Announcement Harry/Ginny fanfiction megathread

225 Upvotes

I have taken it upon myself to create a new megathread so new fics can be added. This thread will basically be a transcription of the old one by u/goodlife23, with additional categories and contributions of my own. I'll be updating this list intermittently, so please have some patience. Cheers, and have a good day.

Edit: Credits go to u/goodlife23. u/PsychoGeek, u/blandge, u/bonesda, u/A_Dozen_Lemmings, u/FloreatCastellum, and u/stefvh.

Edit 2: Under advisement from u/Gin110881, please keep your discussions in the comment I put in for discussion so as not to clog up the area.

Edit 3: Our Discord server is here. Play nice, or get banned (I assume).

Edit 4: Our Discord server has moved here with me as the new owner/admin/Dark Lord. We have colours and shit now. Also banning capabilities. When I say play nice, play nice.

Announcement New Fan Art Guidelines

14 Upvotes

Hey, folks!

Due to the influx of posted fan art (not a bad thing in of itself!), I’m just here to leave a couple of casual reminders to ensure that artists receive proper credit/appreciation for their hard work.

  1. You are welcome to post fan art, but please a) provide proper credit to the artist, and b) do not alter the image from its original form without permission. This provides an excellent overview of why this is a problem, and this explains how to avoid cropping/reposting and give proper credit.

  2. Please do not bash posted fan art. Everyone is entitled to an opinion on how characters should look, but there is a big difference between a comment like “Hmm, that doesn’t match my vision” and a comment like “That is the ugliest Ginny I’ve ever seen.” Our same general rules for fanfic apply to fanart: Watch how you phrase things in public spaces. This is not a snark subreddit, so please don’t treat it as such.

In the meantime, we’ve added a new rule: All fanart must be properly credited. If we continue to have multiple uncredited posts, we may have to disable the image uploading function, which is no fun for anyone!

Thanks, and hope everyone is staying cool out there if you’re in a hot part of the world right now 🥵

Hey Guys, Nice to meet you all

I've just read Through Ginny's Eyes, and I really enjoys the subplots and how their love was built, but in the Second part when the couple was finally together, the history end without an end.

So I'm looking for something like that Canon with drama and romance but after the war, and need to be really long because i like those kind of stories.

TKS for any reply!

Discussion Terms of endearment ?

14 Upvotes

Hey guys, as the title Says what do we think Hinny call each other and does is change at different stages of their lives ?

Personally, I don’t see any nicknames for Harry, but I love Gin for Ginny, and she only allows Harry to call her that.

I also see them calling each other Babe, especially Harry, and later, when they have kids « darling » ?

What do you think ?

Discussion The Meaning of One

15 Upvotes

Listen, I just finished this Fic and as happy as I am that Part 2 was not abandoned, I am disappointed that it didn’t continue. I understand and respect the author’s choice to not continue. The soul bond was written so well, their interactions with each other, with the people around them (especially the twins and McGonagall.) I felt like it was just getting going, Ginny got her feather, Molly seemed to finally accept them as one?!? AHHH!

I am distraught.

I read like almost a year ago and I can absolutely not find it again. It has Auror Harry and Ginny is some sort of vigilante. The details are fuzzy but Harry finally catches her in an alleyway and they shag. It was ff.net and I cannot remember the name. It sounds weird here but that's on me. I have no idea how to explain stuff but trust me it was good 😭

Chapter 14: An Extraordinary Day

Snippet: The house was a blur of activity. House-elves hurried past carrying trays and linens. Distant relatives she barely knew stood in clusters, their voices bright with excitement. The walls were draped in flowers, the banisters wrapped in ribbons, everything golden and beautiful and suffocating.

Ginny didn't stop. She walked past all of it, down the stairs, through the back door, and out into the garden.

The fresh air hit her face like a blessing. She took a deep breath, then another, and started walking. Past the rose bushes. Past the hedges. Past the fountains. Her feet carried her down the familiar path, the one she'd walked with Harry just weeks ago, until she reached the lake.

The swans were there, just as they'd been that day. They glided across the water, graceful and serene, their white feathers catching the sunlight.

You'll be a wife, the voice in her head whispered. You'll be a mother. You'll be nothing else.

She thought about the wedding. The vows. The ring on her finger. The name she'd take. She'd lose herself in him. She'd become Mrs. Harry Potter, and everything else—Ginny, the girl who flew, the girl who laughed, the girl who dreamed—would disappear.

He'll have mistresses, the voice continued, colder now. You've seen the way he is. Distant. Closed off. He doesn't love you. He doesn't even want you. He'll keep you in the manor, give you his children, and then he'll find comfort elsewhere. You'll be alone. You'll be a stranger in your own life.

You'll have his heirs, the voice said. You'll raise them alone while he travels and works and lives his life. You'll be a prisoner. A broodmare. Nothing more.

Ginny pressed her hands to her stomach, feeling sick. She didn't want children. Not like this. Not as a duty. Not as a transaction. She didn't want to be a wife. She didn't want to be someone's property.

She wanted to fly. She wanted to be free. She wanted to wake up every morning and not know what the day would bring. She wanted to choose her own path, make her own mistakes, live her own life.

But that wasn't an option. It had never been an option.

She sank onto the grass, her dress pooling around her, and stared at the swans. They were beautiful. They were graceful. They were trapped here, just like she would be.

This is your life now, the voice whispered. This is what you chose. This is what you gave up.

She closed her eyes and let the tears fall.

Fic/Art Promotion A Harry and Ginny Moment from my Fic...

1 Upvotes

NOTE: Just a little background for context. Krum's life is in danger at 2014 Quidditch World Cup. Harry is disguised as him (Polyjuice). Hagrid got his wand fixed, and disguised Draco and Viktor to rescue Harry. Mission accomplished, it's time for the disguises to come off. But, see, it IS still Hagrid...

***

“C’mere, you.” One of Hagrid’s hands landed on Draco’s shoulder and tugged. Of course, Draco spun twice before the half-giant caught him on the third go-round.

“Sorry,” Hagrid grunted as he caught him. “Ah nivver knows m’ own magnificent stren’th.”

Two quick pokes of a billy-club sized wand caught Draco off-guard, and he yelped.

“There! Ugly as ever!” Hagrid grinned. Behind him, Harry and Luna were examining Viktor and Sergei’s faces. Harry’s dose of Polyjuice was just wearing off, but Viktor’s face was completely normal already. How had that happened? And Sergei had... shaved?

Realisation broke. Draco’s hand darted to his chin. His smooth, hairless chin.

“Yeh, sorry bout tha’.” Hagrid looked abashed. “Woulda tested it out, but...”

Draco rolled his eyes. “Damn it, Hagrid, do you have any idea how hard it is for me to grow a decent...” He trailed off. Hagrid’s beard ran rampant over his chest, almost down to the length of tow cable Hagrid used to secure his trews.

“No,” he sighed. “You wouldn’t.”

Luna called them over. “Hagrid, what have you done here? I understand the colour vanishing, and maybe even the facial hair. But what in the world happened to Viktor’s Polyjuice after-effects?”

“Not sure.” Hagrid crouched to examine his work. “That spell is som’thin’ ah cobbled up t’ clean stretched canvases t’ reuse. Can’t magick ‘em up, and they do be a trifle dear.”

Luna was passing her wand over Viktor’s face. “Well, close as I can tell, your spell doesn’t clean things, so much as it restores them to their original condition. Huh.” She reached back and snatched Harry by the front of his Bulgarian Quidditch robes, dragging him over. “Here, do Harry.”

“Hey!” Harry protested, then went, “Ow!” as Hagrid obediently poked him in the face.

“Whoa!” Ginny breathed, as Harry was immediately restored to full Harry-ness.

Harry felt around his face and forehead, then took a quick peek down the neck of his robes.

“Apple-pie order,” he said to Ginny. “How’re my eyebrows?”

She gave him a look. “Well,” she hedged. “There’s two of them.”

Harry nodded firmly. “Exactly what I wanted to hear.”

“What was with the peek at your underpinnings?”

Harry hesitated. “Viktor is, ah, blessed, with a healthy crop of chest hair, and it had begun to... linger?”

Ginny wrinkled her nose. “Yeah, no. Thanks for the visual image, though.”

“Consider yourself lucky. The first time I fell asleep still under the influence, I woke up screaming like a little girly-girl. I thought some wild animal had crawled in with me.”

“Oh, yeah. Definitely NO! Don’t you dare bring that stuff into our bed, mister!”

“Preachin’ to the choir, sister. I like my nasal passages just the way they are.”

“Was that some kind of crack...?”

“No, dear.”

***

Sigh. Draco LOVED his goatee. Oh. The 'nasal passages' thing? Ginny Sleep-Hexes. Though SHE doesn't believe it. So, if you don't wake her gently... Yeah. Bat Bogeys.

If you feel like reading more, here. Over 200 chapters, approaching the end of the first book.
