My *One* Most Rock-Solid OoP Prediction

No: HPFGUIDX 59674

Hmm, tricky subject this.

I do have one non-prediction.  Snape is not going to die.  JKR has 
said that the death in the next book will be "horrible to write" and 
the death of Snape, lets face it will be wonderful to write.  
Whethere you love or hate the potions master lets face it he is not 
going down with out a fight, and a fight in the wizarding world means 
blood, sweat, tears and plenty of trauma.

Wonderful.

But now for my bang-worthy prediction for OoP.  Well this ties 
together two predictions that have already been stated.

And really I could not agree more with you but I think the death of 
his little brother will not only turn Colin against Harry but the 
wizarding  world he is so in love with.

Which leads me to Eileens prediction:

>The obvious choice, if we're going to

>sad to say, expendable.

And I completly agree with this too.  But he will not die as a result 
of a choice of Harrys.  No.  He will kill himself.  But why I hear 
you cry!  What could Lupin possible do that would make him commit 
harri-karri.  Well ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Lupin is going 
to eat Denis Creevey.

And that is my big bang of Oop.
