Musings on the Silver Doe scene

I'm re-reading "The Silver Doe" again, and I'm more convinced than ever that Snape deliberately arranged for Ron to be there at the time.

Half the point of that whole scene was to heal Harry and Ron's friendship - Harry's friendship with his first-ever and best wizarding friend.

Remind me, what did Severus say Harry's real strengths against the Dark Lord were?

"a simple combination of sheer luck and more talented friends."

Albus focuses on Harry's supposed purity. Severus notes his friendships.

And the "need and valor" condition on the Sword, if it was real or at least if Severus believed it was real...

Harry's need, and Ron's valor. Answering Harry's call for help.

“I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment,” she says. “That’s how it was conceived, really. For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron.”

Have you seen this? I think it's interesting that she said that she was clinging to the plot as she first imagined it. That explains a lot about the epilogue!

Marrying In: Pureblood Wizards’ Attraction for Muggleborn Witches

This is actually a response to the numerous posts about the Hermione/Ron ship in the responses to GoF 10: Mayhem at the Ministry.

Sorry, I’m very slow. But I think this is relevant to that debate.
