> Yes, Sevvy made his choice, but a whole slew of friends telling him how great he was trumped one girlfriend who was almost ashamed to publicly admit that she was his friend (note that Hermoine and Ginny had no problem being friends with Luna).

Kemper:
I think you got that last part a bit backwards. It's Luna who has no problem being friends with Hermione.

I agree about the reader's (or at least this reader's)anticipation of  Houses unification being a big dud.
