Me, I totally agree with you!  Not only is he intelligent and 
knowledgeable--things that I totally adore with some guys--he's also 
very kind to those who are often trod apon by others (eg. Neville). 
And I guess I also feel sympathy (not pity since I know he also has 
strength to get through almost anything) for him...Not that I turn 
into a blood-thirsty monster every month but I have this thing about 
hiding what I feel--well sometimes--ok a lot of times.  He would be 
my perfect date--if he wasn't more than double my age--but if he was 
the same as he was when he was in Hogwarts and I was there too, I'd 
be a VERY happy person.

Yeah is there any out there? Hello? I'd gladly empty out half my 
Gringott's account for that

Now there is also another question on 3 favorite and 3 least favorite 
characters...Now I racked my brain the whole day...never really even 
got through today's posts yet but I do want to get them down.
I love a bunch of characters so I have more than one in each rank:

1st place: Harry (we spend so much time with him in all the books, I 
couldn't help liking him), Remus (hey I said I wished to date him--or 
his younger self--if I was at Hogwarts in the MWPP times), Sirius 
(the "lovable stray" :)), and Dumbledore.

2nd place: Hermione, Ron, Fred and George
3rd place: Hagrid, Arthur Weasley

I don't have many characters I dislike but here they are anyways my 3 
least favorite are:

1st place: Lucius Malfoy (too evil for my liking--and he's a horrible 
example for Draco--me I feel neutral for Draco-Draco never did 
anything TRULY evil yet)
2nd place: Gilderoy Lockhart (IMHO he is really annoying)
3rd place: Peter Pettigrew (there's some things that I dislike and I 
particularly dislike traitors--but I guess he still has a chance to 
redeem himself)

The person who is most likely to be my best friend in the book would 
either be Lupin or Hermione because I could understand both of them--
and they could probably understand me too (wishful thinking, wishful 
thinking).

Remus)
