there any instance of an unsusual disturbance that might indicate 
clumsy tonks is tailing harry? What role do you think she will play

   Yes, I have a speculation.  Shortly before I read this post, I was 
browsing through the Severus Snape section of Fantastic Posts, and I 
came across this question and quote:


Q. Will Snape fall in love in the series?

A. As originally quoted by Bonnie (3513), JKR was asked this question 
in a radio interview and gave a tantalizingly evasive answer:

Interviewer: One of our -- one of our Internet correspondents 
wondered if Snape is going to fall in love. 

Rowling (laughing): Yeah ... who on earth would want Snape in love 
with them? That is a very horrible idea....whoever asked that 
question, can I just say to you that I'm -- I'm slightly stunned that 
you've said that, and you'll find out why I'm so stunned if you read 
Book Seven. And that's all I'm going to say.

(end quote)


  I see Snape falling in love with Tonks, and Tonks absolutely hating 
it, having no interest in Snape at all, at least at first.  

Or am I just crazy? What do you guys think?
