But she is ruthless in her overcompensation. Somehow, I have a hard time
picturing Ron killing Harry, but Hermi is as cold blooded as a villain when
she has decided what she must do.

Having R/H kill him, would be like a second tower scene.

As much as I like the idea, I think Ginny will fall early on the seven book.
I already count her on the death, maybe because it's traditional to kill the
MS beloved? She's too a Cedric.
