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?

*jumps on with both feet* Fenrir. Jeebus but he's potent material. Even with Lupin I was never sure how vicious werewolves could be in the Rowlingverse and the answer is: extremely. Makes the stakes that much higher for Lupin to get ...entangled.

And there will be chan. Oh ho HO will there be chan. *squicks slightly, limps, walks it off*

I got right back in love with Dumbledore, saw Harry/Dumbledore for the first time, maybe it was Dumbledore being all heroic and virile and ...never mind. Ew.

Hagrid/Olypme!

I'm thinking of a sexy fluffy fic involving Bill and Fleur's wedding night...which let's say...happens to be near a full moon...and Remus comes to see if they're alright, certain wine is drunk, etc. However I practically forgot who Bill was in this book, kept mixing him with Charlie, so that needs some clarifyin'.

Bellatrix/Snape/Narcissa. Everyone's thinking it, Pettrigrew's filmin' it. Hehehe.

Tom/Harry, Harry/Draco, Draco/Myrtle. ...what? Did I mention Gauntcest? Pretend I didn't say anything.

I think what's better than all the nifty new pairing possibilities is that there are a ton of genfic opportunities to be had. I would love a flashback MWPP era Slug Club scene. Lucius being told his son had failed.

but the big'un to come out of this book, somewhat accidentally?

Snapledore. *ew* *aw* *ew* *aw*
