On MATE-ing, too me it made Ron come off more layed back. More calm.
Not to say he no longer has a temper, but he just seemed a lot more
relaxed, and more supportive of Harry. You know those people ( i am
one of them) that are like, hey whatever floats your boat. In a weird
way saying mate all the time made him seem a lot more like Arthur for
some reason. I could be way off but that's just my take.
Also, Hermione definitely does not come off perfect too me. She's an
overachiever of course. She should be involved and good at way too
much. Didn't everyone have one of those annoying good at everything
people in High school? Not that I think Hermione is annoying. And she
does have shortcomings. She is not good at sports at all, and she is
somewhat of a late bloomer in the love department. I mean she has a
pen pal not a boyfriend. And although she is prone to good ideas, she
is also a panicker;
My favorite example of this being in POA in the shrieking shack after
Snape is knocked unconscience. "We attacked a professor! We attacked
a professor!"
Oh but the long and short of this is that everyone is growing up and
changing is all.
