Part four of my Ginmione series, The Veela Chain Reaction, is underway! This story started the summer of the Quidditch World Cup before Ginny and Hermione's 3rd and 4th years at Hogwarts and is now at 285k words and Ginny and Hermione are beginning heir 6th and 7th years at Hogwarts. If you've been reading this story since the beginning when it was one long fic (I've since re-posted it as a multi-part series) we've finally made it to the point where readers are getting brand new content! I try to post new chapters once a week, but if I miss I typically communicate it ahead of time. If you're looking for a femslash story from the Harry Potter universe, or a Hermione/Ginny story specifically, give it a shot!

Part summaries (and spoilers) below!
Part One Summary: After experiencing the Veela mascots at the 422nd Quidditch World Cup, Ginny Weasley realizes she fancies girls. How will this affect her third year at Hogwarts and her new friendship with Hermione Granger, her older brother's best friend who she's always admired from afar?
Part Two Summary: After discovering that Hermione had fancied her in secret for nearly a year, it's now Ginny's turn to fancy her from afar. Will she try to break up or wait out Hermione and her long distance girlfriend Juliette, start things back up with Demelza, find someone new, or just focus on making the Gryffindor Quidditch team during her fourth year at Hogwarts? As for Hermione, how will she cope now that Juliette is back at Beauxbatons, leaving her to fight her resurfacing feelings for Ginny alone?
Part Three Summary: After a tumultuous two years of miscommunications and unfortunate assumptions, Ginny and Hermione are finally together. How will they navigate their fifth and sixth years at Hogwarts? Will their relationship grow or falter when they find themselves to be incredibly busy: Ginny with her first season of Quidditch as a starting Chaser for Gryffindor and her O.W.L.s, Hermione with her Prefect duties and the requirements of being a new member of the Slug Club. Will they find the time to enjoy their new relationship now that they've finally gotten together?
Part Four Summary: Pressure is mounting as Hermione heads into her final year at Hogwarts and Ginny begins her professional Quidditch recruitment during her sixth year. Hermione is increasingly stressed by the demands and expectations brought on by not only those around her, but her own self as well. Ginny finds her popularity rising as scouts begin to notice her, leading to a few girls making eyes at her regardless of her widely known relationship with Hermione. As they navigate the year and look ahead to what their futures hold, can they find a path that truly works for both of them? Can they hang on to the relationship they've both worked so hard to cultivate?

Hermione/Draco
E, 153k

The Makings of Marginally Better (ao3) - larkfoul
Cedric/Harry, Hermione/Theodore
T, 117k
Summary: When Hermione Granger rewinds time from the Battle of Hogwarts to the start of Fourth Year, her short-term goal is simple: make things marginally better. Keep Harry alive. Keep Cedric alive. Maybe prevent Ron from becoming a jealous prat.
Except âsimpleâ doesnât account for Theodore Nottâa sharp-eyed Seer with a habit of showing up exactly when he shouldnâtâwho seems determined to worm his way into Hermioneâs plans⊠and maybe her heart.
Meanwhile, Harry is contending with being thrown into Death Tournament 1994 with an unhappy wand. Somethingâs definitely off with Hermioneâbut itâs hard to focus on that when Cedric Diggory is absurdly handsome, devastatingly kind, and, for some reason, seems to actually like Harry.
The graveyard is inevitableâbut the outcome isn't.

Ginny could not help herself; she burst out laughing. She didn't know what was more absurd. The way Malfoy joked about his own death or the fact that he had watched muggle TV. Muggle news even.
"You're a bloody lunatic!" she snorted, and Malfoy's smile widened.
"Darling," he said in a posh accent. "We're all bloody lunatics, that's why we're here in the first place." He started to stand up. "Now that you're here, that goes for you too." He began walking away from her, slowly tilting his head as he spoke over his shoulder.
