Actually, it's not nearly as sophisticated (or even as important to me) as the title suggests. But a couple of nights ago [livejournal.com profile] lizbee and I were chatting about HP in general and my latest fic in particular, and these thoughts just sort of crystallized...

Here's my basic premise. )

R/H is cute, but dull. )

H/H is like a soap opera. )

H/G started out with a lot of puppy fat, but it's got good bones. )

So yes, I've come to recognize that if I have a ship at all, it's H/G. And I'd welcome some recs for mature, thoughtful H/G fics written post-OotP, if there are any out there (I'm sure there must be, by now). Where are the H/G fics being archived these days (besides the general archives like FA and FF.net, I mean), anyway?
Voldemort is gone, but Harry will never be the same again... )

This post is also a good chance to show off my new grown-up Ginny icon, which I'm very pleased with. I have no idea who the model is, but she really does look astoundingly like my mental image of Ginny...
But I have actually written an HP fic that does not involve Snape.* Even wilder and wackier (for me, anyway), none of the major characters are over the age of seventeen.

In fact, it's a Harry fic. With Ron and Hermione, and lots of Ginny. It's fairly short -- just 40K -- and I've put [livejournal.com profile] lydaclunas on it for a beta, but I could still use one or two more people with a good eye for characterization and dialogue, and/or the ability to pick nits with grammar and style as needed, to help me out with the final polishing. Any takers?

*Well, he gets a mention. But he doesn't appear on stage, nor does he directly influence the plot.
...because [livejournal.com profile] seviet's drawings are gorgeous and I love them. But oh my word, this is the most amazing picture of Harry and Ginny I've ever seen. Not only because it's beautifully done in its own right, but because it comes so close to my idea of how they might, or should, look post-canon. [livejournal.com profile] friede, how do you do that?
