Fandom Discussion: New HBP Additions -- yea or nay?

[themostepotente]

Since there have been several new character additions from HBP, I decided to do a post to see who took a shine or a dislike to whom -- and also to discuss new favorite ships.

I see no reason really to put this behind a cut. But I implore you, if you have not yet read HBP, DON'T peruse the comments!

So without further adieu...

What new characters did you like/dislike?

What new ships (or renewed interests in old, forgotten ships) have tickled your fancy?

I'm in love with Merope Gaunt's name. Seriously.

I adore Luna Lovegood. I think I might have to ship her with Voldemort because I can't stand it. I will write that. I played with the idea before HBP and now...*dies*

I ilke Slughorn. I like him for being such a consummate Slytherin.

Draco/Pansy. *loves*

Draco/Snape. *Fans self* GUH.

Harry/Draco, for obsessive!hate!sex and nothing remotely relationship-ish. "Tell me what Draco Malfoy is doing inside you." *SNORT* Indeed, JKR. Do tell.

Lucius/Narcissa. My second OTP. *pets them* The Malfoy family dynamic made me clap with glee. I knew she loved him. No trophy wife, my Cissa. Er...Cissy?

Bellatrix/Rodolphus. Because my OTP is crazy, psycho love. Though Bella is slightly less-psycho.

That being said...Bellatrix/Voldemort. Just because. Rodolphus can watch, if he gets out.

Finally, my favorite slashy all-about-the-dominance-fight pair...

Lucius/Rodolphus prison sex.

GUH.

Yeah. That'd be all :)

I just want to hug Merope and say "It's not worth it, he's not worth it, get the hell out of England and far away from your family!"

But then we wouldn't have Voldemort. *hugs Voldemort*

But...yeah. Really. That story never ends well. I might have shown her a mythology book, and pointed out what happens to the mortal her namesake fell in love with. "See? Rocks are BAD."

Lucius/Rodolphus prison sex.

The guards must watch them tussle in the showers. *G*
