Oooooooohhh.. the fanfic possibilities!

I suspect that if Harry had a Godmother, and I think he would have, 
she would be someone from James and Lily's circle of peers. I would 
expect that if Sirius had a significant other, she would be the 
logical choice. 

Sirius was James's best friend from school. Who was Lily's best 
friend? That would be the next logical choice, wouldn't it, if Sirius 
was resoutely single? 

Would it not be odd for her to have simply vanished? Perhaps she was 
kiled by V. Or perhaps she will appear later.

Or perhaps.... Harry has two Godfathers and everyone is being rather 
discreet about this, since it is after all a children's book. *smirk*

Or perhaps the Potters defied convention and gave Harry only one 
Godfather. But how odd that would be!
