Change is what I expect, too. They're getting older, Ron and Hermione are
going to pair off any day now, and I don't think the people you're BFF
with when you're 11 are the only kids you hang around with your entire
adolescence. I really liked the beginnings of this in OOtP, with Ron and
Hermione riding in the prefects' compartment, and Harry meeting Luna and
becoming closer friends with Neville. As Harry gets older, and starts
participating in the war, I think it's important that he moves beyond his
clique and start developing friendships with others. Especially if he
starts the initiative of friendships among the houses. Hopefully, by the
time the kids graduate, it'll be common for kids from different houses to
be seen talking and eating together in the great hall.
