Who is the Half-Blood Prince...?

Totally dead, man, he's said time and time again that there are worse things than death and that, to the experienced wizard, death is but the next great journey. That doesn't sounds like the philosophical musings of a man who would fake his own death.

Also, if Snape was faking he'd have dropped dead. Unbreakable oath, you know.

There are some flaws in my theory and I actually hope I'm wrong, but it did seem to me like the spells I mentioned were an elliptical setup. As they were introduced I was expecting them to be significant and, really, they weren't - or at least, not visibly.

Could be for something in the last book, though.

Even if it weren't for the fact that Remus is obviously gay and totally in love with Sirius (:P :P), the relationship 'twixt those two would still piss us off.

Oh and I meant to say this earlier but I forgot. You two always have these silly notions about two guys having to be together.. seriously... it's so very obvious Snape and Sirius had the unrequited love and now with Sirius gone Snape has nothing to live for so he turns back to the Dark Lord. Did you miss all the sexual tension in book 5? Sheesh.. women...

lozl yes >_>

I just got off the phone with Ms Rowling. It was actually Aberforth in a wig.

Fun Fact: Aberforth Dumbledore is the bartender at the Hog's Head Inn.

What exactly would be an appropriate goat charm?

I don't think that'd do it. Hell, the Ministry of Magic fully condones kids turning mice into drinking cups in school classes! They're obviously not strict when it comes to animal cruelty . . .

. . . So he'd really have to do a number on that goat . . .

(sorry for the lateness on this topic)

I just want to point out that I had the two most major plot details on my rantspace 3 days before the book came out (I snuck a peak at work) and for my trouble I got exactly 0 extra hits.

go me.

Ha! Well fancy that! While lawyers were hounding down innocent kids who bought copies by accident, Noise Monkeys all over the world were reading away in the comfort of their own shops!
