HP MotW (11): Favorite Ginny Moment

Question of the Week: What is your favorite Ginny moment?

Ginny's got so many awesome moments that it's hard to choose. But the first one that came to mind is from Half-Blood Prince. It's during a quidditch game (I love me some quidditch) and the temporary commentator, Zacharias Smith, is talking trash about Harry as Captain, Ron and Ginny, and the entire team in general. Gryffindor ends up winning the game and shutting Smith up, but that isn't quite enough for Ginny:
"Ginny, Where're you going?" yelled Harry, who had found himself trapped in the midst of a mass midair hug with the rest of the team, but Ginny sped right on past them until, with an almighty crash, she collided with the commentator's podium. As the crowd shrieked and laughed, the Gryffindor team landed beside the wreckage of wood under which Zacharias was feebly stirring; Harry heard Ginny saying blithely to an irate Professor McGonagall, "Forgot to break, Professor, sorry." - Pg. 298, Ch. 14
 You can totally tell that the twins had an influence on Ginny. I love it!

What are some of your favorite Ginny moments?

  2. Haha! I thought it was hilarious when she was called to visit with Slughorn because she had hexed Smith. I loved her crashing into that podium too. He would not let up about the Gryffindor Quidditch Team so it was a moment of great retribution that she still wouldn't get in any real trouble for. Later, when Luna was commentating and she says that Smith was suffering from Loser's Lurgy just brought that moment back to the forefront LOL

  3. LOLOL! That is such a brilliant line! Ginny got some great revenge against Smith, and she didn't even use the Bat-Bogey Hex that time! XD
