12-10-2006 00:50 Rated 10 Have you changed it since the last time I read this, it's even funnier! As for poking fun at the theory, a quite innovative take on it, most of them are claiming it's her flowery scent, but putting it in the book makes it even funnier. Good job, I needed a laugh. ~Chaz Author's Response: Well of course there is always some last-minute tweaking that you may not have seen. So glad I made your day. Some theories just beg to be made into fics. Bella Puff is up next.

11-18-2006 05:22 Very funny, I particularly enjoyed his first impression when Snape misunderstood what she wanted the potion for and asked "Who is the lucky idiot?" And also the part where "his voice was more bitter than she had ever heard it before." You know exactly what I mean about that, I'm sure. Are you planning any follow up chapters? I'd love to see the effect of the potion, since we know from HBP that Ron didn't accidentally get the book and JKR didn't fully explain Harry's sudden attraction to Ginny. I'm glad there was no chance of Fred & George accidentally getting affected by the potion, that would be far too kinky, even more so than Ron getting hold of it. Author's Response: Sorry these are just a series of one-shots. There are a few more of them to come though so don't worry.

11-18-2006 01:28 Aw, come on LW, couldn't you have thrown a sop to us Ashwinderians by tossing in a little SS/HG angle here just for good measure? This is great - really funny and yet not such an over-the-top parody that it beats you over the head. I now officially know that there are too many people who spend too much time thinking about HP if there's really a theory out there suggesting that the HBP Potions book was coated with Amortentia. Your story also makes me realize how far we have not come as women since the 1950s: Ginny is noted to have two different boyfriends (besides Harry) in the course of two years in canon. Hardly promiscuous, no? Yet the trope of "Ginny gives it away to half of the boys at Hogwarts" has such a life of its own in fanon. I guess the double standard exists even for witches. Oh well, great story anyway. Author's Response: Well I sort of did--Ginny gets Harry; Snape gets Hermione. But if you insist, I suppose I can abuse Ashwinder too. ;-) Poor Ginny she really just can win, can she? The site where I found this had a major Ginny bashing thread. What is a Choco/Heron anyway? :-?
