Harry Potter musings.

[kippurbird]

Harry Potter count down is T minus two days and I've been thinking about the what I want resolved in the last book or would like to see.

First off, that room in the Department of Mysteries where Sirius died. What is that DAMN ARCH WITH THE VEIL? If I don't learn about that, I'll be sorely disappointed.

Is Ron and Hermione's attraction to each other finally going to be realized as an actual relationship?

Malfoy hesitated in killing Dumbledore and started to put down his wand. How is that going to work?

What's going to happen with the Dursleys? I imagine something will.

Of course, who is R.A.B.?

Is anything going to happen with S.P.E.W. and the house elves?

My mom seems to think that Neville will actually strike the killing blow on Voldemort, but I don't think so because it's Harry Potter not Neville Longbottom. Still, I have to wonder about the fact that they were both potentials for the prophecy will make a difference.

What's going to happen with Wormtail and his life debt to Harry?

Also, I accidentally read a spoiler on Wikipedia and I'm very upset now. It was in the Percy entry, so, don't look there.

There's also a spoiler- apparently a very big one- of the Deathly Hallows page. So don't go there, either.

I didn't know that existed, but I will avoid it. :D

Glad to know that there are some people trying to avoid "Harry Potter" spoilers. Thanks for the warning, too. I personally am going to stay clear of all "Harry Potter" Wiki entries until I've finished the last book.

Two more days.... Eeee!

I agree with you on all the points you listed. I want to know about that veil in the Department of Mysteries. And R.A.B. as well.

I personally think it'd be damn cool if Neville struck the killing blow on Voldemort. Basically because it's something that the readers totally wouldn't expect. And plus Neville deserves some glory as well. I don't know why but I really like him for some odd reason.

Christ. There's so much left to resolve that it almost feels like seven hundred pages isn't enough.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I am too. Gaaaaah.

I think Neville should have a big part too, because he's been like the opposite of Harry so long.

*flails* I know! It's horrible!

Isn't RAB Regulus Black? Or was this fanon? I get so confuzzled.

[thelittlebudgie.livejournal.com]

Speculation. Though he was who I thought of first.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Fanon. It's never been confirmed. The owner should be confirmed in this book.

Better be.

[jacedraccus.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it will be. Rowling's been a pretty good author so far.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she has been.

Well, I heard that in this one country where Reg's name is different, the initials on the note were also different – and they matched

So it's a pretty safe bet.

[jacedraccus.livejournal.com]

Interesting...

Also, the note makes it fairly clear that it is someone who knows Voldemort, who would expect the Dark Lord to know who _he_ was... and it's someone who worked against or turned against Voldemort, and didn't expect to live very long after that.

And considering we hadn't really heard anything of Regulus before, and all of a sudden he's mentioned in Half Blood Prince... seems like foreshadowing, maybe.
