My Five Things

May 09, 2009 21:44

Please, for the love of all that is holy and writerly, gimme prompts, people. You know, Five Things-shaped ones. "And One ___ ____ Didn't" optional. Just anythingwhatever.

{Clarification via example: Five Times Kaylee Ate Strawberries (and One Time She Didn't) et cetera.}

Can be random original somethingness, can be fandom - my usual HP, Good Omens ( Read more... )

Let me try...

Five Times Ginny Weasley Fell in Love With Harry Potter?

If you don't like that ship, choose another ship. :P

(I'll do H/G if you don't! :P)

Neurgh, no! Harry/Ginny isn't something I can do any more, I apologise. My brain's become too crax. How about I find a ship randomiser and see what I can see?

No such generator exists, apparently! Woe. Hmm...

1. Martin had brown hair and freckles just like hers. He never had money to buy new things - what did Muggles buy anyway? Cars? Plugs? Underwear? - because whenever the rich stupid Muggles gave him a reward for saving them, he'd give it to puppy shelters or Christmas charities. He was so noble. Not a hero at all, just a boy like her (well, Ginny was a girl, but she could have been a boy, although girls were better) who did heroic things with plugs and batteries. And kind things and brave things and clever things, and Fred and George were wrong when they said he didn't exist: if Harry Potter existed, so did Martin. She'd show them all. She'd become Mrs Martin Miggs: girl hero with her very own set of batteries one day ( ... )

4. Neville's face was the colour of sliced-up plums, and Ginny realised she was hungry and probably somewhat crazy ( ... )

Oooh, both of these are excellent.

The Ginny/Neville is probably my favorite of the five. (I may be biased because this is my new PetShip.) You wrote it perfectly. The comfort and fear and familiarity all blended perfectly. I love how quickly Ginny discarded the issue of Harry in order to get some Neville!Action.

I also liked reading Ginny being cruel to Harry because it is the only way I can see that relationship ending. Beautifully written and biting.

Oh.. I love it! I love all of it!

How Ginny falls for Martin Miggs, and Vivienne and Pomfrey's Smuggled Ointment and Neville! Oh, Neville!

And how she ends things with Harry, somehow, it fits perfectly.

Hmmm, I likes the first one. The voice is perfect for young!Ginny. Particularly "she could have been a boy, although girls were better" and also "girl hero with her very own set of batteries one day". They make me remember times when I was younger and Girls>Boys in all circumstances. Well, actually, that's still true.

And, the Vivienne one was also good. I likes the dialogue and the description of Vivienne.
