I can talk now, yeah… I'm sure by now you've heard all the worst stories. One shouldn't be given more importance than another, they're all important. It's the build-up. Like, in one of my paintings for instance – you have a white, blank canvas. You sketch a design, draw the outline; paint the lines; and fill 'er in. It seems simple enough, but missing one event means you've missed the whole story. The canvas is the beginning of their relationship, the outline was him building his security, painting the lines was the whistles and snapping of fingers, all he had to do after that was paint the whole scene. He did it almost flawlessly, but he forgot who he was going up against. Harry may have reduced Hermione to being submissive, but she was still Hermione really deep down. That's what bit hi9m in the arse at the end of it all. I would never cross Hermione Granger, God as my witness.
