Yeah, that sounds good. I guess he forgot we had Hogsmeade coming up, or else he probably would have told me I wasn't allowed to go.
I don't think it's that Harry doesn't regularly punish Granger, it's more that he doesn't maintain any sort of boundaries between them at all. He wants to believe she's his friend, but no matter how much he wants to believe that, she can't be. You can't make someone you own be your friend.
You know, I didn't even notice when she started calling him "Harry" and he started calling her "Hermione." I should have spoken up more then, but I reckon he would have said "you're right" and then gone on doing as he pleases, anyway, because it makes him feel better about owning her if he can call her by her given name and act like she's a normal person.
