Mixed Bag of Questions...Please comment/answer/question to the best of your 
ability. :o)


1. Where are James & Lily buried?

2. Does the Polyjuice Potion work with a dead person's hair?

3. What if Harry used a switching spell and switched bodies with someone 
close to Voldemort? Like Wormtail? Would that fulfill Wormtail's life debt 
if he died in Wormtail's body? Would Harry's soul still be protected, 
waiting to be returned to his own body?

4. What if Harry was sorted into Slytherin? What would be different? Would 
anything be the same? ("I wish Harry Potter was never sorted into 
Gryffindor"?)

5. What if Charlie Weasley and Viktor Krum were friends? Isn't Bulgaria and 
Romania pretty close? Charlie's recruiting international members for the 
Order of the Phoenix and he's a former Quidditch great? Would Ron freak or 
what?

6. If Harry looked for friendship outside of the trio (say R/Hr were getting 
on Harry's nerves by fighting or were otherwise enganged), where would Harry 
go? Ginny, Luna, both or neither? Would Malfoy be an option (at least for a 
little while?)

7. Is Malfoy really friends with Crabbe and Goyle?

8. Is the Mirror of Erised a self-fulfilling prophecy?

9. We know Harry's protected (to some extent) @ Privet Drive and I assume 
The Burrow has some type of security enchantments, but what about Hermione? 
Isn't she vulnerable or does Dumbledore already have something set up for 
her? What about her parents? They are vulnerable. Will Death Eaters try to 
attack her at home? They know she is one of Harry's best friends.

10. Did McGonagell know Tom Riddle when she was at Hogwarts? I mean they are 
around the same age. Does she know that Tom Riddle is Voldemort? According 
to Dumbledore in CoS, it's not very common knowledge.

11. If Tom Riddle "ceased to be a memory", what would happen to the other 
present-day Voldemort? Does present-day Voldemort remember anything that 
happened in the CoS? Does he know about Ginny and the connection him and his 
alter-ego share?

12. When Voldie tried to kill Baby Harry, it backfired on him because of his 
Mother's protection. In GoF, when he uses Harry's blood to restore himself 
to his old body, he believes the same protection will now run through his 
veins, allowing him to hurt/kill Harry. When Harry tells Dumbledore about 
this, he has that gleam of triumph in his eyes. We know that the one thing 
Voldie wants more than even killing Harry is immortality. Well, it's never 
going to happen now. Because love is the thing that protected Harry, it now 
flows through his veins. And because he doesn't understand love, it will 
slowly eat away at him. Love is a very HUMAN quality. A very MORTAL quality. 
It makes him vulnerable. It WILL make him vulnerable. While he's able to 
hurt Harry, he's only going to be hurting himself. Comments?


13. Someone on the list already commented that Fudge may put his reputation 
on the line to get his "dear, old friend" Lucius out of Azkaban. Regardless, 
I think Lucius is going to kill Fudge and take over the Ministry by force. 
It won't matter if people believe he's a DE or not. It's not going to be the 
Ministry/Hogwarts VS Voldie & Co. It's just going to be Dumbledore's Army 
(everyone at Hogwarts/OotP) VS Voldie & Co. The Death Eaters and the 
Dementors will guard their new hangout. However, I think that Arthur Weasley 
will eventually kill Lucius and become the new Minister of Magic after the 
war ends. Comments?


14. Draco hasn't hit the "point of no return" yet. Lucius keeps him out of 
trouble for a reason and I don't think it's necessarily love. Lucius is 
grooming him to be a Death Eater. He'll be 16 (if he isn't already) in Book 
6. I believe he'll have to pass a test of loyalty. I think this test of 
loyalty is going to kill a Weasley. I think Draco may first go for Ginny, 
but he'll fail. However, he'll be the one who kills Percy (possibly 
redeemed?), who's already estranged from the Weasley family. Someone I know 
remarked that Draco is not even an enemy for Harry anymore, he's more of 
Ron's rival (who she described as a "living collage" of all his brothers). 
And because Percy and Ron share similiar physical characteristics, I believe 
that Draco will kill an extension of Ron and Hermione (who's also like 
Percy) will take his place in the Weasley family. This would set up a final 
Draco/Ron showdown, where Ron would ultimately succeed (mirroring the 
Arthur/Lucius showdown).

15. How cool would it be if Fred and George tricked Voldie into taking a 
fake wand or eating a canary cream? Imagine Voldie turning into a giant 
canary during his final encounter with Harry. ;o)
