Always, with Harry, it's angst.  And no doubt, it should be.  JKR 'shipped' Harry & Ginny for a reason.  She is exactly what Harry needs to survive the war: a reason to live and love.  I'm sure on some level, rarely discussed anywhere, the fact that Ginny is a redhead like Harry's mum resonates in his sub-conciuos.  I'm sure the fact that she's a very talented witch, and fearless, with a sense of humor and a good heart, all attract Harry as well.  The fact that she's a Weasley, and part of the only family that ever treated Harry as family, is icing on the cake.  Do I think that it was this tough for Harry to accept love after all he'd been through?  Probably not, but this story does a great job of exploring how difficult it could have been, and is probably closer to that side of Harry than anything else we've seen. Well written, and well edited, too!  I just wish this site would iron out and repair the formating issues when stories are posted.  It would be great to see things properly punctuated...
