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:

R/Hr/H -- I'm Just A Little Bit Caught In The Middle (5/5)

[identity profile] scatteredintime.livejournal.com 2010-11-27 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Despite the dire situation, the awkward moment, the weird revelation, Hermione and Jean giggle. Robert has always been a bit slow on the uptake.

This time the Grangers sit on the sofa and Ron sits down in the closest armchair and he pulls Hermione into his lap and Harry next to them onto the armrest. When everyone is settled – without tea because there really don’t need any more broken teacups – Hermione puts on her serious face and starts to explain yet another story. It seems that Australia is the land of revelations for her and her family.

She takes a few breaths and then she’s ready to talk.

“War changes people.”

---

It was the day after Godric’s Hollow that Harry and Hermione sleep next to each other in the same bed. They were tired and scared and didn’t want to lose sight of each other and so for once they didn’t bother that one of them should watch out for the enemy. They were like lost children, no one could find them there and the more time they spent away from the world, the more they needed each other. Both of them missed Ron.

Ron was Harry’s first friend and he missed him terribly. Ron was Harry’s family, Harry’s connection to the Weasleys and he needed him as much as Hermione did.

For all the bickering they did, Hermione truly loved Ron. She was in love with him. She loved him and it hurt terribly to see him gone.

And – she finally realised – she loved Harry the same way. In this strange world of magic they were her family and she loved them both, she was in love with them both and she hadn’t known and she wished that Ron was back. She wanted Ron back because she missed him and because Harry missed him and they, Ron and Hermione, were Harry’s family and they were supposed to be there for each other and it hurt to be two instead of three.

Then Ron came back. Harry told him that Hermione was his family, that Ron was his family and that he needed them. Hermione was mad at Ron, but mostly she was glad to have her boys, her family, back. Ron told them that he couldn’t go back to the Burrow. It was not his prerogative, not when he had given his life over to Harry the moment they had made the choice to help him with his search for the Horcruxes.

Harry didn’t really understand until they were in Hogwarts and he saw Ginny and he was glad that she was safe. He didn’t really understand until he didn’t feel the urge to kiss her. It wasn’t Ginny who was his family. She was an extended part of it and he loved her but he loved Ron more. Ron, who was sometimes an incredible git. But hadn’t their time on the run proven it to Harry? He needed Ron and Hermione more than Ginny or Cho or Dumbledore.

War changes people and Harry wasn’t comfortable around the outspoken girl who had once been his girlfriend. She was too loud, too excited, too much. One moment with Ron and Hermione after the downfall of Voldemort had given him more answers than anything else.

During the months on the run, they had grown to be each other’s family. And now they couldn’t live without each other; they couldn’t live with anyone else. Maybe this was a strange relationship, maybe they were imagining things, but they were all they needed.

“War changes people. Maybe we’re insane, maybe we’re completely screwed up inside, but it physically hurts to be without each other. We’re a family now.”

There, on the bed that seems to have been transfigured to twice its original size, three bodies are pressed together and each of the boys is gripping one of her daughter’s hands and they’re fast asleep and they look like they’re so scared that they might be torn apart, even in their sleep.

This image is so beautiful and sad/sweet. Lovely work!

War changes people. And everything comes back to that, and how the three of them understand each other in ways no one else can. I love how Hermione's parents are truly on the outside of this, especially after only having just gotten their memories back. This was beautiful, thank you so much.

This is the first (nonsmut:p) trio fic I've ever read and so I'm not quite used to it yet but yes. There's a reason they're a trio.

This. I think it really fits and, also, fighting a war at such a young age and being on the run for nearly a year has to cause permanent effects in some way.
