Glasslight IV: Ginny

September can't come soon enough. Ginny is so close to finally, finally leaving the Burrow and the Ministry school and her mother's nagging behind. Ron's turned into a complete git, Fred and George keep trying to blow up the house, Percy is married to the Ministry, Charlie and Bill are only around long enough to leave again, and Ginny's been stuck here, all alone, with nothing to do but go to school and dodge away from chores—Well, not all alone, and not nothing to do. She has Tom, and she'd do most anything to protect him for what an amazing friend he has been over the last year. She has Luna, who has never been anything but patient when Ginny's anger boils over. But when she gets to Hogwarts— When she gets to Hogwarts, things will be different. And she'll still have them. Could Ginny really hope for anything more?[Series Update May 2022: Grey Space + sections I (Hermione), II (Ron), III (Draco), and IV (Ginny) of Glasslight now complete.]

Hi all! Just wanted to drop a note here. Most of Grey Space/Glasslight is genfic, and I'm still tempted to call this genfic as well. I've thrown in the pairing tags mostly in case anyone has a complete lack of interest in anything related to teenagers dealing with crushes and feelings, which are fairly central to this story, but I would not personally call this story a romance story, myself. There is no 'end game'. I'd more say it has to do with friendship and unbalanced relationships in general.Warnings:-Everything that comes along with Diary Tom-There's some very blink-and-you-miss-it indications of child neglect and abuse.-Some not explicitly consensual kissing.-Discussion of Luna's mother's death.
