Someone explain to this stupid high-schooler what a gynoid is, please?
Anyway...I'll go for choice b), just because I like Snape too much as a male to
pick e). Although, like Blaise, I've read Hyphen's 'Snape's Sister Serafina',
and would highly recommend it to anyone interested. No DADA post, but corsets
and Remus Lupin abound.

LOL.

On Shipping: I seem to be in a very distinct minority, as a Harry/Cho
shipper...mind you, after they've gotten to know each other better, mourned
Cedric, etc. Although I think it's perfectly plausible that Cedric and Cho were
just close friends, not together in a romantic sense...

By the way, hi everybody! It's me, Firebolt, back after a two-month-plus long
e-mail exile. Outlook Express crashed, and the volume of e-mails on this list
added to my slow computer meant that I couldn't read messages on-site. I'm now
officially lurking again, although I can't make the chat today because for me it
starts at 8 PM, and evenings on Christmas Eve are Family Time (especially since
it's my brother's birthday). Asking 'what did I miss?' would be a bit lacking in
intelligence on this list, so I'll just ask two questions:

1. How many of Peg Kerr's Seven Heavenly Virtue essays did I miss ;)? I read the
first two (Faith and something else?), but haven't seen the others.

2. What is the deal with the 9th edition of GoF and Priori Incantatem? From what
I gather, the text's been changed...

Other HP tidbits in my life include my now possessing PS in Japanese and Finnish
(plus getting GoF in French for Christmas), and the distinct possibility of my
doing my media portfolio (major grade in French) on Pottermania.

Merry Christmas!
