Should have put a few more "some" in there, shouldn't I <g>?

Sorry about the use of the broad brush, but I don't think I
got my real point across (as I was afraid I wouldn't).

It has more to do with how we as readers (not all, but some)
are waiting for breakthroughs in some characters (namely Ron
and Neville, as examples) and I was wondering if they'd
still like the characters, if they *didn't* have this
breakthrough.

I mean, readers (some) who see this potential in a character, which
may or may not be realized.

I shouldn't have brought the shipping into it, since it
muddied my question.

And I should think about the question I'm trying to ask a
bit more, since I don't really seem to be able to put it
into words ;)
