I’ll grant you the bit about DNA, at least up to a point, even though I’ve seen virtually all forms of bodily fluids and tissue referred to as DNA. I researched artificial insemination online and I incorporated the gist of the information on the subject into the story just the way I found it. And maybe it’s hard to believe that our couple couldn’t have had a night together in a year. Can’t blame you for that, but it can and does happen. Maybe I should have added something to clarify this, but they were not in the same country—one reason they were writing each other so much while apart.

And of course Harry had to eat and sleep sometimes, but there are also times he preferred to do other things in place of them, at least occasionally, which I have seen JKR portray in the books…and in this case, those “other things” usually meant writing Ginny. He definitely wasn’t close enough to her to simply come back and spend the night with her whenever he wished; that was the whole premise of the story, the fact that they weren’t able to be together.

And if they were together, one can guarantee that the last thing they’d be doing was sleeping! Of course their marriage was important to them; that’s why they wrote so much, pouring out their feelings to each other on paper. They had basically already decided it was best that Harry concentrate as much as possible on his mission to destroy Voldemort before they could make any concrete plans for their future. Let’s just say that writing Ginny and living as best he could was what he did half the time and the other half was concentrating on how best to defeat Voldemort the other half with Ron and Hermione.

No, I just like to see my favourite characters having children, the more the better. It probably stems from the fact that my mum worked in a maternity ward for over thirty years and loved working with the babies and mothers there. She always came home with various anecdotes, some of which eventually found their way into my fics. I hope you find this at least marginally acceptable.
