è So, for the rest of you, who aren't all Draco-fans (and

è which HP characters do you think are  stereotypes and
è would you change that or not? For example, I really

è Crabbe and  Goyle. Which characters would you like to

Now Me ( Tonks):

Wow. I would love to see a slew of characters be more developed. I realise 
that our main focus is Harry; however, I would love to delve more into the past 
of our special friend Severus. We have seen just a twitch of time that has 
made him who he is. I want to see the childhood and experiences that led our 
dear, sexy Severus to be a DE and what circumstances led to him switching sides. I 
want to know why he feels it a right to play favouritism in his classroom and 
why he can be such a right ol' sexy git.  ( Long time fan of Snape despite 
his greasy hair).
 
I would love to see more of Lupin to understand ( to make reference to a post 
I made yesterday? or the day before) if his gentle and kind nature is borne 
out of being a werewolf or if this was his child disposition. 

Flitwick, our jolly fun professor, I would like to delve more into him as a 
character.

Basically, I would like to see more of what happened B.H. ( before Harry). We 
know it was dark times, but for me, at least, I would like to understand more 
about what nurtured our adult characters and exactly the wrath of Mouldy 
Voldy.
