Adhémâra 🌖

The abandon corridor on the 4th floor of the ministry was dimly lit, the only sound was the distant hum of the elevator and the frantic beat of Harry’s own heart. They were barely able to slip away, voices still echoing in the distance, when Draco shoved Harry against the cool stone wall. One hand braced against the wall to Harry’s left while the other pressed firmly over Harry’s mouth. A muffled, involuntary whimper escaped against Draco’s palm

“Quiet,” Draco hissed, voice hot against Harry’s cheek. Harry’s breath stuttered against Draco’s hand. Before he could even register it, Draco leaned in close. “Make one sound and we’re dead.”

From up close, Harry could see Draco’s eyes; Pale, icy silver starlight edged with something deeper. The eyes that were once cold and cutting, burned with something raw and intense. This wasn’t his Malfoy. The man who found him bleeding, and drenched behind the ruins of Diagon Alley now looked at him like a ghost. Because in this world Harry Potter was supposed to be dead. Voldemort had won and began his rein over the wizarding world.

Yet here he was. Alive and so full of fire and fight, breathing rapidly against Draco’s skin and so utterly present that Draco couldn’t look away.

SHE IS THE ONE WHO LEAD HIM ON!! She makes him feel bad because she wants to be with him and he's denying her! He told her they couldn't be together, that he doesn't want to be accused of leading her on, and she ACCEPTED that break up but then she goes and tries to shag him anyway?? Without even asking??

Hello consent? Are you in THAT room?

Everyone in book 6 was pushing Harry to be with Ginny. Everyone seems a big Ginny fan out of nowhere for no reason. For me, Harry, who always tries to fit in, just unconsciously went along the ride because everyone was doing it.

Which explains why he always thinks of her through the extension of somebody else (Dean, Ron's little sister or even that mysterious tall, normal unpleasant man Harry said he was replacing but also fantasies Ginny to marry).

The Horcrux plotline could’ve been THE thing that brought those two together. Because Ginny was literally possessed by a Horcrux for a whole year. She of all people should understand what it’s like for Harry - a Horcrux himself - to feel so mentally violated by Voldemort. And honestly this is why I shipped them as I was reading the books; I figured that’d be a beautiful way of bonding them in the future.

But instead…when Ginny mentions that experience in the later books, Harry literally says “I forgot.”

EXCUSE ME??????

We’re supposed to believe she’s the love of his life when he FORGOT THAT SHE SPENT A WHOLE YEAR POSSESSED BY HIS GREATEST ENEMY AND HE HAD TO RESCUE HER FROM SAID ENEMY????

(Meanwhile he remembers something Draco looked at in a shop 4 years ago.)

I’m sorry but I just can’t buy that.

Then when they do get together, does it happen because Harry realizes “oh Ginny gets me”? No, it’s because Harry suddenly and abruptly thinks “oh no, she’s hot.”

And then they never talk about Voldemort. He never trusts her with the Horcrux info, the way he trusts Ron and Hermione, his best friends. He gets with her as an escape/way of forgetting what he’s been going through, which is the most shallow excuse for a relationship.

Then she proves she actually doesn’t get him at all, when she says “I knew you wouldn’t be happy unless you were fighting Voldemort.” HAPPY??? Harry is not HAPPY to be fighting Voldemort!! Ginny assumes Harry enjoys being The Chosen One, being the hero that she sees him as. If she really understood him, she would never say that.

We’re supposed to think they’d actually be perfect life partners???

Plus there’s not even a payoff between Ginny and Voldemort in any way. Imagine how satisfying it would’ve been if Ginny got to destroy one of the Horcruxes. Not that Neville didn’t deserve his big moment, but like if Ginny had been in the Room of Requirement fire scene and tossed the diadem into the flames herself, or if she’d been the first one to pick up the Sword of Gryffindor and used it to save some people before tossing it to Neville for him to take out Nagini. Forget her being the main character’s endgame love interest - Ginny herself, as her own character, deserved that closure.

And then the movies didn’t even TRY to fix this - they actually made it blatantly worse by stripping Ginny of all of her book personality, causing their relationship to make even LESS sense.

Hinny are more of an idea of a great couple than actually a great couple. We come up with all these reasons in our heads why they’d be good together, but JKR never actually puts those reasons into the text or makes them a proper part of the story to give their relationship real development. Instead, she makes it extremely superficial and, in many ways, toxic.

Harry avoided girls like her but then he suddenly decides to like her for no reason??

I feel like Harry's chest monster thing and animalistic thoughts stems more from the deep connections Tom Riddle's soul had with her than Harry liking her. Remember, she poured her soul out into the Diary. My guess is that it's the Horcrux inside of Harry making him so interested into her.

Because there is no logical explanation for his sudden fixation on her when he never gave a single care about her previous books. He didn't even want to talk about Sirius in book 4 because she was here! Nor about the Horcruxes and what he was planning!

I have no idea what Joanne thought she was doing with Ginny but...it flopped.

I will never get what she was doing with this character. You can tell she was trying to make Ginny the perfect girl. And imo that's where she went wrong. Who the hell relates to perfect?

Ginny went from being virtually nonexistent (to the point Harry didn't even remember her half the time) to this over the top Ginny is soooo amazing BS. She's smart, she's funny, she's sassy, she's pretty, she's a brilliant fighter and Quidditch player, ALLLL the boys want her, AND she smells like flowers!!!

It was just too much too soon. And A LOT of Ginny was telling us she's these things vs showing us these things. We're told Ginny's so funny, we're told she's strong, we're told everything about Ginny without really discovering it for ourselves. How many times did we hear secondhand accounts of Ginny's supposedly amazing bat bogey hex? 😒

No, it is not. NottPott is the next Jegulus, but you are not ready for that talk yet.

Drarry is the next Jeverus

@gillfox told me to drop the fics on this post, so here we are! 😆

These will not be in any particular order! I'm just going to go through my bookmarks on AO3 and list them! And the unaware ones are my opinion due to courting fics and what they consist of!

Some are dark and unhinged which I have already explained I enjoy, but if that is something you do not just read the tags and ignore! But most are fluffy!!

Late night winter walk

“oh? how so?” harry asked, distractedly. his eyes found their way towards the slytherin table. specifically towards theodore nott, who currently was currently yawning over a piece of toast as tracy davis braided his hair.

ron rolled his eyes, “everyone knows it. the notts came over with the vikings, seem to forget they aren’t warriors anymore. you’d be hard pressed to find a nott in the family tree that hasn’t killed one of their own.”

hermione perked up, adding something about an old article she read about nott’s mother dying in mysterious circumstances, but harry wasn’t listening anymore.

he was, of course, looking at nott again.

the boy in question had rolled his sleeves up, revealing those absolutely fascinating runic tattoos that decorated his arms. catching harry’s eye, nott raised an eyebrow at him.

harry felt his cheeks heat up, and ducked his head back down, suddenly fascinated by the half-eaten scrambled eggs on his own plate.

yes, the notts were very evil indeed.

I decided to practice some profiles and ended up drawing a bunch of HP characters based on book quotes. (I have 2 more pieces like this with some of the adult characters. I will clean them up and post them too).

Under the cut are the quotes I used as references for the characters' appearance, because too much research went into that.
