Story Recs!! CEDRIC stories!!
Gosh darn it, I've done nothing but avoid working on my units and portfolio today. And ha! Lesson plans? Not likely.
I guess every so often you need a mental health day, eh? (What am I, Canadian? I mean, I know it's not far from Maine, but come on.)
Also, have aquired a new obsession with Cedric Diggory. I mean... I always loved him. Always have been all sniffly and waving my little "Remember Cedric Diggory" sign... but the movie? I think I had built Cedric up quite a bit without knowing it.
So, I went on a search across the internet-from Sugar Quill to Fiction Alley to the Pit. And I've been reading Cedric stories.
So, here goes:
Musings. By PiperX.
Cedric and Cho by the lake after the Second Task, discussing Harry. I LOVE this one.
Astraea by Tannhäuser.
Oh, I have few words for how I love this. Cedric as a 3rd year. Professor Kettleburn! Who is quite cool! And... Just read it.
To Be Hufflepuff by Ciircee
I come back to this one again and again. It may not be perfect, but I love it. A prefect explains to the newest Hufflepuffs what it means to be a Badger, in the fall after Goblet of Fire.
Pride Before Fall by Canadian Pixie.
Cedric's POV of the 3rd Task, worth it just because I really can see Cedric's worst fear being... that. And it makes me love this.
That Will Never Die by Twinsais.
So, faulty italics aside, this is not a bad fic. Harry, post HBP, runs into Mrs. Diggory.
A Terrible Fate by Fionnabhair Nic Aillil.
Okay, wasn't sure at first, but the 3rd part won me over. 3 interactions between Cedric Diggory and Ginny Weasley, 1 for each school year. The last seems so... Cedric.
Eve by Arctic Demon.
Totally surprised me. This is actually Founderfic, but...
"Genesis" prompt fic by scoured.
Written for the first challenge at hp500, this ficlet traces Cedric through his sorting, Quidditch and entering his name for the TriWizard Tournament. Characterization is on. My only issue is that the Sorting Hat makes a comment about no one wanting to be sorted into Hufflepuff. I SO beg to differ. ;) ::points to icon:: Otherwise, I agree with the Hat.
Okay, wound up spending about 3 hours searching about for Cedric fic, and there is a distressing lack of it.
I am now pouting.
Any one care to find me something marvelous? Or write it for me? ;)
Sigh. I am a Cedric fangirl. And have always been-I just didn't know it. God help me.
ETA: I have a Cedric fic request going here. But comments here work, as well.
I want book!canon-compliant Cedric. Sigh. So much.
