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:

No one will ever expect you to do something. You're the boy who tried to stop Harry Potter from saving the school in First Year. You're the boy who's scared of your own grandmother. You're the boy who has a toad for a pet and talks to plants. You're the boy who didn't even know you were magic till you were dropped out of a window. You're - You're Neville Longbottom.

Ginny on the other hand, so feiry, so angry, so passionate ... well, it's the sensible thing to stop and search her, to keep her behind after class, to constantly dock house points (as if they even mean anything now), to torture her. After all, she's Ginny Weasley. If there's a rebellion around, she'll be the one to organise it.

Not you. Not Neville Longbottom How would you ever be able to pass messages without getting caught, get graffiti put on the walls without anyone getting caught, know exactly how to recruit and hide members, how to hide in the Room of Requirement, how to withstand torture without giving up anything, rally the students against the Deatheaters, stand up to Voldemort, slay Nagini, help heal people. It's not like you could be a card up anyone's sleeve.

Or maybe, just maybe, people don't tend to notice the quiet ones ...
