A/N: So, this chapter is going to be in honor of me seeing "Sweeney Todd" twice in December and loving it. (Let us have a moment of silence out of nerdy respect for Johnny Depp, Tim Burton, Stephen Sondheim, the rest of the cast, and the awesome costume/set designers). So, with that introduction, this chapter will feature the song "Johanna" from Sweeney Todd.

And I am really, really sorry about a lack of updates. Apparently I am too busy with school and seeing movies an obsessive amount of times. (points to above paragraph)

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or Sweeney Todd.

Harry Potter: A Hot New Musical!

An Ode To Crimson Hair

Phantom Commentary: I have to admit, I have a soft spot for a certain budding relationship in the Harry Potter series. I… how you would say… "ship" the pairing of Harry/Ginny. I admit this somewhat willingly (though with a certain degree of embarrassment). My only problem with this pairing is that Harry goes from not knowing this girl exists to suddenly being madly in love with her. I tried to fix this odd quirk in their relationship with a 'love-at-first-sight' moment in the musical. It did not work out however (copyright stuff and all that) but I still enjoy the scene.

Harry was lounging about by the lake with his best mate Ron. He was munching contentedly on an apple and surveying a map of the school, wondering why the Divination room had to be so far from everything else.

"It's bloody ridiculous," he finally concluded aloud, tossing the map back into his bag. Ron nodded distantly as he studied the ripples in the lake.

"Yeah," he agreed faintly, his mind obviously wandering toward what lunch would be like in a few hours. Harry snorted at his friend's obliviousness and then suddenly, something occurred to him. He shifted his body closer to Ron and looked at his friend in earnest.

"Didn't you have a sister?" Harry asked, eyes squinting and brow furrowing, trying to remember. Ron snapped out of his thoughts for a moment and nodded at Harry.

"Yeah, her name is Ginny," Ron explained, looking confused. "I think you've met her a few times." Harry shook his head. "Well, she goes to this school. You're bound to have seen her," Ron tried again, shrugging. Harry shook his head. Ron gaped at him in surprise. "What are the odds of that?" he exclaimed and shook his head.

"Yeah, weird," Harry agreed, ruffling his hair.

"Well, I'm gonna go to the Great Hall and steal some food from the house elves," Ron decided and stood. "You want to come?" Harry shook his head and Ron left without his best mate.

Harry sighed and turned his head toward the castle again only to see a red heat sticking out of one of the dormitory windows. Harry's jaw dropped open and he leapt up to his feet. He had never seen such an exquisite face in all of his life. And instantly he knew that this was Ginerva Weasley, the sister to his best mate Ron.

Harry walked closer to the castle and cocked his head to the side, smiling in this new love. In the background, a cheesy romantic tune began to play as Harry opened his mouth and sang, "I feel you Ginerva. I feel you…" Harry's voice trailed away as he continued to stare up at Ginny. "I was half convinced I'd waken satisfied enough to dream you. Happily I was mistaken, Ginerva!"

Suddenly, Dean Thomas (also known as Ginny's boyfriend) crossed into Harry's line of view and tapped Ginny on the shoulder. Ginny turned and smiled at him, though Harry believed it to be halfhearted. She then left the window side and went off somewhere with Dean.

Harry stared, shocked and unable to believe that he would actually have some competition. He turned painfully away from the window, touching the ache in his chest painfully. He then turned his head to look back at the window and frowned in concentration.

"I'll steal you, Ginerva. I'll steal you…" Harry vowed darkly. He looked away from the window and instead turned his attention to the other side of the lake, concentrating again. "Does he think that walls can hide you?" he wondered, now verging on creepy. He turned back to the window and sighed. "Even now I'm at your window. I am the room beside you," Harry now turned to fully face the window and a grin split across his face. "Sweetly buried in your crimson hair!"

Harry now wheeled away from the castle once more and dashed toward the Entrance, nearly giddy from happiness.

"I feel you, Ginerva!" he shouted as he stopped sprinting to face the audience. "And one day I'll steal you," Harry added as he clenched his hands into fists, staring down at them. " 'Till I'm with you, then I'm with you there! Sweetly buried in your crimson hair!"

Harry gave one last wide grin to the audience, and then turned and entered Hogwarts.

The set shifted to turn into the Great Hall, where Harry plopped into a seat next to Ron.

"I want you to introduce me to your sister," Harry announced, grabbing a plate and filling it with various food items. Ron raised his eyebrows but smiled.

"Er… okay," Ron agreed amiably. "I'm sure she'd like to meet you." Harry grinned at Ron and tucked into his meal.

"Great," he mumbled through a mouthful of food. "Can't wait."

"Oh, one thing Harry," Ron said as he began to stand up from the table. "Don't call her Ginerva. She absolutely hates it. Just call her Ginny," Ron explained and then turned and began to walk toward the Gryffindor Common Room.

Harry sat at the table, pondering this. "Well, shit!" he cursed, "That doesn't fit in the song!"
