Exactly. Or they could just, y'know, drift apart. The demonization of Harry is a very strong theme in almost every D/G fic I've ever read, and it frustrates me because I don't think Harry is a slutty jerk, and I also don't hate him for being in the way of Draco/Ginny. I actually kind of like Harry. In my epic fic, they're dating but don't see each other for a while, and when they meet again they just go "oh. Well. That appears to be over, then." And it's awkward and people get angry, but he's not out to ruin her life because she doesn't love him like that anymore. *glares at D/G fanfic writers*
I can see that. I was just sad not to see more Ginny--I mean, I know why she didn't come along in the last one, because it's the Trio and Trios don't usually get additions that late on, but I liked the bits of her character we saw, and I have my own fanon additions to that, and yeah, I just wanted her to do something. Reading more about the DA would've been fun. *suddenly realizes JKR should write short stories about Hogwarts during DH*
