---“Not that this great broom will in any way give Harry an unearned advantage over any other Seeker, of course. Our brooms, like our choices, simply show who we are

... and Ginny giggles. I guess there’s our Big Clue to the firecracker within.”

BITCH

Hee. :-)

Ginny had it easy. No pressure, she could giggle and do what she liked in the first five books, knowing that she was going to be placed in the 'love interest who is AWESOMELY AWESOME befitting the hero' slot regardless of anything she might say or do (or even despite it).

Save your pity for our Hermione, who slogged away for seven hard years helping and protecting Harry. :-(

Eh, if I was a Hermione fan, I'd be relieved she didn't suffer the hell of being married to Harry.
Sure, Ron's a loser in a lot of ways, but Hermione can control him, which is all she ever really wanted, anyway.

Given the way Quidditch is scored, I wouldn't be surprised if Harry could be the best Seeker ever without setting foot on the field all 7th year! Aren't we told that while Charlie Weasley had the best record Slytherin was still managing to be champion for all those years? (Gryffindor players seem to have an surprising record for churning out professionals. Charlie, Oliver, Ginny and therefore Harry all seem to be professional level.)

Since there are 13 professional teams for such a small population, and players can only last so many years I bet all Houses churn out quite a few professional players. Makes one wonder how many Ministry workers are former Quidditch players. Because I can't see how you get enough people to both play Quidditch and do the work.
