HARRY POTTER NON-CANON SHIPS COMMENT FICATHON




Banner by [livejournal.com profile] operatingroom

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:

Ron/Luna-And this is the story of the death of Cinderella
She'd grow to be a maid if she couldn't find a fella
Who can use her
And it's all you could do not to tie her to the bed.

Oh, oh this was just absolutely breathtakingly perfect and so very a Harry and Hermoine moment and I adore how, even though she's sad, she's not dribbling all over the place and the pacing was just...

Severus Snape/Regulus Black - they taped over your mouth / scribbled out the truth with their lies / you little spies

So this prompt kind of ate away at my brain, which is funny because I haven't properly written anything in ages and never for the HP fandom at all. No idea if this is what you were looking for, but I just saw the movie so here you go. :) *is tired*
--


He is rage. He is pain. He is everything that turns people against one another. He is everything that ends all hope. He is everything that kills.

She is fear. She is hate. She is everything that one wishes to hide from. She is everything that one will never escape. She is everything that destroys.

(They emerge newly born from the darkness with their fingers entwined.)








Ronald Weasley, small and weak and oh so frightened, cowers on the ground before them. They have seen his heart and they know all that dwells there—all the hopes and dreams and furies and fears, buried deep (but not deep enough).

They show him what he dreads most.

Harry Potter loves Hermione Granger. Hermione Granger loves Harry Potter. They are the whole world, and there is no room for someone lesser, someone forgotten, someone unwanted.

A hindrance.

A burden.

A nothing.

She deserves the best. He is the best. They could hardly be anything else.

(They are only what the fickle Fates have made them.)








Denial expels from the mouth of their helpless spectator—denial, always denial, of what stands so clearly before him. The Other Harry says, it’s a lie. Don’t listen. It isn’t the truth.

They are still very very real.

There is doubt, so much doubt, in Ronald Weasley’s eyes (in his mind, in his heart).

He sees it.

He knows it.

He tastes it.

Reality tastes like the echoes of dead dreams and the dust of broken hearts. He breathes in everything that she is, and she has never been more brilliant. Like fire she consumes his entire being, and in return he devours her whole. He slides gladly along that sweet razor’s edge, falling towards eternity with fervent, intoxicating abandon.

They are everything. She is everything.

(He could stay there forever, he thinks.)








But Ronald Weasley (the hindrance, the burden, the nothing) thrusts that bright, wicked sword between them—always coming between them, always—straight through their stone heart like a burning curse.

It is the end, but for an instant his eyes cut away to the Other Harry (no one sees it). Just as his heart breaks and they are torn apart, a smile stretches his lips against hers, like a secret whispered in deep dark places.

They are still the truth, after all.

(They’d slipped and slid and slithered through more than one heart these past weeks.)

It happens two weeks and four days after Ron has left them.

There's barely any contact at all –

just her chapped lips against his,

his hands fisted in her shirt –

and then it's over, it's over, and it's nothing at all.

She pulls away first, but they don't talk about that.

They don't talk about it at all.





He's cold and drenched and she's staring at him and he just wants her to stop.

"He saw---he saw us together."

He looks away as the words leave his mouth.

The images flash through his mind again--

herandhimandkissingandkissing

--and he thinks of his best friend, his best friend who took the sword to the locket.

He looks back at her.

"We're- we're not--"

"I know."

His words ring hollow in the woods.




He lies still against the leaves.

He can hear his heartbeat, the blood rushing through his veins.

He keeps his eyes closed.

Don't check don't check--

Feels a hand near his heart.

When he is pronounced dead, all he can think of is her.

He'll see this through.




He sees them amidst the rubble.

They're kissing, a celebration for the end of the war.

He looks away.

Reminds himself they've won.




Five months after the war,

five months of a fresh start.

Five months of conversations over coffeelunchdinner,

and they're back at square one.




The air is crisp and the leaves are golden.

He sits next to her, legs stretched out on the grass.

"So," he begins.

She glances his way.

"So," he tries again, "You and Ron."

She shrugs.

Her lips curve into a smile, but her eyes remain serious.

"So," she mimics him, tone subdued, "You and Ginny."

He sighs, closes his eyes.

"Yeah."




He sees her at the wedding.

"You look--"

"Thanks."

"Hermione--"

"Harry, don't--"

He presses his lips to hers,

and suddenly he's in those woods, seventeen again,




but this time, he turns away first.




He still sees her, from time to time.

They talk about everything and nothing,

their work, their kids, Ginny, Ron.

Sometimes, he lets his hand linger a second too long.

And for a moment, he'll wonder what they could have been.

But then she smiles at him, touches his arm, and he remembers.




They're Harry and Hermione.
