Alice:
Yeah, well I really would like to say that the only reason I wish for 
hetero relationships in furute JKR books is that I find them easier 
to identify with. I have spent a lot of time with gay friends 
analysing ourselves silly, and trying to gain insight into the 
other's mind, but I still remain somewhat clueless on the issue, and 
would prefer JKR to introduce some new characters rather than bond 
the already existent ones into homo couples. (Incidentally, fanfic 
writers seem to be doing THAT job admirably.)
Tonks... yeah Tonks is a loony, actually I think more so than Luna. I 
have a pair of flashing pink bunny-ears that I sometimes wear even to 
university, so maybe it's rich coming from me... but hey. 
Maybe we'll get to see more of her in the future and she'll improve 
on me. In fact I'm dead sure we're gonna see lots of her, JKR can NOT 
have introduced a Metamorphmagus for nothing. 
Love, Alice
