There seems to be a lot discussion lately as to whether Harry and 
Slytherin are related.  But what if GG and SS are linked in some way. 
The sorting hat states that GG and SS were the best of friends. There 
is also a continuing theme of 'blood' in the HP books. Is there such 
a thing as blood brothers in the WW? If so, what would this mean for 
the participants? I think that maybe GG and SS were 'blood brothers' 
and that some pact was made between them during their friendship. 
This pact - sealed in blood - could then be passed down to future 
generations.  If it is Lily who is the descendant of GG then it could 
be that her counter-charm was all the more effective because of this 
link between GG and SS! Any thoughts??

Brother Fry (still convinved that Lily is the heir of Gryffindor)
