Now Cacaia:
That is a very good point, about the sorting hat having mentioned
Slytherin to Harry because of the possibility of the latter being a
horcrux to Lord V. I haven't thought of that...and that kind of makes
sense, doesn't it, when one thinks of Harry's Parents? Were they both
not in Gryffindor? I know that doesn't really matter, but, seeing as
the Weasleys all got into Gryffindor, it's not that far fetched,
either?? I don't know...Good point, though! :-)
