Girl Talk Challenge Update #1

“Knock, knock.”

Ginny didn’t know how she did it but she opened the door.  “Hello, um, may I help you?” she asked looking at the red-headed girl a little older than she was.

“Hi Ginny.  I’m Lily, Harry’s mum.  I know you’ve seen pictures of me.”

“How can you be here?  You’re dead.  But I heard you knocking.  What’s going on?”

“Ginny, you’re asleep and I am in your mind as a dream.  But we are having a normal conversation.  That’s how you heard my knocking.”

“How can this be?”

“We both know I’m in the afterlife.  But in your mind as you sleep, I am able to talk with you.  You need a little help in getting through to my son and to help him destroy Voldemort.  I’m here to help you accomplish both goals.”

This is one way to tell this story.  I’m sure you can come up with another for this Challenge.  Good luck!

This Challenge was great fun to write. There are all manner of possibilities in this genre. Just think of all the great ghost/angel films that you've seen. It's a Wonderful Life, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, A Guy Called Joe/Always, The Bishop's Wife, Field of Dreams, Angels in the Outfield just to name a few. Then we get to imagine what a conversation between the girls would be like. "I love what you've done with your Halo Mrs. Potter." "So you're thinking maybe a spring wedding someday Ginny?" I'm especially curious about the ideas concerning what might be in the cup other than water. The sky (as in heaven) is the limit folks!

Also, now that finals are over, I'm making myself available if anyone needs Beta help. Great luck people! Eric B.

@Spenser: Or Ghost, itself. Can you imagine? "I know his name's Potter, Ginny, but don't ever think of making pottery together while listening to Unchained Melody..." "Wha...?" "Muggle joke. Never mind."

@ sapphire 200182: Ginny, bless her little pureblood heart, would NEVER get that joke! :-)
