You’re not going to be able to type for a few minutes while we make some announcements, please bear with us, you’ll be able to type again soon. [19:16] <fawkes28> There may be times during the chat when a moderator will want to PM something to you. Please keep an eye on the top of your screen, right next to the button with #Lounge on it. A button will appear with one of the mods' names on it. If you see that appear, click on it to see the PM that has been sent to you by that mod [19:16] *** Pellinore has joined #lounge [19:16] <fawkes28> You won’t be able to reply to that PM, but if you could just say something like "Sooner, got it” in the main chat, to let us know that you have seen it, that will be great. We'd also like to remind you that the rules of the Lounge also apply here in the Corner Booth, and may be found here: http://www.leakylounge.com/?act=rules [19:16] <fawkes28> If you need to contact us during the chat, send one, or all, of us a PM on the Lounge. We will be checking them regularly, but if we haven't replied after a little while then please let us know here that you have sent a PM. Thanks for your cooperation! [19:16] <fawkes28> While its easy to drift off in various directions, let's all try to have a fun chat by sticking to the topic for today. OK, moving on to the topic for the chat! [19:16] *** FawkesFlames has quit [Bye] [19:16] *** FawkesFlames has joined #lounge [19:16] <futureweasley> When we first see Ginny Weasley, She is described as being small, with long red hair and bright brown eyes. She is the youngest of the Weasley family and has 6 older brothers. [19:16] <futureweasley> Harry sees her interacting with her family and then watches her chasing the train, laughing and crying, as it leaves the station. In this first scene, her connection to Harry is established with Harry overhearing a scene in which Ginny begs her mother to be able to go on the train and see the famous Harry Potter. [19:17] *** danae24 has joined #lounge [19:17] <futureweasley> She starts to emerge as a forceful personality with a sense of humour and playfulness. As her character emerges, we learn that she is warmhearted, loyal and brave and has a fierce temper when riled. She can be unkind when angered, but comforting when sympathetic. [19:17] <futureweasley> Ginny is perhaps best known for the traumatic events she endured during her first year at school and as being the love interest of the title character, Harry Potter. [19:17] <futureweasley> Ginny is short for Ginevra, which is Italian for Guinevere. Guinevere was also the name of King Arthur's wife. Is Jo trying to give us any hints with the Arthurian meaning of her name? [19:17] *** BrettMac has joined #lounge [19:17] <SoonerGryffindor> I love how all of the Weasleys have arturian names [19:17] <danae24> Maybe to show the force that Ginny is.............. [19:17] <kaelgirl> I think that could be a possibility [19:18] <DumbleDebbie> that's a cool connection [19:18] <futureweasley> this really intrigues me...and I think it's likely [19:18] <An_Eternal_Night> wow, I didn't know that Ginevra was Latin for Guinevere! [19:18] <DumbleDebbie> yeah, it's great Sooner [19:18] <FawkesFlames> I'm slightly slow on this but what was Guinevere's role in Arthur Legends? [19:18] <danae24> she may be a small girl, but she is powerful [19:18] <Shard> It is, the Weasly's seem to have a strong mythlogical connection [19:18] <Poet> Yes indeed. She has several Arthurian references in the series. [19:18] <kaelgirl> I love how she has a fierce Bat Bogey Hex. that is awesome [19:18] <fw00per> I never realized all the Weasley's have Arthurian names [19:18] <Shard> I think Jo has been hinting there is more to this girl that meets the eye [19:18] <FawkesFlames> yeah they do, even down to Percy [19:18] <SoonerGryffindor> well, the fact that she is the love interest for the hero is a big link, I think [19:18] <futureweasley> well, she brought down the knights of the round table, as she had an extramarital relationship with Lancelot (so says the legend), Flames. [19:19] <fw00per> that's awesome - I just discovered a whole new world [19:19] <Shard> Well Percy is more obivous then Bill, George and Fred [19:19] <Poet> Harry pulls a sword out of a hat and then saves Ginevra wink [19:19] <FawkesFlames> Her similarities to Lily are fairly stricking too [19:19] <nympheart> she never had kids [19:19] <daretodream2> I didn't know about the name orgin or the weasley's, interesting [19:19] <danae24> me too fw00per [19:19] <Shard> lol Yes SG I would agree there [19:19] <Aislinn> yes sooner [19:19] <fw00per> absolutely sooner [19:19] <BrettMac> me too...am I too late to join in? smile [19:19] *** emeraldflames has joined #lounge [19:19] <futureweasley> hi emerald [19:19] *** harrypotterfreak4 has joined #lounge [19:19] <DumbleDebbie> hi emeraldflames [19:19] <SoonerGryffindor> never too late unless the chat is over Brett [19:19] <fw00per> no brett, we just started [19:19] <nympheart> hi emerald and hpfreak [19:19] <Shard> I think it could be said that Ginny hasn't shown us her full potential [19:20] <DumbleDebbie> hi hpfreak [19:20] <emeraldflames> hi [19:20] <harrypotterfreak4> hi everyone [19:20] <FawkesFlames> I agree nymph [19:20] <nympheart> i agree shard [19:20] <BrettMac> Hi [19:20] <danae24> I agree with that Shard........ [19:20] <harryfreak359> wow I never knew her name originated from that [19:20] <fw00per> i agree shard [19:20] <BrettMac> Me too [19:20] <kaelgirl> She could very well show us everything she's got in the next book. I'm looking forward to it [19:20] <fw00per> she's a fiesty one [19:20] <harrypotterfreak4> as am i [19:20] <harryfreak359> awww, I share a name sake with her...that's awesome smile [19:20] <fw00per> lol [19:20] <Shard> I agree she is very fiesty [19:20] <BrettMac> Could she maybe join the trio in DH? [19:20] <FawkesFlames> well it must be in the next book because there are no other chances [19:20] <futureweasley> right, she's already shown her feriosity...she will be a force to be reconned with in DH, I think [19:20] <DumbleDebbie> neat HF [19:20] <danae24> She is a really powerful witch....... just from the fact that Slughorn saw potential in her says something [19:20] <futureweasley> Ginny is the first girl to be born into the Weasley family for several generations, which according to Jo is meant to indicate that Ginny is a very gifted witch. Have we seen good examples of this so far? [19:20] <FawkesFlames> I don't think Harry will let her join the trio [19:20] <DumbleDebbie> mee to FW [19:20] <SoonerGryffindor> I think we have [19:20] <harryfreak359> I think so [19:20] <fawkes28> definitely [19:21] <Greeneyes15> Yes [19:21] <DumbleDebbie> oh yeah [19:21] <danae24> Her Bat-bogey hex says all [19:21] <harrypotterfreak4> she's also the seventh child [19:21] <fw00per> bat bogey hex - 'nuff said [19:21] <MrMcGonagall> Definitely. The Bat Bogey Hex, for one. [19:21] <BrettMac> Well that's true then it would be a fouro...or something [19:21] <daretodream2> yes, the bat bogey hex [19:21] <kaelgirl> definitely [19:21] <harryfreak359> lol [19:21] <Shard> 7 is a lucky number as well [19:21] <harryfreak359> yes indeed [19:21] <Pellinore> only a touch from the bat-boogy hex and her abilities in the DA [19:21] <Aislinn> Her brothers and Slughorn have both admired her skills [19:21] <BrettMac> We never really see much of the bat bogey except from ginny [19:21] <FawkesFlames> Was she in the slug club just for the hex [19:21] <futureweasley> lol fw00per...that was a nasty bit of charmwork [19:21] <Shard> She is unique and maybe even a sign of change [19:21] <DumbleDebbie> she survived being possesed by Voldy [19:21] <SoonerGryffindor> yes. Being the first girl and being the 7th child all seem to lead to her being very powerful [19:21] <FawkesFlames> She's likely good at Potions too [19:21] <Aislinn> yes flames [19:21] <Shard> Maybe a change of luck for the Weasley's [19:21] <BrettMac> I agree [19:21] <nympheart> yes, debbie [19:21] <An_Eternal_Night> we have, but I think that we will be seeing a lot more of it [19:21] <Shard> Definatly she is going to do more [19:22] <Pellinore> at least marry into money ;) [19:22] <FawkesFlames> Her brothers seem to fear her as well, even though they're older and just as magically inclined [19:22] <fw00per> she's obviously mature too - having survived LV's possession of her with no lasting scars (that we've seen) [19:22] <DumbleDebbie> lol Pellinore [19:22] <futureweasley> she seems to be Harry's equal in many ways (magically speaking)...she good at what she's good at, and the rest comes from application [19:22] <BrettMac> maybe she's a horcrux...dont start yelling at me, i wasn't serious smile [19:22] <fawkes28> very true, fwooper [19:22] <danae24> she is intelligent too [19:22] <DumbleDebbie> I think they're there fwooper, on the inside [19:22] <kaelgirl> ah, gotta run. gotta hate work. [19:22] <Aislinn> yes, future, I'd agree with that [19:22] <MrMcGonagall> Yes, Fred and George are careful not to cross her. [19:22] *** Greeneyes15 has quit [Bye] [19:22] <DumbleDebbie> bye kaelgirl [19:22] <danae24> bye kael! [19:22] <Aislinn> bye kaelgirl [19:22] <daretodream2> I think she knows just as much magic as her brothers and they are all quite gifted at times [19:22] <harryfreak359> bye Kaelgirl [19:22] *** kaelgirl has quit [Bye] [19:23] <SoonerGryffindor> When I think of Ginny, I think of the term "dynamite comes in small packages" [19:23] <Pleshette> be back in bit [19:23] <FawkesFlames> I think her connections and similarities to Lily are really important [19:23] <harryfreak359> lol [19:23] <BrettMac> Me too lol [19:23] <fw00per> I sometimes think of her as the female version of Fred and George [19:23] <nympheart> lol, SG [19:23] <harrypotterfreak4> i think all the weasley's will play a part at some time in the last book [19:23] <Shard> Thats a good term Sooner [19:23] <MrMcGonagall> Good point, Sooner! lol [19:23] <DumbleDebbie> that's very accurate Sooner [19:23] <fw00per> yes Fflames [19:23] <fawkes28> being in a family with six boys with definitely make a girl strong [19:23] <DumbleDebbie> bye Pleshette [19:23] <daretodream2> yes sooner [19:23] <Pellinore> I was thinking that Bill was her favorite older brother but I'm not sure if that's cannon or something i read in a fan fic [19:23] <futureweasley> very true fawkes28 [19:23] <Shard> I have toi agree there Fawkes [19:23] <emeraldflames> i agree fawkes [19:23] <harryfreak359> bye Pleshette [19:23] <FawkesFlames> no it's cannon [19:23] <harryfreak359> I agree Fawekes [19:23] <BrettMac> Me too [19:24] <harryfreak359> Fawkes* [19:24] <FawkesFlames> Bill is her favorite, it seems [19:24] <futureweasley> Ginny seems to be most famous for her mastery of the bat-bogey-hex. According to the Lexicon, the bat-bogey hex engorges an opponent's 'bogies' to bat-size, gives them wings, and sets them to attacking his or her face. What do you think about this spell? [19:24] <Shard> It is Ginny admires Bill and the Twins [19:24] <BrettMac> wow it seems like all I'm doing is agreeing... [19:24] <emeraldflames> it's never said specifically if she has a favorite brother, but she seems overly protective of Bill, especially in HBP [19:24] <nympheart> that's hilarious [19:24] <Poet> Disgusting, but effective [19:24] <Aislinn> it seems a rather gross spell, but effective [19:24] <SoonerGryffindor> I think it shows both her power and her mischevious side [19:24] <DumbleDebbie> I don't want to be on the receiving end, that's for sure [19:24] <harryfreak359> um...disgusting...yet I would so love to be able to use it [19:24] <MrMcGonagall> Tht is even more disgusting than the slugs. [19:24] <futureweasley> she must have learned it from the twins [19:24] <futureweasley> lol [19:24] <BrettMac> That's true and she seems to have a sort of rivalry with ron [19:24] <Poet> A perfect spell for a girl with 6 brothers to learn [19:24] <Shard> I think that spell is gross and I can't wait to see it in the thretres [19:24] <FawkesFlames> sounds like a really complex kind of charm [19:24] <fawkes28> i agree, sooner [19:24] <An_Eternal_Night> I think it's disgusting and amazing at the same time [19:24] <Shard> and I love that she did that to Malfoy lol [19:24] <DumbleDebbie> lol FW [19:24] <BrettMac> lol [19:24] <daretodream2> I think its really quite gross [19:24] <FawkesFlames> and to perform it well would be hard I think [19:24] <Shard> I bet she did FW [19:24] <Poet> I wonder if she ever used it on her brothers are retaliation - all in good fun of course [19:24] <Aislinn> it doen't seem to be one that a lot of people have mastered [19:25] <emeraldflames> I hope they show it in the film [19:25] <Aislinn> we don't really hear of other people using it [19:25] <nympheart> i'm sure she has poet [19:25] <BrettMac> Slughorn wouldnt compliment her if it wasnt really hard [19:25] <SoonerGryffindor> to me, it seems only a spell that a girl with 6 brothers would know [19:25] <Poet> *as retaliation [19:25] <futureweasley> I just think that she is a mite that packs a whollop, and there is just no messing with that girl [19:25] <MrMcGonagall> As hexes go, it's pretty nasty. [19:25] <Shard> It's hindted at in the first book [19:25] <harryfreak359> I agree Sooner lol [19:25] <An_Eternal_Night> is it the same as the Curse of the Bogies we hear about in Book 1? [19:25] <Shard> Ron wanted to learn the curse of the Boogies [19:25] <FawkesFlames> is it a hex in canon or is it called a charm? [19:25] <DumbleDebbie> yeah, love that about her FW [19:25] <Aislinn> it may be, AEN [19:25] <harryfreak359> It's a hex I believe [19:25] <SoonerGryffindor> I bet it is the same thing [19:25] <futureweasley> you want to cross a Weasley? Do so at your own peril! [19:25] <Pellinore> could be why she wanted a Pygmy Puff as a pet so the Bat-Boggy Hex couldn't be used against her ;o [19:25] <BrettMac> Lol [19:25] <fw00per> it shows her tomboy side [19:25] <MrMcGonagall> Definitely a hex, at least in the American edition. [19:26] <futureweasley> yes MrMcG [19:26] <futureweasley> Hex...US Edition [19:26] <FawkesFlames> she seems fair minded too, when she got on Ron for being a hypocrit [19:26] <BrettMac> Well i got canadian so that doesnt help sad [19:26] <fw00per> lol [19:26] <FawkesFlames> that reminded me of Lily trying to help Snape [19:26] <Shard> That Pygmy Puff is a Tribble I tell you lol [19:26] <SoonerGryffindor> lol [19:26] <Poet> Well, you'll have to go read up on Jo's site where it explains all the differences and similarities between hexes, curse, charms, etc. wink [19:26] <Poet> Yes, Shar, I agree. [19:26] <DumbleDebbie> yes, it does seem like that Shard LOL [19:26] <Pellinore> Tribble with a tounge [19:26] <fw00per> what's a tribble? [19:27] <Shard> They're in trouble if little Arnold starts breeding [19:27] <Pellinore> star trek refference o; [19:27] <FawkesFlames> Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them sir [19:27] <Poet> I think we have indeed seem examples of her magical skill [19:27] <SoonerGryffindor> its a star trek thing [19:27] <Shard> Little furbals from Star Trek [19:27] <DumbleDebbie> Star Trek ref fwooper [19:27] <FawkesFlames> haha [19:27] <fw00per> figures [19:27] <BrettMac> lol shard [19:27] <Aislinn> Let's stick to the question on the table smile [19:27] <Poet> And the fact that Slughorn thought it was good enough to invite her to his Slug Club says a lot [19:27] <Shard> Sorry *sheepis* [19:27] <fw00per> pardon my ignorance [19:27] <SoonerGryffindor> back to the bat-bogey-hex, I love how she has made this her "thing" [19:27] <An_Eternal_Night> yeah, it does Poet [19:27] <Shard> It does seem to be her own thing! [19:28] <FawkesFlames> yeah it gave Ginny something that is almost solely hers [19:28] <emeraldflames> yeah, you never really see anyone else using that hex [19:28] <BrettMac> Yeah [19:28] <Aislinn> it is definitely her specialty sooner, yes [19:28] <nympheart> so do I, Sooner, it's her trademark [19:28] <DumbleDebbie> yeah, don't mess with her! [19:28] <FawkesFlames> I don't believe we've seen anyone else perform it [19:28] <Shard> Kinda like how Snape claims Levicorpuis as his spell [19:28] <harrypotterfreak4> each character does seem to have a special speel [19:28] <danae24> but even for a bat-bogey hex, if I recall correctly, she does it with more power than other people [19:28] <Aislinn> and shows her to not be a shrinking violet, or girly-girl [19:28] <harrypotterfreak4> spell* [19:28] <FawkesFlames> well snape did create levicorpus [19:28] <Pellinore> its an interesting spell but if you can still cast while being attacked it only effects those who can't concentrate under pressure [19:28] <SoonerGryffindor> good comparison Shard [19:28] <Shard> Perhaps Ginny is as creative as Snape? [19:28] <futureweasley> she has taken what she knows and tweaked it to become "hers"...and that is very admirable in such a young person [19:28] <Shard> Agreed FW [19:28] <futureweasley> We know nothing about Ginny's wand, whether it be new, or hand-me-down. If you had to take a guess, what would you venture Ginny's wand core is and what would it be known as being good for? [19:28] <fw00per> yes future [19:28] <BrettMac> Yep [19:28] <SoonerGryffindor> phoenix [19:28] <Poet> Dragon heart string [19:29] <danae24> I guess it's new...... being the only girl [19:29] <DumbleDebbie> that'd be cool Sooner [19:29] <FawkesFlames> I would say Dragon Heart String as well [19:29] <futureweasley> I think it's Dragon Heart Sting, too [19:29] <nympheart> i think it would match Harry's, phoenix [19:29] <Pellinore> dragonheart string and hex's [19:29] <BrettMac> Maybe ie's phoenix feather and thats why she's attracted to harry? [19:29] <harryfreak359> hmmm, well I'm no expert with wand cores but i'd say the dragon heart string as well [19:29] <fawkes28> i agree poet - dragon heart string [19:29] <daretodream2> I would say dragon heart string also [19:29] <Aislinn> I think it would be known as being good for charms [19:29] <SoonerGryffindor> and I think it would be good for Charms [but not because of Lily] [19:29] <FawkesFlames> I'm betting it's like Lilys [19:29] <Aislinn> and I agree with dragon heart string [19:29] <BrettMac> Maybe [19:29] <futureweasley> I think that it's likely all the Weasley's dragon cores are the same...it's part of what makes them so "tight" [19:29] <An_Eternal_Night> I think it's a dragon heartstring as well [19:29] <fw00per> i can't decide, leaning toward dragon heart string [19:29] <Shard> I am going to hazard it is new... [19:29] <SoonerGryffindor> nonon. Ginny is very unlike Lily, IMO [19:29] <harrypotterfreak4> i also think dragon heartstring [19:29] <FawkesFlames> whatever Lily's core was is what hers is. And it's likely good for charms [19:29] <MrMcGonagall> For Ginny, I really don't know. I could see any of the Ollivander options. [19:29] <nympheart> I doubt that she has her own wand though [19:29] <Poet> I say dragon heart string simply because of the words used in its name wink [19:29] <harryfreak359> I think it is new as well [19:29] <Pellinore> rather see it being something that would complement Harry rather then duplicate [19:29] <DumbleDebbie> that's a neat idea FW [19:29] <emeraldflames> Hermione also has dragon heart string [19:29] <fawkes28> phoenix feathers aren't that common either [19:29] <SoonerGryffindor> I just have a feeling it may be phoenix [19:29] <harrypotterfreak4> maybe charley got the wand for her for a present [19:30] <futureweasley> is it Hermione with the Dragon Heartstring? [19:30] <Aislinn> yes, pellinore, I agree [19:30] <emeraldflames> yes [19:30] <futureweasley> I thought that was Ron [19:30] <BrettMac> I think so [19:30] <nympheart> yup, fw [19:30] <emeraldflames> Ron has the unicorn [19:30] <danae24> we still havent seen anyone with unicorn hair. so maybe she has one in her wand [19:30] <Aislinn> I think it is future [19:30] <nympheart> on Jo's site [19:30] <FawkesFlames> Ron had unicorn hair [19:30] <SoonerGryffindor> and I do think it is new as well. She has been too good all these years to be using a hand-me-down [19:30] <harryfreak359> yeah fw [19:30] <danae24> ohh......... forgot about ron [19:30] <Poet> Well she IS firey, so it could be either phoenix or dragon... [19:30] <SoonerGryffindor> Ron, Nevillie, and Cedric all had unicorn [19:30] <FawkesFlames> I agree SG [19:30] <Pellinore> wasn't ron's a handme down from Charlie or another brother? [19:30] <daretodream2> I agree it her wand is not new [19:30] <Aislinn> me too, sooner - I think it is new to her [19:30] <An_Eternal_Night> we don't really have a good idea as to what it would be good for because we've never seen her in classes before [19:30] <nympheart> yup, Pellinore [19:30] <fw00per> if she is using a hand-me-down, think what she could do with a new one [19:30] <FawkesFlames> The wand is new because I can't imagine anyone who would have given up theirs to her [19:30] <harryfreak359> Ron's came from Charlie [19:31] <FawkesFlames> and it wouldn't be as effective [19:31] <Shard> If everyne with Unicorn hair died I dont think there'd be that many characters [19:31] <BrettMac> I don tthink jo would do that, create a new wand core after all this time [19:31] <Poet> I think after 7 children there might have not been another wand to hand down [19:31] <nympheart> I think Ginny's is probaly a hand-me-down, but if Ron got a new one with the winnings from the draw, maybe she did too [19:31] <Pellinore> i would expect Her wand to be a new one.. courtesy of either Bill, Charlie or both [19:31] <harryfreak359> mmhmm, I agree Poet [19:31] <BrettMac> Yeah theyd need their wands all through life [19:31] *** Floridagirl8192 has quit [Bye] [19:31] <DumbleDebbie> i think it's new too [19:31] <danae24> I'm guessing is new since Mrs. Weasly talks about getting a wand in Diagon Alley for Ginny....... maybe it's a second-hand wand [19:31] <SoonerGryffindor> she's just too darned good with it [19:31] <DumbleDebbie> yep [19:31] <harrypotterfreak4> i agrre sooner [19:31] <Poet> Good catch danae24 [19:31] <harryfreak359> all wands are second though really, aren't they? [19:31] <MrMcGonagall> I agree Sooner, I think it's new. [19:31] <FawkesFlames> I'm not sure there is such a thing as a second hand wand [19:32] <futureweasley> I think the Weasley's would have tightened the financial belt to get the first girl in forever her own wand, personally [19:32] <BrettMac> Do they sell 2nd hand wands in diagon alley? [19:32] <harryfreak359> second hand* [19:32] <FawkesFlames> I don't think so [19:32] <SoonerGryffindor> so we all probably agree it is either dragon heartstring or phoenix, and new, eh? [19:32] <emeraldflames> not that i can recall [19:32] <Aislinn> she does seem to be quite good with it, too good for it to be a second hand wand [19:32] <fw00per> yes, future, I think they may baby her a bit [19:32] <harryfreak359> yes,I agree Sooner [19:32] <FawkesFlames> I would assume that the wand chosing the wizard would make the wizard inclined to keep it [19:32] <Pellinore> <--- being the older brother I'd easily see them helping out on her most important item. [19:32] <An_Eternal_Night> I agree future [19:32] <Shard> You know with Ginny's ability I think she has a wand that matches her [19:32] <danae24> If you no longer want the wand you have, you sell it.......... [19:32] <Aislinn> what about the wood? [19:32] <MrMcGonagall> Maybe Ginny gets a little special treatment in the family, too, for being the only girl. No hand-me-down robes, either. [19:32] <Poet> No, because otherwise it wouldn't be so big a deal for Ollivander to be gone [19:32] <FawkesFlames> unless of course it was broken or worn to a level that made it useless [19:32] <Shard> I mean who's to say a hand me down can't match the person?? [19:32] *** Floridagirl8192 has joined #lounge [19:32] <BrettMac> Thatstrue shard [19:32] <Aislinn> it's less likely though, shard [19:32] <BrettMac> *thats true [19:32] <SoonerGryffindor> true Shard, but I still doubt it [19:32] <harryfreak359> very true Shard [19:32] <Poet> And since he makes most of the wands, I'd imagine if there were second hand wands he'd be selling them himself [19:32] <DumbleDebbie> when is her birthday? [19:32] <nympheart> no, shard, but it still would cast spells, just not as strong [19:32] <futureweasley> but, even with the "pampering", she's not a princess...she's not a snot [19:32] <DumbleDebbie> it likely matches that [19:33] <FawkesFlames> I think that the wand might retain a bit of the person who previously owned it [19:33] <SoonerGryffindor> August [19:33] <harryfreak359> in August right? [19:33] <fw00per> the wood I think would be holly to match Harry's [19:33] <MrMcGonagall> True, FW [19:33] <SoonerGryffindor> 11th [19:33] <fw00per> haha - not a snot [19:33] <emeraldflames> she does have hand-me-down robes [19:33] <danae24> I dont remember... [19:33] <emeraldflames> tom riddle mentions her complaining about that in the diary [19:33] <harrypotterfreak4> i think her wood would be holly [19:33] <Poet> She's a Leo just like Harry. [19:33] <Pellinore> I always figured a smart wizard would keep the old wand as a backup at least.. heck i'd have 5 wands just in case i droped or had one expelled [19:33] <BrettMac> Well...i gotta go. bye guys [19:33] <harryfreak359> Yeah she is [19:33] <futureweasley> not so much "hand-me-down", but second hand, yes [19:33] <harryfreak359> bye Brett [19:33] <An_Eternal_Night> I would have thought it was willow, if Ron's hadn't been willow [19:33] *** BrettMac has quit [Bye] [19:33] <SoonerGryffindor> bye Brett [19:33] <Aislinn> bye brett [19:33] <DumbleDebbie> Auguest is Hazel on Jo's site [19:33] <nympheart> bye brett [19:33] <Shard> Bye Bret [19:33] <MrMcGonagall> Oh, that's right, emerald. [19:33] <FawkesFlames> I don't think her wand would match Harry's [19:33] <futureweasley> Does Ginny embody the traits of a typical Weasley? What makes her simiar or different from her brothers and which Weasley family member does she seem the most like? [19:34] <danae24> they go by the Irish wood thingy.... [19:34] <fw00per> I think her wood would match Harry's, but not the core [19:34] <harrypotterfreak4> i think she's like fred and george [19:34] <fawkes28> i think her sense of humor - they almost all have that in some way [19:34] <Aislinn> I think she is very like the twins [19:34] <FawkesFlames> yeah she is most like Fred and George [19:34] <Poet> She has a little of Ron's and Mrs. Weasley's "temper" [19:34] <fw00per> same here hpf [19:34] <SoonerGryffindor> I think she is most like a mixture of Fred, George, and Molly [19:34] <futureweasley> lol fawkes, I like that too [19:34] <emeraldflames> She's like Fred and George [19:34] <Pellinore> She seems to be her own person but closest to Bill [19:34] <danae24> She has a bit of everyone [19:34] <harryfreak359> I think she is a weasley, she is most like Fred and George for sure [19:34] <Aislinn> daring, with a good sense of humor [19:34] <FawkesFlames> She learned a lot from them growing up in my opinion [19:34] <Shard> I think Ginny's favors the rebels, Bill and the Twins [19:34] <MrMcGonagall> I think so, too, Sooner. [19:34] <daretodream2> Ginny has her brothers sense of humor and wanting to get into trouble for a good cause [19:34] <futureweasley> she is hilarious, loves a good joke, but still has a sense of "duty". From what we know of him, I think she's most like Bill [19:34] <Shard> Bill with his long hair and earring [19:34] <SoonerGryffindor> she definitely has her mother's temper [19:34] <FawkesFlames> She definately will bend the rules [19:34] <DumbleDebbie> Bill, twins, Molly [19:35] <FawkesFlames> and that's like Fred and George [19:35] <Poet> I can imagine that they are the coolest among those that she would have hung out with, close to her age (the twins) [19:35] <DumbleDebbie> lol [19:35] <fawkes28> she is definitely more relaxed and carefree than some of her siblings [19:35] <harryfreak359> yes I agree Shard, becuase she is a rebel in a way, being the only girl, she has to be [19:35] <fw00per> she also gets fired up every now and then [19:35] <danae24> she does admire Bill a lot....... [19:35] <harryfreak359> indeed, Fawkes [19:35] <FawkesFlames> she is similar to Molly [19:35] <futureweasley> oh, I don't think she's like Molly at all. Hermione has the peg on that market [19:35] <Aislinn> I don't think she is like Molly either [19:35] <emeraldflames> I agree FW [19:35] <FawkesFlames> I think she would get rather fierce when her friends are attacked [19:35] <SoonerGryffindor> I think she hero worships Bill almost, but that she is most like the Twins as far as her brothers go [19:35] <harryfreak359> She has a little bit of Molly in her I think [19:35] <DumbleDebbie> Hermione is more like her in the nuturing FW [19:35] <daretodream2> I agree fw, ginny is more laid back [19:35] <nympheart> i agree, sooner [19:35] <Aislinn> She is much too free spirited and willing to break rules to be like Molly [19:35] <harrypotterfreak4> but in the books it talks about ginny giving "molly-like" looks [19:35] <fw00per> I think she has some Molly in her [19:35] <Poet> Too true futureweasley . She is quite laid back. [19:35] <DumbleDebbie> She's got Molly's fire though [19:35] <Shard> Molly is a little uptight [19:35] <futureweasley> yes, Ginny is "chill" when Molly is on fire [19:36] <danae24> lol future! [19:36] <fw00per> nailed it dumbledebbie [19:36] <SoonerGryffindor> and she has Molly's temper [19:36] <Shard> Molly and Percy are more alike [19:36] <danae24> how? [19:36] <DumbleDebbie> right sooner [19:36] <FawkesFlames> I think Ginny could definately be fierce if her friends, those she loved, were in danger [19:36] <FawkesFlames> I think molly is like that too [19:36] <DumbleDebbie> definitely FF [19:36] <Pellinore> she's still young yet so its hard to compare personallities when she's still a way to discover her's entirely [19:36] <nympheart> she has been FF [19:36] <harrypotterfreak4> i think she has molly's temper, fred and george's sense of humor [19:36] <Aislinn> fierce yes, but not the day to day personality of her mom [19:36] <FawkesFlames> Molly does what she does to protect people [19:36] <SoonerGryffindor> Molly is a rule-breaker. she is in the OotP [19:36] <harryfreak359> Yes I agree, Sooner, and FF [19:36] <nympheart> true sooner, she snuck out with Arthur one night [19:36] <danae24> Molly protects those she loves, same with Ginny [19:37] <Shard> Not as much as one as her other family members [19:37] <Aislinn> I think she is very little like her Mom [19:37] <fw00per> yes danae [19:37] <FawkesFlames> no she isn't like Molly all day everyday but I believe she has some of Molly's temperment in her [19:37] <Poet> And she's a Quidditch player, so she has the additional connection to the twins that makes her similar to them. Ron's a quidditch player as well, but Ginny has the twins confidence [19:37] <SoonerGryffindor> I bet Molly was quite a handful in her younger days [19:37] <Aislinn> much closer to the twins, and possibly Bill [19:37] <Shard> The weasley's are very loyal to each other, expect Percy [19:37] <danae24> she stands for the underdogs......... Neville and Luna [19:37] <fawkes28> quite true, poet [19:37] <An_Eternal_Night> yes Sooner, she and Arthur went on midnight walks at Hogwarts, didn't they? [19:37] <FawkesFlames> I agree Shard [19:37] <Pellinore> Molly was the 7th of 7 to correct? [19:37] <SoonerGryffindor> before becoming a mom made her more responsible [19:37] <daretodream2> true danae [19:37] <FawkesFlames> and Ginny is vehement about Percy's descent [19:37] <MrMcGonagall> I think she's perhaps like Molly used to be. I think Ginny will follow a different path as an adult, though. [19:37] <SoonerGryffindor> yes AEN [19:37] <futureweasley> well, whatever the Weasley kids have, they got from both Molly AND Arthur. So, it's fair to say that they all have a little "Molly" in them someewhere [19:37] <Poet> sure [19:38] <fw00per> I see her quidditch playing as her own - she doesn't play positions her older brothers have [19:38] <harryfreak359> I agree Fw [19:38] <FawkesFlames> She acts as though she hates Percy because he was no longer loyal [19:38] <daretodream2> agree fw [19:38] <Shard> Thats a good point FW [19:38] <Aislinn> Molly has a traditional streak in her that I don't see in Ginny [19:38] <Pellinore> at least half of their DNA ;) [19:38] <SoonerGryffindor> arent all of us women more like our moms that we wish/or admit to being? [19:38] <Shard> Well Ginny did play Seeker [19:38] <DumbleDebbie> lol Sooner [19:38] <harryfreak359> yeah, true Sooner [19:38] <Shard> Though do we know what Charlie played? [19:38] <harrypotterfreak4> i don't think she hates percy, i think she's disappointed in him for betraying the family [19:38] <nympheart> I think Ginny may develop that streak [19:38] <daretodream2> I'm not going there sooner [19:38] <futureweasley> urm, yep Sooner... [19:38] <SoonerGryffindor> lol [19:38] <harryfreak359> lol [19:38] <Aislinn> there are always aspects of our mothers in all of us, yes [19:38] <danae24> but her stron point in Quidditch is Chaser [19:38] <fw00per> charlie was seeker [19:38] <Shard> I'm more like my mom... [19:38] <Aislinn> but not her primary qualities [19:38] <futureweasley> In book 1 after Ginny found out who Harry was, she wanted to run back into the train to get a better look at him. What are your thoughts on this scene and what does it tell us about Ginny? [19:38] <FawkesFlames> Charlie was seeker I think [19:38] <Poet> Mr. Weasley is a Muggle-lover, so perhaps some of Ginny's standing up for the underdog grew out of seeing her dad [19:38] <fw00per> but she prefers chaser [19:39] <SoonerGryffindor> that she is not afraid [19:39] <DumbleDebbie> I think it's adorable [19:39] <danae24> That she grew up admiring Harry...... [19:39] <Shard> Ginny was very young at this point and yes very Gryffindorish [19:39] <SoonerGryffindor> she's so open emotionally [19:39] <emeraldflames> yeah, it shows that she's not afraid [19:39] <MrMcGonagall> Early fascination with Harry [19:39] <harrypotterfreak4> she'd heard the stories of Harry and wanted to see him [19:39] <daretodream2> she grew up hearing his name and wanted to meet him [19:39] <Aislinn> I think she knew what she was interested in, right from an early age [19:39] <fw00per> hero worship and fascination [19:39] <fawkes28> yes, it definitely shows her gryffindor qualities [19:39] <danae24> not in the devoted fan way, but rather in the "I admire him" way [19:39] <FawkesFlames> I think it shows that she's admired and heard good things about him but she's also fearless [19:39] <Floridagirl8192> wow, quidditch is sure the weasley's sport [19:39] <Aislinn> right danae [19:39] <SoonerGryffindor> oh, it sets up her and Harry's relationship right from the beginning [19:39] <Pellinore> she admired the myth and the Weasley's must have shown some kind of admiration in telling the tale that she picked up on [19:39] <futureweasley> I think she thought him a fictional character...someone to be looked up to, like a "fable". When she found out her was real, it was like Christmas...a gift [19:39] <Aislinn> it does, sooner smile [19:39] <Floridagirl8192> did percy play quidditch? [19:39] <Poet> She's a romantic - even in her child-like way? Harry's story as a baby is a "romantic" one in some ways - boy survives.... [19:39] <FawkesFlames> her fear to be around him sure set it up in Chamber [19:39] <danae24> No [19:40] <fawkes28> it was like he was a celebrity - she grew up hearing his name and was curious and in awe [19:40] <Shard> I agree SG, Jo set up that scene to be very nostogica "Where mommy and Daddy first met:" kind of thing [19:40] <harrypotterfreak4> lol, i can't see percy playing quidditch [19:40] <MrMcGonagall> Me too, Sooner. I saw the first anvil drop on the platform in Book 1. [19:40] <SoonerGryffindor> it does also show that the Weasley family are not supporters of you-know-who if she wanted to go run and see them [19:40] <SoonerGryffindor> me too [19:40] <fw00per> awww shard that's cute [19:40] <DumbleDebbie> yeah, that's sweet Shard [19:40] <Pellinore> could have been an infatuation that once she learned more about Harry, wore off [19:40] <FawkesFlames> she talked about it in HBP [19:40] <fw00per> or intensified [19:40] <Shard> Once she saw through the Rockstar image yes I think Ginny really began to value Harry more [19:40] <Aislinn> actually, shard, that is where Jo's parents met, so that makes a lot of sense [19:40] <FawkesFlames> she said that Hermione told her to get over it and ease u [19:40] <FawkesFlames> up^ [19:41] <MrMcGonagall> Oooh, good catch, Aislinn. [19:41] <Poet> Ooo, Aislinn, I almost forgot that bit of info [19:41] <Shard> That's what I was talking about Aislinn and what convinced me of H/G [19:41] <SoonerGryffindor> back to the scene in book 1: What were your impressions of Gnny here? [19:41] *** cbm has joined #lounge [19:41] <DumbleDebbie> lol I thoughtt hat's what Shard meant [19:41] <fw00per> hi cbm [19:41] <cbm> hi again! [19:41] <futureweasley> wb cbm [19:41] <DumbleDebbie> oh he did lol [19:41] <An_Eternal_Night> hi cbm [19:41] <nympheart> hi cbm [19:41] <danae24> she was just a curious girl, trying to meet a legend [19:41] <SoonerGryffindor> I think it was so great that she was this carefree little girl running and crying following the train also [19:41] <fw00per> cute, eager, full of energy [19:41] <Shard> I think Ginny shows a senbse of adventureism by wanting to run back on the train [19:41] <nympheart> a bit immature too [19:41] <futureweasley> Ginny was adorable, like someone opened her eyes to heroes that day [19:41] <Shard> That she is definatly not a quite sit in a corner girl [19:42] <danae24> she was 10 [19:42] <fw00per> she fears nothing but loneliness [19:42] <Aislinn> it endeared her to me right away [19:42] <Pellinore> impressionable child with a strong sense of curiousity and willingness to follow through and not hide in embaressement (not entirely) [19:42] <harryfreak359> Yes, I agree Future [19:42] <emeraldflames> I think it's a good example of the 14 year old spitfire we'll later meet [19:42] <SoonerGryffindor> she was 10 and I think that showed a lot of spunkiness for that age [19:42] <futureweasley> me too Sooner [19:42] <daretodream2> yes it did, sooner [19:42] <Shard> Agreed Sooner [19:42] <danae24> or her first crush...... [19:42] <futureweasley> very astute observation... [19:42] <fw00per> she wasn't embarrassed either [19:42] <SoonerGryffindor> nope [19:42] *** WaggaWaggaWerewolf has joined #lounge [19:42] <fw00per> hi wagga [19:42] <nympheart> hi www [19:42] <daretodream2> hi www [19:42] <Aislinn> hi wagga [19:42] <DumbleDebbie> hi wagga [19:42] <FawkesFlames> I thought it was just like any ten year old who'd want to meet someone they grew up knowing about [19:42] <harrypotterfreak4> lo wagga [19:42] <Poet> With six older brothers she's learned to stand up for herself [19:42] <Shard> Hi Wagga! [19:43] <An_Eternal_Night> hi Wagga [19:43] <futureweasley> The next year that we see Ginny at the Burrow, she seems to act completely differently around Harry than she does around her family. What do you think of how Ginny dealt with this whole situation? [19:43] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Hello. [19:43] <Shard> Shes had to, she doesn't want to be overshadowed but she doesn't do it in a woe is me like Ron does [19:43] <fw00per> I was like that around a guy I liked - it made sense to me [19:43] <danae24> she deal like any tween with a crush......... all shy and stuff [19:43] <FawkesFlames> she was young and in awe of him and probably thought he was rather cute [19:43] <nympheart> she was very self-conscious [19:43] <Aislinn> I think it is natural for a girl with a crush as big as hers to act shy around the object of the crush [19:43] <Shard> Ginny dealt with the abscence of her brothers [19:43] <Shard> Probably all alone [19:43] <FawkesFlames> she dealt with it the way most young girls deal with a crush [19:43] <cbm> Which year are we talking about? [19:43] <Poet> It's always a bit weird to to have members of the opposite sex that aren't your brothers in the house [19:43] <SoonerGryffindor> I felt so sorry for Ginny in this scenario [19:43] <Pellinore> started to get shy about her fealings and didn't know how to deal with it... typical for that age. [19:43] <harrypotterfreak4> it's different to meet a guy you like in a public setting than it is in your own home [19:43] <Shard> Maybe she went and talked to Luna *g* [19:44] *** amyluhu has joined #lounge [19:44] <Aislinn> CoS, cbm [19:44] <DumbleDebbie> hi amyluhu [19:44] <futureweasley> well, she was blathering on like a 12 year old SHOULD blather on! She was embarassed and panicky.. [19:44] <emeraldflames> I think the difference between the first book and second book is very telling, when dealing with her crush [19:44] <daretodream2> well I think the person she has always wanted to meet is actually staying in the house and she is a little thrown by it. [19:44] <SoonerGryffindor> you have to admit that she handled it very well considering the circumstances [19:44] <fawkes28> plus she was in her own territory - so she could feel more comfortable [19:44] *** ProngsPatronus has joined #lounge [19:44] <Aislinn> yes d2d, it is different to have him face to face [19:44] <danae24> yes..... it's more dificult for her to hide the fact that she really likes Harry [19:44] <fw00per> she wasn't exactly expecting him [19:44] <DumbleDebbie> hi PP [19:44] <nympheart> hi PP [19:44] <fawkes28> hi prongs [19:44] <SoonerGryffindor> hi Prongs [19:44] <Aislinn> hi prongs [19:44] <FawkesFlames> g2g guys things to do [19:44] <amyluhu> What's the topic? I'm late [19:44] <FawkesFlames> night everyone [19:44] <An_Eternal_Night> hi Prongs [19:44] <nympheart> bye FF [19:44] <ProngsPatronus> hello, all!

[19:44] <Aislinn> bye flames [19:44] <fw00per> hi prongs [19:44] *** FawkesFlames has quit [Bye] [19:44] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> In the first book Ginny on her own at home but in second book she was developing a problem due to her diary [19:45] <fw00per> bye flames This post has been edited by fawkes28: Jan 10 2007, 09:34 PM |
