Is Harry your all time favourite? Give him the gift of a soulmate this Christmas in the HP Soulmates Secret Santa fanfic exchange! Gifts can be as little as 500 words and all pairings big and small are welcome! Interested?

Literally so many ships I have for Harry.

Drarry, Harmione, Rarry|Ronarry, NottPott, Lunarry, Hinny, Hansy, Haphne, Harvati, Frarry, Harlie, Hedric, Nevarry|Heville.

Haphne Aesthetic Moodboard

I love this Gryffindor-Slytherin dynamic. Harry is a celebrity, and I think few girls could handle his fame and temperament.

On the other hand, it's almost a fandom consensus that in fanfics, Daphne Greengrass is portrayed as a hot blonde and ice queen who doesn't let herself be swayed by pureblood prejudices. Despite being friends with Pansy Parkinson, she's a good Slytherin.

I think they work well together, and I think Harry likes pretty girls with personality.

thank you very much for the ask, anon!

fleur delacour/hermione granger

i think this has potential, in that hermione is demonstrably a francophile and one of the few people on earth who has the bulletproof sense of self-righteousness to cope with fleur's ego.

but i think it's not to last. hermione is clearly someone who likes a wife guy [of any gender] uncomplicatedly adoring her. she's going to have a low tolerance for "but your 'air would look so much better eef you just paid attention to eet".

draco malfoy/pansy parkinson

genuinely the relationship in canon [with the possible exception of harry's flop with cho] which feels the most authentically teenage. pansy, baby, he's really not that into you.

luna lovegood/draco malfoy

this got its own shoutout from another mystery anon:

i get it - we all love the "repressed posh boy falls for a free spirit" archetype - but i'm afraid to say it's not a ship i think is watertight, simply because it seems to require so much alteration of both draco and luna's canon personalities in order to make that archetype work.

[by which i mean it's always manic-pixie-dream!luna and suave!draco, two ways of writing them which never, ever slap for me.]

[i also don't like the fanon that she's a pureblood. "xenophilius lovegood" as a name fits the conventions the series uses for half-blood characters (that is, combining an unusual, non-standard-english name with an english surname - see also "mundungus fletcher", "tom marvolo riddle" and "severus snape"), and xenophilius'... esoteric views don't seem - to me - to be plausibly held by someone who is an inherent insider to a community, but by someone who feels peripheral to that community's inherent knowledge and therefore invents his own theories as a way of filling in the gaps.]

cedric diggory/harry potter

harry is canonically desperate for it - since cedric tells him to go gargle his old bathwater and he does.

but it's one-sided, i fear. cedric is demonstrably the hottest boy in school and harry is canonically scrawny and mid.

real ones know that the true potential lies with shipping cedric with ron, thus bringing about the heat death of the universe when harry's unexamined bisexuality catches sight of them canoodling.

daphne greengrass/harry potter

full respect [genuinely] to the self-insert-mary-sue girlies for turning this into a ship with its own lore. harmony nation walked so haphne nation could run.

by which i mean, sure, they work really well as a couple because daphne literally doesn't exist and - therefore - doesn't require the author to think about things like "making her canon personality compatible with harry's".

harry potter/blaise zabini

blaise couldn't pick him out of a line-up, be real.

ron weasley/blaise zabini

this, in contrast? true and plausible.

blaise canonically thinks that ginny's tasty, which means he's not going to turn down her fit, tall, sporty, easy-going brother.

that draco would be rattled is part of the fun.

ginny weasley/ron weasley

Welcome to Sugarfest: A Sugar Daddy Harry Fest!

This is an art and writing fest to celebrate one of the most underrated sugar daddies in fandom: Harry James Potter.

Fiercely loyal and protective towards those he cares about, Harry would make for a dream sugar daddy. He's absolutely loaded, and as we've seen, he's willing to drop 1000 galleons at the drop of a hat.

Coupled with his natural charm and good looks, it's not hard to imagine Harry Potter as the ideal sugar daddy, one with both the influence and the financial means to take care of his loved ones.
