Reviews for Three Options for Ginny
I m ill,... Need more stories!
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
sorry to read that. With the review process I'm running I really, really hope I'll be late and you're alive and kicking before ch 36.
Love the way Ginny handled those exams!
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Thanks, Sunny!
So happy your Muse is back!Love the maturing of Ginny as she handles each challenge that is coming her way in the story and Severus' loyalty and *love* for her, unfolding, in his own quiet, unique way. For some reason, this sentence struck me so profoundly: 'See, Severus has never been one for pretending. If he could not have the real thing, he was wont to decide he doesn't need it.' Perhaps because it is coming from Remus, who I always felt could have been a true friend to Severus, as they have so many things in common, if circumstances had been different in their youth, etc.Looking forward to more!

Hi Roni, thank you so much for your kind review!
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Hi Roni, thank you so much for your kind review!
Poor Lucius didn't know what had hit him! :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Definitely not! He'll have to get used to a new role, and you're the only one attending this tea who shows that much(?) compassion for the man. Thank you for the nice stars--wish I had a spell to transfer them to a tree. /\ / \ |

I'm glad she's safe and I almost hope Ron's collapsed or somethong instead of doing something stupid. I said almost because even if I don't like him too much I wish not him to be severely injured.
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Thanks, Snitchette, for your nice review. It is terrible wish for this, isn't it? Imagine Ginny wishing this to her brother! Ron showed that he has grown out of the most irrational handling--or so I hope. But there's no guarantee, I agree.
Please make her safe where she is. And if she's with her family make her return with Severus. To avoid angering Voldy more than necessary.
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
I will do my best, for I quite like her ;-)Voldemort was in so foul mood because a Horcrux was found. I consider this the occasion where he realises that the Order knows what to look for. Has this come out clear enough? Voldy would not like loosing Snape over the marriage curse, I quite agree. Severus still has his uses. As that girl keeps him in an agreeable mood and even provides her genes and womb for next generation fighters, she had better be found.
Oliver Twist!;)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
exactly! I found the similarity striking. What a chance for Severus to have Dravo look into a Muggle book.
Response from katielady08 (Reviewer)
Thanks for responding! I am really enjoying your story. This is the first Severus/Ginny pairing that I have read and I find that I like it. Can't wait till you post again!Thanks for writing!:)
I'm sure she did well enough to pass all her OWLs. And maybe more so she can continue her education. I was so glad for the update. Thanks for not abandonning the story.
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Oh, she did. She is related to Bill and Percy! But it is over, and that's her key impression. She couldn't care less for scores at this point.Thanks for the wonderful stars! I'll keep them polished.
The details of the exams were marvellous! :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
thanks dear, and many thanks for all the other reviews, too.
Finally he finds out how badly she has been treated.
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
It had to turn badly eventually.
Those Hufflepuffs were brave to venture into Snape's quarters! :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
You're very right. Florence is a Ravenclaw, but they're not known for courage either.
Even Fleur would be a welcome sight for Ginny. :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
She definitely was.
He was surprised she wanted his children? Still so insecure.
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Insecure yes, and totally unprepared for this.
She seems to be learning more useful stuff at home than at school. :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
When Ollivander is visiting, that would certainly be true. Thanks!!
Must be difficult being married to the teacher, but also being the lone Gryffindor. :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
It is. But bad company is still company, and Ginny needs people around her.
You have defined Ginny so well as her own woman, not a Hermione-substitute. Brilliant! :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Thanks, I was trying hard to make this point. Here, obviously, the glimpses into Muggle life helped me along.
Ahh. Once again you show the point of difference between Ginny and Hermione. :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
I'm glad you recognise it.
Poor Ginny is working so hard and just flying by the seat of her pants. Hopefully, she will get her reward in due course, :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Hm, who defines what is the "due course"? To me, it is overdue already!
Draco is trying hard. Hope Severus is paying attention. :)
Response from Bettina (Author of Three Options for Ginny)
Fat chance not to listen! Thankfully! Yes, Draco is totally frustrated. He knows that they are a good match.
