I wrote a fic called 'Boiling Point' for the Draco/Ginny Fic Fest 2024. It is about cooking ;). It won 'Best Kiss'. You can read it here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/57669991

Playful

I imagine this to be an AU, maybe post-Hogwarts? Even Eight Year if it works. But these two keep finding excuses to be near each other and it's all playful and fun and flirty.

Hi! I was wondering are there any other pairings that you would consider for Draco and Harry? What appeals to you about those pairings?

Honestly, the only other person I ship Harry with is Ginny. I'm not likely to read Harry/Ginny fic, but that's a ship I can really imagine being happily ever after in a way that lives on in my head. Meanwhile I will totally read Harry/Snape, Harry/Sirius, or the crossgen ships, but I do not ship them and mostly really just want some nice smut in those corners of the fandom.

But for Draco, I ship Draco/Hermione in a major way. But I'm really afraid of reading fic for them because I'm just kind of assuming the dynamic will be a lot of a) Hermione deciding Ron isn't her intellectual equal and therefore is a bad partner, which is something I cannot stand and makes me almost want to like Ron out of sheer spite, b) Hermione deciding Malfoy is her intellectual equal and therefore a suitable partner, when he's really not; no one is her intellectual equal and that really is okay, c) Hermione deciding Malfoy is really hot and fuckable, or d) Malfoy deciding Hermione's gotten really hot and fuckable because she's smoothing down her hair and wearing fashionable clothes, which I despise viscerally.

Meanwhile all I've ever wanted in my life is Malfoy growing up and being a bit more mature and having some regrets and then meeting Hermione again and absolutely losing his mind for her. Like she is so smart and so talented and so powerful and so honorable and so good that he just worships her. And he's like "well that's very nice; I've turned over a new leaf and can respect a Muggleborn; I am an improved member of society," except his dick keeps being inconvenient about it.

And slowly Malfoy realizes that Hermione with her bushy hair and bad clothes is perhaps the hottest woman on earth. And it really, really sucks because Hermione is infinitely kind to him and the only person in this new society who has ever really given former Death Eaters, and also him specifically, a second chance. And she's so warm to him and generous and good and laughs at his little jokes. And also she would never be romantically interested in him in like. Ever.

She's literally never thought of him that way, not even once. She mostly pities him and kind of thinks he's a funny little guy. And Harry is like WTF he called you slurs and you were tortured in his house, and she's like, "We must move beyond our past, Harry," and she really does, but it literally never occurs to her that Malfoy is a man. He's a human being who deserves a chance. And at some point maybe someone even points out that Malfoy is a man that may have some kind of romantic or sexual desires in this world, like maybe they think Malfoy's a hunk and wonder who he might be dating, and Hermione is a startled by this because she's literally never considered it and then goes right back to not considering it, she has so little interest.

This is really the fic that I want to read. Like Draco making heart eyes for hundreds of pages and meanwhile Hermione pioneers space travel and the cure for cancer. BUT I would also be fine if eventually Hermione did notice him and return his affection, but only after like, a RIDICULOUS amount of him pining while she is so completely oblivious that she makes Wei Wuxian look super aware.

Anyway, that's my other main Draco ship, though I quite like Draco/Ginny too. I'm not sold on a particular ship dynamic, though I somehow doubt fic about them is really focused on the shared trauma of Voldemort befriending them and using them and threatening them and throwing them away, which is what I would really be into for them. I also just think they're kind of hot, I guess, though honestly most Ginny pairings are hot because she's hot.

I'll read some crossgen stuff and I'd possibly read like, idk, Draco/Lupin or Draco/Neville and like it, but I think my heart is really set on Draco/Harry or Draco/Hermione, even if I'll never read the latter.

(not my fic, fic REC, author: Anayashe)

"Git." The tip of her nose brushed against his. "My git."

"Yours," he agreed as he raised his head to place a quick but firm kiss on her lips.

Excerpt From Wilfully by Anayashe, 32 chapters/ 270k+ words (NOT COMPLETE)

Synopsis: For the life of her, Ginny Weasley did not know how this had happened. She could have blamed the two glasses of expensive champagne, or considered the possibility of being put under the Imperius Curse, but she knew deep down that that was not the case. Somehow, she had knowingly and wilfully ended up here. Shit.

I absolutely completely loved this beautiful Harry Potter Edit of Drinny's ship of the characters Draco Malfoy and Ginny Weasley together but above all because I really love how in the Draco and Ginny are flying together on a broom but above all because I love how Ginny has green clothes as if she were Slytherin but above all because it gives me tenderness to imagine Draco and Ginny sneaking out of Hogwarts after the curfew to be able to fly together so that we can spend time together and without having problems with the other students and I also like to imagine both having a date together and that they have to practice Quidditch together but above all because I really would have loved to see them together during the Harry Potter movie as a couple in every possible way... the truth

By the way, these beautiful fanart of them are not mine and the credits are not for me, but I will let you know that right here I am going to leave you the link of the real creator on Tumblr.

Dirty Blood Dynasties - Chapter 38 (Drinny & Theomione) - English Version

Ginny - Draco Chapter 38: Ignited

Links: FFN - A03 - Music Playlist

English Version

AU. The British wizarding community has been irrevocably shaped by the dark legacy of Lord Voldemort and his fanatical quest for blood purity. In the wake of Voldemort’s death, thirteen ruling dynasties have taken up the reins, zealously guarding the traditions and tenets of a society that’s both rigidly conservative and caste-divided.

The humdrum life of Ginny Weasley, a young Blood Traitor, is turned upside down when she crosses paths with Draco Malfoy, scion of one of these sacred dynasties. As their disparate worlds collide, her core beliefs are thrown into turmoil, set against a backdrop of political unrest.
