Lol
Really, tear-jerking fics are tear-jerking. Just finished
reading this one angsty fics. God. HPDM fics really owned that section. Their
brand of angst is totally different from the one that I read in another fandom
(i.e Merthur and Sasunaru)
I have a weakness for HPDM that have those next-gen ppl wif
them. Especially Scorpius. The fandom paint him as something lovely. I remember
this one particular fic (forget title, the author is jinko in ffnet if I’m not
mistaken). Scorpius is their son, through surrogate mother (not mpreg, woot)
and the future is one that the light side is losing. Everyone is dead, and the
final straw is when Harry himself is dead, so Scorp, somehow a
potion-genius-mentored-by-Snape-and-schooling-at-muggle-school made a Time
potion and go back to the past. At each new chapter, there will be excerpt of
Scorp’s journal from the future. It’s an honest-to-god-heart-wrenching opening
excerpt that you’ll ever read. I hate Future!Harry a bit. Too trapped in his
own sadness to remember that Scorp needs him as he’s the only one left. At
least it had that ambiguous happy ending stuff, with the future unknown, people
get together, dear voldie dah kiok though Scorp had to go back to his time and
live there, with limp dat he got at the present time.
And this particular fic I dug in LJ fics rec. I have to lock
my door and barricade it with stuff coz I don’t want my sibling barge in when
I’m tearing up. They’ll mock me. Endlessly. Title: The price we pay for wings
and its sequel. Though the sequel is the one that made me tear up. Author
killed Scorpius. Kejam gile. And Scorp died for Al. My heart yearns to comfort
both Al and Draco. They both love him, and lost him to the new war. And Al,
they’ve only been together for a year before he died. By the time Draco and Al
both cried on Scorp’s death anniversary in Al’s room, I legitly cried. Why kill
a likeable character? Suck big time author. Though it kick the angst bone
somewhere in me.
Merthur brand of angst is mostly on the lie that Merlin is
magic and he hides it, and they play on it. Even in modern AU, Merlin always
has a secret. Sasunaru brand of angst lies on their life, and their personality
(Sasuke is the epitome of emo-ness). HPDM brand of angst lie on their
personality, the war, their past, their stance, the community, their
everything. In HPDM, you can always dig in good amount of angst with enough
fluff to balance it. And Plot. They own plot. They can write mysteries, with
romance on the side. If you want a good romcom, flangsty stuff, Merthur Modern
AU totally owned that. And a good, aww-gushing, PWP would be sasunaru forte
(DMZ, till date, is still my fav).
Ahahahaha. I love Scorpius Malfoy. More so than Al. hahaha. blonde always appeal to me
