Hi,

I'm new to the group, and this may be an idea that has already been 
explored, but I'm wondering if Ron might not be tempted to follow 
Voldemort for a little bit (causing problems for Hermione, who he's 
obviously going to get together with)

This is why I think so:

1) SOMEONE we know is going to go over to the other side, it just has 
to be.  Rowling seems to be trying to make Harry understand that the 
line between good and evil is not as clear as he would like to think, 
and this is the only real way to get harry to figure that out

2) I really doubt it's going to be Percy.  That would just be lame.

3) Ron's desire to get out of the shadow of his brothers/Harry make 
him a target for temptation (let's not forget what he saw in the 
mirror of Erised)

4) Ron still really fears Voldemort, which also makes him susceptible to his power.  In OotP, Hermione begins saying Voldemort's 
name, and Ron reacts fearfully every time.

5) None of the triad can die.  But something's gotta happen to them.  
they just cant walk around triumphing over evil in every book.

...maybe I'm being silly, but it's a thought....

p.s.  10 dollars says Neville's going to become a healer
