I really feel that Hannah is an under utilised character in fan fiction. Sure she backs down from her defence of him in second year and ends up wearing a badge in fourth, but both of these essentially boil down to the fact that she is a Hufflepuff and not a Gryffindor - she isn’t brave, and getting along with (showing loyalty to) her housemates is massively important to her. The latter however can easily be transferred to Harry by a romantic attachment overriding the House loyalty, as my first entry in this category does.

This one is a really interesting story in many ways despite a few irritating flaws. I dislike the relationship that Harry has with Hermione and, to a lesser extent, [Ginny]. I think that his relationship with Hermione is in particular too romantically inclined, particularly in the earlier chapters. I think the whole crucifixion scene is overboard; and lastly the obvious solution to the marriage contract it uses is breach of contract on the [Patil]’s side. I am unsure why the author did not go that route. These things aside, the story is excellent, with some really strong ideas.

This is a really short one shot, but it had much potential to be developed into a longer story. Like many of this author’s stories, it focuses on how important a relationship with the right girl would be for Harry. This one features a view of Hannah that lets the reader easily see her growth from the girl we seen in second year to the girl who we are told (semi-apocryphally) takes over the Leaky Cauldron.

Another one shot, the pairing is very much in the background here. I almost included this in responsible adults instead.
