[quote=Noctaline] That gave me an idea!What if, instead of killing her, the horcrux of the diary used Ginny as a way to recruit or harm those that opposed Voldemort? The horcrux of Harry's scar could have merged with his dark thoughts as well and that could lead to both a dark Ginny-Draco and a Harry-Hermione a few years down the road. [/quote] Are you saying (cause I wanna make sure I understand right) that the diary made Ginny more dark and sort of did the same thing to Harry? More like releasing some weird dark magic to sort of corrupt them?
