Seamus/Lavender... I mean, it really doesn't add much to the plot,
does it? Jo's sinking it made me wonder the reason behind that
action. After all, it wasn't that unreasonable (or ofensive,
paraphrasing her words) as for example, Hr/Draco. Evidently she
wanted to get a message across, and I believe that we might be on
the right path in guessing her way of thinking. :)

I wonder if her debunking of Nev/Luna outright means one or both of the two has a pre-
ordained pairing in store for them. And as to with whom that could be, well, it's no secret 
Luna has had her eye on Ron, laughed at his jokes and sung his song while Neville went to 
the ball with Ginny and also had that little bout of rising to her rescue before the sextet 
left for the DoM. 

It's just interesting. I mean why else debunk a ship unless canon shall be written to 
eventually make it untrue? If neither Neville nor Luna were going to hook up (either 
temporarily or long term) with anyone else, then that ship is just a little romantic ideal 
floating idly in the waters and not bothering any canon--past, present or future.

I will start with one of JKR's favorites 'If they live to the end of book seven'. and it isn't a verbatim quote so let's not argue about it.

You seem to have left Harry and Hermione which is quite a realistic pairing of which I approve, amongst others. But I have the lovely feeling that we will reach the end of book seven with nobody who has survived VW2 hooked up with any other survivor.

Do you think that we would have twenty-five years of FanFiction? (any replies to this line should be on OTC and I hope that I do not get 'elfed' for writing it.)
