Oi! I think you're right that something about Hagrid Sr. kindness triggering 
something in Fridwulfa. I think that maybe he just wasn't mean to her whereas 
everyone had been, and so they got together. The sheer logistics of them *doing 
it* sort of frighten me though! I mean - does Hagrid Sr. have something in his 
pants that will satisfy a giant? Yikes! That would frighten me! Maybe that's why 
he didn't hook up with a human? hehehe
