I've been having fun reading responses to the MAC (Most Annoying
Character) question and thought I'd toss out the other end of the
spectrum for comment. Is there a character you simply adore? one you
couldn't get enough of, right to the end?

I find it hard to pin down *most* beloved, myself.

At risk of being labeled a great big shallow, schmaltzy sap, it's
tempting to huff on my D'oH shield, polish it up to a glossy sheen,
and say, "Why, it's HARRY, of course!"  <SNIP>

Alla:

Yeah, baby.   You and me together. Of course Harry. I adored this kid 
since the moment he appeared on the page. First I wanted to hug him 
and make it all better for him at Dursleys, and then I cheered for 
him when he managed to escape in the new magical world and then my 
heart ached for him when he discovered the darkness of that world and 
the maniacal Voldy after him.

I was so happy when he found real friends and even happier when it 
looked that he may have a family with Sirius and all the more upset 
that it did not work out. OMG, I so desperately wished that he would 
survive and get a family at the end. YAY.

Second one is for sure Sirius – for being able to love after twelve 
years of Azkaban, for suffering those twelve years that he was not 
supposed to, for bravery, for loyalty, for his flaws too. Definitely 
Sirius.


Then it gets harder and harder to choose. I just realized that I 
still love SO MANY characters. Love Ron for his loyalty and bravery 
and humor and with all his insecurities. Love Hermione. Absolutely 
adore Arthur and all Weasley boys.

Like Ginny for the most part, like Molly more often than not 
(although certainly want to slap her as well).

Love Neville a lot, I think he was developed very nicely through 
series, even though I do tend to agree with Mike – I did not find 
standing up to your friends' part to be very impressive, LOL. It is 
not like they were going to kill him or anything. Big deal if you ask 
me . Now standing up to Malfoy part – oh yes, you are worth many 
Malfoys to me Neville. Neville growing up in one of the leaders of 
the resistance – supercool, loved very much.

I did like Moody a lot, found the mentioning of him bringing his 
enemies alive when he could to be one of the most impressive 
shorthand's characterizations ever.

I absolutely adore Fleur, and so so many others.

So this one is a definitely a tough call. I'm not sure I can choose
among those four, though I suspect Harry would probably win out if a
single choice had to be made.

Others care to play? :)

Alla:

Yeah, Harry and Sirius for me, but tough call indeed.
