Title: Ginny's Mermaid
Interesting storyline
Author's Response: I hope so lol! Please keep reading, I promise that the quality improves. LEO was my first novel and I would like to think that my writing got better as it went alone.
Anyway, thanks for the review! :-)

Title: Ginny's Mermaid
Oh the emotion. From the book we really were left totally in the dark how Ginny feels after Harry tells her it's best if they don't see each other anymore. I felt led to believe that she expected it and that she quietly accepts it. The rest was left to our imagination...the only other bit I remembered was after the kiss on her birthday she says "there's the silver lining I was after." I am quite happy to accept that she would have chosen not to make a fuss to make it easier for Harry. On the other hand, it has been a joy to read your interpretation of her feelings. I often debate internally if her family knew about their "relationship". I enjoy thinking they don't as it lend a bit of spice and interest! But I know in your fics they have always been aware and very supportive (some of these craxy brother fics are a bit hard to stomach). I am going to open a new tab and see if I can find one of my fav fics which has H and G caught snogging in the great hall...with hilarous lines from Fred and George and very good description of Ron's face (he of course knew what was going on)...no luck after 1.5 hours searching!
I am not surprised you got lots of people wanting more after your first orginal chapter! One of the charms I have asked for, for my birthday bracelet is Pegaus because of my love of horse and Harry Potter. The "mythical" creatures obvioulsy have an important job to play in this chapter. I am sure it is no coincidence that the mermaid disappeared the moment she said "Yes. I love him." Her parents obvioulsy realise the connection between Harry, Ginny and their behaviour. I loved the way they said "Harry's girl."
Cant wait to read more Peter
Author's Response:
Joy, As you can imagine, I was bereft after Harry broke up with Ginny in HBP, and I just had to write what it felt like from Ginny's point of view. When I decided to expand the original one-shot, I was quite nervous about it since I had never written anything long, and I also figured that it would be maybe 4 or 5 chapters. It ended up as 19, and on top of that I was able to express how I wanted them to come back together.
I guess most fics have Ginny's brothers trying to control her, and that annoys me for some reason. It's also become a cliche. I can see how Ron would be jealous of Harry, and how he would try to keep her under his thumb because she's the only sibling younger than him. But in my opinion, her two oldest brothers would see that she and Harry were perfect for each other, and on top of that they would remember how many times Harry had saved the life of one of them. I put those feelings of mine into The Hog's Head, if you remember.
So, LEO is my version of Book 7. I finished it about a month before DH was published, if I remember correctly. Of course, I got most of it "wrong", but I did get one thing spot on (which is in chapter 16 or 17, I forget which), and I also got a couple of other things sort of right. It will be fun to see what you think of that as you read.
I am SO looking forward to your thoughts about LEO! -- Peter

Title: Ginny's Mermaid
Wow. This is great! So original. I love the mermaid, the centaurs, Scrimgeour's threats, Molly's wisdom, Ginny's confession... I can't wait to read the rest.
Author's Response: Thanks for another review. The story is now AU. When I wrote it anything was possible for Harry's seventh year. Enjoy!

Title: Ginny's Mermaid
Excellent story. I don't think I've read a story like this before. Great idea to have the magical creatures looking out for Harry's interests (i.e. Ginny). Just think of the other magical creatures you can introduce to the plot.
I do hope you continue the story. You can do so much with what you have started.
