Subject: Ginny touched by Vmort - My niece agrees

"I thought I had seen my nephew and niece fight about EVERYTHING. 
My Nephew (Who has a Slytherin banner on his wall) says Hermione will 
end up with (BARF) Draco and join him in the dark side."

Me:

I still can't get over how many different types of SHIPS there are out there!  It just proves how people interpret things very differently because of different backgrounds and cultures.  Go figure!

Uncmark:

"My niece is of the Hermione/Ron Harry/Ginny camp and also thinks 
(like me) that Ginny will grow into the perfect match for an Older 
Harry. I see Harry still fawning over Cho in Book 5, but her pushing 
him away because A) She liked Cedric and on some level blames Harry, 
and B) The thought of Voldemort terrifies her."

Moi:

Me too!  Except, I still like the CONNIVING CHICK'S REVENGE theory that Cho will become ever-so-evil <evil grin>.  

"I'd like to see Ginny grow a bit more along with the other supporting 
characters (Neville, Seamus, Colin Creevy)"

Me:

I think that Ginny is an Ace JKR is holding up her sleeve. She has kept Ginny hidden and very much in the background in the last two books for some reason -- Very JKR-ish of her, I might say.  My theory is that this has something to do with her connection to Voldemort through Riddle's diary, and her life-debt to Harry.  How those two things play out, I don't know.  I've read in fan-fics that Ginny has nightmares similar to Harry's, in that they can see what is happening now, or what will happen when Voldy is feeling particularly murderous or angry.  Maybe Ginny can speak parseltongue and has enough of Voldy in her that has changed her, like it has Harry.  True, Harry gained his bits o'Voldy through a most powerful curse.  But, Ginny was possessed by the memory of a bright, powerful and evil 16 yr. old for the better part of the year, at least from Halloween until the end of the school year.  This might come into play in one of the next books.  

Now, with GInny's life debt...didn't Dumbledore say this is magic at its deepest and most powerful (in reference to Harry sparing Peter's life, hence Peter is indebted to Harry)?  Doesn't this create a bond between the life-saver and the person saved?  
IMO, when a person is saved, they are compelled to help their "saver" when in their presence and their safety/life is being threatened.  That works with Snape.  In PS/SS, perhaps he was compelled to do the counter-curse to keep Harry from falling off his broom, rather than feeling duty to Harry because of Snape's debt to James.  Maybe the person can't help but try to save their "saver's" life, and that's how the magic works.  It sure explains Snape trying to save Harry even though he obviously hates him.  He couldn't help himself.  But this is just a pet theory of mine.  No doubt it's been talked about before, I know, but let me pretend that I had at least one original thought....  

Okay, I'll poke a hole in my own theory...when has Ginny ever shown any effort to save Harry when his life was in danger, after the events of COS?  Canon doesn't tell us.  Now, either she hasn't, and my "magically compelled to save their life" theory isn't any good, OR she was trying to save his life and her efforts have gone unnoticed.  OR...maybe the person is compelled when all others who have a life-debt to that person are not present or their powers are incapacitated.  We don't even know if she's had the chance to feel compelled to save Harry...Snape's always been there.  It's late and I'm not making any more sense....
