"Which Room"  from Denise:
Just for something new, does anyone have any idea "which room" JKR is
referring to?
A: Go straight into a certain room, mentioned in book four which has 
certain
magical properties Harry hasn't discovered yet!

Me:

The first thing I thought of (mind, I read GOF a few months ago) was the Prefect's bathroom.  I then had visions of the tub/pool with undiscovered magical features...perhaps with jacuzzi jets frothing up whatever foamy substance the bather chose.  Maybe the pictures turn into "movie screens" for the bather's viewing pleasure (more than just the regular wizard picture).  Or even better, the walls change into whatever scene you wish (with corresponding sound effects), ala Star Trek's Holo-deck.  And perhaps with the right magical phrase a "Cabana Boy or GIrl" (depending on preference) brings the bather yummy fruit smoothies and other munchies.  

Wait a second...that's *my* dream room.  Probably JKR's favorite is the chamber-pot room or the vanishing room (are they the same room?  I know, I know, "Go get your book and look, Lilac."  

"Redeeming Draco" from Kathy:
And remembering back to my school days - the boys 
were always attacking girls they liked..so Hermione just may be 
someone that Draco admires, only being of such low birth (according 
to his own heritage)he cannot afford to like her...so he calls her 
names so she won't even be a temptation.

Me:

Whenever I read something about a H/D ship, I get the awful picture of that really evil Nazi guy from Schindler's List, who is attracted to his Jewish maid.  Not your most healthy relationship, but I think a very true parallel to a possible H/D ship.  IMO, Draco can like Hermione all he wants, he would just have to make some major 180 degree changes for her to ever consider that she might possibly like him.  Also imo, Draco has some emotional baggage that would rival Snape's anyday.  Imagine the kind of home-life Draco must have. <shudders at the thought>  

Lilac =)

( I would choose a "Cabana Boy" who is buff and tan, and has black hair, geen eyes, and glasses.. otoh a tall, redheaded and freckle-y "CB" would be nice too...<giggles like a 14-yr-old>)
