NOTHING. HAHAHA. I didn't like her.
If I'm not thinking of someone else (there're too many characters) I think she played for a Quidditch team but came back to fight in the Battle of Hogwarts. Edit: I think Ginny played for a Quidditch team. I can't find it anywhere and the book didn't mention it, I don't think. Saving it for the encyclopedia I guess. |

Yeah, both Ginny and Cho played.
I am pretty sure Ginny beat Cho, as seeker once. It didn't say she died so I guess she lived. |

Saving it for the encyclopedia I guess. Yeah, Ginny is a Quidditch player; she joined the Holyhead Harpies (of whom I think she had a poster on her bedroom wall in the seventh book), and after a few successful years she retired from the team and became Senior Quidditch Correspondent for the Daily Prophet. Cho Chang married a Muggle...interesting. Neville and Hannah Abbott got married  that's cute. I can totally see the compatibility, but I don't remember it ever being hinted at, so that's a pleasant surprise.And, something that I didn't see coming: Dumbledore was gay. Apparently, he had an unrequited love affair with Grindelwald. I wish JKR had revealed this earlier, even after the sixth book when he died...I always did wonder why Dumbledore never had a significant other... |

I figured they loved each other as friends or something; just a platonic love relationship but an unrequited love affair? Again, wtf?!Apparently, he had an unrequited love affair with Grindelwald.

Where did you get this? |

Lol, you can see I'm shocked. Where did you get this? I just visited Mugglenet recently, and bam, there it was in front of me. http://www.newsweek.com/id/50787 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...&refer=home QUOTE Mugglenet.com -- Oct 19 2,000 lucky fans had the opportunity to interact with JK Rowling this evening at Carnegie Hall. The reading was rather eventful, as Jo revealed a lot of new information previously unknown about the series. The most notable news of the night was the revelation of Dumbledore's sexuality. Jo says Dumbledore was gay and in love with Gellert Grindelwald. JK, in response to the audience's reaction, said "If I had known this would have made you so happy, I would have told you years ago." I don't know if that's the first time she's publicly announced it, but in any case it was recently. |

^ Don't worry about it, it doesn't take an official announcement on a character's sexuality for fan-fiction kids to do a bunch of slash fics. They just do it anyway. Have you SEEN the number of Draco/Harry fics? Disturbing.

i know ! crazy that dumbledore's gay. But I really think she wasnt trying to put any hints in the book because then her sales would of went down slightly. But hey if she confirms it then its all good.

He seemed flamboyant in the books now that I look back.Yea, if she had said this earlier, many parents wouldn't buy the books for their kids. Crazy parents. |

Dumbledore: Potter, will you come into my office please?
Ron: Why does he always ask you to go into his office, anyway? Harry: *sigh* You don't want to know... |

It almost seems as if JKR made Dumbledore gay as an afterthought once the series ended, even though she says that she's always thought of him that way. Some people are extremely surprised, yet some aren't, and say they could've seen it coming.
I wish that she had revealed this in the very beginning! But instead of it being "revealed", it would have just been another description to add to his character. Insurmountable's question has already been answered, but the topic is way off course, lol. Cho should get some attention, too! SHE MARRIED A MUGGLE, OMG! |

XD (Kidding, but I *used* to write Batman/Robin slash... the comics and the original series makes it just too damn easy) Guess Albus likes them bad. Makes sense though really, considering how he'd team up with such a character. OH and Cho is a moron. :P |

There's a "DUMBLEDORE IS GAY" topic that was moved to the Books section, though...although it was technically revealed in this topic first lol.I guess the title isn't attention-grabbing enough. |
