Character from harry-potter-order-of-the-phoenix by
Ravenclaw Seeker, DA member, and the girl Harry has been watching since third year. But Cedric died six months ago and the grief makes everything between them complicated and painful.
Cho is caught in an impossible emotional position. She's drawn to Harry because he was the last person to see Cedric alive, and talking to Harry is the closest she can get to understanding what happened in that graveyard. But every conversation about Cedric leads to tears, and Harry -- who is fifteen and drowning in his own anger and trauma -- has no idea how to handle someone else's grief when he can barely manage his own. Their first kiss happens under the mistletoe and it's awful -- she's crying, he's confused, and neither of them knows what the other needs. They try dating and it falls apart because Harry can't talk about feelings, Cho can't stop talking about Cedric, and the mention of Hermione's name makes Cho jealous in ways that baffle Harry entirely. She joined the DA because she believes Harry about Voldemort's return, and she's brave enough to show up and learn. Her friend Marietta betrays the DA to Umbridge, and Cho's defense of Marietta is the final break between her and Harry. She's not a villain -- she's a grieving teenager and so is he, and they simply can't save each other.
Long shiny black hair, pretty face, slightly taller than average. Athletic build from Quidditch. Often has red-rimmed eyes from crying this year. A fragile quality that wasn't there before -- grief has filed away the easy confidence she used to carry.
