Gertie Gamp of "Resolving a Misunderstanding"

[MMADfan]

This poll concerns the character "Gertrude Gamp" from my story "Resolving a Misunderstanding." She's generated rather strong feelings, and there's been some debate on whether Gertie is good, evil, out for herself, out to have Albus for herself, or whatever.

Have fun! No need to reveal your personal feelings in a post this way, just click a poll answer!

The next chapter (the "ball" chapter) is about half written! Stay tuned!

EDIT: Bah! I forgot to add the option: "Doesn't matter, she's annoying & I don't like her!" Apparently there's no way to delete a poll and start over or to edit one once it's up. Oh, well!

I chose the option "Good and trying to help Minerva in some way." In her own odd way, she's doing something good, I just can't but my finger on it! She seems to really care for Min and Albus (and Quin too), and, after all, Albus trusts her! That's reason enough for me. But she's never been mean or snotty to Minerva at all (not like some other members of her family, *cough*Valerina*cough*). So, I like her, but I'm sure other's opinions will differ quite a lot.

Anyone want to guess what I voted?
Good and trying to help Minerva in some way, of course! Go Gertie!

I think while Gertie is good, she is trying to steal Albus.

Okay, as of 3 June 07, we have 10 votes, 7 for "Gertie's good and trying to help Minerva," 2 for "Good, but she's after Albus and setting Minerva up with Quin," and 1 for "Evil; she must want Albus, therefore, she's evil."

I hope we get a few more votes!

*EDIT*3 July 07, and we have 8 votes for "Gertie's good and trying to help Minerva," 2 for "Good, but she's after Albus and setting Minerva up with Quin," and 1 for "Evil; she must want Albus, therefore, she's evil."

It would be lovely to get a few more votes!*END EDIT*
