"Perhaps it only mattered that he was a pure-blood wizard underneath 
the werewolf-ness. Certainly being a 'half-blood' because of being 
bitten by a werewolf is not as bad as being *born* one (at least in 
the eyes of those who care about things like that)."


DuffyPoo:

You really do have to quit challenging my brain this early in the morning.  And if I open that Lexicon once more today I think it will be a world record.  According to a WBD chat (or interview or something) Lupin is a half-blood wizard (there's a Muggle in that there background somewhere).


HunterGreen:
Now if Lupin *lied*, then it doesn't matter if Durmstrang cares about 
werewolves-as-teachers or not, because they wouldn't know about it, 
now would they? (of course, I wonder how on earth he would hide it)


DuffyPoo:

See, it's too early.  I meant Lupin lied about being a pure-blood (vice half-blood) wizard, not that he lied about being a werewolf.  That would be hard to hide.  Unless that Durmstrang lot are thicker than Crabbe and Goyle put together.
