"Who is your favourite character?
 
I love: Harry, Hermione, Ron, Hagrid, Dumbledore, Ginny, Fred, 
George and Lupin. I love writing (though would not necessarily 
want to meet) Snape. My favourite new character is Luna 
Lovegood."
 
 
 
Pippin:
By that reasoning, we could claim that she must love all her 
favorites because they are the epitome of goodness, since she put 
them in the same category as Dumbledore. I don't think  many people 
would accept that description applied to Fred and 
George!


Neri:
Well, Since she pointedly didn't include Snape in this list, would it
be acceptable reasoning to give Lupin a goodness mark slightly higher
than that of Snape, as a worst possible scenario?


Alla:

LOL, Neri! Pippin, I am honestly not being sarcastic,when I am 
saying it, but you can count me absolutely confused now too.

Didn't you say in your previous post that "liking", not "love" can 
be interpreted any number of ways?

This quote says that she "loves" Lupin , not likes, loves. Are you 
saying that it also can be interpreted any number of ways? I mean, 
sure, if she would say that she "loves to write him", I can see SOME 
ambiguity left open, but she not only says that she loves him she 
puts him on the same level as trio, Hagrid and Dumbledore.

I mean, you can always say that JKR lies to us and that POV is 
absolutely valid, but I just don't see it at all. Sorry!

By the way, as to Fred and George, I could never see them as NOT 
good guys, so their inclusion seems quite logical to me.


JMO,
