   Summary

   People expect a lot from Harry Potter, but what are expectations worth when the mere act of existing feels wrong?
   People expect a lot from Ginny Weasley, but she can't decide what's worse: living up to expectations or failing to.

   Or

   The paths they would have taken in a world after Riddle.

   *JK Rowling is a fascistic, cruel, and unrepentant transphobic bully. Do not engage with my work if you have any interest in defending a person doing active harm to a marginalised group. This fic and its comment section are a safe space for trans folks, and I urge anyone engaging with this world and its characters to do so kindly and compassionately, without giving any money to that horrific person.*
