Going down with the SHIP

Laila:
they said that it was obvious in the ending scene, with that awkward
handshake that she was too shy(for lack of a better word) to hug Ron.
Supposedly this meant that she liked him. they said that she was too
comfortable with Harry, just as you should be with a good friend. She is
unsure of herself with Ron,like you would be with a first crush. I was
shocked I hadn't thought about it this way *shrug*. They gave me a whole new
outlook on things.

Me:
See, I thought of that, but I'm still not so sure.  Maybe if they hadn't
given it so much of a 'running through the flowers in slow motion' (yes, I
know it wasn't in slo-mo) feel, I would think differently.  I suppose
there's not much point in discussing it; it'll end up like every other piece
of canon evidence related to shipping ("It means she likes him! " "No, it
means she thinks he's a twit!").
