I have been reading the "Ron as Prefect post" since it started and I
just wanted to ask one questions...
Lets say "hypothetically" of course that when Dumbledore sat down
and decided who was going to be the Gryffindor prefect he decided
that it would "obviously" be Harry, because we all know that Ron
doesn't deserve to breath the same air as wonderful, great, perfect
Harry more or less receive a highly coveted position such as prefect
over Harry... So in the fifth book how do you think Harry would act
like, as prefect? Do you think he would have pinned on his prefect
pin and all of a sudden turn into everything that Hermione, and
Ernie would hope for, turn into the embodiment of all Percy stands
for? Or do you think he would react the exact same way (if not
similar) to the way Ron reacted? Because I can see Harry doing the
same things that Ron did... I can see Harry being intimidated by the
twins, finding having to deal with the first years annoying, what
else did Ron do? (That wasn't a mistake on JKR's part)
can't think of anything... Maybe because we really didn't get to
see Ron while he was being prefect. Who's to say that Harry would
have made a *better* prefect? Do you think that Harry would have
jumped up in an instant to defend his ladylove, the one person who
has ever been loyal to him, the one girl who knows him as no one
else does, his perfect life partner, the girl of his dreams, smart,
perfect, beautiful, can do no wrong... Harry's "other half"... errrr
(rolls eyes) I mean Hermione, from the twins? Or do you think that
he to would have coward behind a book? Because he just didn't want
the confrontation with the twins (who would?)... I just don't think
Harry would have "all of a sudden" turned into Percy, the embodiment
of all things "prefect" but I guess it would be acceptable for Harry
to act the way Ron did about his prefect duties, but not! Ron! I
mean... has the boy died yet? Come on JKR save us all the pain of
having to read about horrible, immature, "not loyal to Harry" Ron.

Who loves Ron, Harry, and Hermione equally... just feeling really
sarcastic, and annoyed by that fact that if Harry does it, its OK,
but if Ron does it, its Criminal; and how some H/Hr's
"belittle" Ron to "up" their ship.
