Yeah, I agree Zara. I think that to decide what JKR was crying over, 
we have to figure out what *8she** can be crying over, not us.

Personally and that is just me, I think she was crying that her era 
of writing about Harry is over, that the story is done, etc.

Having said that, no matter how passionately I hate Snape and think 
that he is the biggest scam of the earth, I still will not exclude 
the possibility of her making **me** crying over his death as well.

Yeah, so far I think a miracle is needed to make me do it, but hey, 
she made me cry over Dumbledore's death, which I sooooo did not 
expect to do after OOP.

Granted, DD had in my book only one year of idiotic behaviour, but 
as I said, hopeless optimist me has faith in JKR writing skills.

Maybe I will be proven wrong, but again, she made me not be annoyed 
with Molly over her treatment of Fleur as well. Granted I do not 
hate Molly, I like her for the most part, unless she is IMO being 
obnoxious to Fleur.... and Sirius.... and Hermione.... but still, I 
think I have faith :)

P.S. Just watch me eat that crow on July 24.

Alla.
