This Week's Theme: Kidnapping!

Sep 13, 2010 20:44

Hello, darlings!

Many apologies for the lack of activity over the past few weeks; it's been one of those times in which other commitments have taken over the lives of mods (especially this one). However, this has given some of you time to add yet more suggestions to older themes; for that, we (and fandom in general) thank you ( Read more... )

Title: A Year Like None Other
Author: aspenlight
Kidnapped Character(s): Harry, Draco.
Author's Summary: COMPLETE. It all started with a letter from home and family. Except, Harry doesn't really have either, does he? He's about to get them. A Snape-adopts-Harry story providing an alternate 6th year. Winner: Multifaceted Best Genfic, Best Draco Fic.
Contributor's comments: The kidnapping(s) are key parts of the story, but not the focus of the story. This story is finished, but its second sequel (A Family Like None Other) is not.

Title: Dark Beginnings
Author: Dzien
Kidnapped Character(s): Harry.
Author's Summary: First part in the Nameless Series. This story follows on from OoTP. After leaving King's Cross station with the Dursley's, Harry was abducted by Death Eaters. Such an experience is bound to leave scars...
Contributor's comments: The Nameless Series is pretty much the only reason I still look at ( ... )

Hmmm... the first one that comes to mind is the less known than it should be "Hearts Open":

Title: Hearts Open (at the Close)
Author: literaryspell
Kidnapped Character(s): Draco
Author's Summary: Harry wins the war and loses himself. It’s Draco’s job to heal him, but that might just be impossible. Especially after Harry takes matters into his own hands.
Contributor's comments: Heed the warnings! There really is no exaggeration in them. Also, knowledge of just what the Stockholm syndrome is will help understand quite a few things about this story. In all, this story is as fascinating as it is creepy. These are my bookmark tags for this story and should serve as additional warning and summary: harry-potter * harry/draco * future * ewe * healer!draco * crazy!harry * disability * oc * teddy-lupin * angst * drama * romance * dark * <21,000 * rating:adult * author:literaryspell

Sorry to get back to you so late!

We haven't had many art recs, but reccing art is definitely allowed! So thank you for sharing that with us!

To your second question: Yes, we welcome recs for older themes; please make sure they are added to the correct post and not to later ones (like the most recent). When jaime27 started our community, she advised members that additions to older rec lists would be added to the del.icio.us list as she had time; this is still the case (possibly even more so!).

We do not close the threads; in fact, we occasionally host "Catch-up Weeks" to remind members that they can (and should) keep adding to the lists. We do want to maintain an excellent list of recs by theme, and the best way to do so is to continually update it.

Thank you so much for your contributions present and future, and for asking such great questions! One of the items on the mods' Task List is to create a FAQ page, and these are great ones for us to include.

Ooh, that's good then, I'll be adding quite a few to the list this weekend. I've been trying to make lists of unusual hp fanfic themes I like to read (like "amusing Voldemort defeat"), but because I have so many bookmarks, and all those "normal" themes keep getting in the way, I haven't got along too far. :D So this way, I can weed things out. (Thank god for delicious' export bookmarks feature! Saves typing time ( ... )

Title: Porn Star
Author: Reba Williams
Kidnapped Character(s): Hermione
Author's Summary: Hermione watches Harry in a porno movie and has to find out why. We follow their adventure as they discover why Squibs are missing. Contains Slash, Het and Multiple Partners.
Contributor's comments: This may be an abandoned WIP, but the final chapter (updated 2 years ago) leaves us at a point that is not a cliffy. I actually did follow it for several years. As you might guess, it's porntastic, but the kidnapping aspect is a huge part of the second half of the story.

Title:The beggar thief
Author: gravidy
Kidnapped Character(s):Various Pureblood Children and Hermione
Author's Summary:Hermione Granger doesn't believe in things that have never been seen. But then, she doesn't believe in a lot of things anymore.
Contributor's comments:
This is one of the only two DM/HG fics i ever liked. The characterizations are spot on, the tension and direness of the entire situation always has you on the edge of your seat and their not quite relationship is really lovely. Not to mention its completely canon compliant (well until the epilouge at least, but then again who doesnt ignore the epilouge)

Title:Wisps
Author:Deathjunke
Kidnapped Character(s):Draco Malfoy
Author's Summary:Sometimes it's like these things never happened, like wisps of smoke they fade away but the taste still lingers
Contributor's comments: Well I cant really comment on it because i wrote it but i've been tld that its a very interesting read (--Master_o_love) and affecting characters (--blinkn) Its one of my favorite fic that i have written.
