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:

Charity Burbage/Severus Snape -- Thinking Of You

[personal profile] sarcasticsra 2010-11-25 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
He doesn't think of Charity Burbage.

He doesn't think of her preference for coffee over tea, the way she insisted on reading multiple Muggle newspapers every single day, the way she always passed him the first scone out of the bunch during breakfast every morning. He doesn't think of the way she smiled when he asked why she bothered and she told him that he should start the day off on the right foot.

He doesn't think of how she was always the first one waiting in the staff room for meetings, even when he left early to get there first, solely so he could claim his preferred chair by the fireplace. He doesn't think of how she always saved that chair for him anyway.

He doesn't think of the way her eyes would light up when she got a new Muggle book or electronic or other inanely Muggle item, the way she'd go on about the science and the mechanics or the history and the importance to Muggle culture. He doesn't think about how pleased she'd be when she actually managed to interest him.

He doesn't think of her intelligence, her kindness, her warmth, but most of all, he doesn't think of her, not even when she's suspended in front of him, begging him to help her, reminding him of their friendship.

He stares, and he watches as the Dark Lord kills her, and he thinks of nothing.

OH GOD.

Tears. So many tears. This is heart-wrenching, but deliciously so, and I love it. But teeeeeaaaaars.

This is painful, in a heartachingly beautiful way.

Even though it's short, it conveys so, so much.

Brilliant.

I have nothing to say other than, "Omg, this was good." That last line was perfection.

This might completely knock my Hermione/Snape shipping out of the park. It's /awesome./

Oh, no, I hope not! (I ship Hermione/Snape too. And Harry/Snape. And Dumbledore/Snape, somewhat. I pair Snape around, is what I'm saying. =P)

Thank you!

This is just amazingly perfect in its simplicity. ♥

this was one of the saddest scenes of the film, and you captured snape's thoughts so well!

Oh wow, this blew my meager attempt at this pairing out of the water. This was beautiful. Well done, you!

GOD this is just absolute perfection, heartbreaking yet written so beautifully!

I don't ship it (SEVERUS IN MAH HEAD is queer) but I think this is ambiguous enough for non-shippers to enjoy too. It perfectly fills in that gap in canon. Oh, Snape. <3

Love the backstory you give her and them. The feeling of 'if only' evoked by such a short piece...

Very powerful little piece.
