome cardinal

blood is thicker | alecto/amycus

[marketchippie.livejournal.com]

When she is five, she punches him in the mouth and licks the blood off her knuckles. It tastes exactly like hers when she bites her lip.

He looks at her for a quick, begrudging moment and then punches back.

She puts her hand up to her eye. "You can't hit a girl."

"You en't one. You're just my sister."

-

They grow up with bulls and half-naked youths painted on their walls.

They grow up sneaking onto each other's mattresses, warming cold feet between barely less cold thighs.

Every year it get just a little warmer. Every year her ankles sneak a bit higher, bone and joint settling above the knees and climbing up inch by inch.

He groans in his sleep. He groans out of his sleep. Every now and again she digs her elbows into his back just to hear his sharp, wordless replies. The sounds he makes, the gamut of them.

Midnight chimes and his fingers are blunt between her legs, not looking where he touches. She hisses and he snorts a low laugh into the air between them.

The delineations of his body are so much like hers, she is anxious to make them different—to mark him as something else, to touch and remind them both a thousand times of the pieces they don't share. Their asymmetries fit into something more symmetrical than either of them manage on their own.

Night after night she journeys in trying to break it. When morning rises in pale thin streaks outside their window it finds her chin tucked into his shoulder, her teeth, small and square, marking his neck.

-

Their parents tell them they are destined for greatness. "Make us proud," they say to him, and she says "I will" even before he can.

They hadn't been talking to her, but she has always taken the proclivity to taste his words same as him.

If he'll be great she'll be great, if not—

She doesn't tell him any of this. When their parents leave the room to them, they clasp hands behind the close of the door without sparing a glance toward each other. They've never had to look to link.

-

The marks they make, they mirror. They meet the world as two halves; they meet it whole.

[hillcm.livejournal.com]

Harry/Hermione - I feel that when I'm old, I'll look at you and know the world was beautiful.

Alecto Carrow/Pansy Parkinson - private lessons during 7th year

[sacred-lullaby.livejournal.com]

Charlie/Tonks

we pass just close enough to touch

[sans-grace.livejournal.com]

Harry/Hermione/Ron

Seventh year at Hogwarts, post war and the servivors are kind of messed up. They behave during the day to stay under the radar but at night they seem to resemble the Skins characters more than the kids we came to know and love.

Effy!Hermione and Tony!Harry/Ron.

I love Effy and Tony's relationship. So close they're borderline incestuous. (Don't judge, I don't care.)

[downjune.livejournal.com]

This is....most intriguing.

[bisclaveret.livejournal.com]

Dean/Luna - All I had was you and all you had was me. There was no tomorrows, We'd packed away our sorrows And we saved them for a rainy day

[bisclaveret.livejournal.com]

Neville/Parvati - And after the bombs subside And this long, low campaign
Calls it good for the night
We meet in the streets Will we meet in the bar's cold light?
We grip at our hands We hold just a little tight

[bisclaveret.livejournal.com]

Oliver Wood/Cho Chang I can live with my regrets
Still raise a smile, still raise my head

[bookworm-919.livejournal.com]

Harry/Hermione - We were young and learning steady hearts hate turning That's where we went wrong

[selonbrody.livejournal.com]

Narcissa/Ted: an education

[selonbrody.livejournal.com]

Luna/Dean:
There's a harbor lost within the reeds
A jetty caught in over-hanging trees
Among the bones of cormorants
No boot mark here nor finger prints
The rivers roll down to a soundless sea

[alexandria-skye.livejournal.com]

♥ decemberists

[selonbrody.livejournal.com]

Tom Riddle/Minerva McGonagall:
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the mind
Struck from a great height
By someone who should know better than that
