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 THANK GOD.

I've actually never written Lily before? At all? So I kind of just went with it, and rolled with it. I really, really love all permutations of Sirius/Remus/Lily/James, and so when I saw this prompt I decided to bite the bullet and try it.

And when I saw your prompt and the cigarette part of the lyrics I was BANKING that you wouldn't be horribly disappointed.

I'm just so, so glad this wasn't a major disappointment. :D

(I really want to tackle your james/sirius/lily prompt now. Godddd. I love them like burning, and OT3s are my favourite.)

I love your Lily, you should write more of her.

I love them like burning, and OT3s are my favourite.

Funny you should say that, cause I didn't believe in OT3s -like I had never shipped any- before James/Sirius/Lily so they're all kinds of special to me. I LOVE THEM FIERCELY.

Well, I'm not revealing my first OT3, but my friends actually eased me into the notion. My favourite thing about OT3s in HP fandom, is that my idea of them is less about "oooh, sexy and forbidden", it's more about the level of trust and intimacy of the friendships that just lends itself to things bleeding over and becoming something a little left of just friendship.

Which is how I see James/Sirius/Lily. It's not about the sexy, forbidden aspect of having sex with more than one person, or the 'infidelity' aspect, it's about loving someone so much, and having them be such an integral, trusted piece of your life, that when something shifts and things involve a romantic level of intimacy, it just feels right instead of wrong.
