Fabranger 

A portmanteau of the names 'Fabray' and 'Granger'.

Referring to the romantic relationship between one Quinn Fabray (blonde ex-ex-cheerleader from the hugely popular television series Glee) and Hermione Granger (the smartest witch of her age from the Harry Potter book/film series). Characters from two separate fictional universes brought together through fan-fiction, gifs, manips etc.
Fabranger;

Hey, do you ship faberry?

Meh - fabranger IS WHERE IT'S AT!

Look, I'm all for Quinn being a pressed lemon, but isn't a Glee/Harry Potter crossover with two established straight characters in a relationship a tad far-fetched?
