Kathy W:
A true leader, you are! I came upon later posts and went up-thread to
see how they were coded...so I did the same. It actually reminds me of
the "HP characters as chess pieces" thread that went into Wizard Chess.
Maybe what we'll need eventually is a metaphor section?
My second batch is done, pending the following:
Word on the siblings.
Quidditch: As already asked by Carolyn.
JKR-Personal: I've had a couple of posts that compare HP to JKR's
personal life. I don't really see a section for that except possibly
1.2.4. This particular set offers the idea that Dudley and Harry
represent JKR and her sister. (If that's the case, it's too much
information about her childhood for me!)
I came across another Snape as Cockroach theory. Blasted down by Amanda
Geist. But it was even before the exploding jar of cockroaches and
before my time. The poor soul who wrote the post can no longer be
found...hmm, just like LV's first reign. It was my one claim to "No one
has ever thought of this before".
Potioncat noticed that Miss Havisham has an odd smile on her face. "Is
that 200 posts this week, Dear?"
Potioncat hesitates. Something is amiss. Two hundred posts is very
impressive to Potioncat, but she's certain Miss Havisham is not the
least impressed.
Suddenly she understands, "Oh, no, Miss! Just because I've done 200
posts this week doesn't mean I can do 200 next week! You must
understand...Uh, I've got teenagers!... My air conditioner was broken
and coding was all I could do!...The dog looks sick..."
