operatingroomHarry 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:

with beings brighter than have been | luna/hermione | g
Date: 2010-11-30 01:37 pm (UTC)But it feels surprisingly nice and Luna is warm and soft and her hair is tickling Hermione's nose and it's just the first real moment of peace that Hermione's had in a long time, so she just sighs and lets herself be embraced.
How's your arm? Luna asks, after a while, pulling back so that she can look at Hermione's forearm, where there's still the bright scar of Mudblood written on her skin.
Better, Hermione tells her and flinches when Luna reaches out to stroke her fingers along it curiously; she'd half expected it to hurt, but of course, it doesn't. It just looks worse than it is, she says. It's going to take a bit of time to heal, I think; I mean, I'm not sure. It's not just a regular injury, you know?
Luna smiles, stares at her with wide, blue gray eyes that are soft, like dove feathers, almost. I think it's nice, she says, which is not at all what Hermione was expecting, but then again, it's still Luna, and she shouldn't be surprised.
It is nice, Luna says. It's sort of like a mark of bravery.
Hermione snorts.
No, really, Luna says, and reaches up and waves at the air above their heads. Sorry, she says, distracted. Wrackspurts.
Yes, Hermione both thinks and says. Of course.
They're more likely to show up around bedtime, you know, Luna tells her, temporarily distracted. That's why your brain gets all fuzzy just before you fall asleep. But really, she says, serious again. I think you're quite brave. And your scar, well, what it says isn't nice at all, but what it means is.
Hermione smiles, sighs, leans her head on Luna's shoulder. Thanks, she says, after several long moments.
Of course. Luna's hand slips down, finds Hermione's, intertwines their fingers. And it shouldn't be this easy to forget, at least for a moment, about everything that's going on right now -- Voldemort, the Horcruxes, her parents, and so much more that she can't even begin to list everything -- but it is. It is, with Luna's hand in hers, her thumb slowly stroking back and forth across the back of Hermione's hand.
Thanks, Hermione says again, after a long while. She's not even really sure what she's thanking Luna for, she just needs to say it. For some strange reason; she doesn't quite understand it. Her brain does feel a bit fuzzy; for one wild moment she entertains the idea that Luna may actually be right about wrackspurts and she grins, amused at herself.
What? Luna looks at her through hazy, half-closed eyes. What are you thinking about?
Nothing, Hermione says. Just, well. You.
Luna smiles sleepily at her. Good things, I hope, she murmurs and leans forward to press a kiss to Hermione's forehead, through her hair. Are you going to leave tomorrow?
And there she is, yanked right back into reality. Maybe. I don't know.
Well, we'll just stay like this for tonight then, Luna says. We can worry about tomorrow when it comes.

Don't know if this is what you wanted, but it's what came to me when I read your prompt.

Date: 2010-11-30 07:28 pm (UTC)This is really lovely, B. So gentle and sweet, a calm moment in the eye of the storm, maybe.
Hermione is kind of perfect, and Luna is so very Luna, which is wonderful, because I love Luna more than life :D
It's strange, but I've always thought the simple act of omitting quotation marks serves to make a scene almost dreamlike, I don't know why, and this is so appropriate here.
Lovely work. it makes me wish you wrote for HP more :)

Date: 2010-11-30 08:09 pm (UTC)I was hoping for something darker, that said, I am not missing anything with this. :) I loved it. Luna's commentary on Hermione's scar was perfect, the whole story was really. You provided the peace I wanted to see happen w/ them, that could only happen with Luna's "lack" of logic against Hermione's logic. Superb.
I need a hermione/luna icon. >_>
Re: with beings brighter than have been | luna/hermione | g
Date: 2010-11-30 08:16 pm (UTC)And yes, you do.
And so do I.Re: with beings brighter than have been | luna/hermione | g
Date: 2010-11-30 08:26 pm (UTC)(but since you asked) I've got this weird notion in my mind where, and this is how well you did answer my prompt, Hermione and Luna depend/use each other to get past what was done to them in the
dungeonbasement. I just, you know, expected far less sane and more dark and twisted, something darker than what could've been in the books, I suppose.So, no extra shot needed, you actually DID answer my prompt in an amazingly mind-readery kind of way. ♥
I'll get on it. ;)
Re: with beings brighter than have been | luna/hermione | g
Date: 2010-11-30 08:28 pm (UTC)But really, now I'm thinking about it, so please do prompt, if you'd like. I can't promise I'll write it, but I'm already sort of seeing a scene in my head.Re: with beings brighter than have been | luna/hermione | g
Date: 2010-11-30 08:30 pm (UTC)Let me think and try to come up with something, I'll let you know.
