Pairings I like:
Harry/Parvati
Harry/Padma
Harry/Blaise(female)
Harry/Narcissa
Harry/Cho
well basicaly most girls with Harry
James/Lily
Remus/Bellatrix: I think that it is an interesting possibility
Remus/Narcissa: can't really explain it but I do
Ron/Hermione

Pairings I hate:
Harry/Lily(Just plain sick and so wrong)
Lily/anyone but James(personally I just cannot see her with anyone but James.)
Harry/Hermione(I don't hate her just the idea of her with Harry and I wouldn't be surprised if she went with an authority figure over Harry)
Harry/Ginny(something about her just doesn't sit right with me)
Harry/Luna(while I think she would help him alot I just don't think that she would help him more as a friend)
Any form of slash that involves Harry

A peeve of mine is any story that claims that James Potter is not Harry's real father. That completly goes against all froms of the cannon and everything that Harry has been told or shown. I should smack you upside your head with a glass bottle if you say that Snape is Harry's father and that Lily cheated on James!
Now I don't have a problem with time travel or people changing the stories if different things happened but just the simple fact that Harry's parents are who they are and that is what helps to shape who he is in the end.

Author Challenge:

Another idea that I have is actually a fourth year fic starting from the point where Cho gives Harry his quill that he dropped, which occurred before the first task. Now the idea is that instead of having Cho just leave Harry starts talking to her as he walks her to her class as an apology. As they get to talking she tells him more about the tournament and she talks about how at the yule ball it is tradition for the champions and their partners to start the first dance. At these words Harry goes beat red and stops, which Cho notices. I want it to be a Harry/Cho fic, sorry to any Cho/Cedric shippers I just never saw that lasting only because he would have been out of school not long into any relationship and Cho doesn't know how to sneak out of the castle.

I got this idea from one of Silveraegis' fics. A link to the the author is under my favorite author's. Anyways the idea for this fic is that James is married to both Lily, and Narcissa Black. The Narcissa Black marriage was arranged and James couldn't break it to leave her to Lucius Malfoy but he still loved Lily obviously. Now he found an old law that would allow a head of an old pureblood family to have two wives but no one had used it in over two centuries. So James used this so he could marry the woman he loved and fufill the contract. Afterwards though the ministry passed a law so that it would not be able to occur again for any reason, but only in certain circumstances. Now all three must survive and Harry is still the boy-who-lived yet Dumbledore does not know about this because it was James' parents who died protecting Harry on that fatefull night. Harry should not be spoiled or treated any differently then any of his other siblings. Through a ritual from the goblins that only the goblins can perform all of the Potter children, whether given birth to by either Lily or Narcissa(Lily must be the one that gave birth to Harry though) each child has a blood relation to all three parents. Harry will not know the Weasley family before school as first off they run in different social circles and there is a big age difference between Arthur and Molly and Harry's parents, which I see alot of authors ignore because it doesn't suit their own needs. Now there are several things that could be done with this and I hope that someone will take up this challenge of mine.
