Amy, now you've got me a little worried. We know that JKL never does
the obvious. That, and the evidence you provide that Lupin will
appear in Book 7, suggests that he is safe for now. (Whew!)
So who has a bulls-eye on his or her back? In the Derby, I don't
think anyone suggested Sirius would die. But aside from Harry,
Sirius is the character who faces the most "risk." He could die at
the hands of Voldemort, MoM, or a dementor. It also fits that it
would half-crucify JKR to write Sirius' demise (it would half-crucify
me, anyway), and it would satisfy Luke's theory that we can't just
have peripheral characters dying.
That means we need a Sirius club, and in a hurry, too. Acronyms,
anyone?
Cindy (who would sacrifice Ginny AND Neville to save Sirius)
