Tonks may be even Moody wasn't able to remain entirely in one piece
and fell victim to Crouch Jr. It would just be too dangerous to marry
a Werewolf (Lupin knows it).
Alla:
Well, what can I say ? The relationship did jump on me pretty much
out of nowhere, but I think that this is where the argument that
Harry does not see everything can work well to explain "out of
nowhere part". I don't see any more than usual difficulties because
Tonks is an auror and Remus is werewolf. He is pretty much not
dangerous when he drinks a potion and she has a dangerous job, but
many people have dangerous jobs and many people have chronic
illnesses. Relationships are difficult in general, I don't see theirs
necessarily as more difficult than many others. IMO of course.
Personally, I would much more preferred Remus to be in relationship
with Sirius, but for some reason I remember well a phrase at one of
the discussions table at Witching Hour symposium. "JKR gave Remus a
love interest in order for him to have a reason to stay alive". I
happen to agree with it. I mean one would hope that Harry was at
least part of such reason too. We shall see.
LD again: Lupin and Sirius as a couple would have been a fun twist IMO. Who will make Lupin's "complex" potion now that Snape is MIA?
Also what if LV finds a way to use Tonks to get to Lupin. That is the whole reason Harry set his relationship with Ginny aside for the time being. I think any new open relationship right now could be detrimental to one of the parties, particularly when one has a hairy little problem and his aid is no longer available.

Alla:
Heeee. Why not? You don't want Harry to stay kids or you just want
him to have that many? :-)
LD again: I'm an Early Childhood Educator. The thought of 12 kids 24/7 is very daunting. I would really like to see Harry be able to travel and enjoy the world after years living in a cupboard under the stairs and a dorm with 4 other boys. Hard to do with 12 kids.

Alla:
Snort. What if at some point in time JKR will write on her website in
Rumors section or FAQ section something to the effect.
"Dumbledore is dead and AK killed him". Would you believe it then?
LD again: Frankly I don't take anything on her site at face value just yet. I'm sure something she has told us will be a trick; either Sirius or DD or Regulus is really alive or there are more horcruxes than we know, or Neville is really "The one". I don't know if I'm an Optimist or a Pessimist, but I keep expecting a surprise.
Alla:
Couple more predictions from me, I think I read everybody else's, but
I may have missed something, so forgive me if I by accident repeat
somebody else's prediction:
Harry will return to Hogwarts, but will be leaving it often to go
hunting just as Dumbledore did.
Luckdragon: Totally thinking the same thing here. Hogwarts will be home base, the Library and teachers will be Harry's resources, Students, ghosts, portraits and Elves will aid Harry as well. There may even be a horcrux lurking on the grounds.
Alla:
One of the possible endings for dear Voldemort I can think of ( that
was not said in this thread, but I may have seen it earlier or
discussed it with somebody) would be Voldemort turning into a baby
at the end and Harry taking a pity on him and not killing him for
that reason ( have no clue who would take care of this "baby" after
all though maybe St.Mungo?). It is not my favorite one by all
means, but I keep thinking about "baby face" DE at the MoM battle and
Hermione's "we cannot hurt a baby" ( paraphrase, but I think
essentially correct one) and I can see this kind of end.
Luckdragon: Interesting experiment. Nurture vs. nature. Put baby Tom in a loving home and see if things turn out differently. Would the magic world dare chance it.
