Book 6 questions

[naamagatus]

> 
> 1) Who do you think the HBP is?

The big, big question. If he's the person described in the HBP quote 
(the lion like person), then I'd say Godric Gryffindor.

> 
> 2) Is Snape a Vampire?

I take JKR's answer as an emphatic 'no'. 

> 
> 3) Are Sirius and Snape half brothers?

No. Since - if they knew of the relationship, it would have been 
mentioned. If the relationship exists without them knowing, it would 
make a horrible, soap-opera like scene. And anyway, Sirius is dead, 
wo what's the point (story wise)?

> 
> 4) Was Snape at Godric's Hollow?

Don't think so. No evidence for it. 

> 
> 5) Who will inherit the Black estate?

Harry.

> 
> 6) Where is Sirius's motorbike?

At Arthur's. Parts of it have been used to make the Ford Anglia fly.
> 
> 7) Who will be the new Minister of Magic?

No idea. I was of the Arthur Weasley camp, but that got a firm 'no' 
from JKR.

> 
> 8) Is Harry the heir of Gryffindor?

The whole blood thing is specificaly a Slytherin obsession. I don't 
think there is such a thing as heir of Gryffindor.

> 
> 9) Is Lupin good or evil?

Good.

> 
> 10) Will Percy reunite with his family?

Yes. But possibly only after his heroic death.
> 
> 11) Who will die in book six?

Could be Hagrid. Although I really, really don't want it to be him. 

> 
> 12) Will Petunia perform magic?

Didn't JKR squash that possiblitly?
> 
> 13) Is Snape good or evil?

He's on the Light side. Not quite clear whether he will remain there -
 particularly if DD dies.
