Harry/Ginny/Quidditch OT3!!

eeee, I love this! So cute and funny and sexy and hahahaha, Harry is so stupid sometimes.

One thing I love about your writing is the way that even though you don't use a ton of description, I can always picture each scene perfectly -- it's just the right amount of description to suggest the scene, but not to overdraw it. You did that wonderfully here too -- the fight, the lockup, and their postmortem foot rub all come through equally well here, and I can really *see* each scene.

Lovely job -- thank you so much!! And haha, I am incredibly amused that I have been bugging you about your writing nonstop and you kept this to yourself. You're a better woman than I. :D

*loves* You'd be amazed how quickly this all come together -- really, it wasn't until I was putting the finishing touches on reallycorking's fic that it hit me you had a birthday coming up, and that if anyone deserved a gift it was you. I'm just glad I came up with an idea (an idea that involved Quidditch) and was able to flesh it out in time. :-D It's been a while since I've written something this light-hearted, so it was fun to be able to flex those particular writing muscles.

Oh this is sweet. Harry and Ron would really kick butt those guys for slandering Ginny. And Ginny having the right perspective, just show your talent to prove them wrong. I love this H/G moment. A wonderful gift to r_becca, lucky girl!

This is one of the things I enjoy so much about the Harry/Ginny dynamic -- after growing up with Ron, Ginny's used to the boneheaded sorts of trouble guys get into, so she can deal with Harry's infractions with a level head. Plus, she loves the cookies out of him. :-)

I'm glad you enjoyed this! Thanks so much for reviewing.

I loved this little story and I loved how Harry spared Ginny a little bit of the truth. Really great job!

Love this! Very nice characterizations and the dialogue felt very natural. :)

[magstopia]

Thank you! I'm so pleased to hear this. Dialogue is so tricky to write, so I'm very flattered that you think it sounded natural. Thanks for reviewing!
