Potioncat:
I think he does.  Particularly as he acknowledges (with sarcasm of 
course)  that she has helped Neville correct potions. And I would 
think he expected her to be the to discover Lupin's secret. He was 
probably expecting her to tell the boys.

about 'everyone wants to be a Gryffindor' and I pointed out that 
many more listies had called themselves Ravenclaws (like me, for 
example), and some clever listie replied: "That's because the 
Gryffindors are too busy saving the world to have time to go on-
line."

Potioncat:
I suspect that each student thinks his House is best. And probably 
sees the negative aspects of the other Houses.  A brave Hufflepuff 
may see himself as a loyal, brave person and be glad that he is not 
reckless like a Gryffindor. (For example.)
