CV: actually, I think they both may go down. Lupin pulls a bloody
sword from the expiring Fenrir and then collapses with just enough
strength to make a final goodbye speech.

CV: (psst) Look at item #1 in my list (quoting):

1. A character everybody believes is dead will re-appear. In the
flesh. Not Dumbledore. 

(OK, I was hedging for points, but everybody KNOWS who I was talking
about.)

The Q-man may not actually make an appearance, but I'm certain that at
least part of my scenario will turn out to be true. Years ago, I
pegged Durmstrang as in occupied Norway (in 1945) with Grindelwald as
a Nazi wizard. Since then, there has been confirmation that Durmstrang
is in Norway (notice the quote niffler challenge from yesterday? Who
do you think sent the owl to Accio Quote alerting them to the
existence of that canon? Twas me.) Then JKR says that, yes, 1945 is
significant and yes, wizards participated in WWII. My theory has
played out correctly so far and gathered vindication all the way.

I firmly believe that Quirrell attended Durmstrang and met Victor Krum
there. Notice that both these guys mirror JKR at the time of their
books - Quirrell as the troubled victim of spousal abuse in PS/SS and
Krum as the international star in GoF.

I think Victor (The Victor) Krum represents Quirrell (and JKR) after
they have become victorious over abusive relationships. So, Victor, as
the reborn Quirrell, is positioned as the hero to ride to the rescue.
However, I still think that the Q-man himself will be on board, to
doubly emphasize JKR's victory over her situation.

CV: thank you. 

And look out for ESE!Pigwidgeon, too. There's something weird about
that bird.
