Yes, yes, yes Dropaad (pauses to nod head some more and calm down). I 
liked Ginny's handling the situation as well. As Harry was shouting 
and shooting sparks everywhere, everyone else in the room - well 
Hermione and Ron - were looking at the floor worried or frightened or 
whatever and Ginny just looks straight at Harry saying (sth. 
like) "Well, you have been hiding and you just could've asked me..." 
and takes all the wind out of Harry's (angry) sales. She just acted 
very maturely and (sort of) courageously, meaning she wasn't scared 
of Harry's emotional outburst.
