I just remembered my old deviant art login info from when I was like 13/14 JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ
I was posting every day like it was my JOB for 0 likes on every drawing πππππ just goes to show that when you love it you keep doing it anyways.
Here are some of the highlights (this is only a FRACTION of my old HP fanart but there was also so much manga, atla etc etc etc ππ)
I remember I used to get soooooo mad at my mom whenever she would look at my art and be like βwow thatβs good but I think you should add backgrounds, learn anatomy, practice drawing hands etcβ (she was right I always hid the hands in pockets or behind the body LMAO)
#hinny was my otp#and I have been a Ron lover my whole life#I hate the trend of Ron bashing lately!!! and he wasnβt stupid eitherπ€π€π€#maybe Iβll recreate some of these ππ#also this was before I had a cellphone#so I would scan everything and then painstakingly use Paint to put white around the edges#and it still looked so badπππππ#omg I remember once I gave this girl a drawing bc we were friends#(some melancholy anime girl I think)#and I CAUGHT HER ERASING MY SIGNATURE AND PUTTING HER NAME#there was almost a fistfight during recess that dayπππ#also I was insufferable in middle school. I used to write and illustrate βnovelsβ in notebooks#and then force everyone to read them and tell me how good it was JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ#I get so embarrassed thinking about myself πππ

Unpopular opinion #3 (since people seem to like these stuff)
I'm gonna get hate for this but
Hinny feels forced and out of nowhere to me.
They had the perfect set up for a cute romance. Best friend's younger sister whom he's used to take care of, but suddenly she grows, doesn't seek his attention anymore and he slowly gets to know her as her own person instead of his buddie's sister. He find himself drawn to her and feels guilty about it for the typical reasons, only to realize she feels the same way, always has, and boom, their feelings finally clash in a passionate kiss after months of sexual tension and years of mutual pining. Beautiful.
Or at least that's what could have been if we saw them interacting more after the Chamber of Secrets thing, but we don't. Ginny practically dissapears after that, we only know of her through others' pov, and when she finally becomes relevant in harry's radar is when she's dating other boys and shows her skills in the quidditch field. Then suddenly, he notices how beautiful and funny she is, even though they're from the same house and they've surely seen each other often, either at the Burrow or around the common room.
They don't have a proper built-up, or any relevant interactions that hints at harry's interest in her, at least not enough to showcase the epic endgame couple they're supposed to be. It feels to me like the recurring trope that when a girl is in love with the protagonist long enough, she's bound to end up with him. Or the when someone is in love with you for so long, you must give them a chance.
I think one of the reasons it pisses me off so much is ginny's wasted potential. Because we could have had an amazing and compelling story about personal growth with a girl that, sick of being in her brothers' shadow and overlooked, finds the courage to forge her own path and make people recognize her for who she is, not as another Weasley. A story where, instead of fooling around to "make time" until her crush to notices her, she moves on from him and starts to date boys because she actually likes them and enjoys dating.
But no. Instead, all that development from her part is reduced to "hermione told me you might like me if i acted more like myself" "she told me to date other boys" bla bla bla
In conclussion:
Hinny had great potential as a love story, but it was done poorly
(REMINDER: This is just my opinion, and by no means i intend to force it unto other people or offend anyone. if you like hinny as a couple, good for you. I won't attack you because of it)
#i love ginny weasley as her own character#she's a fucking badass and a damn queen#but when it comes to her relationship with harry potter?#EW#no thank you i'll pass#i hate when a girl's personal growth is built around her hopeless crush for a guy#she had all the reasons in the world to want to grow as a person but an unrequited crush WASN'T one#like it could have been great and one of my otps#but we don't see them interacting not even as friends#and suddenly he's completely in love with her?#we know ginny was into him from the start#but we don't see any indication on harry's part until it's already shoved in our faces#it would have been much better if she actually moved on from harry but fell for him again eventually once they became friends#and show us how harry slowly sees her as a girl he's attracted to and not just as ron's sister#as well as his inner turmoil because of it#anyway#thank you for attending my ranting#harry potter#ginny weasley#hinny#anti hinny#aesthetically they're great#but i love more the βwhat could have beenβ in my head#hp rants#pro ginny weasley#to remind people i don't hate her

how does it feel to carry the hinny fandom on your back?? bc you eat up these fics every time πππ
If I can contribute to the survival of my OTP then I will have done my job. I know this is not at all what you meant, but using this as an opportunity to shout out some of my very favorite fics also carrying the hinny torch:
I love anything by @starlingflight, but particularly:
Bewitched - Spooky Halloween, Muggle (kind of) AU.
Someone Else's Life - I LOVE the characterization in this one, and it's tied up in a really interesting Auror case
Priorities - THIS IS CANON TO ME. Missing HBP moment.
Fallin' All In You & Everything I Wanted - THE definitive missing moments fics - the leadup to and the entirety of hinny's too-short canon relationship. THEY ARE EVERYTHING TO ME.
@takeariskao3 READ HER STUFF, HER HINNY ANGST MAKES ME FEEL SO MUCH:
It's a Match! - Muggle AU, textfic, excellent characterization
my hand's at risk (i fold) - I didn't think anything could make me pro slytherin!Harry but THIS DID. Inter-house quidditch rivalries
Spring Fever - Omegaverse, enter at your own risk but the characterization is chef's kiss. (ngl I had no idea what this meant when I started reading)
The Path From You - Hinny second chances AU. The PINING. The characterization. The mystery. Bodyguard AU sort of??
Already Gone - currently being reworked and re-uploaded but cannot go without mentioning, bc it's that good. Hinny amnesia fic. Keep an eye out
@whinlatter is a mad genius:
Beasts - Ginny's 7th year, canon compliant. SUCH a good character study and deep dive into Ginny, and tbh the most realistic portrayal of the year post war I've ever read. Great hinny moments, their relationship feels so real.
the room at the top of the house - missing Beasts moment but tbh works as a standalone, it's so good.
think/hope - HBP/DH missing moments, post hinny breakup. Has anyone made hinny angst more beautiful? I think not.
Orchards - THE Hinny 6th year summer fic, like it could not be more perfect.
Others you should check out
JSYK ILY by @brightlybound - such a cute textfic that I fell in love with, Muggle AU.
everything i am is yours by @brightlybound again - Muggle AU, childhood friends(ish), so heartwarming and adorable
Persist and resist the temptation to ask you by @nuatthebeach - I'm such a sucker for a childhood friends to lovers fic and this takes the cake
The In-Betweens by @honeydukesheroine - Missing HBP moments, could be canon
@floreatcastellumposts has so many moments I love in her Missing Hogwarts Moments series
I'm sure there are so many others that I'm forgetting at the moment. Pls feel free to reblog & add your favorites too, make it a hinny love fest.

@hprecfest Day 7
Prompt: The best of your OTP
I think it's pretty obvious my Harry Potter OTP is Hinny. Five of my favourite Hinny fics are:
Bewitched by @starlingflight When Luna suggests, after Ginny suffers through the latest in a long line of comically bad dates, that the solution to all of her problems lies in brewing a love potion, she thinks it's all a big joke. Obviously, magic isn't real. Luna's potion recipe is nothing more than a novelty, sold to tourists enamoured with the legends surrounding their historical hometown of Godric's Hollow. Of course, Ginny really should've learned by now that her plans have a tendency to go awry. So it really shouldn't come as that much of a surprise to her when, the very next day, half the town seems to find her utterly...bewitching The only person who appears to be immune to the enchantment she's accidentally cast, is the one person who she wishes saw her as something more than his best friend's little sister; typically, even the miracle of actual magic can't capture Harry Potter's interest, and now he's the only person who can help her fix this latest mess she's created...
A beautiful Not-Quite-Muggle AU where Harry and Ginny are both so in character, and their romance is so sweet. I love how all the events happen on the same day over the years and how incredibly it shows the progression of their relationship.
Orchards by @whinlatter The orchard is a wild, thousand-flower, crumpled-gate, fall-down-fence sort of place, where things grow that you never asked for, that youβd never expect. The summer of β96, the story of something flowery he thought he might have smelled at the Burrow. Canon-compliant, oneshot, summer between OotP and HBP. Non-linear narrative, flashbacks/flash-forwards to DH. Harry/Ginny.
Her post-war fic Beasts is also amazing. The way she describes Ginny's reticence and trauma, and Harry's openness and trauma is great. Her Hermione and Golden Trio are incredible. The description of post war justice and how it's not easy is so well done too.
Coffeehouse AU by @annerbhp Wherein Harry never could help himself from trying to save the day, and Ginny was just trying to survive her shift without killing any of her customers.
All their fics are amazing, but this one is my particular favourite.
mischiefmanaged!verse by irnan Post!dh headcanon, epilogue-compliant; a continuation of irnan's fascination with the question of what-came-after-the-happy-ending. Not in chronological order; but hopefully, doesn't need to be.
Their works are so freaking gorgeous. The descriptions and more importantly the relationships, between the Potter siblings, the Golden Trio and obviously Hinny are AMAZING.
Out of the Mouths of Babes by The_Clockwork_Monk Prompt: βUncle Ron said something about Harry knocking Ginny up, but I donβt know what he means,β Teddy said.
The Weasley family shenanigans are adorable, and Harry and Ginny are written amazingly.
I'm sure I've forgotten some though. There are so many great Hinny fics, it's so hard to choose.

Day 7: The Best of Your OTP
Title: Someone Else's Life (Rated M - 15 chapters - 60k words - Hinny)
Author: @starlingflight
Summary: George nodded. There was no trace of humour on his face now. βDie in a dream, wake up in real life. Simple enoughβ¦ If you're absolutely positive you're in a dream.β
It's four years after the war and Harry and Ginny are partners. In a strictly professional sense. Two aurors on a mission to crack a case that's already left a trail of bodies in its wake.
It's four years after the war and Harry and Ginny are married. Happy. Excelling in their fields as Harry tracks down the last of the Death Eaters and Ginny attempts to make the England team ahead of the World Cup.
When they fall asleep in one reality, they wake up in the other, but are they living in a nightmare or a dream too good to be true? And can they figure out which is which before its too late?
Why I'm Reccing It: Cut me, and I bleed Hinny. Thats just a fact. But picking the best of my OTP was another really tough category for me, because the Hinny nation may be small, but it is mighty. We're blessed with an amazing bunch of writers producing incredibly high quality work; how on earth was I going to pick the best of the best from such an embarrassment of riches?
I'm so glad you asked!
I adore all of Starling's work. She really, really gets both Harry and Ginny, their characters, their relationship, the way they talk to one another (or not...) - everything. I was already a fan of her writing before she came back from a hiatus with this absolute gem of a fic, and it's through chatting in the comments and asks on Tumblr that I got to know her.
Not only is she a fantastic writer, she's unfailingly lovely (no matter what life has thrown at her), a super-helpful beta-reader for my next long-fic and just an all round fabulous person. It's indicative of how lovely our little corner of the fandom is that she's just one of the wonderful people within it that make me so glad I came back to writing last year.

π HSS Rare Pairs 2024: FAQ π
Find more info in our Rules!
π What is HSS Rare Pairs? π
HSS Rare Pairs, or HSS, stands for HP Secret Santa Rare Pairs. We are an anon, multi-ship, multimedia gift exchange focused on HP rare pairs run as a collaboration between the HP Rare Pairs (@hp-rarepairs) and HP Saffics (@hpsaffics) Discord servers. This fest is not self-posting. The mods will post your gifts all through December.
π What is the 2024 Schedule? π
Sign-ups: Aug 13-Sep 3 Gift Submissions Due: Nov 15 Gift Giving: Dec 1-Dec 25 Creator Reveals: Dec 30
π What counts as a HP rare pair? π
Any ships besides these common ships (LITERALLY ANY OTHER SHIP IS OKAY):
Dramione - Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy
Drarry - Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter
Harmony - Hermione Granger/Harry Potter
Harrymort/Tomarry - Harry Potter/Voldemort (Tom Riddle)
Hinny - Harry Potter/Ginny Weasley
Jegulus - Regulus Black/James Potter
Jily - James Potter/Lily Evans Potter
Romione - Hermione Granger/Ron Weasley
Snamione - Hermione Granger/Severus Snape
Snarry - Severus Snape/Harry Potter
Wolfstar - Sirius Black/Remus Lupin
π How is the list of common ships determined? π
Any ship with less than 10K results in an unfiltered AO3 Relationship tag search AND less than 3K results in an βotp: trueβ filtered Relationship tag AO3 search is considered a rare pair!
π What about polyamorous ships? π
Polyamorous ships (triads, vees, quads, polycules, etc.) are always considered rare and are VERY welcome (ex: Hermione/Harry/Ron is allowed even if Hermione/Harry and Hermione/Ron are on the list of common ships)!
π What about a common ship in the background of a work? π
Yes, background common ships are totally allowed as long as the main focus is a rare pair (ex: A Pansy/Ginny story with background Draco/Harry).
π What about OCs? π
OCs may appear in the background of a work, but the main ship should involve only established characters from the HP universe.
π Who can participate? π
Anyone aged 18+ can participate with an AO3 account. We also encourage you to be part of the HP Rare Pairs Discord Server, although it is not required.
π Do I need a Discord/Tumblr to participate? π
No, we will be sharing gifts on our Discord and Tumblr, but you do not need to be on either platform to participate. What you do need: an active email address and an AO3 account.
π Is there a limit to the number of participants? π
The 2022 round had 66 sign-ups which was quite impressive. We are tentatively setting a limit of 75 sign-ups for the 2024 round.
π What is on the sign-up form? π
The Sign-up Form is long and thorough. Please make sure to fill out all required sections in order for the mods to make the best possible matches and for you to receive the best possible gifts. This year the sign-up form has 5 sections:
Participant Information (required - for mod use only)
Character and Ship Preferences (required - shared with gifters)
Receiving Preferences (required - shared with gifters)
Giving Preferences (required - for mod use only)
Bonus Questions (optional - for mod use only)
π I donβt like the username I signed up with. Can I change my AO3/Discord/Tumblr username in the middle of the exchange? π
Please donβt. This is confusing for your gifters and makes more work for the mods.
π I messed up on my sign-up form. Can I go back and make changes? π
Yes, you will be able to edit your sign-up form until Sep 3 when sign-ups close. A link to edit should be sent to your email. If you do not see it, please check your spam folder.
π When will I find out my matches? π
We aim to have all participants matched within a week of sign-ups closing. However, it will depend on the modsβ schedules and number of sign-ups.
π What kind of gifts can I create? π
Any type of HP rare pair fanwork that can be uploaded to AO3 are accepted! Here are some examples:
Creative writing (fic, drabble, poetry, epistolary, screenplay, etc.)
Other writing (meta analysis, ship manifesto, recipe, tutorial, stats, etc.)
Art (traditional mediums, digital art, comic, photography, calligraphy, etc.)
Remix art (moodboard, story banner, podfic coverart, gif set, meme fic, etc.)
Craft (origami, bookbinding, embroidery, knitting, papercutting, ice sculpture, etc.)
Audio (podfic, podcast, filk, playlist, etc.)
Multimedia (fanvid, videogame, animation, stop motion, music video, etc.)
Translation
π Is there a word limit for written gifts or gifts based on written works? π
Yes, the minimum is 200 words. There is no maximum. What this means is:
All written works (drabbles, fics, meta analysis, ship manifesto, etc.) must be at least 200 words. If the gift is less than 200 words (a poem, recipe, etc.), the remaining words may be filled by commentary (character analysis, explanation of imagery/themes/word choice, extra description, etc.).
All podfics must be based on a fic that is at least 200 words.
All translations must be at least 200 words when complete.
π What kind of content can my gifts include? π
We accept all content! This includes graphic violence, MCD, rape/noncon, underage, incest, abuse, and dark or triggering themes as long as they are tagged appropriately. The mods will be tag-checking all works. The only restriction is we will not accept NSFW art containing underage characters (which is illegal by US law). If you need help with tagging, you may reference this Comprehensive List of Triggers, Tags & Squicks or ask a mod.Β
π Can I recycle fannish works as gifts? π
No, gifts must be new and created exclusively for the exchange and specifically for your giftee.
π Can I submit an AI-generated work? π
No, AI-generated works are not allowed. If we find you have submitted an AI-generated work, you will be kicked from the exchange.
π Does my gift need to be X-mas/winter themed? π
No, it can be any theme as long as it includes a rare pair.
π How many gifts will I get? π
Every participant will receive at least 2 gifts. They may be small gifts and they may not be exactly what you wished for but they will be made with love and enthusiasm <3
π How many gifts do I need to create to be able to participate? π
You must submit at least 1 gift in order for Santa (aka the mods) to deliver your gifts. Participants are implored encouraged to submit more than one gift. If we have enough gifts, we may be able to give everyone 3 gifts instead of 2!
π Can I submit my gifts anonymously? π
Yes, you may choose to submit your gifts anonymously. In this case you will not be named as a giftmaker in the Creator Reveals on Dec 30. Please tell the mods your preference when submitting your gift. We will contact you about any additional steps.
π How do I submit/deliver my gifts? π
Gifts should be uploaded to the AO3 Collection. Then, please complete the Submission Form, one for each gift submitted. The mods will deliver gifts on AO3, Discord, and Tumblr Dec 1-25.
π Can I make treats? π
No, we are not accepting treats (extra gifts made outside of your matched assignment) for this exchange.
π What if I need an extension or need to drop? π
We get it. Life happens. If you need an extension or need to drop, please email us ASAP. Itβs okay, we understand. Just, please donβt ghost us!
π How will I get my gifts? π
If you are on Discord or Tumblr, we will tag you when your gifts are delivered. Otherwise, your gifts will be delivered directly through AO3. Please make sure you have "Allow anyone to gift me works" checked in your Preferences. When you receive your gifts, don't forget to leave a comment to thank your gifters. We want to make sure they feel appreciated!
π Can I send/receive physical gifts in the mail? π
We are not doing physical gifts as part of the exchange, but you are welcome to coordinate with your gifter/recipient after the fest ends and send physical gifts granted you are both comfortable sharing your IRL addresses.
π Who are the mods? π
@lumosatnight, @nanneramma, @schmem14, @mischiefmandied, @venom0usbarbie and other wonderful helpers from Discord and Tumblr!
π I still have questions/want to find out more. What should I do? π
Message us through email, Tumblr, or Discord! We are always open to chat, answer questions, or flail about rare pairs π
Email: [email protected]
Tumblr: @hssrarepairs

Theyβre my OTP. You could convince me to read or write other characters who end with anyone practically but not Hinny. Never Hinny.
