Whimsically Ginny

Damned_well_neurotic

Story Summary:
Ginny Weasley, the girl with a past she has not quite come to terms with. Grappling with the threat of a renewed war in the wizarding world, her own adolescence – a growing confidence versus endless worries, insecurities and rapidly accumulating ghosts – and her search for her own voice, Ginny subsequently learns to tackle an embittered Harry, a less-than-perfect Cho, a not-quite-repentant Percy, a self-deprecating Ron…and to befriend an indefinable, contradictory Draco Malfoy. Through it all, Ginny tries to redeem what she had gambled and lost in her first year, but unbeknownst to her, darkness often has a way of claiming ownership over more than what it owns…Post OoTP, possibly D/G or H/G, with references to former Tom/G.
