Good heavens, of course DGale is legit. No motive not to be, and everything she's said comports with how we now understand RP. For crying out loud, she gave us PICTURES.
Anyone who's lived long enough knows people who are like Ron, in varying degrees. They're called sociopaths, and they're all over the place. I've had two bosses who were just like him, and I'm ashamed that I didn't see right through this guy from the beginning. On behalf of most of the board (in my estimation), my apologies for the few who have expressed even a smidgen of doubt about you. (And, BTW, I think you're great. Love your sense of humor and intelligence. And I'll bet you really are beautiful, just like Ron said. And a good witch, too, even if you have this crazy idea that the magical Wizard of Oz could be a bad man.)
