interaction resembles that of Arthur and Molly Weasley.

ME: I completely agree with your description here. I got the same 
impression from the book. They not only argue like an old married 
couple, they seem as comfortable with each other as a couple married 
for many years would. My take on this is that Hermoine has understood 
her feelings however Ron still has not come to terms with it. Also 
while Ron's cribbing about Hermoine writing to Victor Krum might have 
been mentioned in passing, it seemed to highlight Ron's sustained 
jealousy.
