The dreams about being a little girl weren't as bad as the other dreams, where she and Lily were one, running endlessly lost through a hall of mirrors. She'd have been better off with one of the mirrors here, polished brass and octiron without a piece of glass to shatter. What Lily might have done with octiron mirrors was unthinkable.

Granny lit her oil lap, moving slowly with creaking bones, and addressed at her dim image in the mirror.

"I wasn't goin' to let you win, but I'd rather we'd both been not-losers together."

Hello! I loved the idea of this comm, so I combed my favourites for great female-character-centric fics.

Fandom: Harry Potter

Ginny-centric fics, more or less categorized because I’m obsessive that way XD. I hope you don’t mind all of these are Harry/Ginny, since it’s my OTP (and most of what I read XD). All One-shots unless stated.

( Two really old fics that stay amazing )

( Two angsty ficlets )

( Two adventure/mystery fics )

( Three humour/crack fics (I'm not responsible of) )

( Four DH Missing Moments (chronologically because see above) )

Fics about other HP female characters:

( McGonagall fic and Hedwig fic )

Other fandoms:

Harry Potter/Discworld crossover

Professional duties by

owlyscribblings | PG
Susan Sto Helit has a job to do. [Susan, McGonagall, Harry]
Characters: Susan, McGonagall, Harry [genfic]
Genre: Jossed AU, drama
Rec: Short and awesome. Also slightly Jossed.

Danny Phantom

Girl Power by Nylah-Fae | PG
"She kept expecting him to walk right in, smiling that goofy smile of his, act like nothing happened, like he hadn't scared her witless with his disappearing act."

Characters: Sam Manson, Valerie Gray
Ship: Danny/Sam
Genre: action/adventure
Rec: Written as a companion to a fanart that’s no longer there, an action and adventure fic with a side of character study and some intriguing concepts.

Spider-Man (movie!verse)

Just a Face On a Train by katheryne | PG
After rescuing a train from Doc Ock's attack, Peter Parker found himself unmasked and indebted to those he had just saved. 4 months later, a train passenger again crosses paths with the young hero. Based on events from SpiderMan 2.

Characters: OC, Peter Parker [genfic]
Length: 5 chapters, complete
Genre: character study, adventure
Rec: This is a remarkable story in that the main character is an OFC, one of the passengers on the train Spider-man saved. A wonderful outsider-POV look at Peter, and proof that OC stories don’t mean Mary Sue.

Current Mood: tired

Others have been sharing their women-and-girl-centric works, so I thought I'd post mine here as well.

Bisclavret - Marie de France: The Lai of Bisclavret's Wife. Constance (Bisclavret's Wife). The wife of the werewolf baron from Brittany was many things: strong, clever, valiant. Faithless? No. Written for Yuletide 2010.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Birthday Wish. Dawn Summers. Dawn has good reason to hate both Buffy's birthdays and her own. Set pre-'Older and Far Away.' Written for a Sunday100 challenge.

The Girl Without Hands. Dawn Summers. Dawn tries to cope with the expectations of the Scoobies, the Buffybot and nightmares the summer after Buffy's death. Written for vanilla_tiger's Grimm Title Challenge.

Hansel and Gretel. Willow Rosenberg. Willow deals with both heartbreak and lack of emotion after the events of "Gingerbread." Written for vanilla_tiger's Grimm Title Challenge.

Sunnydale-Side Up. Buffy Summers. Buffy muses about Halloween, Sunnydale and her life.

Discworld: Love Like a Djelibeybian. Ptraci. Ptraci doesn't mind a political marriage for the sake of Djelibeybi's succession, but she doesn't understand why everyone seems to balk at the idea of the queen taking handmaidens to bed; after all, no one minded the *king* doing it, and she's doing the same job. Written for LGBT Fest 2009.

Doctor Who and Related Fandoms: Detour. Donna Noble. Post-The End of Time. Donna's conscious mind has forgotten everything. If she's to survive, her subconscious has to find ways for her to remember. Written for the Awesome Ladies Ficathon 2010.

The Vampires of Venezuela. Rosanna Calvierri. The vampires of Venice did not die. Rosanna Calvierri was too determined to allow the race of Saturnynians--now reduced to herself and her children--to perish simply because of the Doctor. Written for Femgenficathon 2010.

The Dresden Files (bookverse): A Family in Five Acts. The Archive (Ivy). Over the years, Ivy acquires three fathers.

A Friend of Summer. Aurora (Lady of Summer/Elaine Mallory. How this will alter her, Elaine can't say. She only knows that it will. No one goes into Faerie--or leaves it--unchanged.

Harry Potter: A Fine and Private Place. Tonks/Remus Lupin. When Tonks thinks about it, she realizes how much is wrong. Written for the Doomed Ships Challenge.

In Just-Spring. Lily Evans. Lily wants nothing to do with James Potter OR his unimaginative presents. Sirius, Remus and Peter, posing as a not-so-secret admirer, try to convince her to do otherwise. Pure fluff.

Didn't have as much time to write as I wanted, so I can only offer these two sorta-drabbles and must leave the other three half-done ones for another day.

First offering: River, spoilers if you know enough to sift through the babble. ( Some Assembly Required )

Second offering: Granny Weatherwax, for the prompt "The trouble with being the best is always having to BE the best. Although some manage better than others". ( Competition )
