Harry would not marry, he would become a priest-wizard and vow not to marry. He would be on the fast track to become Headmaster.
I never saw a spark between Hermione and Ron, so I wouldn't pair them in marriage. That's too easy a resolution of what to do with the second and third most important characters, pairing them off. Too easy.
But like I said, I'll grant JKR her artistic integrity and accept the series as written.
Huh, I saw a spark between Ron and Hermione from the beginning. Certainly in book 4, when she told him that he should have asked her first if he wanted her to go to the ball with him.
Your ending would have been... interesting. My ending would have had Harry lose all his magical powers and live quietly on the edge between the magical and Muggle worlds.
Well, there should be a portrait of Snape in the headmaster’s office.
There were sparks flying from Ron and Hermione quite early.
I think it was in POA that Harry thought they reminded him of Mr. and Mrs. Weasley.
I wondered why Fawkes didn’t come and revive Snape but he led such a sad life with his unrequited love that he wouldn’t have been happy. I wonder if he’s in a portrait in the headmasters office?
Oh my, there's been something there since at least "Goblet of Fire"! Ron was so jealous of Krum paying attention to Hermione! And he's made comments about it ever since. I thought it was so cute that the first time she kissed him was when he suggested that they do something to make sure the House Elves were safe. Since they haven't mentioned S.P.E.W. in any o fthe movies, I guess they'll have to figure out some other way to bring that about in the last movie.
In the Order of the Phoenix movie, I noticed Ginny casting jealous glances at Harry when Cho is mentioned, or when he's with Cho. I'm sure that will become more evident in the next movie, but since it sounds as though they're not going to be doing any Quidditch in the Half Blood Prince movie either, they'll have to have some other plot device to get Harry and Ginny together.
