The Phoenix Files #11: Luna Lovegood
But Luna has a great mind–she’s not in Ravenclaw for nothing! She even puts that mind to practical use toward the end of Book Five. “Well, we’ll have to fly, won’t we?” “I thought we’d settled that? We’re flying!” Luna recalls that thestrals are good at finding places their riders are looking for. Notice Hermione didn’t come up with the plan (probably because she can’t see them); is it possible Luna could be another practical thinker in the new Harry group?
