"Oh you like queer ships because you fetishize them-" NO.

Queer ships are usually built, het ships are usually written. With queer ships, We had to do MORE Thinking on the character's romantic choice and life and how that will impact their lives, and not just say "Well they're canon so they're meant to be"

I literally can't stress this ENOUGH that sometimes queer ships have character development, choices, hardships, culture, and even values that most straight ships may not have or go through.

AND??? THAT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.

The fact that most queer relationships are out of CHOICE and not "fate/destiny" feels so personal and touching for me. ☹️

Most of the queer ships I know don't just ask "Are they meant to be?" Or "Are they good together?", WE ask "Will their love not only create safety, warmth, and acceptance for eachother, but also compatible personality and shared values that creates a sustaining long term relationship?"

With queer ships, we don't have the "societal standards" to expect and follow, but our own values to build, and I think this is what most people are confused about when it comes to queer relationship or couples.

NO, They're not supposed to follow hetnormative standards. They're both of different systems...or different games kinda.

No, most queer ships are not "canon" or "meant to be" or "destined/fated", and that's what makes them feel personal. They're not "supposed to happen", they're not "by the narrative".

Loving queer ships encourage us to think outside of what is "canon" or what is explicitly written and think of the underlying motivations, strengths, and values of one and another character that makes them compatible.

We say "their compatible personality and shared values has potential to sustain a (romantic) long term relationship."

I LOVE queer ships because they are established out of effort, communication, and choice, not out of expectations, power imbalance, and romantic default settings.

Have a good day,

some of these can contradict each other sometimes cuz im a multi shipper.. jus imagine some of these hcs individually 

harry j potter

if he was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

he would have lily & james as parents 🥹 he would visit his godfather & uncle in the summers (im not an intense shipper of them but this is implying wolfstar.. 😛)

sirius would teach him guitar & he’s taking harry on rides in his motorcycle since he was 6 

messy black painted nails 

he would say he hates horror movies but be strangely addicted/intrigued everytime one was on

secret rom com enthusiast

addicted to video games (he mainly plays FIFA with harry)

honestly he’s just the king of games in total cuz he’s amazing at every board game too. his family and/or friends avoid doing game night when they hang literally cuz of his never-ending winning streak 

acne scarss 😭

due to a bunch of gender dysphoria one day in anticipation of his school’s picture day, he went crazy at his long hair with his scissors and ended up ruining his picture 

this was in year 4 (3rd grade) the year the 3 became friends. harry & hermione pulled a pines twins move and also gave themselves crazy chops so ron wouldn’t be left out 

hermione j granger 

autistic (high functioning)

black mixed girl (her mother’s black, her father’s white)

her favorite color is blue

before hogwarts she was really lonely 😭 she wasn’t exactly bullied but people avoided her.. her parents stacked her with after school activities to try and get her to socialize more 

bc of that, she actually used to know how to do ballet 

*i don’t feel strongly about whatever sexuality people hc her as. 

if she was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

has had braces since year 6 (5th grade), INCLUDING the rubber bands

BIG documentary enthusiast

she’d be in the debate club, and be in student council 

i know for a fact she would major in political science when she goes to college !!

she used to bake with her parents but stopped when she got to secondary school (highschool) but ron made her find her spark to start doing it again

hermione & her parents moved in her year 4 (3rd grade), and hermione didn’t rlly have much friends in her old school 

i havent read or watched hunger games yet but i feel like she would be a big fan…

she’d also love philosophy & historical fiction 

she’d be the kind to love wearing nightwear (i bet ron would love it too 🤔🤔joking sorry😇)

ginny weasley

luna lovegood

pansexual or lesbian or aroace

at least SOMEWHAT queer 😒

had a slight crush on ron at some point, although she couldn’t tell whether it was platonic, sexual, or romantic, but it wasn’t rlly intense

if she was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

i feel like she would be in a photography club and part of the yearbook club. or she would work on some type of newspaper or blog 

seamus finnigan

gay. comphet gay boy who struggled with internalized homophobia

dean was his awakening but he pushed that away for a while until 6th year

dean thomas 

bisexual 

didn’t rlly have a realization he just always knew 

he had small feelings for seamus first but assumed he was homophobic and/or straight and just ignored it, and sort of did ginny’s tactic, and just dated other ppl

parvati patil

bisexual + used to think she was aromantic

always had feelings for lavender but she thought it was unrequited, and thought lavender was straight 

if she was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

obsessed with astrology & fashion

way less male-centered than lavender 

lavender brown 

comphet lesbian who struggled with internalized homophobia.

fixated on boys to ignore her never-ending crush on parvati 

she realized she couldn’t keep lying to herself in 6th year when even ron couldn’t lie about his true feeling since his sleep. why should she??

i feel like after that, she sort of had an ego death in seventh year and the summer beforehand 

black girl with albinism !!!

i refuse to believe she died in the last book. she came out with werewolf scars & changed similar to bill weasley, & parvati took care of her, and they lived happily ever after 

if she was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

obsessed with astrology & fashion 

fails the Bechdel test every 2 seconds (pre-self-acceptance) 

cries over romcoms 

fred & george weasley 

george is quieter of the 2 weasley twins

fred’s the bigger speaker/presenter, george’s the bigger thinker

the difference is slight but still noticeable 

charlie weasley

asexual 

padma patil 

nerdier of the 2 patil twins 

she wears glasses (yes ik so cliche I DONT CARE)

if she was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

she would be really interested in coding & computer science

she’d also be in the chess club, and the debate club 

cho chang 

twilight sparkle girl

this is somebody else’s idea, but somebody’s caption of a cho chang edit was labeled “chunmei chang” instead, can we just collectively call her an actual chinese name instead of accepting jkr’s nonsense .. 

*i don’t feel rlly strong about her sexuality or gender identity 

if she was in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?

i really feel like she would be a tennis girl 

her and cedric foreverrr

more notes 

ginny & ron are each other’s favorite weasley siblings, even if they don’t admit it

dean fell first, seamus fell harder

based on these hcs i think 6th year had the most arguments 😭😭 how you gonna have romione, parvender, and deamus angst all in the same year?? meanwhile harry & ginny are frolicking away 😒

hermione & harry are literally the older sister & younger brother dynamic 😭 hermione is exactly how i would act if my younger brother was marked down for death for 17 years 

ron & hermione jokingly call harry “harold” whenever he’s being a pain 

more notes on the “if they were in a modern au and/or a nobody-dies-au..?”

i guess this is specific to my au but harry, hermione, and ron would’ve been best friends since year 4 (3rd grade)

the golden trio would have weekly sleepovers, taking turns on which house to stay over at, and taking turns on who picks the movie. ginny joins them sometimes 

the grangers, potters, & weasleys are all really close 🤗🤗 i’d like to imagine the families all go on vacations together 

there’s sooo many things the trio could’ve dressed as for halloween 😭😭 the chipmunks, minions, the aristocats!! 

ginny & harry play guitar together sometimes, not in front of crowds just when they hang together 

other notes..

here are some ships i really like so u might also understand the reasoning behind these 

romione !!! (on top forever)

ronarry !!!

parvender !!!

deamus !!

linny !!

hinny

nuna

so ALSO according to these hcs technically ron weasley is addicted to the chocolate touch 🥹🥹 love a black woman form infinity to infinityyyyy

ron pulls all the hos… (harry, hermione, luna, lavender)

i could see a romione-jily parallel way better than that.

"Ill take care of you" // "its rotten work" // "Not to me, not if its you"

vs Deamus

"Ill take care of you" // "its rotten work" It sure as hell is but you're clearly not going to do it yourself"

My interpretations of the golden era Gryffindors as well as some Finnigan ocs for my Deamus fic :)

First row: Seamus, Dean, and Parvati

Second row: Lavender, Harry, and Ron

Third row: Hermione, Neville, and Seamus’ Mum

Fourth row: Seamus’ cousin Holly, Seamus’ grandfather, Seamus’ cousin Christine.

Hello friend, it's good to hear from you!

This is from an upcoming chapter in my Parvati/Lavender complication:

“Guess what, babe?” Lavender asked, her voice husky. She joined Parvati in the kitchen while Parvati was at the sink, cleaning the dishes from their dinner. 

“What?” Parvati asked, not turning around. Lavender took the opportunity to sidle up against her, pressing against her back. She felt Parvati’s breath stutter as she slid her hands down her back and over her arse. 

“I made you something,” Lavender purred in her ear.

“You did?”

“Mmmm-hmmm,” Lavender hummed, kissing the side of her neck. 

Parvati turned slowly to face her, her dark eyes bright. “Show me?”

Lavender took her hand and led her into the bedroom. She picked up a garment from the back  of her desk chair and handed it to Parvati, who looked at it and raised her eyebrow.
