skull_bearer1. Are you going to look at every possible spoiler you can before the book comes out? Did you with HBP and how accurate were the ones you saw?
I didn't in HBP, but I will now, I want to know what I'll be letting myself in for.
2. What will you do if Amazon (or whatever other online bookstore you use) doesn't deliver your copy on time, and everyone is reading it except you?
I'm planning to get the seventh book the same way I got the other six, in a bookshop on the day in comes out.
3. Will you read the last chapter before anything else? Are you planning to read the book all in one go or are you a slow reader?
I read fast, so I won't bother, I'll get there soon enough.
4. What’s your theory on the meaning of “Deathly Hallows?”
I expect it's a place, but to be honest, I've been trying not to think about it. It's just such a bad title.
5. What’s the craziest Harry Potter theory you’ve got, which you could only share with your trusted f-list?
To be honest, after HBP, I don't think anything's too weird for this book.
6. If you could write in a sub-plot of your own choosing to the main Harry one, what would it be?
Voldemort and the Death Eaters wil actually have a decent reason for their actions, and/or do something selfless that will cause all he good guys (and most of the fandom) to implode.
7. Who do you think will die in the book, and who would you be most upset to see die, even if you don’t think it’s likely?
All the Death Eaters (I think Harry swearing to take as many with him as he could is going to be fulfilled). Voldemort (*sniff*). Peter (no bets). Ans hopefully Harry Potter.
8. Name three main (ish) characters who you think will definitely live and why. Is there a very minor character(s) you really want to have a happy ending?
Neville (I hope so). Draco (I suspect). Luna (I like her).
9. If you don’t like the book, or are bitterly disappointed by it, do you think you’ll still stay in the fandom?
Been there, done that. Left the fandom already.
10. One word (or concise) answers only!
What's fun without a good rant?
# Snape: good, evil, own agenda?
I really don't know. On one hand, I suspect he'll be good. On the other, I'd like him be EVOL!!111 just to watch the fandon explosion. But I think him having his own agenda would be the best- and thus, least likely to happen.
# Bill: will he help Remus or just be on permanent honeymoon?
I wasn't aware Bill cares what happens to Remus, I think we'll see him once and then vanish- thus making him the smartest character in the series,
# Peter: a Gryffindor moment or not?
I hope so, but I'm starting to doubt it.
# Harry: Is he a Horcrux?
Again, I hope so. If only because he'll almost certainly die.
# The Weasleys: will they all survive?
Maybe Percy, but then, maybe not. I don't think anyone JKR likes will die.
# If no to the above: who won’t?
Percy because he won't be missed. I like Percy so I've been bracing myself for this.
# Did Snape love Lily?:
Dear stars, I hope not. That's as cliched as... Harry/Ginny. Damn.
# Hogwarts: will they go back to school or not?
No, and I fear what that'll mean.
# Remus and Tonks: will they get married in the book?
Yeah, and it'll be as PASTEDONYAY!!! as the romance was in HBP.
# Bellatrix: who will be her nemesis? Neville. I don't know what I feel about that, since I like them both.
# The new leader of the OotP is …? There won't be one since they're all mourning for almightly Dumbledore. Gag me with a shrubbery.
# Percy: will he see the error of his ways or not?
I don't know. And I don't know which idea I hate more; that he'll abase himself and be forgiven. Or that he won't and will probably die.
11. If Harry could take just one adult Order of the Phoenix member with him on the search for Horcruxes, who should it be and why?
Snape. But that won't happen in a month of blue moons.
12. Will Remus and Greyback have a confrontation in human or werewolf form? Will Tonks be involved? Who will the other werewolves support?
I doubt it. In fact, I don't think we'll be seeing much of Remus in this book, since we haven't been seeing him much in previous ones
13. What person from Harry's year (aside from Harry, Ron or Hermione) do you think will become a Hogwarts teacher? What subject will he or she teach?
Neville maybe, herbology of course.
14. Do you think Harry will observe Remus looking less lined and walking with a little more of a spring in his step? If so, do you think he'll attribute it to Tonks, and if he does, will he blush?
Probably. And I will vomit on my copy.
15. Will Ginny use, "But Professor Lupin saw the futility of being a noble prat!" for one of her million arguments with Harry about why they should be together? Do you think they’ll get back together at all?
No, because she understands that Her Man must go alone. Because she's spunky and tough like that.
16. Which house do you think Tonks is in, and why? Is she going to morph into someone important and who will it be?
Gryffindor. Of course! *JKR voice*
17. Who will be revealed to be the heir of Gryffindor?
If it's Harry, I may just stop reading in disgust.
18. JKR has promised that the final chapter will be like an epilogue. How do you think the final paragraph will read? Should it be dedicated to Remus's future? Tonks'? Another character's? Who do you want the last paragraph of the epilogue to be about?
Oh dear God *headdesk*, now Harry really must die because I can't stant to imagine what his epilogue would be like.
19. Which question from the books would it annoy you most not to have answered?
The whole magical creatures thing.
20. What do you think the last line of the book is?
I don't know, I don't care. Oh, okay "Rocks fall, everyone dies, and all that's left of them on the earth is a scar."
I didn't in HBP, but I will now, I want to know what I'll be letting myself in for.
2. What will you do if Amazon (or whatever other online bookstore you use) doesn't deliver your copy on time, and everyone is reading it except you?
