Imagine Harry's joy to discover that flying on a broomstick is something magical that he can do, not only naturally and well, but better than anyone else in the class. Compound this with the discovery that his father was also a talented flier, that he no longer has to attend flying classes with the Slytherins, that the school will be providing him with a top-quality broom for Quidditch matches—by dinner time, Harry could likely fly from sheer joy, without a broom.
 
Harry is also showing a growing independence by his tendency to break rules, almost from his first day at Hogwarts, as demonstrated by his ignoring Madam Hooch's command at the flying lesson that all students remain on the ground during her brief absence. Harry also sneaks out after curfew to meet Draco for their duel. This rule-breaking attitude may partially stem from his disdain for the Dursleys, who have constantly abused their authority to torment and unfairly punish Harry when he does nothing wrong while Dudley is continually spoiled. And though Harry's nature is showing a certain disregard for authority, it is never motivated by rebellion or to engage in mischief; he instead feels justified if he believes his actions serve some noble purpose, such as retrieving Neville's Remembrall or upholding his honor by dueling Draco. It did appear that Harry was about to be reprimanded by McGonagall, but she instead rewards his actions by recruiting him for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Ron also breaks the rules, but it is usually to follow Harry's lead rather than by his own initiative. In contrast, Hermione, to Harry and Ron's continued annoyance, is the boys' polar opposite, memorizing and obeying every rule, though rarely questioning the logic behind them. However, she rarely interfers with the boys' activities, and her curiosity will often promptscompel her to trail along.
 
The Wizards' duel, which may appear somewhat arbitrary, is a natural progression and says much about Harry's, Ron's, and Draco's characters; Draco has been humiliated, and therefore must have his revenge. And for Draco, betraying Harry (and, peripherally, Ron) to Filch would be as satisfying as defeating him, if he could, in a duel, and he is more likely to succeed in this endeavor. It also lessens the risk he will be further humiliated – what if Harry actually beat him in a duel? Draco's cowardice is also glimpsed here, and it later lands him in more trouble than he can imagine. Unlike Draco, Harry shows courage and integrity by honoring his agreement to meet Draco at the appointed time. Ron also shows bravery and loyalty by offering to act as Harry's second. Not even Hermione's bossy threats will stop either boy from going, and, after getting herself locked out of Gryffindor, she instead resigns herself to tagging along, ostensibly to oversee their actions, but likely curious as well. Hermione's obsession with rules, and her threats to report the two boys, seem more bluff than actual substance, showing that she may be more concerned with how her peers perceive her than in supporting authority. Regardless, neither Harry or Ron want her there, though her presence proves to be beneficial.
