I've only skimmed through DH. She doesn't seem to be in it much, and when she is, Harry mostly thinks of her in a physical way.

I guess Ginny's is to Harry, as Victor Krum was to Hermione.

AKA, no Ginny does like, nothing in this book.

"She picked up the book and then walked back past him into the tent, but as she did so, she brushed the top of his head lightly with her hand. He closed his eyes at her touch, and hated himself for wishing that what she said was true: that Dumbledore had really cared."

Reason: If only JKR cared. Next to GH Graveyard scene, this one is my favorite. I'll be glad to see some H/Hr acted out on the big screen.

This scene gave me butterflies. The nice, kind though.

QUOTE

But they were not living, thought Harry: They were gone. The empty words could not disguise the fact that his parents' mouldering remains lay beneath snow and stone, indifferent, unknowing. And tears came before he could stop them, boiling hot then instantly freezing on his face, and what was the point in wiping them off or pretending? He let them fall, his lips pressed hard together, looking down at the thick snow hiding from his eyes the place where the last of Lily and James lay, bones now, surely, or dust, not knowing or caring that their living son stood so near, his heart still beating, alive because of their sacrifice and close to wishing, at this moment that he was sleeping under the snow with them.

Hermione had taken his hand again and was gripping it tightly. He could not look at her, but returned the pressure, now taking deep, sharp gulps of night air, trying to steady himself, trying to regain control. He should have brought something to give them, and he had not thought of it, and every plant in the graveyard was leafless and frozen. But Hermione raised her wand, moved it in a circle through the air, and a wreath of Christmas roses blossomed before them. Harry caught it and laid it on his parents' grave.

As soon as he stood up he wanted to leave: He did not think he could stand another moment there. He put his arm around Hermione's shoulders, and she put hers around his waist, and they turned in silence and walked away through the snow....

And this one had me tearing up. This is probably like, the most touching H/Hr moment I've ever read. When I came to this, I fell in love with H/Hr all over again.

Here's the thing,H/G may look like James and Lily,but she's definitely NOT Lily in any sense of the word. JKR may have said H/Hr are platonic,but their bond goes deeper than whom they ended up with. I've read the passages everyone has been sending in about the good H/Hr moments in DH. No matter what anybody says,the H/Hr moments in the books are going to outshine everyother character interaction in the series. From what I'm gathering from everyone here who's read DH,is that when it comes to choice,Hermione settled for Ron as a safer path. Imagine how tragic H/Hr would have been if they had fallen for eachother. Voldemort would have used their love for eachother to destroy them and I think we'd be even angrier than we are now. Of course I know many of you have said you'd have rather seen Harry or Hermione for that matter,dead than with a Weasley. The Herons got their wish,but I don't think they'll be able to take away from us what we love about H/Hr. I haven't read the book yet,but is it specifically spelled out that R/Hr got married or is it just implied?The chapter is called "Ninteen Years Later" and we assume they got married as well,right?

With all the kids...yea...they should be married to each other......

But on an evil hopeful note.....is it a happy marriage?....I mean....look at the last book, I still can't imagine Ginny has more importance to Harry than physical contacts....And I still can't find ANY reason why Ron and Hermione should be happy together....unless they are all drown in love potions

“Your mother confessed,” sneered Riddle-Harry, while Riddle Hermione jeered, “that she would have preferred me as a son, would be glad to exchange…”

“Who wouldn’t prefer him, what woman would take you, you are nothing, nothing, nothing to him,” crooned Riddle-Hermione, and she stretched like a snake and entwined herself around Riddle-Harry, wrapping him in a close embrace: Their lips met.

Reason : Because, if they aren’t evil and decide to leave the scene in, this would make for a Harry/Hermione onscreen kiss, in the movies. True, they wouldn’t be kissing as their in character characters, but still, it would be amazing none the less.

So she writes this and still equates chestmonster with twu luvv??? Sorry Jo, we don't need to reread to see the Obvious Anvils of OBHWFness, you need to reread your own series. Was this written to placate the delusional shippers who lurk in dark alleys?? Or did you write write this by accident, like all the H/Hr moments in book1-5?? Regardless, H/Hr still managed to sneak into the book where we have been stamped out. ######, they'd better put that one in the movie, as well as the Evil!H/Hr kiss...

The thing i find funny about that epilogue is besides the kids and the comment about 'the five Potters' I couldn't tell that either couple was married. We have no mention of Hermione Weasley or Ginny Potter, no mention of husband or wife in relation to them or any kind of interaction between the couples that tells you there are married

Actually that is a very good point. Did they actually mention that?

And has someone found out the reason as to why Hermione and Harry were not talking in the epilogue? What the heck happened to them?

i gotta say, i had almost forgotten about this...don't know if it was mentioned, but when hermione looks at harry during the wedding and beams at him. looooooved it.

loved the arm over the shoulder, around the waist scene.

and the leaning into the touch on the head

and when she says " oooh harry you taste better than...."::coughroncough::
bad, jamie, bad.

well, i prefer to stop it there.

There are H/Hr moments, little ones, everywhere. I just re-read a couple chapters and yeah, I see them now. Lol.

This isn't really H/Hr... but did anyone else's heart break in the scene where Harry heads off to meet Voldemort? Where he presses the snitch to his mouth and whispers, "I am about to die."? I started tearing up at that sentence.

Err... okay, how come I didn't remember this one? In which chapter/page is that?

My fave H/hr moment of DH, of course, the graveyard scene. Harry and Hermione stood before James and Lily's graves... it sounds so solemn. Then Harry put his arm around Hermione's shoulder and she put her arm around Harry's waist.

Ron followed them right? I wonder if he saw this scene....

*sigh* there's just too much emotional depth that Harry and Hermione shares. When Harry produce his first patronus, who was there to witnessed it? Hermione. When Harry first visited his parents graves, who was the only witness? Again, Hermione. Then there's time-travelling and saving sirius and buckbeak. Then there's the reveal-the-truth thing with Rita-skeeter. Then there's Gwarp. Then there's the one with Umbridge and the centaurs. There's just too much private memories between them.

Then why end it that way, JKR, whyyy??? Sheeeeshh...

But it was so emotional.. Ahhhhhh! Definitely a tearjerker.

Godric's Hollow was a beautiful chapter. Actually the chapters in which Ron were gone were excellent. They were intense and you saw the true H/Hr at work. The moment at James and Lily's graves had me tearing up. I said to myself, "And that's exactly why I ship H/Hr."

Jul 21 2007, 08:06 AM

the "taste better than" comment is during the seven potters when they are all drinking the polyjuice potion to become replicas of harry. she says something along the lines of " ooh harry you taste better than ----

WAIT, just checked it in my book, and it goes " ooh you look much tastier than crabbe and goyle, harry"

my bad.

it's ch.4, pg. 50 if you're interested.

dang, now i feel dumb. i'm such an ickle firstie!

I too especially loved the Godrics Hollow chapter, and really, really hope they keep the evil!HHR kiss in the films.

And I'm so happy Harry never told Ginny he loved her - phew. And it is quite funny that the only time Harry mentions loving someone aloud it's Hermione (but in a sister way, ######) - he mentions looking for the people he loves later on (RHG), but that's the only dialouge he has.

Jul 21 2007, 08:41 AM

I loved the chapter "Godric's Hollow" too. And I really liked the moments when Harry and Hermione's friendship shone through. And since my mind is dirty like that, when Hermione said that "Harry tasted much better...", I was like, o_O Hermione, how do you know?

HOLY WHOAH. i just finished the book like half an hour ago...

HOLY WHOAH JK's just blind!

I know I reread all the H/Hr moments in my head, not actually believing they were actually THERE. I pretty much thought it was just going to be more salt on the wound once I found out that Voldy ships Harmony. But they're sweet, tender moments.

that epilogue was RETARDED for lack of a better word. What happened to Luna? I mean sheesh if you're gonna give the kids lousy names and have almost NO interaction at all between the trio alone, ast LEAST mention what happened to our beloved Space Cadet!

hehe Molly cursed...I couldn't believe it, I had to reread 4 or 5 times.

The pat on the head...OOOOOOOOMG pleez let it be in the movie.

the evil kiss? PLEEEEEEEEEEEZ let it be in the movie. I just hope they don't look angry while they're doing it, y'know eyebrows all down with a "HA" look on their faces. that'd be...uncool.

Welp! I hope Emma can learn how to cry on cue before they start shooting this! Hermy's a wreck in this book. I think I'm gonna cry if they show her being torture. that was hard to READ frankly.

my fave H/Hr moment? the head pat. I couldn't believe it, like I said and reread a few times. *whew* it still makes me smile.

Yea....Potter IS really oblivious when it comes to girls......I remembered the times when just Ron and Hermione's conversation sparked him a half-page long discussion in his head about his friends' relationship...but when he saw a picture of himself and Hermione craws onto him and kiss him....nothing.

I don't think our ship has completely sunken at all. In fact I think the last book may have helped increased the numbers of H/Hr shippers. So in a twisted disturbing way, I was kinda glad that H/Hr didn't happen...it would be a shame for JKR to hack away such a beautiful bond with the sappy "romance" and lack of substance she tied with R/Hr.
Plus all the unresolved sexual tension is what H/Hr makes so exciting anyways.

Nice...that's kinda how I feel to Phoebe....actually if JK decided to make an eight book...I'd say it'd be on a love affair. LMAO. *whistles* Well it looks like one waiting to happen. I heard someone say in another poll, that she swears Voldy saw that kiss in Harry's head. So he did. ROFL. I think so too. Harry is truly in love with Hermione I think.

You know one of my favorite H/Hr moments of the book was when Hermione was cooking mushrooms and Ron just pushed them away. While Harry perserved and ate them sot that he wouldn't hurt her feelings.

Awe.

And I'm so happy Harry never told Ginny he loved her - phew. And it is quite funny that the only time Harry mentions loving someone aloud it's Hermione (but in a sister way, ######) - he mentions looking for the people he loves later on (RHG), but that's the only dialouge he has.

Could you post the bolded part please? I won't be reading the book, so I won't see it.

Thanks!

Sure. Page 695.

"... but he could not see any of the people he loved, no hint of Hermione, Ron, Ginny, or of the other Weasleys, no Luna."

So it's a vague declaration of love for a huge group of people, but it's there nonetheless.

I know Hermione is first because Ron and Ginny are paired with the Weasleys in this sentence, but... ehehe, I just love that her name is first! I didn't notice that at all during my read! Awww...

I doubt the unresolved sexual tension though.....perhaps there is at the beginning, and I'm rereading it to find when did it go away, I can't see any interactions between Harry and Hermione exclusively after the "oh-so-romantic" kiss in the middle of the battle....Or after the "sister" comment, for that matter.

Godric's Hollow was a beautiful chapter. Actually the chapters in which Ron were gone were excellent. They were intense and you saw the true H/Hr at work. The moment at James and Lily's graves had me tearing up. I said to myself, "And that's exactly why I ship H/Hr."

Beautiful scene. The image of them entwined (HAHAHA, TAKE THAT, JKR!) and walking away on one accord made me melt inside. Stupid cynical me had to remember the epilouge. Anyone up for giving it a name?

I disregarded that sister comment the second I saw it when the spoilers cropped up. Harry had to fight his brotherly feelings for Ginny before he realized how he, uh, felt ~~in his pants~~ about her. Even with that crapilogue, there is still a chance, in our lovely fanon, that Harry will start questioning those feelings regarding Hermione as well, lol.

*hugs fanon*

Anyway, I just wanted to thank you, Kinem, for posting that excerpt from chapter 16. I posted it in my LJ, and I keep rereading it, over and over again. If my brother hadn't grabbed my book as soon as I had finished it, I would be diving back in hunting for more moments.
