Oh no, I don't think he'll go to Azkaban. On the other hand- he *is* 
a boy with a strong will and he'd surely visit the prison if Sirius 
is (*hides her face*)getting caught again, of that I am sure. 
Thinking about it, Black might as well get caught, now that he has to 
work for Dumbledore and more people knows about his whereabouts. But 
sending Harry to Azkaban would be pretty unlike JKR- it is a book if 
not completely so at least partly for children after all.

I like that too. Remember the scene in GoF when Harry hear Neville 
sob in the dead of the night? I always found that scene to annoying 
since it never got cleared up. I had expected Harry to talk to 
Neville about this, but instead it became one of the loose endings I 
do not like. We need to see Neville strengthen up a bit in the future 
and he would probably be best off with Harry and his friends. 
Anyone else who'd just love to see little clumsy Longbottom getting a 
role of importance and power in the Last Fight with Voldemort? That 
would very much speak to my heart, I daresay.

who *is* new here and didn't know whether it was requested to post 
any kind of 'hi, i'm a newbie' message so she wasn't bothered. For 
your information I am 20 and Swedish, why I beg you to be tolerant 
about my English!
