like to think she reconciles with Harry and Ginny eventually and now I'm madly curious how much of Lily she would see in Ginny!
Ooh, now I really must write about Dudley's wedding and Petunia meeting Ginny and the children. *beats back plot bunnies for the moment* Anyway, I figure that it is unrealistic to expect Lily to have been a saint -- after all, canon proved that nobody else was! And even if Lily didn't mean to hurt Petunia, she certainly doesn't seem to have gone out of her way to heal the breach between them. (Witness her teasing Petunia about jealousy when she leaves for Hogwarts, for example.)
I have a thing about fairy-tales, so I am always pleased when I find a way to work them into a story. :-)
