1. Can Muggles brew Potions?
I’m pretty sure Jo said no to that, but I can’t remember which interview it was.

2. If you were in the Order of the Phoenix, what would your security question be? (ie: of Mollywobbles/airplanes fame)The security question isn’t an Order of the Phoenix issue. The Ministry recommended everyone use a ( Read more... )

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

Sorry I have been so scarce. This respiratory ickiness seems to have attacked an awful lot of us. I wish us all lots of good health and happiness for the coming year.

1. Do you think Snape's relationship with Harry would have been different had Harry not looked so much like James? Why?

1. Who is your favorite Hogwarts professor?
Flitwick.

HP FRIDAY FIVE

1. What is your favorite part of Book 1? Why?Tie between Harry meeting the Weasleys for the first time at King’s Cross and Harry finding the Mirror of Erised for the first time. Both are first-family meeting scenes (the first his family-to-be, the second his family-of-origin) and they both make me long for Harry to have the happy ( Read more... )
