K:  Yes, they really are a couple, and an adorable one.

K:  I think Snape has loved Lily and LV

K:  No.

K:  Yes.

K:  Yes, but not permenantly.


> 8) Is Harry's scar a horcrux?

K:  I hope not.   I think it is something like horcrux backwash.  
Basically, LV had already split his soul so much that when the AK 
backfired and almost killed him, some of his traits and talents 
rebounded into Harry.

OR:

Snape told Dumbledore that LV intended to make Harry a Horcrux and LV 
and Snape spent the Famous Missing 24 Hours destroying the Horcrux part 
of Harry already, thus leaving him with the scar.   This could also be 
the reason why DD trusts Snape.

K:  Cause he wasn't there.  My dogs aren't with me everywhere I go......

K:  Hagrid.

> 11) Will DD's portrait be able to help Harry?
>

K:  Yes.  If only for exposition's sake.


> 12) What role will McGongall play in book 7?
>

K:  Trying to hold Hogwarts together.

> 13) Will Harry go back to the Dursley's as he is supposed to?


K:  Yes.  He has to find out Petunia's secret.   I still think that the 
person she overheard telling Lily about the Dementors was Snape, NOT 
James.

> 14) Will the DA or OOTP reform to help Harry?
>

K: Yep.



> 15) Will Wormtail repay his lifedebt?

K:  Of course.  Maybe not intentionally, but he will.

>
> 16) Will the imprisoned Deatheaters escape from Azkaban?
>

K:  Of course.  Don't they always?  Besides, there has to be a showdown 
with Lucius.


> 17) Will Kreature hinder or aid Harry if he appears in book 7?
>

K:  Both, but any aid will be reluctant.


> 18) What is your take on Harry having "his mothers eyes"?

K:  We saw the significance already with Harry using the resemblance to 
lure Slughorn back to Hogwarts.

K:  I think that's the key to the Famous Missing 24 Hours.
