Regardless of Luna's reasons for wanting to try out for the team, Ron most of all felt relief – after being banned along with most other school activities during the Death Eater occupation last term, Quidditch's resurgence was a sign that Hogwarts was going to get back to feeling like Hogwarts again. Yet another sign that there was to be a return to normalcy had arrived by owl post a couple of days ago, addressed to his best girl. In spite of her parents, particularly her father's hesitance to let her spend time with Ron and his family, Hermione was somehow managing to split time between here and Hampstead just enough that half her mail was being forwarded to the Weasley abode.

Ron had rewarded his girl with a long kiss in congratulations for, against all odds, fulfilling a lifelong dream.
