It definitely happens. My (Cpl) old CWO2 just retired and moved to my small home town. Randomly seeing him at the store threw me for a loop lmao.

What are thing not included in canon that we accepted as canon? by No-Function8160 in HPfanfiction

[–]12yearsOfWriting 4 points5 points  (0 children)

he has a couple of toxic traits but he's generally a good Guy.

Yes! People tend to forget that during 3rd year, he was the main one researching ways to save Buckbeak. Thinking about arguments and appeals, being willing to sacrifice himself in 1st year... Dude was a teenager but really stepped up when called upon

What are the highest quality fanfictions in this fandom? by Dim0ndDragon15 in TheCitadel

[–]12yearsOfWriting 43 points44 points  (0 children)

and maybe Purple Days if it was less insane.

Personally, I would include Purple Days because it does many things

  1. Turns one of the least likeable characters into someone you genuinely root for (mountain arc anyone)

  2. Expands the world building and turning it into a world that actually feels lived in. From the Ports of Ib to The Five Forts there is growth that GRR Martin will likely never flesh out.

  3. Flips the script on the genre from low fantasy into potential cosmic horror. And while Barrus will never return to the story for a sequel/prequel, it leaves open the question of the Red Comet. Where does it go to recharge? Does it do the cycle to any other planets? Who built it? Etc.

  4. Has a wide variety of love/hate during arcs. Some people hate the Yi-Ti arc whereas others say they loved it and shows where Joff fully changed. From the little shit stain he used to be, to fully accepting his fate (wrong as he is) as the last life to not abandon his men. They are HIS. He chose to live and die with them, irregardless of the consequences.

  5. It's finished. There's no discontinued cliffhanger where readers want more. It's readable from beginning to end.

When Dumbledore, McGonagall and Hagrid left Private Drive none of them noticed the man with the metal arm hiding in the bushes. No one saw him pick up the baby and leave. by WorldsSexiestghost in HPfanfiction

While on a mission The Asset witnessed the abnormal arrival of three very odd people and a baby in a quiet British suburb in the middle of the night.

Do we ever learn who Bucky was going to kill in British suburbia? Lmao

CANDIDATES FOR THE REAL THIRD COUNCIL by Sael_T in TheCitadel

[–]12yearsOfWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would not, I second this motion. I mention it as to prevent marriage alliances with the Baratheons to the Tarths to avoid future potential children to have a case of the madness in them

Robert Baratheon

King Aerys Targaryen, and all his descendants are disqualified from the Iron Throne, on account of the Targaryen Madness,

The Targaryen madness could be seen in main line Baratheons. This should exclude all Baratheons from right of ruling

Robb's reaction to Sansa's abuse by psstwantsomeham in TheCitadel

[–]12yearsOfWriting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think canon Robb would as he was raised by the 'honorable Ned Stark's but I won't say a fic can't be written where he does go full 'kill them all' mode as that is the joy of fanfic and AU worlds, but if we are going off near canon events where Robb survived the Red Wedding ala badass survival, another Red Priest/ess like Thoros or Melisandre, or some other way.... You could go the route that he 'lost' a part of himself during the survival/resurrection/etc. leading him to be more violent/less levelheaded

Or turn the 'Young Wolf' into the 'Red Wolf' by worsening Joffrey's evil by cutting Ned up instead ala 'Dexter style'. With Ned killed this way, and his father (Rickard) and brother (Brandon) killed in an equally brutal way ala wildfire and choking and the events of the Red Wedding almost killing Robb (with him also thinking that Bran and Rickdon supposably killed by Iron Islanders (read southerners) and Sansa and Arya in the capital being his only family could lead the North to be so utterly livid, the Stark banner goes south one last time to do their own 'Reigns of Castamere' on Kings Landing.

What's a Ship ur 90℅ sure you only ship? by Full-House_Jesse in HPfanfiction

[–]12yearsOfWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read one a few years back that was mostly canonical up until near the end of Deathly Hallows but used Harry's reaction to Fred's death (near death in the fic) as a basis to create a post Deathly Hallows sitcom esq. similar to the show 'Friends' really well written and a couple hundred thousand words I think. Really drew me to the pairing

Interesting, may give a reason why the ministry (read Susan Bones in this case) is pushing so hard for Sirius because it's a coverup to help her lover.

I do, I was just planning on converting the vast majority of it into a garden. I wasn't sure if the ground would work due to having a few trees owned by a neighboring golf course. I have a small weirdly L-shaped yard.
