Themed list: Werewolves
Posted on June 20, 2008
Filed Under HP themed lists |
The list was compiled for McKay’s (scribbulus_ink), on the occasion of her birthday.
Werewolves in HP fiction.
Have a look at this list compiled by Lira_Snape: A cure for lycanthropy.
What I take:
- since the theme is not Remus Lupin but werewolves, I take fics that deal with werewolves in several particular ways. The fics MUST BE lycanthropy-centric. NOT Remus-centric. The hardship of being a werewolf must be shown in a very detailed way. So, far not every fic where Lupin transforms or where the author muses about the influence of the moon on him qualifies.
- I’m interested in lycanthropy shown either as an illness, or as a social problem, or in the respect of personality traits, as in, care of a werewolf child, werewolf social problems (an inability to find a job that is only mentioned isn’t enough), werewolf physiology and psychology etc. In other words, anything important for understanding lycanthropy.
- of Lupin’s personal history, I accept fics that show us how he was bitten, how he reacts on the lessons about werewolves when he’s a student at Hogwarts, the night of the prank from Lupin’s POV, and some other events that can be considered particularly meaningful.
- we should be shown either serious, or detailed, or novel approach to the problem.
- accepted by default are the fics:
a) where somebody else is turned (except those AU fics where somebody else is a werewolf, as explained in King Draco’s section);
b) where somebody stays with the werewolf when he changes to observe the change or keep him company (and where it’s shown in detail);
c) where we can see things from the changed werewolf POV, when we can see *how* the wolf in the man sees the world.
- I’ll take only a couple of fics that explore the concept that werewolves mate for life that I consider the best, as well as no more than a couple of those that argue the concept.
Anyway, please, remember that the fics must deal with something that can be applied to most lycanthrops rather than only to Remus.
King Draco’s code, or What I don’t take:
- I realise that every other fic featuring Remus Lupin has something to do with werewolves. NOT all of them fit in here.
- please, NO bestiality PWPs written solely for werewolf sex. For them, look at Ntamara’s Mater List of Bestiality Fiction in HP Fandom.
- no fics that deal with lycanthropy in an indirect way (where it’s only mentioned, or where it’s not the main theme).
- no fics where, in the respect of lycanthropy, there’s only Lupin’s transformation and where it shown with the usual degree of detalisation.
- wolf urges close to full moon aren’t enough.
- please, no AU fics where all of a sudden Harry or another character is a werewolf. I’m looking for relatively realistic ways of infection.
- no fairy-tale AUs.
- no WIPs that have only a chapter or two written;
- no drabbles;
- do not bring fics you haven’t read;
- do not bring fics you didn’t like;
- do me a courtesy, please, do not leave only a link. I’d appreciate the following info: author, title, pairing, rating, WIP status; how the fic fits in here.
Fics are sorted in alphabetical order by TITLE (articles excluded, i.e. The Importance of Being Moony is placed under ‘I’)
These are NOT my recs, it’s just a collection of thematic links.

Hello,
this is pj's fannish place made with the goal to be a sort of public library of (or a gateway to) fanfiction. I read mostly slash, I love sex and various kinks, so if you are underage and somehow wormed your way here past net nannies and warnings, please surf responsibly and go somewhere else when you are asked to!
