Hello all. Hopefully I'm not rehashing something that's been covered 
a million times already, but I wanted to ask opinions because this is 
a topic that really interests me.

Does anyone think that Percy will redeem himself after his disgusting 
behavior towards his family in the last book? I would love to see him 
have a redemption scene. I don't think Percy is bad, rather very pig 
headed and extremely misguided. Possibly even naieve, too. I really 
don't think he's a bad guy deep down, and I would like to be proven 
right. That, and I've always been such a sucker for bad-guy-turned-
good type characters! However, I think it would be fitting if Percy's 
redemption came at a price, prehaps to show the readers the true 
errors of his ways. I've been reading other forum's, and a lot of 
people seem to be into the idea of Percy dying to save his family as 
he finally realises his wrong doings. As someone who enjoys the drama 
and misery that comes with character deaths, I have to say that I 
love the idea. To me it seems fitting, and the Weasley clan are so 
large in numbers I don't think all of them will make it through the 
series alive. 

What do you think? I'm interested to know your point of views. :)

Take care,
Charlie.
