Cactus certainly fits. Hermione actually calls him 'prickly' next chapter. (Or the one after that, still trying to figure out where the break falls...) (And admittedly only to herself, but still. (She doesn't tend to get openly insulting unless he tricks her into poisoning him or something. She's well mannered that way.))
Yeah, that's one of the things I really like about her, she's 150% and รผber correct about some things and then goes completely off the rails on others, and you have to figure both ends of her spectrum are perfectly designed to drive him nuts. And I'm sure he needs something nice and untidy and domestic to worry about to take his mind off of everything else... ๐
