While I reread 1-6 and await Book 7, I'm reminded of how well JKR sets
up Chekhov's guns and how many loose ends I'm hoping will be resolved
in DH. I'm compiling a list -- not of predictions but rather
unanswered questions and topics I hope to resurface in DH. Please add on!
In no particular order:
1. Lily's/Harry's eyes
2. Lily -- & charms, & potions, & Snape, & Petunia
3. Dudley's reaction to dementers
4. Dumbledore's gleam of triumph
5. *That Night* at Godric's Hollow
a. Flying motorbike
b. Who else was there?
c. Why was Lily offered the choice/chance to live?
d. What actually happened??
6. James & Lily thrice defied Voldemort -- how/what?
7. Hermione & Ancient Runes
8. Squeaky stair at #4 Privet Drive
9. Petunia: "that awful boy"
10. Petunia -- how much does she know?
11. Invisivibility Cloak - when/why was it bequeathed?
12. Pettigrew -- silver hand, life debt
13. Gryffindor's Sword
14. Neville -- memory, toad, herbology
15. Ollivander
16. Sirius' two-way mirror
17. Veil of death
18. Snape's allegiance
19. Locket/horcruxes
20. Molly Weasley's greatest fear (dead Weasleys)
21. Pensieves
22. Occlumency & legilimency
23. SPEW/equality in the WW
24. Hermione's E in DADA
25. WHAT ELSE?
Joan of Anarchy, who's been waiting for Book 7 for ten years and now
realizes she's not ready for it
