One character you'd bring back to life:
Fred!!!!! I think it was the cruelest death in the series--I mean, she killed off a twin.
Favorite Harry moment:
When he was defeating Voldemort. He was just...wow. I was floored. Also, the epilogue. I loved seeing him get that happy ending.

Favorite Snape moment:
Oh, definitely his memories, specifically when he says, "Always." I was also rather fond of him making the Unbreakable Vow with Narcissa.
Favorite Dumbledore moment:
When he lets Trewlaney stay at Hogwarts (that part was heartbreaking, as much as I don't like Trewlaney), and when he tells Harry "everything" in Book 5 (which, of course, we now know was NOT everything).
Favorite Voldemort moment:
When he DIED. HA. (Hm, ok, that sounded vindictive, didn't it? D:)

When we find out he's not a mass murderer at all. One of the best twists in the books, if you ask me.
Favorite Weasley family moment:
When Percy comes back. :]
Favorite Draco moment:
On the tower, when you could tell he really didn't want to kill Dumbledore. And then, the epilogue, when he nods at the Trio, and you think he might have turned out all right.

Number of midnight releases have you attended:
Zero. *hangs head again* I would have, but my mom made no secret of how stupid she thought they were and always pre-ordered, so there was really no point.

2. "We've all got both light and dark inside us, Harry. What matters is which part we choose to act on." --Sirius (OotP)
3. "Everyone loves a rebel, Harry. Speaking of your parents, were they alive, how do you think they'd feel? Proud?

(Harry: Hey, my eyes aren't glistening with the ghost of my past!)--Rita Skeeter.
Favorite movie scene:
Hm....I do love Fred and George's firework escape scene from OotP. Also, for some reason, the pandemonium after the Third Task in GoF really stuck with me.
Favorite scene in the movies not included in the books:
The one in GoF where they're all in, like, study hall asking each other to ball and having whispered arguments and Snape keeps whacking Harry and Ron over the head. *smothers giggles*

The whole explanation for Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs.

Fred or George: George. <3
CAPSLOCK HARRY or Emo!Harry: Capslock Harry is far more amusing and less heart-breaking.

Peter Pettigrew or Mundungus Fletcher: *grumbles* Dung, I guess, even though he's a snivelling no good dirty rat who steals from dead people and flakes out on every situation.
Whomping Willow or Flying Ford Anglia: Ford Anglia PWNS. How many cars become wild, dude?
Invisibility cloak or Pensieve: Can I take both?
Grimmauld Place or The Burrow: The Burrow!
Werewolf or Inferi: Werewolf! At least some of them are nice!
