Hubrina

Hubrina is the het ship between Hubie and Marina from the The Pebble and the Penguin fandom.

Canon
Hubie and Marina implied they have met each other before. However, they haven’t interacted with each other since then. That is, until Hubie loses his balance, slid off of a hill, and bumped into Marina. Marina didn't lose her cool with Hubie after he unintentionally bumped into her, causing her to fall onto pile of snow chest first. She quickly forgave him and acted patient and understanding to Hubie.

Later that night, Hubie took Marina to his special place in the Rookery under the moonlight. He declared his feelings to Marina via a heartfelt song that melts her heart. Lucky for Hubie, Marina did not believe his wonders were nonsense and nonetheless couldn't care less if Hubie is a bit wacky.

Not to long after Hubie defeated Drake on the night before the Full Moon Mating Ceremony, Hubie proposed to Marina. In spite of not having an obligatory pebble, Marina gladly accepted Hubie's proposal and the two officially became mates.

Afterwards, Hubie gave his pebble to Marina as his gift for her. Marina tells Hubie she loves the pebble, but loves him even more. The two share a kiss, much to the other penguins' approval. In the epilogue, Hubie and Marina become parents to eight chicks.

Hubie and Marina's Chicks
Hubie and Marina's unnamed children. Hubie and Marina have eight chicks overall, five sons and three daughters. Not much is known about Hubie and Marina’s chicks, but they inherit both of their parents' physical features.
