One of the Weasleys - my money is on Fred or George.

Godric Gryffindor who is also the "old lion guy" - my belief is that 
the house animals (lion for Gryffindor) were the animagi/patronus 
animlas of the four founders. Since the animal reflects the person - 
it is highly likely that Godric Gryffindor was lion-like.

Something related to her eyes? We do know that there is something 
important about Lily's and Harry's eyes. I'm going with the 
reflection theory that has been posted here very recently.

New character. If it's the lion guy - then the lion guy can't be GG 
(or can he?). Which means that I'm necessarily wrong either in q. 1 
or 4. Oh well.

Ginny.

I was sure it would be Arthur - but we know that that's not so. 
Madame Bones, I think.

A Pensieve.

Yes.

> 9.	Will Neville take Advanced Potions? 

No.

> 10.	How many OWLs did Harry get? 

In all the subjects he tested for - potions, DADA, astronomy, 
divination, - I don't remember all of them. 


> Predictions (0-10 points each): 
 
1. Harry will go through a big emotional 

2. and moral crisis brought on by Sirius' death.

3. He will continue to blame Snape for Sirius dying

4. and be unable to fully accept his own part in what happened.

5. The lowest point of this crisis will be Harry casting an 
nforgivable curse on Snape.
