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:

"But Charlie, you love Teddy," Percy says. No surprise that he's echoing Charlie's thoughts. Everyone knows by this point how Charlie loves the kid.

For all their gossip, it's funny how they never guessed why. Lucky, maybe, though there's always the chance that they'd ease up on the needling for him to go out and date if they knew. But he doesn't need that space to mourn. Isolation never did much for him. And it has been time enough since the war ended.

He'd still take Teddy with him to Romania if there were a chance it'd work. Or that Andromeda, having latched onto him, would ever let go. She looks at Charlie funny sometimes, like she's waiting for the question. Or the confession. Teddy has her sharp browline, though his softens in laughter much more often than hers does. He's got the Tonks nose, the Lupin jawline, the Black mouth. He talks with his eyebrows like Harry. He runs full speed like Charlie, like the best thing in the world is ahead and there's a Hungarian Horntail nipping at his heels.

"He's right, you know," Hermione says. "You'd be a good dad."

Charlie shrugs, tugging that smile back to his lips and tearing his eyes away from Teddy and his amazing flying gnomes. "I'm raising dragon hatchlings. That's fatherhood enough for me. And once you start studying the mating habits of your typical Ridgeback, you never want to date again."

"You're talking, but all I hear is 'Let me babysit your spawn'," Bill says from the door.

"Charlie took nesting very seriously," Ron replies. Harry snickers.

Charlie shakes his head and stands up slowly, strolls over to where George and Teddy are still looking for remaining gnomes to toss. "How's the exterminating going?" he asks.

George rubs his remaining ear. "I reckon we got most of 'em," he says. "Didn't we, sprog?"

"There's one down here!" Teddy proclaims, pointing down a molehill. "Charlie, you get this one!"

Charlie reaches down and grabs the gnome firmly by two appendages -- not certain which two -- and spins it forcefully in a large loop. Teddy whoops as it goes flying over the tall grass and drops out of sight, and Charlie slings an arm around his shoulders. This is how life goes on, in the end: a boy and his uncle and all the memories of the woman who brought them to each other turned gold with the summer sunset.

Thanks so much! And, well, Teddy's the child of two of the coolest characters in the books, and was raised by Andromeda with regular visits to the Weasleys. He's got to be a pretty fantastic kid. :D

I'm so pleased you liked it! It was originally going to be a lot more Charlie/Tonks (also a lot sooner after the war) but then Teddy sort of took over and, well. This happened. Thanks so much -- and also for the prompt, which I really enjoyed.
