Dirigible Plum
Art Rec January 4, 2023 Creator: mywitch Rating: K+/PG Summary: It’s 1946, and the Wizarding world is emerging from the shadow of Prussia.

McGonagall
Art Rec January 4, 2023 Creator: Denver Balboboco Rating: K/G Summary: “This match has been cancelled.” Characters: Minerva McGonagall Why You Should Check It Out: I admit it: I’m a sucker for a piece that can meld Movie Minerva (Maggie Smith) with a more canon-compliant version, and this piece does that beautifully.

Rejoicing (in the Greenhouse)
Art Rec January 4, 2023 Creator: sigune Rating: K/G Warning(s): ike, absolutely NONE. I mean, the plants are a bit naughty, but not that naughty. Or maybe a pollen warning, to be on the safe side?

Ghosts
Art Rec December 29, 2022 Creator: LadyMothwing Rating: K/G Characters: Minerva McGonagall Pairings: Summary: Minerva and Severus reach out to their lost loved ones, who are idealized in beautiful, dreamy colors.

Love You Long After You’re Gone, Gone, Gone
Art Rec December 28, 2022 Creator: Kit466 Rating: K/G Summary: She did not marry Elphinstone because she was depressed about Dougal. She did not ‘settle’ for him because she was getting old.

Minerva and Neville
Art Rec December 28, 2022 Creator: Kit466 Rating: K/G Summary: “When Neville became a Professor, he was still super intimidated by Professor McGonagall. Until they went out for staff drinks. The situation allowed them both to loosen up enough to quietly talk about the horrors of what happened in Neville’s 7th year.” Characters: Minerva McGonagall, […]
Minerva McGonagall
Art Rec December 28, 2022 Creator: Veelpo Rating: K/G Summary: Portrait of Minerva McGonagall Characters: Minerva McGonagall Why You Should Check It Out: This is a terrific portrait of Minerva by artist Veelpo.

Minerva’s Life
Art Rec December 28, 2022 Creator: LadyMothwing Rating: K/G Summary: The door swung open at once. A tall, black-haired witch in emerald-green robes stood there.

Characters: Filius Flitwick, Minerva McGonagall Pairing(s): Minerva/Wilhelmina Why You Should Check It Out: So much to love about this, another gem from Minervafest: the way the clever artist doesn’t show us the faces, so we’re free to imagine whatever fits our headcanon […]
