So long, Girl Who Lived Week! We won't miss you!

TITLE: And then there was the lost

EYES: 'violently violet, red tinged eyes'
MARKINGS: none mentioned.
POSESSIONS: none mentioned

ORIGIN: The Girl Who Lived lives with her 'father', who sexually abuses her.
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: I think if you asked the author, she'd get this glazed look and go, 'canon?'

NOTES: This fic is short on descriptions. Nothing is described except for Our Sueoine's vomit. Yes. Vomit.

EYES: 'emerald orbs', over and over again
MARKINGS: none mentioned

ORIGIN: Aliens abducted baby Harry and left this thing in his place, as part of their invasion plan.

Today I saw in a store window a display of baby bibs with various silly slogans on them, including the following:

It's tough to be neat/when your learning to eat!

I don't know who approved that design, but I hope they get attacked by evil apostrophes who went bad because they were denied loving homes.

Girl Who Lived Week, Day Five:

TITLE: Un'ombra solitaria (sorry. Even in Italian, it's still emo.)
PERPETRATOR: i'mtheanarchist

SUE-O-METER: AWFUL (awful)

FULL NAME: Rory Potter Santo. Rory? On what planet is this a girl's name? And Santo? Any relationship to the Mexican wrester?
SPECIES: human/witch
HAIR: 'long auburn hair that fell in curls down her back and over her shoulders'
EYES: 'twinkling brown eyes that was said to have come from her real father as they always looked like she was up to something'
MARKINGS: none mentioned
POSESSIONS: heaps of trendy Muggle clothes

ORIGIN: Is Harry's twin sister, and a prissy, stuck-up celebrity about being the Girl Who Lived. Somehow, the fact that she's supposed to be annoying doesn't really help. Raised by a family called Santo for some reason, and sorted into Hufflepuff. Get out of my House!
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: Harry's twin, is the Girl Who Lived.
SPECIAL ABILITIES: none mentioned

NOTES: Apparently, Harry's going to save his sister's live and realize that she's Not So Bad. Somehow, this fails to excite me. Somehow I want her to turn out to have Voldemort inhabiting her body and go all evil.

Anyway, points to the story for not making the Sue the nominal hero. No points for making it All About Her anyway.

SAMPLE: I Don't Get This At All. )

Hang tight, minions, we're halfway there!

Girl Who Lived Week, Day Four:

TITLE: The Girl Who Lived and her 6th year
PERPETRATOR: Syntaxx

SUE-O-METER: AWFUL (awful)

FULL NAME: Harrie Potter
SPECIES: human/witch
HAIR: not described
EYES: not described
MARKINGS: none mentioned, though I suppose there's the lightning-bolt scar there.
POSESSIONS: none mentioned

ORIGIN: The usual Harry-was-born-a-girl thing. Is saved from Dudley in the park by kids who want to sell her drugs.
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: Pansy Parkinson appears with the druggie kids for no especial reason.
SPECIAL ABILITIES: Apparating at 16.

NOTES: I stopped reading at the drugs bit. I mean... wtf?

SAMPLE: Seriously. What Has This Got To Do With Anything? )

This song has been stuck in my head all damn day.

Girl Who Lived Week, Day Three:

TITLE: The Same Scar
PERPETRATOR: Frank09

SUE-O-METER: AWFUL (awful)

FULL NAME: Marnie Ashford
SPECIES: human/witch
HAIR: not described
EYES: not described
MARKINGS: lightning bolt scar on her hip - which gives her an excuse to strip for Harry on the train. You think I'm kidding, don't you?
POSESSIONS: none mentioned

ORIGIN: This is whole new kinds of stupid! The Avada Kedavra Voldemort used to try to kill Harry went right through the Earth to give the same scar to Our Sueoine, who was directly opposite from him! If anybody is interested, this would put her somewhere in the Antipodes (which are, appropriately enough, the antipodes of England. Awright! I got to use the word 'antipodes'!), despite the fact that she claims she was in Wisconsin.
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: Is Harry's Soul Mate, due to their having been bonded by this spell. Ooookay then.
SPECIAL ABILITIES: Dislocating something of Ron's.

NOTES: At least 'strong, Quidditch-trained arms' is a change from 'Quidditch-toned muscles'. Not that it's any less stupid, but it is a change.

The author and her friends make cameos.

Girl Who Lived Week, Day Two:

TITLE: Harry Potter: The 'Boy' Who Lived
PERPETRATOR: SaphirePhoenix

SUE-O-METER: BAD (bad)

FULL NAME: Hallie Marie Potter
SPECIES: human/witch
HAIR: 'the same midnight shade of brown'
EYES: 'emerald green eyes'
MARKINGS: lightning bolt scar
POSESSIONS: none mentioned

ORIGIN: The Potters never got a chance to tell anybody that their kid was a girl before going into hiding, and then Dumbledore let everybody think it was a boy to confuse the Death Eaters. To keep up the pretense now that she's at Hogwarts, she has to go to school disguised as a boy. Glasses are part of the disguise.
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: Pretending to be part of it.
SPECIAL ABILITIES: none so far.

NOTES: This is pretty bearable as Girls-Who-Lived go... there's actually one line I really rather like:

Dumbledore seemed to think his face on a Chocolate Frog card was better than the Order of Merlin he'd received.

Those points were lost, however, when it is brought to our attention that Our Sueoine is left-handed because the author is.

Screw it, I'm bored and I just saw my future in an action figure. This week is Girl Who Lived Week.

This is fun.

TITLE: Rhianna Potter and The Philosopher's Stone (hoboy.)
PERPETRATOR: LadyPhoenix121

SUE-O-METER: AWFUL (awful)

FULL NAME: Rhianna Lily Potter. Oh, this is gonna be good.
SPECIES: human/witch
HAIR: 'shoulder length wavy black hair'
EYES: 'bright green gold flecked eyes with a mischievous twinkle in them'
MARKINGS: lightning bolt scar
POSESSIONS: none mentioned

ORIGIN: Has kidnapped Harry and taken his place, brainwashing everybody so they won't notice. And for some reason, in her universe Voldemort came to the door when she was five, not one. I think this is so she can angst later.
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: Besides doing unspeakable things to it?
SPECIAL ABILITIES: none so far.

NOTES: That's right - we get a whole week of Harry-replacing Sues! Won't this be fun?! Huh?!? Huh!?!?! HUH?!?!?!?
