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:

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Go here.

I have been waiting all day =D

me too! (clearly i have no life)

Actually, I have a question. If it is about a certain ship but they actually end up with someone who is canon, would that be OK? Like, say if Hermione likes Harry and the fic is mostly about that, but in the end she's with Ron.

I think as long as the fic is mostly about the canon ship it's fine? I like angst. Angst is fun. But I might re-assess this rule later, depending on how it goes. The primary focus of the fic must be the UC ship, though (as in 95% of the text), and you cannot request a UC ship with the corollary that at the end it be a CC ship. But who am I to tell people they can't write affair fic.

Is Next Generation allowed?

as long as it's non-canon. teddy/victoire is not allowed.

YOU. ARE. AMAZING. ♥ That is all.

andddddd iiiiii will alwaysssssss love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Dammit, my friends should not link me to things like this. Um, I have ne'er done a comment fic meme before, so is it bad etiquette to do a prompt that's already been filled even if it's the only one that speaks to me?

you can most definitely do a prompt that has already been filled. the prompter will inevitably love it. two fics for the price of one!

i love you for this. thank you :]

I love this idea. <3

(found this through hp_fanfiction, by the way)

I have a question, though. Is there a specific timeline for this? Like, is it an event type thing or is it like the kinkmemes, where they just go on and on and on and on (at least in the Sherlock fandom, anyway)?

just goes on and on forever :)

Is art allowed? There are some prompts I want to fill, but I can't write. :T

If we end up writing a fic which is bigger than life, can we post a link to our journal as opposed to breaking it down to blocks of comments here? /)_(\

Is there an archive of prompts?
