Book 7

[green_kiwigirl]

None of this is at all set in stone and I'm not sure of it, but still, cut for spoilers just in case. I dunno. Anyway, It's about who dies in Harry Potter and the ???????.

So any guesses what she's going to be apologizing to Harry for exactly?

[snorkackcatcher]

Just for all the *#%$ she's put him through, I think. :)

[green_kiwigirl]

Well, she's said before that she'd like to apologize for "everything she's put him through." I think, just in general, she'd apoligize for... everything.

[ragdoll]

I don't see her killing off the Trio. Despite all her threats, they have to live. It's still a children's series and there's been traumatic deaths a plenty. So having the hero and his 2 best friends triumph, well, it makes sense.

I think Ginny's safe too.

I don't know in what condition any of them will be i.e. if they'll be unscathed, but they'll be alive and well.

I suspect Snape is going to die redeeming himself and proving he was a good guy after all. I have no idea who else she's going to off. I'm praying the Weasleys are immune (other than Percy) but who knows. She's done so little with Charlie that I won't be shocked if he suddenly turns up dead before the wedding or something. (Of course, if the bride winds up dead before the wedding, I would be very happy. ;))

[green_kiwigirl]

I agree. I think the trio and Ginny will live. But they might be scathed. It's odd, everyone seems to be assuming the characters will die or they won't- it's very black and white. You never know, Ron might... lose an eye, Hermione could never walk again, Harry could lose a finger when it's bitten off by a creeping ring-seeking... oh, wait, wrong fandom. :D

I dunno if all the Weasleys will make it, but I think Bill will be okay. Something about the fact that he's already gone through a major life changing injury makes me think he's okay. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if Charlie got it- I think I'd actually be less sad if he died than if Percy did. I guess it has to do with that we don't really know Charlie.

Fleur dying... ha, I bet you'd like that. Maybe Tonks could fill in at the wedding, eh? ;p

[ragdoll]

See, that's my feeling. That they may (and probably will) sustain some sort of permanent injuries but they'll live. I can't see her letting Harry live but dealing with the death of his girlfriend as the end of a kid's book. And Ron and Hermione would be scarred without one another. So...yeah. Definitely. I'm wondering if Harry's going to lose his ability to do magic or something. We'll see

[green_kiwigirl]

I agree about the strong woman thing. Sometimes I think that Jo chooses to make her "strong girls" (i.e. Hermione, Ginny) seem stronger by surrounding them with idiot girls. Honestly, most of the more minor girls that actually feature quite a lot in the books are very silly: Romilda Vane, Parvati, Lavender, Padma, Pansy. The Hufflepuff girls seem like quite good examples of nice, normal, non-idiot girls, but they don't get much attention. I mean... Hermione would not be any less of a strong character if she were surrounded by normal girls, not airheads.

Fleur... meh. I don't really hate her, she has her good moments, but she seems to require a life-or-death situation to bring out any depth in her. Her best moments have been when she thought Gabrielle was dying, and when she was afraid Bill was dying/when he was hurt. In normal, everyday stuff, she's just... I dunno. Snobby, a sex symbol, and, yes, a French joke.

[snorkackcatcher]

My bet's on the Trio & Ginny making it through -- anyone else, all bets are off, unfortunately. There are probably going to be at least half a dozen well known characters biting the dust in book 7, I'd guess.

[green_kiwigirl]

You know, I'm pretty much okay as long as those guys make it through. I'd be quite sad to see Mr. or Mrs. Weasley or McGonagall or Lupin go- but, well, I'd just be so grateful the trio live I probably wouldn't cry... that much.

[kilted]

I agree with you about the Trio making it...

I have my theories and such about who I think will get bumped off, and I've written them down somewhere. I'll have to dig them up at some point.

[green_kiwigirl]

Oh, do dig them up! I wanna know who you think'll go. I'm thinking Snape, myself... Maybe McGonagall... Hagrid... Flitwick... probably at least one Weasley (*sniffle*).

[kilted]

I think they're in my car, actually (back of the sketch book, you see), but I think I can remember most of them. I just have a running list of maybes and reasons.

Remus- last connection to parents *sniffles*
Mrs. W (;_;)- Last parental figure
Percy- as he is a complete twat AND in the government, which is dumb
Snape- *hates upon*
Draco- also a twat. May get redeemed. Doubt it though. Voldiepants will probably kill him...
Maybe Hagrid, HOPEFULLY NOT McG. I like her... Um... Dobby? Trewlaney (Voldiepants will find out she made the thingy and try and get her to repeat it maybe?)

Um......... that's it I think.

[green_kiwigirl]

Noooooooo! Not Lupin! And not Mrs. Weasley! Then Ron'll be too sad to marry Hermione, heh. (BTW, do you think that people will actually be marrying each other in the epilogue?)

I don't really care if Hagrid dies, nor Dobby (I've always found him kinda annoying), nor Trelawney, nor Snape. I might be a little more upset with Draco, even though I don't like him AT ALL. He's just too young. It's sad.

But for some reason, I'd be a tad sad if Percy died. Or, OMG, MCGONAGALL! I really like her too, actually! No killing the Mc-ster, Jo!!!!

[glistengirli]

I really, really hope the trio makes it. And Ginny!
At this point the major death that'd kill me and, every fan that lives, is Remus. Seems like every other a major importance has died already. Remus is Harry's last dad-ish character.

But it's sad thinking about it! I don't really want anyone to die. No matter how important the death will be.

[green_kiwigirl]

Aww, Remus. *cuddles* My favorite marauder. I don't want him to get the axe either! *wibbles in fear*

God, I may actually have a heart attack once I get book 7. I won't be able to open it. Imagine if she starts it off with a death. *wibbles some more*

Word. I don't really want anyone to die either. But, if the trio, Remus, McGonagall and the parental Weasleys live, I'll be okay.

It's not asking that much, is it...? :( Well, it actually is, I'm sure one of them will die. *emo-ness*
