Then you say:

| 4)  SHIP question:  Luna makes a point to wish Ron luck for the
| Quidditch match and Hermione gives him a kiss.  They both pretty much
| ignored Harry.  Is this a foreshadow of a cat fight to come?  Who
| would win?

[Lee]

I don' know...I think maybe Luna realized this was Ron's first real game;
she knows what Harry can do, but sees/senses that Ron is plum scared and
nervous and gives him a little extra encouragement.  She probably just
figures Ron really does need good luck to get him over his jitters.

As far as Hermione is concerned, well...that may be the beginning of a bit
more interest in him...and a bit of empathy, too.
