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:

Harry/Hermione - and this time they hold their gaze for too long

I don't know if this is what you had in mind, but I saw this prompt and I had to do it. This is my first HP fic in 3 years, so it might not be perfect, but I hope you enjoy it anyway.

They are masters at hiding their gazes. No one ever sees. Just a few quick seconds, nothing more, nothing less. No one could ever know, it would break hearts; it’s their secret to keep forever.

They left their hearts buried somewhere in the forest.

And then it happens, one of them slips. It was bound to happen. Ten years of hiding. Ten years of longing. It became too much to keep.

It’s her wedding anniversary, a big party was insisted upon. God knows everyone was ecstatic when they reached the milestone (no one would ever have said out loud, but the bet had been on five years or less).

They are careful to stay far away from each other, very careful. But it’s Ron’s suggestion; “why don’t you go dance with Harry.” He thinks it’s innocent enough, she knows better.

As luck would have it when she pulls him out to the dance floor their song comes on; the one they danced too so long ago, hidden away in the forest, before she suggested that they could stay there forever.

He takes great care not to look her in the eyes, for that would give it all away. They haven’t been this close in forever. It was too dangerous, it is too dangerous. He can feel his own wife’s eyes on him; they’re burning into the back of his head screaming go on, I dare you.

They pull away at the same time and her eyes meet his. Instead of looking away like he knows he should, he holds her gaze. It’s only seconds but it seems like hours, days, months…

It could have been us…

The thought dangles in the air between them, taunting them. Someone coughs, they realize all eyes are on them; everyone is looking, everyone knows.

Their hearts aren’t buried in the forest anymore.

splendid writing, loved that I was surprised by the cough. Great story, if this is your first time in 3 years, you should write more often.

for me this just sums up everything i imagine them to be post war

i like the whole avoiding eachother's eyes and keeping a safe distance aspect of it too.

OH.MY.GOD. perfection. The reference to the dance, the anniversary that wasn't really expected by all, Ron thinking the dance would be innocent enough.... my gosh I'm in love. Thank you for writing this!

Awesome. I want to know what happens next, but I suspect things will change.

(no one would ever have said out loud, but the bet had been on five years or less).

This? So true. No way Ron and Hermione last 19 effing years together. Not in their personalities.
