Vivamus:
> I look for her to be revealed as a Parselmouth or something similar at some point in the future. I think you are revealing a personal bias, though, when you say that you "pray her role isn't HP's LI".  

God, I may destroy my books if Ginny ends up a parseltongue. I think 
Jk couldn't do anything else that would make me hate the whole story 
more than that. I think what'll happen is Voldemort's transformation 
wasn't completed and he's going to need whatever's trapped in Ginny 
in order to finish it. some piece of him that was missing, but 
present in the diaries essence.

I freely admit that I don't like Ginny as Harry's LI. based on Book 
five shes already starting to become as domineering as her mother 
and the last thing I want for my favorite character is to end up as 
henpecked and brow beaten as Arthur Weasley.  Molly has him on leash 
so tight its pathetic. that'll be what happens if Harry ends up with 
Ginny IMO. 

Vivamus: 
> JKR can do whatever she wants, but Ginny has certainly been set up from book 1 as a potential love interest for Harry. It might be yet another red herring on JKR's part, but it would be a *lot* more subtle than her others, and it doesn't seem likely at all to me.
  
I think that Harry's LI will be someone that Jk hasn't setup yet. 
I'm guessing Susan Bones for no apparent reason other than thats 
what my instincts say.  I doubt it'll be Ginny because so Harry 
hasn't exhibited any attraction to her. Hell we saw Cho coming from 
three books away. No such animal with interactions between Ginny.

Vivamus: 
> As to the sneaking out the brooms and flying them, I grew up in a large family, and I can tell you from personal experience, that kids get away with far more things like that in big families than in small ones, and the farther down the chain of siblings a child is, the better s/he is likely to be at avoiding being caught.  

You could be right about that. I grew up in a small family where my 
sister and I were far enough apart in age that we both got our 
parents undivided attention. but my mom wasn't an overprotective 
witch either. I can't believe there weren't charms on the doors or 
windows letting molly and arthur know when their kids were out of 
bed. for Merlins sake, there are wards at Hogwarts to make sure boys 
don't visit the girls' dorms. You're telling me that pureblooded 
parents can't whistle up an alarm charm strong enough to foil a six 
year old. Please. I think this is just another example of JK 
writing something without thinking through its logical ramifications 
first.

Vivamus:
> Ginny, a traitor?   Yuck!

It would be the greatest surprise since Luke I am your father in 
Empire. I think it would be great. Plus the young kids need a 
traitor of their very own and Neville is way too obvious.
 
> Vivamus, who shudders to remember some of the things he did before the age of six (and didn't get caught)

I didn't hit my stride until twelve, but between the fires, cops, 
and Catholic schoolgirls I caught up fast.

*sigh* sometimes I miss my childhood.

Ellyddan:
> Here I have to disagree, I'm actually a bit
disgruntled about the sudden reappearance of Ginny
Weasley in Book Five. She doesn't appear of any
interest besides a few asides in POA and GOF and
suddenly she's almost a super-Ginny in OOTP. She can
fly, she can cast excellent hexes at naughty Malfoys
and has finally become a bit more of a firecracker.
Not that I wouldn't expect a Weasley sister to have
all these traits but to just suddenly develop them. I
find it all too convenient. I think if Ginny was a
parselmouth we would have had some sort of indication
before (or perhaps I just demand it myself.)

Where were you when I posted this very arguement four days ago? I 
could have used the backup from all these Ginny-lovers.

Ellyddan:
> Yes I doubt this will happen. She has been duped
before I doubt you can pull the wool over her eyes a
second time now. Again her past experience makes her
a powerful ally to Harry now. I think Ginny will be a
traitor only in darkfic fandom. Now Percy on the
other hand...

Naw, Percy is a plant for DD. I'm telling you watch out for Ginny. 
she's a wascally wabbit.

You heard it here first folks. Susan Bones, HP love interest and 
Ginny!wormtail. Mark your calenders.
