What are the rare pairs?
We are aware that rare pairings are hard to define, especially with the growing popularity of former rare pairings, however we have done our best to decide which pairings are too popular for this fest. We have done this on the basis of what pairings have specific active fests or communities that hold challenges related to them on LJ. We apologize if you do not agree with these pairings, however, for this challenge we have decided on these banned pairings:

Hermione/Ron
Hermione/Harry
Hermione/Draco
Hermione/Snape
Hermione/Ginny
Hermione/Lucius

Harry/Draco
Harry/Snape
Harry/Ron
Harry/Ginny
Harry/Scorpius
Harry/Pansy

Draco/Snape
Draco/Ginny

Snape/Lily
Snape/Remus
Snape/Luna (they have a fest)

Remus/Tonks
Remus/Sirius

Albus Severus/Scorpius

Rose/Scorpius

Lucius/Narcissa

James I/Lily I

Teddy/James II

Snape/Harry/Draco


Notes: • If you would like to appeal for one of the pairings, the mods would be happy to discuss it with you. However, we do believe that if said pairing already has a fest on Livejournal, we do not consider it a rare pairing for this specific fest.

• If you believe a pairing should be on this list, the mods would also be willing to discuss that with you.

• Please don't be afraid to approach us and discuss. We are very nice and we're always willing to talk about it.

• Please be aware that we can't make everyone happy, but we will try our best. As we said, it's very hard to define a rare pairing.

• As soon as the prompting post has been posted, this list will no longer be edited.

There are actually two communities for Draco/Pansy, draco_pansy and dransy. There is also dmpp_ldws for the Draco/Pansy LDWS challenge. All these comms are not terribly big or active but by no means dead. As fun as that pairing can be, I doubt it classifies as rare.
