This is the place where I get all mushy and post all my favorite R/H quotes. I will *try* to narrow them down, but I have a *LOT* more than I am posting.
Harry Potter & the Philosopher's Stone
Um, there aren't exactly an abundance of R/H quotes in this book, plus, I wasn't really reading for them when I did re-read it. Sorry! Perhaps when I read it again I will pick out some quotes. (Got any from PS? Feel free to send 'em my way. :)
Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets
Harry knew at once that Malfoy had said something really bad because there was an instant uproad at his words... Ron plunged his hand into his robes, pulled out his wand, yelling, "You'll pay for that once, Malfoy!" and pointed it furiously under Flint's arm at Malfoy's face. A loud bang echoed around the stadium and a jet of green light shot out of the wrong end of Ron's wand, hitting him in the stomach and sending him relling backward onto the grass. "Ron! Ron! Are you all right?" squealed Hermione.
"I bet it's a matter of time before one of them's killed this time.. I hope it's Granger," Malfoy said with relish. Ron was clenching Crabbe's gigantic fists. Feeling that it would be a bit of a give away if Ron punched Malfoy, Harry shot him a warning look...
"Bet you five Galleons the next Mudblood dies. Pity it wasn't Granger-" The bell rang at that moment, which was lucky; at Malfoy's last words, Ron had leapt off his stool, and in the scramble to collect bags and books, his attempts to reach Malfoy went unnoticed. "Let me at him," Ron growled as Harry and Dean hung onto his arms. "I don't care, I don't need my wand, I'm going to kill him with my bare hands-"
Harry scrawled to Ron: Let's do it tonight. Ron read the message, swallowed hard, and looked sideways at the empty seat usually filled by Hermione. The sight seemed to stiffen his resolve, and he nodded.
"Tonight, we will be able to revive those people who have been petrified.." There was an explosion of cheering... Ron was looking happier than he'd looked in days.
"Wonder if she did see the attacker, though?" said Ron, looking sadly at Hermione's rigid face.
"You will find that Madam Pomfrey is still awake. She's just giving out Mandrake juice - I daresay the basilisk's victims will be waking up at any moment."
"So Hermione's okay!" said Ron brightly.
Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban
"Mum and dad gave me some money to get myself an early birthday present."
"How about a nice book?" said Ron innocently.
It was dusk, and Ron and Hermione had just turned up in the common room, pink-faced from the cold wind and looking as though they'd had the time of their lives.
"There'll be an appeal, though, there always is. Only I can't see any hope. Nothing will have changed," said Hermione.
"Yeah, it will," said Ron fiercely. "You won't have to do all the work alone this time, Hermione. I'll help." "Oh, Ron!" Hermione flung her arms around Ron's neck and broke down completely. Ron, looking quite terrified, patted her head very awkwardly. Finally, Hermione drew away. "Ron, I'm really, really sorry about Scabbers..." she sobbed. "Oh - well - he was old," said Ron, looking thoroughly relieved that she had let go of him. "And he was a bit useless."
[incident with Malfoy insulting Hagrid followed by Hermione slapping him] "Hermione!" said Ron again, sounding both stunned and impressed.
"We're due in charms," said Ron, still goggling at Hermione.
Harry and Ron had started to get slightly worried. "You don't think Malfoy did something to her?" said Ron anxiously.
Ron had taken over responsibility for Buckbeak's appeal. When he wasn't doing his own work, he was pouring over enormously thick volumes.. He was so absorbed, he even forgot to be horrible to Crookshanks.
"Hermione, I don't know what's gotten into you lately!" said Ron, astounded. "First you hit Malfoy, then you walk out on Professor Trelawny-"
Hermione looked rather flattered.
Seconds later, Hermione slithered down beside him. "Where's Ron?" she whispered in a terrified voice.
Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire
"If you think they can't spot a Mudblood, stay where you are," said Malfoy. "You watch your mouth!" shouted Ron. "Never mind, Ron," said Hermione quickly, seizing Ron's arm to restrain him as he took a step toward Malfoy.
"Let's just keep moving, shall we?" said Ron, and Harry saw him glance edgily at Hermione. Perhaps there was truth in what Malfoy said, perhaps she was in more danger than they were.
"Those poor Muggles, though," said Hermione nervously. "What if they can't get them down?" "They will," said Ron reassuringly. "They'll find a way."
"Ron," said Hermione in an I-don't-think-you're-being-very-sensitive sort of voice.
Ron got to his feet and slammed the sliding compartment door so hard behind them that the glass shattered. "Ron!" said Hermione reproachfully, and she pulled out her wand, muttered, "Reparo!" and the glass shards flew back into a single pane and back into the door. "Well... making it look like he knows everything and we don't..." Ron snarled. "Dad could've got a promotion any time... he just likes it where he is..." "Of course he does," said Hermione quietly. "Don't let Malfoy get to you, Ron-" "Him! Get to me!? As if!" said Ron, picking up one of the remaining Cauldron Cakes and squashing it to a pulp.
"You're eating again, I notice," said Ron, watching Hermione adding liberal amounts of jam to her toast too. "I've decided there are better ways of making a stand about elf right," said Hermione haughtily. "Yeah... and you were hungry," said Ron, grinning.
"Well, at least the skrewts are small," said Ron as they made their way back up to the castle. "They are now," said Hermione, "but once Hagrid's found out what they eat, I expect they'll be 6 feet long." "Well, that won't matter if they turn out to cure seasickness or something, will it?" said Ron, grinning slyly at her.
"Hello," Hermione said, "I've just finished!" "So have I!" said Ron triumphantly, throwing down his quill. Hermione sat down, laid the things she was carrying in an empty armchair, and pulled Ron's predictions toward her. "Not going to have a very good month, are you?" she said sardonically. "Ah well, at lesat I'm forewarned," Ron yawned. "You seem to be drowning twice," said Hermione. "Oh am I?" said Ron. "I'd better change one of them to getting trampled by a rampaging hippogriff." "Don't you think it's a bit obvious you've made these up?" said Hermione. "How dare you1" said Ron, in mock outrage. "We've been working like house-elves here!" Hermione raised her eyebrows. "It's just an expression," he said hastily.
"Drop it," said Ron sharply to Hermione as she opened her mouth to argue some more, and for once, Hermione heeded him.
"You only like him because he's handsome," said Ron scathingly. "Excuse me, I don't like people just because they're handsome!" said Hermione indignantly. Ron gave a loud false cough, which sounded oddly like 'Lockhart!'"
"What's that?" said Ron. "Bouillabaisse," said Hermione. "Bless you," said Ron. "It's French," said Hermione, "I had it on holiday summer before last. It's very nice." "I'll take your word for it," said Ron.
"She's a veela!" he said hoarsely to Harry. "Of course she isn't!" said Hermione tartly. "I don't see anyone else gaping at her like an idiot!" "I'm telling you, that's not a normal girl!" said Ron, leaning sideways. "They don't make them like that at Hogwarts!" "When you've both put your eyes back in," said Hermione briskly.
"Oh Harry, isn't it obvious?" Hermione said despairingly. "He's jealous! It's always you who gets all the attention, you know it is. I know it's not your fault. I know you don't ask for it... but - well - you know, Ron's got all those brothers to compete against at home, and you're his best friend, and you're really famous - he's always shunted to one side whenever people see you, and he puts up with it, and he never mentions it, but I suppose this is just one time too many..."
Hermione, whimpering in panic, was clutching her mouth. "Hermione!" Ron had hurried forward to see what was wrong with her; Harry turned and saw Ron dragging Hermione's hand away from her face. "Malfoy got Hermione!" Ron said. "Look!" He forced Hermione to show Snape her teeth. Snape looked coldly at her and said, "I see no difference." She let out a whimper; her eyes filled with tears, she turned on her heel and ran, all the way up the corridor and out of sight.
It was lucky, perhaps, that both Harry and Ron started shouting at Snape at the same time; for in the confused din, it was impossible for him to hear exactly waht they were calling him. He got the gist, however.
"What about Ron, though?" Harry said. "Don't you want to go with him?" "Oh... well..." Hermione went slightly pink.
[incident with Ron and Harry making up after the First Task] Hermione burst into tears. "There's nothing to cry about!" Harry told her, bewildered. "You two are so stupid!" she shouted, stamping her foot on the ground, tears splashing down her front. Then, before either of them could stop her, she had given both of them a hug and dashed away, now positively howling. "Barking mad," said Ron, shaking his head.
"Harry's got a long way to go before he finishes this tournament," Hermione said seriously. "If that was the first task, I hate to think what's coming next."
"Right little ray of sunshing, aren't you?" said Ron.
"Just as long as he didn't import those skrewts illegally or anything," said Hermione desperately. "Hagrid's been in loads of trouble before, and Dumbledore's never sacked him," said Ron consolingly.
More coming soon! I promise!
