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:

Oh, yay! My ship! Surprisingly, not many people are willing to give this ship a shot. You should feel quite proud =D

Of course, he said he would. He never refuses me, but I always have to stifle a chuckle when he assents. He always looks so terribly serious!

I love this line for being both very Albus and very Severus. It's Snape's endless devotion to the headmaster (no, he would never refuse) and Dumbldore wanting the younger man to lighten up a bit.

A wizard imprints himself upon everything he makes.

This was quite an interesting piece of mythology and sounded just like something Dumbldedore would say.

Everything was blue, the streaming moonlight, the sighing wind, even the mist floating among the trees. Blue, the color of time curling back upon itself, suspended in perfect peace.

Lovely description and very dreamy. The whole dream-sequence was lovely in how serene and fantastic it felt.

And I knew what no one else knew, would ever know: that his sorrow was as constant as his shadow, that he would always be alone.

Oh, Snape *hugs*

The flagstones lurched, and as I fell forward, just before darkness swallowed me, I heard his voice:

'A promise is a promise, Albus...'

Lately, I've been having trouble sleeping…


Such a haunting ending! Really lovely work. Thank you!
