Kethryn now -

I hope the three of you have room on the "immature" bench cause I am joining
you (look, we can play Spades now).  I do not want any of the primary trio
to die, the secondary trio...well, I nominate Luna (who is just too over the
top for me).  I honestly want Harry, Hermione, and Ron to live happily ever
after ~ shadowed by nightmares, sure, but not dead, dismembered, diminished,
desouled...or any other foul thing you can think of.  Maybe that isn't very
realistic but, hell, it's a fantasy novel for crying out loud.  If I wanted
reality, I would read a newspaper.  Besides we already saw the whole death
at the end of the story line with LoTR (and I cry buckets every single time
I see that scene at the end) and I honestly don't think that it can be done
better at this point.  Then again, we also saw the live happily ever after
with Star Wars (the original 3 not those horrid atrocities Lucas is
currently fosting off on us) so that has been done as well.  I think that
JKR can write it better so I am pushing for that ending.

If the whole series ends up being a dream/drug sequence and it never
happened, I will be furious.  Absolutely coldly furious...Snape won't have a
single thing on me at that point.

I would love to find out exactly what happened at Godric's Hollow and I want
that Pensive scene explained (which I personally think that JKR must explain
it, there was too much going on for the half assed explanation we got from
Remus and Sirius for that to be it).  I really want JKR to find a way to
explain that scene without making James into a jerk off bully and Snape into
a looser.  I want the patterns of behavoir that set up the whole scene...so
I guess I want the prestory but I will settle for a decent explanation.  I
would really hate it if JKR left that pensive scene alone after OoTP...

I would hate it if all the questions (as in major plot points) were not
answered.

I would hate it if none of the Weasley's died...I know I said that this was
fantasy but not killing one of them off would stretch the believability of
the story for me just a shade too far...there are way too many of them and
they are all too close to Harry not to have one of them bite the bullet.

If Harry looses his powers, count me infuriated.  I mean, honestly, wth
would be the point in that?

If Bellatrix kills Neville...

That's all for now, I better stop.

Kethryn who is starting to make herself angry at the thought of some of what
she has mentioned.
