I think Snumbledore and Snagonagall both deserve to be popular ships, and it really makes me sad that it's not. 😭

LET'S MAKE SNUMBLEDORE GREAT AGAIN! (AND SNAGONAGALL TOO 🥰)

(And also everyone should become Ron fans because Ron Weasley is the best character.)

[potterblog]

poor Draco 😭😭😭

One day he'll meet his soulmate Dudley, and they'll both be so happy together 😍

Does anyone else ship Drudley?

Reblog if you agree that both our boys deserve happiness!

Let's Make Drudley Great Again!

James & Regulus: *kissing*

Sirius: If this Firewhisky doesn’t knock me out, Moony, just hit me with the bottle

Coming Soon: HP Horrible Goose Fest

Are you a writer avoiding your WIP by enjoying a nice lunch with a friend?

Or playing a fun game?

Or tending your garden?

Well, not for long.

It's a lovely morning in the Harry Potter fandom and we're here to find you a horrible goose.

Announcing HP Horrible Goose Fest!

If you're a writer with a WIP that needs a little bit of encouragement to get over the finish line, we'd love to help you find a goose (horribleness optional) to pester, prod, or push you along.

And if you make a great fic cheerleader, maybe you'll find that your angel wings are actually of a more avian variety, and you should think about joining us as a goose.

More details to come soon!

Introducing a Harry Potter fest to haunt you…

...as not all that goes bump in the night is meant to be feared…

Gothic Fantasy Fest is a Harry Potter fanworks fest dedicated to and centered around our love for the gothic horror genre!

This fest is hosted by The Writing Heirs of Slytherin Discord Server.

Fest Information

The inspiration to host this fest came out of our desire to see more fanworks in the fandom where the darkness within us all is celebrated, embraced, and reveled in.

The premise for this fest is simple: Create any fanwork (fic or fanart) you like, ensuring that your main protagonist of your work is a Slytherin!

But, and this is where the challenge comes in... your fanwork must incorporate one of the gothic horror prompts that we have provided and must be in the gothic horror genre!

We hope, through participating in this fest, that you’ll allow yourself to indulge in what haunts you most!

Ensure that your main character of your fanwork is a Slytherin (no exceptions)!

Any Slytherin from any of the Wizarding World eras is welcome. You may also choose to headcanon a non-Slytherin character as a Slytherin.

Your fanwork must incorporate one of the 99 gothic horror prompts that we provide. There are 12 additional Author/Artist’s choice prompts, however, those are first come, first serve. So, they will go quick!

Ensure that your fanwork qualifies as gothic horror. Read our full rules at the link listed below for further clarification on this.

The darker your fic the better, as this fest is the perfect opportunity to create some dark, morally gray, and/or dead-dove works!

Authors: there is no maximum word count for your work. But there is a minimum word count of 1,000 words.

Artists: As long as you follow the guidelines above, you may submit any form of fanart you like, including moodboards! However, AI-generated work and commissioned work from other artists may NOT be submitted!

This fest is an Author/Artist Revealed event. Your fanwork will be revealed on the dates listed above. When the fest is over, we will highlight your fanwork across our social media from Oct. 31st - Nov. 9th.

You do not have to be a member of The Writing Heirs of Slytherin Discord to participate in this fest. However, we do recommend joining so that you can be in contact with other Gothic Fantasy Fest participants! It’s also the quickest way to get a hold of the admin team!

Note: Our server has a 30+ age requirement to join, but this fest is open to fic writers and artists of all ages!

I love being a multishipper in the marauders fandom. Two characters exist? Yeah, sure they can kiss why not. I can see it. And we can literally just change bits and pieces of the characters to make them fit better if we really want to because we made them up in the first place.

It’s like a small child smashing two barbies together to make them kiss. If we say they can work together as a ship, then it will happen. Literally nothing can stop us.

Any sort of harassment will not be tolerated.

- Any work created should center Percy Weasley in some way or another. -  Works should be newly made for this event and you can start creating anytime! - Works should be added to the Change_is_Perceivable_2024 collection over on Ao3 (it’s closed for now but I'll open it on August 22nd) - Fic minimum: 100 words no max - Art can be any medium and no minimum on what you can make. A sketch, a doodle, a moodboard. If you want to show love to Percy I will not hold you back. - AI-generated pieces will be not be accepted - Feel free to combine with other fests if they also allow it! - For anything that's done using someone else’s fic (Podfic/bookbinding) make sure they allow it. By either asking directly or looking for a blanket permission statement on their account - If you tag your works on tumblr with #ChangeIsPerce2024 I’ll reblog it c: - This is a very low stakes event. Feel free to participate everyday or for only a single day.

Art claim!! my piece I did for @unleashed-fest

based on @crazybutgood prompt :3

Hogwarts Fourth Year: While Ron is grateful for Pigwidgeon, he sometimes finds himself wistfully remembering the times he spent with 'Scabbers' -- before the reveal in Third Year, anyway. One such night, he's startled and wary to find a rat scampering around, until Viktor appears, looking for his escaped pet. They eventually bond over pets, grief, comfort, Quidditch, and many other things as they start to develop feelings for each other.

I'm including two more sketches i didn't have the time to finish :3

And, thank you @orange-peony for making me like these two, now i ship them harder 🥺

We don’t see Kingsley Shaklebolt in the Marauders fandom as much, but his ship names are so fire:

⚜️ Kingpin (Remus/Kingsley)

⚜️ Blackbolt (Sirius/Kingsley)

⚜️ Madkings (Madeye Moody/Kingsley)

Like, you can’t tell me that Kingpin doesn’t sound like a dark enemies-to-lovers/forbidden love story between: The scarred Mafia boss w/ a secret (Remus) -&- The Minister of Magic trying to put him in Azkaban (Kingsley).
