I was bemoaning the dearth of Ron/Snape fics with thetreacletart when she suggested a Ron/Snape ficathon. Unable to leave a good idea alone, I thought how few good Percy fics there are in the world and then froze in indecision, because I couldn't possibly do both.

For those of you who haven't been suckered into participated in a Ficathon: A Ficathon is a challenge to write about a particular character or pairing. You request a certain type of fic (first time, with fruit), and delineate what you prefer not to see (naked house elves). Then you are assigned someone's challenge in return. You would have a period of about six-eight weeks to write the story.

Do you have any interest in participating in a Ficathon (after the Ron Ficathon is a fond, fading memory)? Would you participate in a Ron/Snape Ficathon? A Percy Ficathon? Some other character or pairing? Do tell.

Might you consider broadening it to "Weasley/Deatheater?" That would include Ron/Snape or Percy paired with Snape, Draco, Lucius, etcetera.

But after seeing a Ron/Narcissa pairing I thought Ron/Lucius would be a natural (pureblood pride!), and there just ain't anything decent (or suitably indecent) out there with that pairing...

I've never participated in a ficathon, don't know whether I could write smut or Weasley POV, but I'd be willing to give it a shot if I could get Ron/Lucius in return...

[cheshyre]

On the other hand, if you did do an all-Percython, I wonder what fics this picture might inspire:

Yum.
[He also says he reads the stuff so maybe take up a collection of quality works to send him...]

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Yes, but the goal is to end up catering to my personal fetishes (hee).

I like the Weasly/Deatheater fic., I've got something in the wings for a Ron/Voldemort, Ron/Lucius fic. It was a dare. Anyways, either way, count me in. Even though you don't know me. All are pretty good ideas.

[wildebeth.livejournal.com]

I would participate in either if the deadline is in...May. :P *bemoans the lack of a Percy icon*

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

May might be a little late. April perhaps. Late April.

[opens, then closes mouth with a snap] .... (You know what I would say, don't you? An all Ron-ficathon. Which gives better odds that you'll write another Ron/Sirius. >D)

[runs for the hills instead]

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid snoopypez has done that already. Watch for it. 48 Ron stories coming out on Ron's birthday (Feb 29/Mar 1). There's a good chance of some Ron/Sirius, but that's not what I drew.

You don't have an "either" choice.

Percy would be my first choice. I've been torturing writing about him the last coupla days, having apparently decided he hides stuff under his perfect robes (I didn't decide this on purpose...anyway). But I'd go for either.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

It's check boxes, so you can pick both. The fates seem to be favouring Percy so far.

I could use some motivation to write some Ron/Harry!

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Tempting offer. But that's being done over at the Harry/Ron FQF as we speak. Do you want to jump on the bandwagon there? Not a lot of time left, but still doable if you have bold, fast betas.

Percy! End of April would be the best time for me -- I've already got two challenges due the 15th and 16th.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

That would probably be about the right time, actually. If I started the challenges in the beginning of March, gave people a week to sign up, then -- yeah, it would be about six-eight weeks. Enough time to do them, not enough time to forget about them.

I have never written Percy, not even as a minor character, but I've always wanted to :)

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

There definitely seems to be more takers for the broader Percy ficathon, and I've been collecting Percy stories for a while now. This would make the collection process a bit easier. ;)

*squees wildly for percy ficathon and runs away*

*squees wildly back and tries to imitate Icarus-in-the-mirror but runs the wrong way*

I'd be happy to participate...as a reader & reviewer. I haven't written any fanfic so I'm not sure something like this should be my first attempt. I've only written little bits of orignal erotica type stuff before...not sure if I have the knack for fanfic.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

These fests would not survive without the dedicated reader. :D

Icarus

[merrycontrary.livejournal.com]

Whee! I would participate in both of those (though I would favor the Ron/Snape).

Then again, I've also added a vote for a Weasley ficathon, as it would cover all of the above.

[abigail89.livejournal.com]

Although, Ron/Snape would be wicked fun to write.

[nataliadarimini.livejournal.com]

*angrily*
Percy, Percy, Percy!
Everything's about *him* nowadays!
Is there nowhere I can go to escape this ginger-haired menace?

eheh.

I had to vote for him because, as much as I love Ron (and I do. Just look at the icon.), my love for Percy is greater. Ah, Percy.
*happy sigh*

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

34 Percy votes. That says it all.

Icarus

[cheshyre]

Just FYI, since you've been looking for them and don't seem to be on blond_azkaban, hpslashcorner has just posted a Ron/Snape story.
[Though I don't go looking for that pairing, if you want I can let you know when I encounter them]

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Please do. It's rare that anyone even attempts it, though I confess I'm no fan of non-con unless it's only questionable consent.
