1) I wish Rowling didn't have them so at each other's throats in HBP, but it still is a good example of a ship developed over a period of time 2) The end of HBP, when we're told that Ron is brushing the tears from Hermione's face at Dumbledore's funeral. 3) I really don't have one. (Sadly it's been too long since I've read good HP fanfiction ^^; ) 4) When Ron is an evil wifebeater and Hermione is all chickified and needs Harry to save poor her >( 5) Ron is not a brainless slob and Hermione is not a saint, dammit! 6) As much as Harmonians have made me bristle at Harry/Hermione, I'm not against it if it's done well. As for Ron...I can't think of any character specifically. ^^; I might say Luna, but that would be more of a platonic pairing 7) During the books, both are devoted to helping Harry fight Voldemort, putting their lives and their families at risk. After the books, they'd have to get their lives between their careers and families sorted (both have very important and no doubt time-consuming jobs, after all) 8) Kids, of course! 9) Hermione is dominant XD 10) http://nami86.deviantart.com/art/HP-Ron-and-Hermione-76021407?q=boost%3Apopular%20Hermione%20and%20Ron&qo=5
II. Little details:
1) Hermione is the big spoon, Ron is the little spoon 2) During the books, visiting Hogsmeade. After the books, I'd say getting together with their school friends 3) Ron 4) Hermione would get something like a bagel with cream cheese. Ron would get something filling, like a calzone 5) During the books, Ron wanting Hermione's help with homework so often. After the books, something like who fixes dinner that evening 6) Ron 7) Hermione 8) Ron 9) Ron 10) Hermione

Zuko/Mai
I. Fandom and meta:
1) I love that they're both emo teens who are able to support and express their love to each other, in spite of the stuff they've gone through. I also like that we see how they have to work through some serious issues to keep their relationship going, but that they pull through in the end. 2) Two separate instances. The first is the adorkable look Zuko gets when he tells the Gaang about Mai ("That gloomy girl who sighs a lot?"). The second is when Mai defies Azula (Miss Eviler-Than-The-Genocidal-Firelord) and tells her that she loves Zuko more than she fears Azula 3) Love, Family, and Treachery: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7142570/1/Love_Family_and_Treachery 4) Mai being turned evil and Zuko conveniently becoming a casanova obsessed with Katara (Yes, I'm looking at you, How I Became Yours! >( ) 5) I do not think that Mai is an underdeveloped character, nor do I find her annoying. In fact, I think she's very badass 6) Um, I really don't have one for Mai. For Zuko, I will go with Zuko/Katara, but like with Harry/Hermione, I do like it well-written. ^^; 7) Both are high up on the political ladders, meaning that they have to deal with public images, opponents, assassination plots, etc, not to mention Zuko rebuilding the Fire Nation. There's also the fact that they were on opposite sides during most of the show. 8) Kids, definitely 9) Mai’s better at being romantic than Zuko, so she picks up the slack XD 10) http://aliwildgoose.deviantart.com/art/Mai-Zuko-Against-All-Odds-89124970?q=boost%3Apopular%20Zuko%20and%20Mai&qo=176
II. Little details:
1) Mai would be the big spoon, Zuko would be the little spoon 2) Taking walks together 3) I guess Mai, if only because Zuko's a firebender and thus can have as much hot water as he wants XD 4) Ice cream, for both of them 5) When they can’t decide if they can get away with skipping an upper-crust Fire Nation party 6) Who does most of the cleaning 7) Zuko 8) Mai 9) Mai 10) Zuko
