Quite a good chapter. I think you handled Ron and Hermione particularly well. Again, I think a Harry/Multi pairing is wasted when it's primary focus is Ginny, but I'm sure I'll muddle through somehow. He's already got quite a roster lined up.
Looking forward to reading more.

I'm glad you liked the chapter! As I just noted in a previous review response, Ron/Hermione just bring that.. stubborness that makes things entertaining. Especially the early years with Hermione trying to prove she's not inadequate but isn't exactly a genius at making friends, and Ron feels threatened by her tenacity and isn't exactly polite about it. I wouldn't worry about Ginny dominating Harry's attention, he'll get around once his hormones gets going. My emphasis is just making clear that she'll be as close as Bonnie is to him right now. I have rough plans to go through, but that's down the road, right now Harry'll just get randomly hugged/smooched/squeed while he's going through the halls.
