Each day there will be a different post to participate in! Check out Weird Zeal’s list of all the posts! I will probably not be participating in all of them, but I am looking forward to participating in some!
Harry Potter Ships
When I first started reading HP I was 8. Romances were yucky. I grew up with HP and about the same time I started loving romances is when HP started containing romances. It was an awesome and unique experience. Also, I didn’t learn about non-canon ships until years after I read HP. I didn’t know about Ships or Fanfic for a long time. So when I read the books it never occurred to me to want anything other than what J.K. Rowling wrote. So this is going to be a super boring post because I ship the canon.
Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley
Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger
Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour
Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks
Arthur and Molly Weasley
What do you think? I know a lot of people ship Hermione and Harry but I like Hermione and Ron! Who do you ship?
Beautiful post 😍

I tend to go for the canon ships as well! And I definitely prefer Hermione and Ron over Hermione and Harry 😊

Me too! I feel like if Hermione and Harry got together then Ron would be too left out. Harry being the main character isn’t left out when Ron and Hermione get together. If that makes any sense?

I love Harry and Ginny! It was so unexpected, I think that’s why I adore their relationship.

Oh, that makes sense 🙂 I didn’t really think of it that way before but you are right it was kind of unexpected.

I personally don’t like Harry/Hermione but I would agree that Hermione/Ron is maybe not the best fit either. Her intelligence is probably undervalued in that relationship. I like a lot of the slash ships though so who am I to judge. xD

Ahhh I just saw your response! I have no idea how I missed it! Sorry I didn’t respond sooner!
A lot of people don’t like Hermione/Ron but I feel like its an opposites attract thing! I think he does value her knowledge even if he likes to make fun of it!

I like how you included Arthur and Molly – so many times we go for the young love or tragic love and here’s a well established couple who’s just trying to ride all the changes in the world (I’m sure they’ve had to thought “of all the kids in the whole school, Ron had to go befriend the one kid with a mortal enemy?!” More than once.) And somehow manage to keep things in perspective without wallowing in grief.

I agree! They are such great role models in relationship goals! And they get forgotten about so often! Haha I am sure they have thought that but I also feel like they are super proud of Ron too for sticking by Harry even when there is trouble!
