Just to add two knuts and a really late reply...

This is one thing I always find interesting about the trio. They have such 
different ways of reacting to things. In the instance of Lupin being a 
werewolf...

*Hermione, the smart one, already knew. She blows his proverbial cover and 
gets to feel a tiny bit...well, superior, for about half a second.
*Harry, even though we see through his eyes, we get no clear reaction from 
him *that I recall*. But I suspect this was rather mind blowing.
*Ron, who has lived in the wizarding world all of his 13 years and has grown 
up with the prejudices about werewolves, has the stomach-turning reaction of 
"Get away from me, werewolf!" (Well, it turned MY stomach.)

Such is on the House Elf Liberation and S.P.E.W...

*Hermione is...um, gung-ho to say the least about freeing the house elves. 
Her arguement is that they are slave labour.
*Harry, being the good friend that he is, pays his dues and becomes a 
*coughNonactivecough* member of S.P.E.W. He is a bit occupied with the 
Triwizard Tournament in GoF, but I don't think that he has a strong opinion 
either way as of yet.
*Ron, again who has lived in the wizarding world his entire life, uses the 
arguement that the House Elves *like* doing what they do, unpaid. This, of 
course, infuriates Hermione to no end.

Just something interesting...comments? Opinions? Rotten vegetables?
