Ok, first I wanna clear something up. I doubt *very* much if Ron will die in the books. <snip> Plus, I think if she did ever kill any or all of the trio, she'd have hoards of angry fans on her doorstep *vbeg*

I have no ideas as to who J.K. will kill in future books. There's a part of me that can see how killing Ron or Hermione off would deepen the plot, maybe giving Harry the final. . .for lack of better word. . .boost to finish Voldemort off, but then the thought comes up that these books are originally intended for children. How would young 8 and 9 year olds react to Harry's best friends being killed? I don't know if J.K. would want to go down that path. But that's just me, trying to make sure my children lead sheltered lives for as long as I can shelter them. ^ ^ And I can just picture how some of those hoity-toity Christians-with-a-cause would react when hearing that those awful Harry Potter books have taken an even darker toll in corrupting our young ones. Heh heh. I'm not saying I would oppose J.K. killing off an important character, I'm just pondering what certain reactions will be when it happens.

But then, I can see J.K. going against the crowd and possibly killing them all off.
