A position for Hermione?  What about Coach.  Hypothetically of course 
as she has no interest in actual Quidditch other than supporting her 
friends who do play, but she has shown herself to be a powerful 
instigator and facilitator for Harry to assume his role as 
leader/captain of the DA.  Hermione stands on the side lines 
directing the action, telling the other what to do, she is a born 
leader who is not afraid to let the others play the game and take the 
glory.  Looks like a coach to me.

vmonte responds:
I could see Luna and Hermione working together. Leading the elves 
perhaps.  Hermione is going to need all the help she can get, she is 
not going about SPEW the right way at all.  

Dobby mentions in chapter 10 of COS: "But mostly, sir, life has 
improved for my kind since you triumphed over He-Who-Must-Not-Be-
Named. Harry Potter survived, and the Dark Lord's power was broken, 
and it was a new dawn, sir, and Harry Potter shone like a beacon of 
hope for those of us who thought the Dark days would never end, 
sir..."

I think the kids will be able to rally the elves onto their side if 
the go about it from a practical stance. If Hogwarts is destroyed 
along with the OOTP and many other muggle and wizard families, the 
elves will be out of a job. I don't think they will want to lose 
their jobs and go back to work for the nasty DE wizards.

And Neville; he's the locker boy who secretly wants to play but 
nobody has noticed his enormous talent until he is forced in to 
action to save the day.

vmonte responds: 
Do you think that Neville will get the wand in the window display at 
Ollivander's?  The wand that is very old...and has been given a 
special place of honor?  Does anyone else think that Neville is going 
to kick --- at the end of book seven. 

vmonte out!
