[15:17] *** Hermeeownee has joined #lounge [15:17] <fawkes28> While its easy to drift off in various directions, let's all try to have a fun chat by sticking to the topic for today. OK, moving on to the topic for the chat! [15:17] <Aislinn> Today we are talking about the current staff at Hogwarts, and what might happen to them in "Deathly Hallows" and beyond - focusing mainly on their roles as educators. [15:17] <Aislinn> Though there won't be any Quidditch in Book 7, it sounds like from Jo's answers to questions about the new DADA teacher, that the school will indeed be open. She's also answered that neither Snape nor Lupin will return as the teacher. So, who is your favorite to fill the DADA position for Book 7? [15:17] <nympheart> maybe the real mad-eye [15:17] <JaneMarple9> I'm saying Tonks [15:18] <Val_Halla> Victor Krum [15:18] <MirandaV> I like Bill Weasley [15:18] <fawkes28> Tonks is my choice [15:18] *** Fechin has joined #lounge [15:18] <JaneMarple9> yes the real mad eye is interesting [15:18] <Expelliarmas> Some person who is not afraid of the jinx [15:18] <fawkes28> i think Bill needs to be doing things [15:18] <nympheart> hi fechin [15:18] <mollywobbles23> Lupin, if he didn't have to deal with the werewolves. [15:18] <Expelliarmas> or does not know about the jinx [15:18] <MirandaV> Yeah...but I like him [15:18] <Fechin> hi [15:18] <JaneMarple9> their's arthur too [15:18] <MirandaV> lol [15:18] <fawkes28> i think keeping him contained in the classroom is tough [15:18] <katiebcat> I dont know who would be the teacher [15:18] <Expelliarmas> perhaps Viktor Krum [15:18] <Aislinn> I think that Bill is a fine choice [15:18] <MafaldaWeasley> Tonls or Kingsley [15:18] <JaneMarple9> viktor...not sure [15:19] <nympheart> kingsley is busy guarding the muggle minister [15:19] <Theoriser> Tonks would be an interesting choice [15:19] <dumbleydore18> victor? lol. I dont see that being plausable. I see CHarlie returning because he is close to Hogwarts...or atleast somewhat, he can still keep his job plus be a teacher. [15:19] <JaneMarple9> he'll be a teacher somehow i think [15:19] <MirandaV> I think Kingsley will stay working for the muggle [15:19] <Expelliarmas> well, Krum was taught to do the dark arts, not just defend against them [15:19] <Aislinn> There is a Scribbulus essay that suggests Viktor as the next DADA teacher - makes a good argument for it [15:19] <fawkes28> Tonks would be a great choice - but she may be too worried about Lupin to focus properly [15:19] <MirandaV> I think Victor is a possiblity [15:19] <MafaldaWeasley> until when? i think he might be changed once the minister get a clue he's with the order [15:19] <JaneMarple9> she is a little clumsy too [15:19] *** Evreka has joined #lounge [15:19] <dumbleydore18> I am still stuck on who will be the potions master now? [15:19] <Expelliarmas> and Krum might have no idea about the jinx on the position [15:19] <nympheart> true fawkes, I think she'd want to fight rather than teach, too [15:19] <Fechin> i hope its not Tonks since DADA teacher tend to have issues [15:19] <mollywobbles23> Slughorn, dumbley. I think he may stay. [15:19] <dumbleydore18> Snape is gone who's filling his shoes? [15:19] <nympheart> hi evreka [15:20] <MirandaV> Do you think they'll have a problem with that Mafalda?? [15:20] <fawkes28> it would be good to have an order member to protect hogwarts now that DD is gone [15:20] <dumbleydore18> Slughorn said he was only teaching for the 6th years [15:20] <MafaldaWeasley> i'm sure they will, Miranda. [15:20] <Evreka> Hi everyone [15:20] <dumbleydore18> for one year [15:20] <katiebcat> it could be a teacher that teaches another class. [15:20] <cloudpic> I've been saying forever that I'd love it to be Viktor... Dumbledore did invite him back [15:20] <mollywobbles23> he may change his mind now that DD is gone, though. [15:20] <dumbleydore18> viktor is too young to be a teacher [15:20] <katiebcat> i aggree with dumbley [15:21] <MirandaV> I think Tonks might be too dumbley [15:21] <Val_Halla> I can't help thinking Krum must appear again sometime [15:21] <Evreka> What's the question? [15:21] <cloudpic> How so? He's out of school... he's been out for a year now, no>? [15:21] <dumbleydore18> doesn't he have to be in his mid 20s? [15:21] <mollywobbles23> who do you think will be the new DADA teacher. [15:21] <Expelliarmas> Age doesn't seem to be a factor in the wizarding community [15:21] <fawkes28> we are talking about who will be the DADA teacher [15:21] <nympheart> tonks is 24 [15:21] <cloudpic> Think of what a good job Harry did... much younger [15:21] <JaneMarple9> ((cloudpic)) you have your invisability cloak on! Didn't see you there!! [15:21] <Evreka> Oh, do we know Hogwarts WILL open? [15:21] <Expelliarmas> no one seems to want the position due to the jinx, so the school can't be that picky [15:21] <JaneMarple9> I quite like the idea of Viktor [15:21] * cloudpic not hiding though [15:21] <Fechin> i was just going to say is it a 100% it will open agian [15:21] <Expelliarmas> no, Evreka, no one knows that--but it does not end the speculation here though [15:21] <Aislinn> I think there is every reason to believe that it will, cloudpic [15:21] <JaneMarple9> he might be very useful [15:22] <Val_Halla> Quirrell was quite young, wasn't he? [15:22] <MafaldaWeasley> I think Viktor will suit another one [15:22] <mollywobbles23> Jo has talked about a new DADA teacher, so we're speculating and assuming that it will be for this particular discussion. [15:22] <Evreka> k, expie [15:22] * katiebcat thinks clould is trying to hide [15:22] <Aislinn> oops, sorry, evreka [15:22] <MirandaV> Yes, I know she is 24 but it seems to me that all of the teachers have at least been in their late 30s at youngest [15:22] <cloudpic> LOL [15:22] <Aislinn> laugh [15:22] <fawkes28> well, in times of war - mcgonagall wont be too picky [15:22] <katiebcat> I think as long as they are out of school they can teach [15:22] <Fechin> I hope it's not Tonks but I think its a good chance it will be her [15:22] <fawkes28> and 24 year olds make great teachers! [15:22] <cloudpic> Perhaps Viktor and Bill and Tonks will team teach? [15:22] <dumbleydore18> I don't see viktor teaching he has his quidditch team [15:22] <JaneMarple9> well if tonks is a little young, so is viktor [15:22] <Expelliarmas> I think Tonks would be more useful within the Order [15:23] <Fechin> yep [15:23] <mollywobbles23> Delagus Diggle (sp?) [15:23] <cloudpic> I suspect many teachers will be needed off and on to work for the Order... [15:23] <nympheart> I agree expie [15:23] <MafaldaWeasley> I see Viktor teaching some other subject [15:23] <cloudpic> but the school will need them too. [15:23] <katiebcat> if the champion for the girls only school out of school yet? [15:23] <MirandaV> I agree in the real worlk fawkes...but with magic you may need a bit more life experience [15:23] <JaneMarple9> I like the idea of Bill but I think he will be with Lupin Greyback hunting [15:23] <MirandaV> oops world [15:23] <mollywobbles23> Isn't Diggle in the Order? [15:23] <JaneMarple9> yes they are [15:23] <MirandaV> yes molly [15:23] <JaneMarple9> i think [15:23] <dumbleydore18> but anyways, I still see Charlie or Bill teaching, yet they are in the Order....Hmm...Lupin is in the Order and he taught so that doesn't change anything....Hmmm...CHarlie or Bill are my guesses. They can keep their eye on things good or bad. [15:23] <mollywobbles23> k, I just started rereading OOTP and that's what I thought. [15:23] <JaneMarple9> how about Aberforth? [15:24] <nympheart> I think Mad-Eye would be a decent choice, he's so paranoid that he may do better positioned in the school than going out and fighting [15:24] <Evreka> I would think they'd be carefull to get an Order memv´ber to do it since it's jinxed [15:24] <MirandaV> Aberforth...they aren't even sure he can read...that may be a hindrance [15:24] <MirandaV> :) [15:24] <katiebcat> do you think Fleur would be good also? [15:24] <Expelliarmas> Bill studies dragons; can't see him teaching DADA, perhaps care of magical creatures, but not DADA [15:24] *** blackhippogriff has joined #lounge [15:24] <JaneMarple9> no not fleur [15:24] <nympheart> hi black [15:24] <MafaldaWeasley> I think Mad-eye wouldn't accept. he would be afraind of ending trapped once more [15:24] <JaneMarple9> don't like that idea [15:24] <Evreka> Bill is a Curse-Breaker [15:24] <MirandaV> no...I don't think fluer would be good [15:24] <Evreka> Charlie studies Dragons [15:24] <Expelliarmas> ah, then Charlie is the dragon guy [15:24] <katiebcat> what is wrong with her? [15:24] <MirandaV> Charlie studies dragons [15:24] <Val_Halla> No, Bill is a cursebreaker;Charlie studies dragons [15:24] <dumbleydore18> Fluer can't deffend herself...no way would she be a good teacher! [15:25] <JaneMarple9> fleur would be too distracting to the boys in her class [15:25] <nympheart> I think Fleur will be too busy being married smile [15:25] <MirandaV> She's too full of herself to teach [15:25] <Expelliarmas> Fleur could barely manage the Tri-Wizard Tournament, can't see her doing well at DADA [15:25] <MirandaV> Teaching requires some self sacrifice [15:25] <Evreka> I don't think that's fair [15:25] <mollywobbles23> Could one of the teachers who are already there pull double duty? I mean, schools do that all the time. [15:25] <JaneMarple9> and the girls would be too busy creating a hate campaign against her! [15:25] <Evreka> but I can't see her as DADA [15:25] <JaneMarple9> hmmm perhaps Slughorn [15:25] <MirandaV> brb [15:25] <Hermeeownee> Fleur had the fake Mad-eye getting in her way manipulating things [15:25] <katiebcat> i was just saying if she got her act together then she could teach [15:25] <MafaldaWeasley> slughorn will keep potions for sure [15:26] <Hermeeownee> at least in round 3 [15:26] <Expelliarmas> the grindylows kept her from finishing the 2nd task; and the kids at hogwarts learned about them during 3rd year [15:26] <Fechin> has there been a female dada yet? [15:26] <nympheart> Slughorn likes his comfort, I think he'll stay with potions [15:26] <Aislinn> McGonagall - Will she continue to teach Transfiguration? Who do you think she'll appoint to replace herself? [15:26] <dumbleydore18> I hate to say it....Umbridge? *don't hit me!* [15:26] <mollywobbles23> not that we know of Fechin [15:26] <MafaldaWeasley> I think Krum will get her place [15:26] <Fechin> thougt so just checking [15:26] <mollywobbles23> I'm not sure. [15:26] <fawkes28> she may have too if no one else will [15:26] <Hermeeownee> Umbridge- NO WAY!!!! [15:26] <JaneMarple9> i like this idea...mcgonagall will just be head of the school [15:26] <MafaldaWeasley> he was good at his transfiguration at GOF [15:26] <Val_Halla> I'm not certain she'll be Headmistress [15:26] <NYBookworm> I don't think she will teach and be headmistress that's too much at one time [15:26] <Evreka> I think she'll be busy with Order work - or else possibly a´s Headmistress [15:26] <Expelliarmas> McG, if she's not headmistress, will teach Transfiguration [15:26] <nympheart> I agree Jane [15:26] <katiebcat> I think Mcgonagall would continue teaching [15:26] <mollywobbles23> DD stopped teaching it once he became headmaster, soo... [15:26] <Hermeeownee> especially not with Firenze working too. [15:26] <Theoriser> I think that she'll stay teaching transfiguration [15:26] <Evreka> not going on as teacher [15:26] <JaneMarple9> but Tonks will be transfiguration teacher [15:27] <Aislinn> I think that McG will be busy being Headmistress, and won't have time to do both [15:27] <nympheart> I wonder...Rita's an animagus, so she would have the skills [15:27] <JaneMarple9> after all she is a metamorphmagus [15:27] <Fechin> i think McGonaall will teach and run the school [15:27] <Expelliarmas> Tonks however does not perform transfiguration upon herself; her gift is natural [15:27] <cloudpic> Dumbledore managed Order work, h'crux hunting and Headmastering... [15:27] <dumbleydore18> Krum is too busy being in his quidditch team! Let alone have time to teach! [15:27] <blackhippogriff> umbridge went crazy last time she was a teacher [15:27] <JaneMarple9> (or something like that!) [15:27] <katiebcat> i aggree with Fechin [15:27] <Evreka> I don't think Tonks - clumsy head no 1 - would be a great tewacher [15:27] <Hermeeownee> Tonks would be an interesting transfiguration teacher. [15:27] <Evreka> least of all Transfiguration [15:27] <cloudpic> I think Minerva McG. can be Headmistress and work for the Order [15:27] <mollywobbles23> I think McG will become headmistress, but I don't think she'll teach. She'd lose her mind when you add Order duties to that. [15:27] <JaneMarple9> She is quite good at tranfiguring [15:27] <MafaldaWeasley> I think he'll leave the team and come back, Evreka. [15:28] <Fechin> i ust dont see her giving up teaching she likes it too much [15:28] <cloudpic> Tonks has a talent we're ignoring which is important for a teacher: [15:28] <mollywobbles23> So was DD, he still stopped teaching. [15:28] <MirandaV> Are we on a new question??? [15:28] <Hermeeownee> Didn't Jo mention that we would see more of Victor? [15:28] <Expelliarmas> Tonks would be a great friend to the students, but I can't see her as much of a teacher [15:28] *** Joyhawk2121 has joined #lounge [15:28] <cloudpic> She notices things... remember how she was always on it taking care of Harry? [15:28] *** auroraminerva has joined #lounge [15:28] <nympheart> hi joy [15:28] <JaneMarple9> how about Firenze teaching transfiguration? [15:28] <Fechin> hello newcomers [15:28] <Expelliarmas> heya, joyhawk [15:28] <cloudpic> she relates well to younger kids. [15:28] <MafaldaWeasley> I don't think he can Jane [15:28] <nympheart> centaurs don't perform wizard magic [15:28] <MirandaV> I thought centaurs could only stargaze [15:28] <Evreka> Ì don't think he knows any [15:28] <Aislinn> Would Tonks be skilled at teaching it, since it is just an innate skill for her? [15:28] <blackhippogriff> why can't you see tonks as a teacher [15:28] <Joyhawk2121> hello everyone [15:28] <katiebcat> do you think mrs.weasly could teach? [15:28] <fawkes28> that is interesting - Jane - what makes you think that? [15:28] <JaneMarple9> hmmm probably be hard to hold a wand [15:28] <dumbleydore18> Jane he's teaching astronomy along side Trelawney [15:29] <cloudpic> Perhaps Minerva McG would take her on as an apprentice to teach Transfiguration with McG's overseeing it? [15:29] <Evreka> She's so clumsy Neville seems not clumsy at all.... [15:29] <Expelliarmas> I don't think so, Aislinn; but she'd be entertaining and kind [15:29] <MafaldaWeasley> I find it hard, Aislinn, once she said she not even had to study to take the exams for auror [15:29] <Evreka> devil2 [15:29] <mollywobbles23> perhaps, Aislinn, though I don't know if she does much wand transfiguration. [15:29] <Hermeeownee> metamorphmagus' can change themselves- but that doesn't mean she doesn't know how to change other things. [15:29] <JaneMarple9> Yes, but Trelawney is in danger now! [15:29] <Aislinn> true, expie [15:29] <mollywobbles23> brb, thirsty [15:29] <Evreka> That too Mafalda [15:29] <blackhippogriff> it wouled be a liveing nightmare for the weasly kids [15:29] <JaneMarple9> molly as transfiguration teacher could be interesting [15:29] <JaneMarple9> or Arthur? [15:30] <MirandaV> Does molly do transfiguration? [15:30] <Hermeeownee> she must have done wand transfiguration to pass her auror's tests [15:30] <Aislinn> definitely put a cramp in their style, blackhippogriff [15:30] <blackhippogriff> what dose she knaow [15:30] <MirandaV> I don't recall seeing it [15:30] <nympheart> Molly conjures sauce, she can't be bad at transfiguration [15:30] <JaneMarple9> she seems to be good with a wand! [15:30] <MafaldaWeasley> Well, I'm sure Molly is a very good witch, since her brothers were so fabulous aurors [15:30] <Evreka> Hardly the same thing I think [15:30] <MirandaV> Yes, but that could be her home ec skills....remember Tonks saying she never got the hand of those homey spells [15:30] <blackhippogriff> so it's food not animals [15:30] <MafaldaWeasley> But I don't know if she would be a good teacher [15:30] <nympheart> it's the same idea though, black [15:31] <Hermeeownee> Molly would be interesting -now that she and arthur are beginning to deal with empty nests..... [15:31] <dumbleydore18> Molly would be hugging every child as they walked into the door....how nice...Molly would do a good job as a teacher she has patience and kindness. [15:31] *** You_wont_know_who has joined #lounge [15:31] <MafaldaWeasley> I still think Krum will have the job [15:31] <Aislinn> Now that McGonagall is headmistress, do you think we'll learn anything more about her history or family? [15:31] <fawkes28> hi ywkw [15:31] <nympheart> hi ywkw [15:31] <katiebcat> I think she would be for the other students but i also think she could put it harder on her children [15:31] <Evreka> Ginny is just 16 though [15:31] <JaneMarple9> hi ywkw! [15:31] <MirandaV> I agree with that dumbley...I just don't know that she would be one [15:31] <Val_Halla> I hope so [15:31] <MirandaV> hi ywkw [15:31] <Expelliarmas> No, I think the focus will be on the hunt for horcruxes [15:31] <Evreka> We'll see [15:31] <nympheart> I kind of hope so, but doubt it [15:31] <You_wont_know_who> hi evrybody, nice to see you all [15:31] <Hermeeownee> I hope so - she is so complex... knowing more about what makes her tick would be great [15:31] <fawkes28> I would loveo to find out if she was ever married and had any kids [15:31] <Fechin> I dont think we will find out too much about here maybe some more backstory about her at the school though [15:31] <cloudpic> Seems possible... but only if it somehow helped the plot development or charcter revelation... [15:31] <Fechin> her* [15:32] <cloudpic> No room for just backstory without need [15:32] <katiebcat> I think she could discover something about her self that she did not know [15:32] <MafaldaWeasley> I don't know. I think she'll be so busy all the time [15:32] *** MafaldaWeasley has quit [Bye] [15:32] <MirandaV> Didn't Jo say something to the effect that the teachers have spouses, or some of them, and we will find out about them? [15:32] <Fechin> well of course there would have to be need for it [15:32] <Aislinn> she did say that, miranda [15:32] <Evreka> yes she did Miranda [15:32] *** MafaldaWeasley has joined #lounge [15:32] <Aislinn> I'm waiting to see who she meant [15:32] <fawkes28> hi malfalda [15:32] <nympheart> wb mafalda [15:32] <Evreka> me too Aislinn [15:33] <JaneMarple9> I'd like finding out about the professors hubands/wifes/ kiddies [15:33] <MirandaV> Well, then. maybe we will find out more at Mrs. McG [15:33] <Fechin> snapes wife ? rofl [15:33] <MafaldaWeasley> i was typing and it wasn't showing up [15:33] <mollywobbles23> I hope so [15:33] <dumbleydore18> I don't know what to say about McG being headmistress. It would be nice to know info about her, but when DD was headmaster, we didn't learn anything about his past except for the fact that his brother works at the Hogshead, we didn't learn anything fmaily wise with DD. How would we with McG? [15:33] <MafaldaWeasley> now were are cool hehehe [15:33] <MirandaV> Fechin...that would be scary....did that git reproduce [15:33] <JaneMarple9> How weird would it be if there was a Mr McGonagall? [15:33] <fawkes28> that would be too funny [15:33] <Expelliarmas> there is a MrMcG we see him all the time [15:33] <Fechin> yeah i know lol just seemed to funny to think of though [15:33] <You_wont_know_who> it wouldn't be weird at all [15:33] <Aislinn> laugh [15:33] <nympheart> lol expie [15:33] <mollywobbles23> didn't Jo say that we will learn more about the professor's personal lives? Or am I imagining things? [15:33] <MirandaV> lol Expie [15:33] <Val_Halla> I was thinking the same thing, expie, lol [15:33] <Evreka> because there's a war going on - might affect them or her? [15:33] <dumbleydore18> heehee [15:33] <katiebcat> I think it would be nice if there was a MR.MrG [15:34] <MirandaV> She did molly [15:34] <JaneMarple9> just weird, seeming we know a Mr McGonagall smile [15:34] <Evreka> LOL, Expie! [15:34] <cloudpic> Good thought, Evreka.. that would give a window for our needing to know [15:34] <mollywobbles23> professors' * [15:34] <MafaldaWeasley> When Jo said that about professor i thought about Flitwick [15:34] <Aislinn> Will McGonagall survive Book 7? When and if she retires, how do you think she'll spend her retirement years? [15:34] <JaneMarple9> Perhaps Sybil is married? [15:34] <MirandaV> Yes, there spoused could be gone after for Hogwarts info [15:34] <Val_Halla> Am I the only person who thinks someone else may be appointed Headmaster? [15:34] <MirandaV> oops their [15:34] <blackhippogriff> who would do charms [15:34] <cloudpic> Oh, dear, I surely hope so [15:34] <mollywobbles23> She'll survive. [15:34] <JaneMarple9> Yes, definatelly she will survie [15:35] <MirandaV> I hope she survives [15:35] <You_wont_know_who> I think there's a very good chance that Minerva will die [15:35] <nympheart> I think she'll live [15:35] <Evreka> I hope she'll survive [15:35] <Expelliarmas> I hope so, but she's a spry 70 and wants to be in it as well [15:35] <Evreka> but I tend to doubt it [15:35] <MafaldaWeasley> I think she'll survive, but who knows [15:35] <MirandaV> Probably Val, but I never even thought of someone else being headmaster [15:35] <mollywobbles23> I don't think she'll retire. I think she'll stay on at Hogwarts until she passes away. [15:35] <JaneMarple9> and Val_Halla, I think McGonagall will be a headmistress for many many years [15:35] <cloudpic> She managed to survive that horrible fight at Hogwarts... and 70-ish is young for a Witch, no> [15:35] <cloudpic> ? [15:35] <fawkes28> she did survive that stunning charm - so she is one tough cookie [15:35] <dumbleydore18> McG is strong willed, she'll survive. I think she will spend her retired years as a teacher at Hogwarts, she love teaching. [15:35] <Fechin> I dont see Mconagall dying [15:35] <Expelliarmas> the wizards live an uncommonly long time [15:35] <MirandaV> Well, DD was what 150...I think she's got some years left on her [15:35] <You_wont_know_who> McGonagall is a kind of woman who will die in action [15:35] <Evreka> yeah, but she also loves Harry, iu think [15:36] <blackhippogriff> she is a member of the order and there will be a lot of fighting [15:36] <Theoriser> I agree ywkw [15:36] <JaneMarple9> Hogwarts is her home [15:36] <Evreka> and that's probably very lethal right now [15:36] <You_wont_know_who> we don't know if Hogwarts is her home, she might have a home of her own [15:36] <cloudpic> I wonder about just where "home" is for the professors... Snape seems to have been away in summer... [15:36] <JaneMarple9> yes she is very fond of harry [15:36] <Fechin> I don't think she ever would retire [15:36] <Aislinn> Binns - Could he ever decide to do something else besides teaching? Does he have any info that would be helpful to the Trio on their journey, and if so, will they think to ask him? [15:36] <Evreka> add Order member and possibly Headmistress and I fear for her life [15:36] <MirandaV> Is she a member of the order??? I don't remember her being one [15:36] <cloudpic> Maybe we'll see their family's endangered then? [15:36] <MafaldaWeasley> i think she stads for what's right no matter what, maybe staying alive is better than dying so the "right" can be set foward to the next generations [15:36] <JaneMarple9> i can't see her ever retiring [15:36] <cloudpic> He's the Goblin expert [15:36] <Evreka> I don't think he'll be important [15:37] <fawkes28> i feel like he is just trapped in a cycle - like Groundhog's Day [15:37] <nympheart> Binns is pretty colorless, I don't see him doing anthing important [15:37] <JaneMarple9> Binns - he could be useful [15:37] <You_wont_know_who> Binns is a ghost, right? [15:37] <Expelliarmas> No, I think Binns is what he is [15:37] <MirandaV> Binns...if they can get him to stop droning on [15:37] <MafaldaWeasley> Binns was such a secundary character, I've never thought of him [15:37] <fawkes28> yes, ywkw [15:37] <Evreka> a character to stop in a binn I'd say... wink [15:37] <You_wont_know_who> he will be teaching forever [15:37] <nympheart> yes, fawkes [15:37] <cloudpic> We've had so much mention of that... seems like his Goblin info. must be important somehow [15:37] <JaneMarple9> he might know something about horcruxes [15:37] <MirandaV> Changing that man from his course is like trying to move a mountain [15:37] <Aislinn> I think that now he is a ghost, he is set doing what he is doing, or else just wandering around the castle, like the other ghosts. He's not living anymore, so life changes are not in the cards for him [15:37] <nympheart> I think it will be Flitwick who gets involved with the goblins [15:37] *** CedrellaBlack has quit [Bye] [15:37] <You_wont_know_who> he might even turn into a teacher-poltergeist [15:37] <mollywobbles23> Binns is both literally and figuratively transparent. [15:37] <blackhippogriff> yahe she is she was in siuris headquarters [15:37] <JaneMarple9> and the goblin details can be given to Bill [15:37] <dumbleydore18> yeah like cp said...the goblin expert and he knows alot about history too so he would provide them with more info and maybe how to get creatures on the good side [15:37] <Evreka> Exactly Aislinn [15:37] <Expelliarmas> I don't think he'll know much about horcruxes; the person for that will be slughorn [15:38] <MirandaV> When black?? [15:38] <MafaldaWeasley> I agree expie [15:38] <JaneMarple9> and Bill can tell Harry all about them [15:38] <MirandaV> I don't remember [15:38] <mollywobbles23> I think that perhaps Hermione's actual history notes may be useful, but not Binns himself. [15:38] <blackhippogriff> how dose bill know about them [15:38] <JaneMarple9> nice idea molly [15:39] <You_wont_know_who> the history of Magic is an underestimated subject at Hogwarts and Binns might be needed to explain this or that [15:39] <MirandaV> Bill works for Gringotts [15:39] <JaneMarple9> bill works as a cursebreaker [15:39] <fawkes28> so anyway I think that Binns will remain HoM teacher [15:39] <MirandaV> with the Goblins [15:39] <Evreka> I don't think History of Magic will be usefull [15:39] <JaneMarple9> and comes across goblins every day [15:39] <mollywobbles23> except, there was that one day that she didn't pay attention in that class either. I don't remember what book or why, though. [15:39] <MafaldaWeasley> I gree ywkw [15:39] <Expelliarmas> I don't think Binns has any idea of what's going on in the magical community right now [15:39] <nympheart> agreed, fawkes, he doesn't know anything else [15:39] <You_wont_know_who> I love History myself so I would love to see the history of Magic useful [15:39] <JaneMarple9> i like the idea about the History of Magic notes by Hemrione [15:39] <MirandaV> It was in PoA I think molly [15:39] <Evreka> because she was mad at Harry I thimk Molly [15:40] <MafaldaWeasley> but I see more it coming from hermione then from binns [15:40] <mollywobbles23> I think so too [15:40] <JaneMarple9> or even Hogwarts a History too [15:40] <You_wont_know_who> true Jane [15:40] <mollywobbles23> May have been the whole Firebolt debacle...or it may have been the Scabbers/Crookshanks thing. [15:40] <Aislinn> Lockhart - So, could he ever return to Hogwarts? What kind of job could he do - Filch's cleaning assistant perhaps (chuckle)? [15:40] <JaneMarple9> i think it was durings her "time0turning" phrase [15:40] <JaneMarple9> when he forgot charms! [15:41] <Val_Halla> I don't see Lockhart returning [15:41] <nympheart> no, Lockhart's gone, I think Jo said he's not coming back into the books [15:41] <blackhippogriff> no way he's useless [15:41] <MafaldaWeasley> Oh My goodness! I hope not [15:41] <Evreka> Actually I think it's in OOTP over Harry deciding to use Umbridge's office to talk to Sirius [15:41] <mollywobbles23> I think Lockhart is comedic relief [15:41] <You_wont_know_who> Lockhart is a lost case - I don;'t know if he ever gets his memory back [15:41] <JaneMarple9> yes I would like to see Lockheart return to Hogwarts [15:41] <Evreka> NOOO! [15:41] <fawkes28> he could return to visit and amuse me laugh [15:41] <Aislinn> well, he was useless before, yet taught laugh [15:41] <Fechin> I think hes done it was nice seeing him in OOTP [15:41] <You_wont_know_who> lol fawkes - if you wish so [15:41] <Theoriser> I can't see what he would do if he did come back [15:41] <Joyhawk2121> I think he's done t [15:41] <mollywobbles23> I don't think he'll be allowed back after what he attempted to do to Harry and Ron, even if he did regain his sanity. [15:41] <dumbleydore18> no Lockhart! I would go insane! [15:41] <JaneMarple9> I hope he will return in book 7 even to give comic relief [15:42] <MirandaV> If Lockhart returns I'm going on strike [15:42] <Fechin> hes a horcrux tongue tongue tongue [15:42] <Evreka> I hope so Joy, two books with him in is quite enough! [15:42] <nympheart> lol Miranda [15:42] <auroraminerva> What about Slughorn? Now that DD is gone is he going to stay at Hogwarts? [15:42] <Evreka> LOL, Miranda! [15:42] <Fechin> Yeah hes head to S house now [15:42] <JaneMarple9> perhaps not as a teacher! But as a background character [15:42] <Fechin> i think hes staying [15:42] <auroraminerva> just for horcrux info? [15:42] <mollywobbles23> he's staying [15:42] <JaneMarple9> awww Miranda, thats a little drastic! [15:42] <blackhippogriff> he was scared to go there in the first place [15:43] <Aislinn> Slughorn - Will he for sure head Slytherin House once more? Will his former Death Eater pupils catch up with him or is he relatively safe at Hogwarts? [15:43] <Fechin> just for the fact that we dont need anymore new character and now hes needed more than ever there [15:43] <JaneMarple9> Perhaps Lockheart knows about horcruxes? [15:43] <nympheart> I think he's stuck at Hogwarts now [15:43] <MafaldaWeasley> I think he'll stay for security really [15:43] <Evreka> IF Hogwarts stay open I think he'll stay as Hof S [15:43] <Fechin> yep hes stuck [15:43] <Val_Halla> I think he'll stay and be Head of Slytherin [15:43] <auroraminerva> I thought Hogwarts was safe only because of DD [15:43] <Joyhawk2121> yeah security [15:43] <Expelliarmas> after Snape, it will be nice to have a Slytherin Head of House who is not associated with the DEs [15:43] <JaneMarple9> Yes, Sliughorn will stay as Slytherin Head of House [15:43] <MafaldaWeasley> He'll saty cause Hogwarts will be over protected and he needs that protection [15:43] <JaneMarple9> he is probably used to it now [15:43] <Evreka> yeah, so I don't think it's open, but that's anoyther tale... tongue [15:44] <dumbleydore18> I think he is safe at Hogwarts [15:44] <Fechin> ok i dont want to sound stupid but what members of the order are actaully at hogwarts? [15:44] <Val_Halla> Even w/o DD there is lots of security at Hogwarts [15:44] <Aislinn> I think he is staying. The way he was talking in the office when they discussed the school remaining open made it sound like he is committed to the school [15:44] <auroraminerva> Maybe DD still left protection by dying at Hogwarts [15:44] <Evreka> I think he has nowhere else to go [15:44] <JaneMarple9> he probably doesn't want to leave - Hogwarts is a very safe place [15:44] <Aislinn> I agree, expie [15:44] <Evreka> and being Head of a House must be a treat for someone so status minded [15:44] <MirandaV> I hope he stays....and Jane I don't think Lockhart knows anything anymore....hee hee [15:44] <JaneMarple9> yes Evereka [15:45] <Fechin> yes he loves it there but plus at this point no where is really safe [15:45] <Joyhawk2121> true Evreka [15:45] <katiebcat> I think may stay there if he feels safest at hogwarts [15:45] <auroraminerva> yeah, LOL evreka [15:45] <JaneMarple9> we'll see Mirand! Just promise you won't go on strike! [15:45] <Fechin> hogwarts is still as safe as u can get though...i dont think he liked running [15:45] *** aranel_parmadil has joined #lounge [15:45] <JaneMarple9> Your babies need you! [15:45] <MirandaV> Iol...okay I promise [15:45] <You_wont_know_who> Slughorn might stay or flee - it depends solely on himself [15:45] <Expelliarmas> i think DD's death shook him up [15:45] <nympheart> hi aranel [15:45] <aranel_parmadil> hi [15:45] <MirandaV> hi aranel [15:45] <auroraminerva> Running all the time must be a hard life [15:45] <Aislinn> yes, I think it did too, expie. But then it shook up everyone [15:45] <MafaldaWeasley> I think now he's going to be forced to pick a side [15:45] <fawkes28> Hi aranel smile [15:46] <You_wont_know_who> hi aranel [15:46] <Expelliarmas> heya, aranel we're discussing slughorn and whether he'll stay on at hogwarts [15:46] <Fechin> man its weird that i picture sluggy as another character already in the book [15:46] <Evreka> exactly aislinn [15:46] <JaneMarple9> dumbles death did shock slughorn [15:46] <Val_Halla> I agree Mafalda [15:46] <MafaldaWeasley> I don't think he can be on the wall forever and he's staying because of that [15:46] <auroraminerva> who fech? [15:46] <Evreka> What wall? [15:46] <aranel_parmadil> he's in hiding right? so he may feel he has to stay at hogwarts even tho dd isn't there any more [15:46] <MirandaV> I think Slughorn will stay...there or too many pros to staying and cons to leaving and we know that ol Sluggy likes his comforts [15:46] <Joyhawk2121> should all be scared? [15:46] <JaneMarple9> perhaps he wishes he gave the memories to dumbledore earlier [15:46] <aranel_parmadil> cos look what happens to those who run - karkarov? [15:47] <Evreka> urgh yes [15:47] <Fechin> LOL dont ask me why I dont its really stupid but I cant stop thinking in my mind of a person like Madeye...yes I know slug is bald etc etc but thats what pops in my mind madeye go figure rofl [15:47] <Aislinn> Firenze - Will he ever be accepted back into his herd or will he have to live out his days inside the castle? [15:47] <Evreka> not the same though - he isn't a DE [15:47] <MafaldaWeasley> he wasn't with the good nor the bads Evreka, he was trying to stay away, hidding all the time not be found by anybody [15:47] <mollywobbles23> castle [15:47] <Expelliarmas> I think Firenze is stuck at hogwarts [15:47] <Evreka> no idea [15:47] <fawkes28> it is not safe for him to be in the foresr [15:47] <You_wont_know_who> Firenze might stay [15:47] <nympheart> I think he'll help bring the centaurs to unite with the wizards [15:47] <JaneMarple9> yes he will stay at the castle [15:47] <Val_Halla> I think Firenze will rejoin the herd (or die) [15:47] <auroraminerva> lol [15:47] <Expelliarmas> the nag will have to teach with trelawney [15:47] <blackhippogriff> i think he will stay he can get killed if he goes [15:47] <Aislinn> I don't think that his herd would take him back [15:47] <Aislinn> They seem quite stubborn and proud [15:47] <JaneMarple9> the other centaurs have rejected him [15:47] <aranel_parmadil> I agree aislinn [15:47] <Fechin> I think its been made quite clear that they dont want him [15:48] <JaneMarple9> he seems settled at the castle [15:48] <MirandaV> I don't know that he will ever be accepted, but he may be able to act as an envoy to centaurs for the wizarding world [15:48] <fawkes28> I think it is better for him to be at Hogwarts - maybe he will share with Harry what is written in the stars [15:48] <Evreka> me neither Aislinn, unless dire things happen in DH [15:48] <dumbleydore18> I think he will be accepted back. After what happened with DD I think he would be, the safety and comfort of his own kind [15:48] <MafaldaWeasley> I think the herd is going to suffer when Bane dies, and then they will accept him back [15:48] <aranel_parmadil> wizards have hardly endeared themselves to such creatures [15:48] <Evreka> which it likely will [15:48] <You_wont_know_who> the centaurs need a shock to accept a banned member back [15:48] <Val_Halla> I think a shock is coming [15:48] <nympheart> I think they'll get that schock [15:48] <auroraminerva> I woundered abou Frienze too. The herd came to DD's funeral so maybe they will forgive him. [15:48] <Aislinn> maybe after all of the battling is done, if things directly affect the Centaurs, their view may change [15:48] <katiebcat> be could be. He could be following around with them till they accept him [15:48] <Evreka> Exactly YWKW [15:48] <MirandaV> brb [15:49] <dumbleydore18> i like that idea Aislinn [15:49] <nympheart> I'd kind of like to see Bane forced to admit Firenze was right [15:49] <Expelliarmas> the centaurs came to DD's funeral out of respect, they didnt mingle with anyone there though [15:49] <JaneMarple9> i can't see the centaurs accepting frienze again [15:49] <Evreka> he'll rather die I( think [15:49] <MafaldaWeasley> I think Bane is dying soon [15:49] <Fechin> maybe DD dying is the shock? [15:49] <Expelliarmas> that won't be enough to get them to take firenze back [15:49] <Evreka> no, they don't care that much for humans [15:50] <JaneMarple9> they seem to stick to strict views very much like the Ministry [15:50] <Expelliarmas> and Firenze may not want to go back; he's stubborn too [15:50] <MafaldaWeasley> I agree Evreka [15:50] <Hermeeownee> why do you think bane is dying? [15:50] <Fechin> maybe they were lying about all that and now thats hes gone they know how important dd was [15:50] <JaneMarple9> firenze has been at teaching for too long [15:50] <MafaldaWeasley> because he's a symbo of intolerance. I don't think he'll survive [15:50] <Aislinn> too long? [15:50] <katiebcat> I think he could live a long happy life and be accepted back into his herd [15:50] *** cloudpic has quit [Bye] [15:50] <JaneMarple9> two years [15:50] <Aislinn> you mean, too long to return to the forest? [15:50] <Val_Halla> I think the MOM is gonna have to learn to play nice with other races [15:50] <fawkes28> i think he will share responsibility of teaching with trelawney [15:50] <Evreka> Is that long? [15:50] <JaneMarple9> yes Aislinn [15:51] *** CedrellaBlack has joined #lounge [15:51] <You_wont_know_who> Trelwaney hates him [15:51] <nympheart> agreed Val [15:51] <JaneMarple9> pretty long in Centaur years [15:51] <Expelliarmas> I also think Firenze enjoys the interaction with humans [15:51] *** CedrellaBlack has quit [Bye] [15:51] <blackhippogriff> thats true [15:51] <aranel_parmadil> I wonder what state of fitness mcgonagle is in after that attack on her in HBP. What strength will she have left to keep hogwarts together? [15:51] <Fechin> can him or trelawney teach another subject? [15:51] <Evreka> Why? they seem to live for ages...? [15:51] <JaneMarple9> ahh but Trelawnly may not be teaching for book 7 [15:51] <Expelliarmas> so unless something changes as to the view of the centaurs, he'll stay at hogwarts [15:51] <Aislinn> Flitwick - As head of Ravenclaw house, does he know anything about Ravenclaw that could help Harry on his horcrux hunt? [15:51] <MirandaV> Well in my opinion is about darn time the do Val [15:51] <MirandaV> oops they [15:51] <Evreka> Sweet idea, Aislinn! [15:52] <Evreka> I doubt it though... [15:52] <JaneMarple9> frienze has had too much wizard interaction to return to the centaurs [15:52] <nympheart> I don't think so, I think he's more connected to the goblins [15:52] <JaneMarple9> i do like that idea [15:52] <MafaldaWeasley> Flitiwick, I don't know...I think he has been blackmailed... [15:52] <Expelliarmas> Flitwick would be helpful to Harry and you never know what he might know [15:52] <katiebcat> I think so because knowledge cuould help harry [15:52] <JaneMarple9> never thought of it before [15:52] <You_wont_know_who> Flitwick might train Harry as he was a champion in dueling [15:52] <MirandaV> Flitwich was a champion dueler...I think that might be important [15:52] <Aislinn> The Ravenclaws haven't really played the role yet that I think they are due to play. [15:52] <JaneMarple9> and Flitwick was injured by Snape [15:52] <fawkes28> flitwick is a quiet guy - he may come out of the woodwork and help [15:52] <nympheart> I forgot about that ywkw [15:52] <MafaldaWeasley> good idea ywkw [15:52] <Aislinn> Flitwick will probably be part of it when they do [15:52] <Fechin> very good point [15:52] <MirandaV> Ravenclaw will have their day [15:52] <JaneMarple9> when the great battle was held [15:53] <Evreka> true Aislinn, but why wouod it come from Flitwick? [15:53] <Expelliarmas> well, flitwick got ambushed by Snape [15:53] <Fechin> hes the head of house [15:53] <dumbleydore18> Flitwick giving help? I don't see him knowing a lot about Rowena Ravenclaw, but he might know something. Maybe enough to tell them what her artifact looked like as a horcrux. [15:53] <Aislinn> as head of that house, he epitomises their qualities [15:53] <JaneMarple9> yes I like the idea of Flitwick helping harry [15:53] <auroraminerva> I think everyone is going to learn that they have to work together magical creatures and wizards [15:53] <Evreka> We haven't learned of the other three founders from the respective Heads? [15:53] <Aislinn> and probably has a lot of useful knowledge [15:53] <JaneMarple9> with the ravenclaw connection [15:53] <blackhippogriff> but what has he done to help [15:53] <fawkes28> great point, aurora [15:54] <JaneMarple9> and he was a duelling champ - useful thing to be This post has been edited by fawkes28: Mar 4 2007, 05:43 PM |

[15:54] <MafaldaWeasley> I think the ravenclaw day has to do with Luna, really, not Flitwick
[15:54] <MirandaV> Well he helped guard the SS [15:54] <Expelliarmas> he could teach Harry some useful charms, but Hermione is really available for that [15:54] <Val_Halla> If DD didn't know what the Ravenclaw heirloom was, it seems doubtful Flitwick would [15:54] <aranel_parmadil> how well did flitwick know lily - remember her wand was supposed to be particularly good for charms [15:54] <Expelliarmas> oh, very good point [15:54] <katiebcat> I bet [15:54] <MafaldaWeasley> ahh good thought aranel! [15:54] <Evreka> And DD trusted the knowledge of Horcruxes ONLY to Harry [15:54] <JaneMarple9> thats interesting aranel! [15:54] <MirandaV> gp aranel [15:54] <Expelliarmas> funny though, flitwick has never discussed lily [15:54] <mollywobbles23> yes, very aranel. [15:54] <Evreka> If he refused to tell Minerva, he won't tell Filius either I think [15:54] <MirandaV> was he the charms teacher back then? [15:55] <aranel_parmadil> I remember it was specifically mentioned and JKR has said that it was relevant [15:55] <Expelliarmas> more than likely, Miranda [15:55] <JaneMarple9> i forgot that flitwick seemed fond of lily [15:55] <MirandaV> Yeah, since we've never heard different [15:55] <Expelliarmas> slughorn went on and on about lily [15:55] <Evreka> Did he? When? [15:55] <blackhippogriff> in the 5th book [15:55] <Evreka> As in Did Flitwick? [15:55] <nympheart> flitwick is focused on teaching his subject, he may know quite a lot about Lily that he hasn't talked about [15:55] *** katiebcat has quit [Bye] [15:55] <Fechin> harry does not have to tell him about the hocruxes just ask about anything at the school realted to the founders [15:56] <auroraminerva> Luna! great idea. She is a gossip [15:56] <Joyhawk2121> He did think she had lots of talent [15:56] <JaneMarple9> that was before book 5, when flitwick mentioned lily [15:56] <JaneMarple9> must had been book 1 or 2 [15:56] <Evreka> kk [15:56] <Expelliarmas> Luna certainly hears and sees a lot; and she's rather smart [15:56] <Fechin> i really need to re read some of these bokks [15:56] *** NYBookworm has quit [Bye] [15:56] <Evreka> You HAVEN't? [15:57] <Fechin> some more than others tongue [15:57] <JaneMarple9> oh Luna is going to be very important [15:57] <MafaldaWeasley> yes jane I agree [15:57] <JaneMarple9> I hope she knows something about the ravenclaw relic [15:57] <blackhippogriff> what about lunas dad he cuoledhelp harry [15:57] <MirandaV> I just reread 1-4 to prepare for RG and for the life of me I can't remember flitwick mentioning Lily [15:57] <Expelliarmas> let's remember not to use all caps, folks [15:57] <Evreka> me neither, Miranda [15:58] <Expelliarmas> i don't remember that either; i know slughorn did [15:58] <Evreka> that's what's so odd [15:58] <MirandaV> I lurv Luna [15:58] <aranel_parmadil> Luna was sort of mentioned in GOF - at the beginning when they were on their way to the world cup amos diggory said the lovegoods lived nearby [15:58] <Fechin> i have a question are invisibility cloaks really rare? they seem to be [15:58] <Aislinn> Will Flitwick survive to the end of the school year? Why or why not? Will his part-goblin ancestry play any part in Book 7? [15:58] <MirandaV> Slughorn did in book 6 yes [15:58] *** You_wont_know_who left #lounge [] [15:58] <JaneMarple9> yes flitwick will survive [15:58] <mollywobbles23> oh, I forgot he was part-goblin [15:58] <nympheart> I think he'll survive, and I think his goblin blood will help him to connect the Order to the goblins [15:58] <Expelliarmas> he doesnt seem to be a member of the Order; but he could be useful for his contacts [15:58] <MirandaV> He's a dueling champion...I pitty the fool who challenges him [15:58] <fawkes28> i would love if he ancestry played a role in DH but i dont know if it will [15:58] <dumbleydore18> Flitwick will survive and I think he might rally other goblins and elves together [15:58] <MafaldaWeasley> I never saw him in danger of getting killed... [15:58] <JaneMarple9> Ah! He's part goblin? [15:58] <Evreka> I doubt it will, since Jo said it was somewhere in her less important notes [15:59] <JaneMarple9> I never knew that! [15:59] <Fechin> Maybe I mean some people have to die. and I dunno lol [15:59] <Evreka> she never bothered to tell WB about it [15:59] <Hermeeownee> its hard to figure out which 2 (at least) will die... [15:59] <mollywobbles23> yeah, well, they didn't include Hagrid being half-giant, so... [15:59] <Evreka> so no, I don't think that connection will ever be used [15:59] <Expelliarmas> in the overall scheme of things, I don't see flitwick as that important. we also don't know the attitude of goblins to part-goblins [15:59] <JaneMarple9> i think flitwick will survive and teach for many more years [15:59] <Evreka> Actually, they did [16:00] <MirandaV> I didn't realize he was half-goblin...no wonder he's so teeny [16:00] *** CarpeDiem has joined #lounge [16:00] <nympheart> hi carpe [16:00] <MirandaV> hi carpe [16:00] <MafaldaWeasley> hello CD [16:00] <mollywobbles23> I'm more interesting in his dueling abillities [16:00] <Aislinn> hi carpe [16:00] <fawkes28> hi carpe [16:00] <Evreka> Jo told his actor before the first movie about his ancestry [16:00] <mollywobbles23> abilities* [16:00] <CarpeDiem> Hi all! [16:00] <JaneMarple9> the ravenclaws have to have some stability [16:00] <MirandaV> Me too molly [16:00] <Evreka> hi Carpe :bye: [16:00] <Aislinn> Hagrid - Will Hagrid head Gryffindor house? Will he try and take on Grawp as an groundskeeping assistant, and will he be successful? [16:00] <Evreka> oh, hum, meant to wave to you.. [16:00] <JaneMarple9> yes his duelling abilities are to his advantage [16:01] <JaneMarple9> yes he will [16:01] <MafaldaWeasley> Nop, Hagrid didn't finish school. [16:01] <MirandaV> Do we even know for sure if Hagrid was a Gryffindor [16:01] <mollywobbles23> I think he will be head of house. Don't know about Grawp, though. [16:01] <Expelliarmas> I don't see Hagrid as head of house; he was expelled and has not been publicly cleared [16:01] <JaneMarple9> i would like hagrid to be head of gryffindor [16:01] <MirandaV> I didn't think we did [16:01] <fawkes28> i would love if Hagrid lead the house [16:01] <Aislinn> I think that Hagrid will be Head of Gryffindor house [16:01] <Evreka> I think Hagrid will likely be the H o G [16:01] <Joyhawk2121> I don't think so [16:01] <nympheart> He might be made head of gryffindor, just because of McG's respect for DD and DD's trust for Hagrid [16:01] <fawkes28> why not? i think DD would have wanted him to [16:01] <Hermeeownee> I don't think Hagrid can lead Gryffindor house- he isn't a fully qualified wizard. [16:01] <Evreka> but I can't see him sleep in the castle [16:01] <Fechin> Yes I think he could be. [16:01] <mollywobbles23> I don't think his having been expelled has nothing to do with it. He was a teacher, wasn't he? [16:01] <Aislinn> I think we were given a hint to that when McG asked him to be part of the discussion about the school [16:01] <auroraminerva> I thought he was cleares [16:01] <JaneMarple9> because remember, when the emergency meeting of the head of houses when Dumbledore died... [16:01] <auroraminerva> cleared [16:01] <mollywobbles23> exactly, Aislinn [16:01] <CarpeDiem> I would wonder about allowing a non-teacher head a school house. It would be a great thought though. We need to see more of Gwarp and his abilities before anyone would be comfortable letting him do much at all. [16:02] <Evreka> Um true, Hermee [16:02] <Fechin> correct [16:02] <fawkes28> McG respects Hagrid as well - it wouldnt surprise me at all if he was head of Gryffindor [16:02] <MafaldaWeasley> I would love him to be, but I doubt. Without DD if he manages to keep his job will be good enough [16:02] <MirandaV> Repeat...do we even know that Hagrid was a Gryffindor? [16:02] <dumbleydore18> Hagrid is the groundkeeper and will always be the groundskeeper, not as a head of anything, eceptcreatures class [16:02] <mollywobbles23> but, Hagrid is a a teacher [16:02] <nympheart> yes, we do Miranda [16:02] <Aislinn> yes, miranda [16:02] <Expelliarmas> as for Grawp ... the less I say about that character the better [16:02] <JaneMarple9> mcgonagall insisted that hagird represented gryffindor [16:02] <MirandaV> Oh...where was that...the lexicon?? [16:02] <fawkes28> lol expie [16:02] <Fechin> DD died changes a lot of things [16:02] <Evreka> Yes we do Miranda, Jo has said so [16:02] <CarpeDiem> Doh! You're right Molly! Where's my head today? smile [16:02] <Evreka> lol Expie [16:03] <Hermeeownee> it would be hard for the kids to respect him as H of H if he can't do all that the 7 years can [16:03] <mollywobbles23> 's okay [16:03] <MirandaV> Oh...I missed that...good I'm glad to have that cleared up...I'd been confused [16:03] <Aislinn> Hagrid has been a teacher for years now - it is not that big of a stretch to consider him to be Head of House [16:03] <aranel_parmadil> I could do without grawp, I must admit [16:03] <JaneMarple9> Grawp is annoying - just a background character [16:03] <MafaldaWeasley> Yes Fechin. that's why i think if he manages to keep his job, it will be good enough [16:03] <Fechin> McG will not get rid of him [16:03] <JaneMarple9> i hope we won't see much of him in book 7 [16:03] <mollywobbles23> Grawp better help with the giants, otherwise I'll be annoyed. [16:03] <MirandaV> Then yes...I think Hagrid will be head of house [16:03] <Expelliarmas> Hagrid has been a teacher, but not necessarily a fine teacher [16:03] <Evreka> Me too aranel! [16:03] <aranel_parmadil> he better have some function! [16:03] <JaneMarple9> we seen less of Grawp in book 6 [16:03] <MafaldaWeasley> She won't but there will be a reuninon with the Concil [16:04] <Aislinn> well, being a fine teacher does not seem to be a pre-requisite, expie smile [16:04] <MirandaV> true Expie [16:04] <Fechin> Ok if Hagrid is not the head of G who is? [16:04] <Evreka> But there must be some reason for Jo to include that B e a s t [16:04] <auroraminerva> now that Malfoy's not there to bother Hagrid I think he will excell [16:04] <MirandaV> Yeah...Snape wasn't a fine teacher [16:04] <Expelliarmas> Hagrid will have plenty to do, what with teaching Grawp to spell, tie his shoelaces and whatnot [16:04] * fawkes28 whacks Aislinn lightly [16:04] <Aislinn> exactly, Miranda! [16:04] <Val_Halla> brb [16:04] <blackhippogriff> i think he will who elas couled [16:04] <JaneMarple9> Gwarp might go and work with Madam Maxime [16:04] <mollywobbles23> I can't imagine any of the other teachers being head of Gryffindor.

[16:05] <Aislinn> he should be able to now, aurora [16:05] <Expelliarmas> We have any number of WEasleys, except Percy, who could do it [16:05] <Fechin> yes [16:05] <mollywobbles23> But, they don't even teacher!

If he survives, will he and Maxine marry and live out the rest of their days in Hagrid's hut? [16:05] <aranel_parmadil> sorry miranda - I was joking! [16:05] <Evreka> Do we know that Miranda?

[16:06] <dumbleydore18> well guys I am swamped with homework, I thought that I could chat and do homework at the same time, but it's not looking like it. So until next time... bye1 [16:06] <auroraminerva> jo said she wanted to "torture Umbridge a little more, so I don't think she would get such an honor [16:06] <JaneMarple9> well if hagrid and maxime move into the hut.... [16:06] <Expelliarmas> No, they shall move to France and raise huge kids there [16:06] <Aislinn> I don't know if Maxime would be happy in the hut, and it would be a tight squeeze for the 2 of them [16:06] <nympheart> bye dumbley [16:06] <MirandaV> Awwww...little half giants running around [16:06] <aranel_parmadil> by dd [16:06] <mollywobbles23> Why would she give up being headmistress of Beaxboutons?

I'm not so sure about the marriage thing...lol tight squeeze - exactly Aislinn! [16:06] <fawkes28> that would be a nice ending - but I am pretty sure Hagrid will die [16:06] <JaneMarple9> they might need to build a extension or two? biggrin [16:06] <MirandaV> lol Aislinn [16:07] <Expelliarmas> I think so too, fawkes [16:07] <mollywobbles23> I hate to say it, but I think you're right, fawkes. [16:07] <nympheart> well, she has already given up time as headmistress to go with Hagrid to help with war efforts [16:07] *** BellatrixPotter has joined #lounge [16:07] <MirandaV> fawkes...you might be right happy_crying [16:07] <Fechin> i always thought Hagrid might die [16:07] <Aislinn> it is sad to say that he is at huge risk [16:07] <nympheart> hi bella [16:07] <mollywobbles23> that was the summer. She was back for the school term [16:07] <BellatrixPotter> hi [16:07] <Evreka> brb [16:07] <MirandaV> hi bella [16:07] <Fechin> i thought he might die in 4 so lol [16:07] <Expelliarmas> nice pun, Aislinn [16:07] <Fechin> and 5 and 6 [16:07] <Aislinn> thanks, expie smile [16:07] <MirandaV> hee hee huge [16:08] <fawkes28> wink [16:08] <JaneMarple9> I am not sure [16:08] <Fechin> man if hagrid went then harry would really lose adult friends [16:08] <JaneMarple9> Hagrid is a good father figure for harry [16:08] <JaneMarple9> and there isn't many left [16:08] *** JaneMarple9 has quit [Bye] [16:08] <Aislinn> oh, I don't see him as a father figure at all [16:08] *** JaneMarple9 has joined #lounge [16:08] <Fechin> Lupin would be like the oly one left [16:08] <MirandaV> Harry's got all the Weasley's still and lots of members of the Order [16:08] <MafaldaWeasley> I hope he doesn't die...I think he won't [16:08] <Joyhawk2121> I hope Hagrid survives [16:08] <aranel_parmadil> JKR has systematically removed harry's support systems [16:08] <mollywobbles23> I see Hagrid like the crazy uncle. [16:08] <Expelliarmas> neither do I, Aislinn, i see him as a good friend to Harry [16:08] *** NYBookworm has joined #lounge [16:08] <mollywobbles23> with a heart of gold, of course. [16:08] <nympheart> me too molly, not really a father [16:08] <MafaldaWeasley> wb, NYB [16:09] <Fechin> i dont see him as a father figure but someone he looks up tooo etc etc [16:09] <MirandaV> He's too irresponsible to be a father figure...he's more of a brother figure [16:09] *** JaneMarple9 has quit [Bye] [16:09] <blackhippogriff> harry has lost so maney people it wouled be sad if hagrid died [16:09] <fawkes28> he is a friend - an older friend - sometimes older people can be wiser but then they can also be just plain silly too wink [16:09] <MirandaV> the one you get into scrapes with [16:09] <Joyhawk2121> I agree MirandaV [16:09] <auroraminerva> they said there are goin to be to traumatic deaths in DH, and I can't see or don't want to see Harry, Hermionie, and Ron will die [16:09] <Expelliarmas> Hagrid has not been irresponsible, if anything had Harry been his responsibility he would have taken very good care of him [16:09] <aranel_parmadil> I agree fawkes - look at hagrid's attitude to interesting creatures and the trouble that causes [16:10] <Expelliarmas> he has that whole monster fixation thing, though [16:10] <Fechin> the one thing hagrid has going for him is hes not much of a threat to vol is he? [16:10] *** JaneMarple9 has joined #lounge [16:10] <JaneMarple9> testing [16:10] <mollywobbles23> I think if Hagrid dies it will be doing something heroic. I can see him charging a bunch of DEs, with all these spells hitting him until finally, he falls and the ground shakes. [16:10] <Joyhawk2121> true Expe [16:10] <JaneMarple9> yep! [16:10] <fawkes28> we see you [16:10] <Aislinn> Grubbly-Plank - will she do anymore substituting in Book 7? Will we find out anything more about this mysterious pipe-smoking creatures expert? [16:10] <mollywobbles23> naw [16:10] <aranel_parmadil> I kinda like her! [16:10] <JaneMarple9> good - taken off my cloak! [16:10] <MafaldaWeasley> I think she'll be at Hagrid's place [16:10] <mollywobbles23> she's not that important [16:10] <Expelliarmas> I think she'll have to do a lot of substituting; Hagrid will be doing a lot of work for the Order [16:10] <Fechin> ok gotta get readt for work this place is cool see you next week smile [16:11] <MafaldaWeasley> I think hagrid will be too busy to be at Hogwarts [16:11] <aranel_parmadil> bye fechin [16:11] <nympheart> bye fechin [16:11] *** Fechin left #lounge [] [16:11] <fawkes28> i thought she was a very good teacher [16:11] <MafaldaWeasley> bye fechin [16:11] <MirandaV> I don't mean irresponsible in the classic sense...I guess I should say lacking in common sense about his interesting creatures Expie [16:11] <aranel_parmadil> I agree fawkes! [16:11] <JaneMarple9> Well if Hagrud becomes head of Gryffindor I would likee Grubbly Plank to be Care of Magical Creatures teacher [16:11] <Aislinn> she was a good teacher - if Hagrid takes on Head of House, maybe she could take on Care of Magical Creatures [16:11] <MirandaV> Hmmm...maybe [16:11] <Aislinn> lol Jane [16:11] <mollywobbles23> well, Hagrid can be both. [16:11] <Joyhawk2121> yeah, maybe [16:12] <MafaldaWeasley> or she can be both [16:12] <fawkes28> it would be nice to see her teaching again - i wonder if she is any good at transfiguration [16:12] <aranel_parmadil> she was very competent - knew what she was doing [16:12] *** Theoriser has quit [Bye] [16:12] <JaneMarple9> me and Aislinn just had a mind meld! [16:12] <mollywobbles23> If he did, would he move into the castle and out of the hut? [16:12] <auroraminerva> Why couldn't he be head of house and teacher? Mcgl was/is [16:12] *** Theoriser has joined #lounge [16:12] <MirandaV> So is Flitwick [16:12] <mollywobbles23> Can you image Hagrid having an office? [16:12] <MirandaV> and Sluggy [16:12] *** BellatrixPotter has quit [Bye] [16:12] <auroraminerva> snape [16:12] <auroraminerva> snape [16:12] <MafaldaWeasley> and dealing with all that paper work?? [16:13] <Aislinn> no molly - he is definitely an outdoor kind of guy [16:13] <MirandaV> He'd probably have lots of interesting creatures in there molly [16:13] <JaneMarple9> perhaps Hagrid will have a assistant [16:13] <MirandaV> scary, but interesting [16:13] <JaneMarple9> to help him work as head of gryffindor? [16:13] <JaneMarple9> i think he'd love being inside the castle! [16:13] <MafaldaWeasley> I doubt he'll be kept as teacher, Jane. i think he'll just be with the order [16:13] <auroraminerva> Gwarp? [16:13] <Joyhawk2121> yeah one of the creatures he loves so much [16:14] <mollywobbles23> I think Hagrid may get an office, but still live in the hut. [16:14] <mollywobbles23> He'll have office hours!!! [16:14] <mollywobbles23> lol [16:14] <JaneMarple9> perhaps molly [16:14] <auroraminerva> he could be the new gameskeeper [16:14] <auroraminerva> lol [16:14] <Aislinn> Moody - he never got the chance to teach. Will he teach in the future? He's no longer an Auror, but might McGonagall still use him as extra Hogwarts security or something like that? [16:14] <JaneMarple9> but i think hagrid deserves to be in the castle [16:14] <MirandaV> Yeah...can't you just see Grawp walking around in the castle...the first years would pee their pants...heck so would the year 7s for the most part [16:14] <fawkes28> i dont think he will want to be at hogwarts at all [16:14] <JaneMarple9> yes i hope he will teach again [16:14] <auroraminerva> lol [16:15] <Joyhawk2121> lol [16:15] <MafaldaWeasley> Imagine...with all that lack of pacience he has? naa. [16:15] <nympheart> I think he may teach [16:15] <fawkes28> he wants to be where the action is [16:15] <MafaldaWeasley> patience sorry [16:15] <mollywobbles23> I think Moody is too anxious to be where the action is. I don't see him teaching now. [16:15] <auroraminerva> he sat at the funeral [16:15] <CarpeDiem> I think if Moody is at Hogwarts it will be on security or Order buiness. I have a feeling he and Harry may have a few things to discuss as well. [16:15] <aranel_parmadil> I can't see moody being happy at being stuck at hogwarts [16:15] *** Poet has joined #lounge [16:15] <MirandaV> She might..he's still in the order isn't he...just as a guard [16:15] <aranel_parmadil> I think moody will die, actually [16:15] <JaneMarple9> moody seems a decent choice as DADA teacher [16:15] <CarpeDiem> Hiya Poet [16:15] <nympheart> Moody will find action wherever he is [16:15] <auroraminerva> Moody will definatily join the fight [16:15] <JaneMarple9> hi poet [16:15] <nympheart> hi poet [16:15] <Poet> howdy [16:15] <auroraminerva> hi [16:15] <fawkes28> it is a good chance he will, aranel [16:15] <aranel_parmadil> hi poet [16:16] <Joyhawk2121> hi poet [16:16] <MirandaV> hi poet [16:16] <mollywobbles23> Did Moody agree to do it himself in GOF or did imposter Moody agree to teaching? It's the former, right? [16:16] <Aislinn> I don't see him wanting to teach - I think the only reason he was going to do it was because of the specific circumstances of the TWT that year, and DD asking him as a favor [16:16] <aranel_parmadil> Moody is always going to be where the action is [16:16] <MirandaV> he's willing to die for the cause...we know that [16:16] <mollywobbles23> yeah, that's what I was thinking Aislinn. [16:16] <aranel_parmadil> former, molly [16:16] <MafaldaWeasley> Moody agreed molly, but because of DD [16:16] <auroraminerva> former that's why he was attacked [16:16] <nympheart> I think the real mad-eye agreed molly [16:16] <fawkes28> yes, the real moody agreed [16:16] <mollywobbles23> yeah, and Voldy wasn't back yet. [16:16] <MirandaV> I agree Aislinn [16:16] <Poet> It would be fun to see him prowling around Hogwarts with all of his paranoia and all [16:16] <auroraminerva> it was the day before they left for school [16:16] *** MirandaV has quit [Bye] [16:16] *** MirandaV has joined #lounge [16:16] <fawkes28> moody is an auror at heart not a teacher [16:16] <Aislinn> I think it was mainly to provide protection and keep watch on Karkaroff, among other things [16:16] <mollywobbles23> it would, Poet. [16:16] <MirandaV> my screen was getting all jumpy tongue [16:16] <aranel_parmadil> I agree fawkes [16:17] <MirandaV> Yes, fawkes [16:17] <Joyhawk2121> I agree Fawkes [16:17] <MirandaV> and Aislinn [16:17] <nympheart> he did agree to teach once, though [16:17] *** antonin has joined #lounge [16:17] *** antonin has quit [Bye] [16:17] <MafaldaWeasley> he had nothing better to do hehehe [16:17] <mollywobbles23> He won't again, though. There's too much to do for the Order. [16:17] <auroraminerva> we don't even know if the school will be open yet [16:17] <aranel_parmadil> but only as a favour to DD and under special circumstances nymph [16:17] <MirandaV> for specific reasons though nymph...unless McG has ones as compelling I don't see it happening [16:17] <blackhippogriff> that was not him teach [16:17] <Joyhawk2121> a favor th DD maybe? [16:17] <mollywobbles23> We're assuming it will be, auroraminerva. [16:17] <Joyhawk2121> I mean to sorry [16:18] <MirandaV> Oh...it seems most likey aurora since Jo was talking about the new DADA teacher [16:18] <MafaldaWeasley> yes, joy. more of a friendship than favor I would say [16:18] <Aislinn> Will we get to hear anything more about Trelawney or her classes through Ginny or one of the other students who are still taking Divination? As long as she stays at the school she's safe, right? Will she survive to the end of the school year? Why or why not? [16:18] <Poet> I think from Jo's answers about needing a DADA teacher, that the school will indeed be open, [16:18] <Expelliarmas> I think if Trelawney sets one toe off Hogwarts she's a dead duck [16:18] <Evreka> Well I don't think ANYONE is safe there now [16:18] <aranel_parmadil> I think trelawney will live through it [16:18] <auroraminerva> if it is do you think we will see it? Because Harry said he wasn't going back. Could he do both? [16:18] <MirandaV> I don't know that taking Trelawney would do anything...she doesn't remember her real predictions [16:18] <Evreka> but I guess she is safer there than on other places [16:18] <nympheart> I think she'll live long enough to make one more prediction at least [16:18] <aranel_parmadil> she won't leave hogwarts [16:19] <Poet> She's such a sad spectacle of a teacher, I'd rather not see her killed, if that makes any sense [16:19] <mollywobbles23> I think Trelawney will leave because she's fed up with Firenze. DD is not there to prevent her from leaving anymore and McG doesn't know who made the prophecy and she hates Trelawney and Harry won't be there. I think Trelawney is in great danger. [16:19] <MirandaV> Harry will be at Hogwarts at some point I'm sure...there may be a horcrux there after all [16:19] <MafaldaWeasley> She doesn't remember but she does make new ones Miranda, all concerned to the LV [16:19] <Expelliarmas> I disagree Evreka, Hogwarts is still a safe place; it was only attacked because of a student [16:19] <mollywobbles23> what does she call Firenze? [16:19] <MirandaV> True Mafalda [16:19] <MirandaV> the nag [16:19] <Expelliarmas> Dobbins [16:19] <aranel_parmadil> the nag [16:19] <mollywobbles23> that's right.lol [16:19] <auroraminerva> good point Miranda [16:19] <Evreka> but that was with DD alibve... [16:19] <aranel_parmadil> and dobbin [16:20] <Poet> I agree somewhat mollywobbles23 , however McGonagall IS one that stood up for Trelawney at the end of Book 5 and helped Trelawney to stay [16:20] <Evreka> *alive [16:20] <CarpeDiem> I wonder if Trelaney has a good predeiction or two left in her. She's such a fun character - I'd love to have her stick around Hogwarts. It would be much needed comeic relief ifd nothign else [16:20] <Poet> ...I mean she helped convince her to stay (sort of) [16:20] <MirandaV> Yes...and McG may now about the prophecy...just not the wording [16:20] <mollywobbles23> yes, but that was more out of hatred for Umbridge, than loyalty to Trelawney [16:20] <MirandaV> oops know [16:20] <Evreka> precisely Miranda [16:20] <Joyhawk2121> she is important [16:20] <Poet> I agree, it would interesting to see what kind of predictions she makes amongst the students and staff, especially with this war going on [16:21] <auroraminerva> It would be cool to see another predicton [16:21] <Evreka> or at least her health is at stake [16:21] <aranel_parmadil> I think trelawney may have one more prediction in her [16:21] <Aislinn> yes carpe, she is good comic relief [16:21] <Expelliarmas> Trelawney can still channel another prediction [16:21] <Evreka> she might yes [16:21] <MirandaV> I can tell you her predictions...everyone is going to die because Mercury is in retrograde [16:21] <fawkes28> yes she is Aislinn [16:21] <JaneMarple9> whats question please? smile [16:21] <MafaldaWeasley> hehe Miranda [16:21] <aranel_parmadil> lol miranda [16:21] <Aislinn> I think that she is at risk for being kidnapped in the next book, as the fact that she made the Prophecy is something that will be compelling to LV [16:22] <JaneMarple9> trelawnly is in danger [16:22] <Poet> Exept for Harry who will now have 24 children and become ruler of the universe (forgive my silliness) [16:22] <aranel_parmadil> if lv finds out it was her [16:22] <Aislinn> we're talking about Trelawney, Jane [16:22] <MafaldaWeasley> i agree Aislinn [16:22] <Expelliarmas> trelawney though will probably be with winky in a 12-step program [16:22] <JaneMarple9> she is in danger for falling into voldie's clurches [16:22] <auroraminerva> I was wondering what role Kreacher might play in DH. I mean he has to do what Harry says, and he might be hiding things [16:22] <aranel_parmadil> lol expel! [16:22] <JaneMarple9> great idea Expel [16:22] <auroraminerva> and all the house eleves [16:22] <MirandaV> Yes, Aislinn, but I think she will stay at Hogwarts....hahaha Expie...the Hogwarts AA chapter [16:22] <Joyhawk2121> lol Expe [16:22] <Poet> I totally agree about the kidnapping danger. We already have some shop owners in Diagon Alley who have disappeared - very funny circumstances [16:22] <CarpeDiem> Did Snape know it was Trelawny making the prediction? If so, would he have told LV? Who in their right mind would believe a prediction from her? [16:22] <JaneMarple9> start their own order - sherry annoymous!! [16:23] <auroraminerva> Snape was the one who overheard [16:23] <Evreka> yes Carpe [16:23] <Evreka> I think so [16:23] <Aislinn> If Trelawney survives, how do you see her spending her retirement years? [16:23] <aranel_parmadil> so it depends on if you think snape is a bad guy or not [16:23] <MirandaV> Yes he was....it's odd isn't it that LV doesn't seem to have cared who made the predictions [16:23] <Evreka> drinking.... [16:23] <JaneMarple9> in saint mungos [16:23] <auroraminerva> in her attic. lol [16:23] <Expelliarmas> trying to kick her unfortunate sherry problem [16:23] <fawkes28> with a bottle of sherry and gazing into a crystal ball [16:23] <Poet> I think I see her spending her days in the Three Broomsticks [16:23] <aranel_parmadil> telling everyone all about the major part she played in lv's downfall [16:23] <Joyhawk2121> you guys are funny [16:24] <JaneMarple9> sharing the ward with lockheart and the longbottoms [16:24] <nympheart> with a shop, predicting muggle futures [16:24] <Poet> I love it aranel_parmadil [16:24] <blackhippogriff> a crazy old hag in a hut [16:24] <Evreka> Hi Poet! [16:24] <MirandaV> As a palmistry reader in SoCal [16:24] <MafaldaWeasley> I see her kept at Hogwarts due to her legendary fame hehe [16:24] <mollywobbles23> shuffling around in her house, making predictions to no one in particular. Even the mice will get sick of being told they're going to die every day. [16:24] <JaneMarple9> oh great idea! The new barmaid at the three broomsticks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [16:24] <Evreka> lol Jane [16:24] <CarpeDiem> Maybe she'll get scared straight...become a legitimate teacher at Hogwarts. smile [16:24] <auroraminerva> wouldn't it be cool if they finally cured the Lonbottoms [16:24] <Expelliarmas> I can totally see Trelawney in Los Angeles ... totally [16:24] <JaneMarple9> because Madame Rosemerta is out of action now [16:24] <MafaldaWeasley> haha Expie [16:24] <MirandaV> Me too Expie [16:24] <mollywobbles23> is she, Jane? [16:24] <Expelliarmas> oh, CD, what would be the fun of that [16:24] <Joyhawk2121> maybe she'll open her on shop reading palms [16:24] <Aislinn> Jo said we'll see Umbridge again because she wants to "torture" her a bit more. Umbridge made a lot of enemies amongst the Hogwarts staff and students - many of whom are already moving into the work place. Will anyone she knew from Hogwarts be so lucky as to get to help Jo in “torturing” Umbridge? [16:25] <JaneMarple9> well she was imperivioused [16:25] *** Julianna07 has joined #lounge [16:25] <Hermeeownee> do you think Madame Rosmerta will be punished? [16:25] <JaneMarple9> she'd be in st mungos now [16:25] <Expelliarmas> if anyone deserves to be tortured, it's that broad [16:25] <mollywobbles23> yeah, but does that mean she will leave? [16:25] <MirandaV> Goodness I hope so....down with Umbridge!!!!!!!! [16:25] <aranel_parmadil> I think harry would like that job, aislinn! [16:25] <mollywobbles23> I don't think it was as bad as that. [16:25] <MirandaV> Get her [16:25] <CarpeDiem> I think the Weasley Twins would be a great "device" smile [16:25] <Aislinn> I really hope that Umbridge gets her Karmic retribution [16:25] <Expelliarmas> the line forms to the right, aranel [16:25] <nympheart> oooh, if the twins ever see her again... [16:25] <JaneMarple9> I know! Get Umbridge to Hagrids job [16:25] <MafaldaWeasley> hehe she'll have to deal with Fred and George [16:25] <mollywobbles23> I think if anything she feels incredibly guilty. (Rosmerta, not Umbridge) [16:26] <Expelliarmas> the twins could test some interesting new products on her [16:26] <Evreka> LOL Jane! [16:26] <Poet> Definitely the twins. We know they are providing goods to the Ministry [16:26] <JaneMarple9> let her take care of the lovely centaurs [16:26] <Expelliarmas> she could be a Weasley tester [16:26] <nympheart> lol, expie, that would be great [16:26] <JaneMarple9> and the thestrals [16:26] <MirandaV> Maybe the twins can make a swamp on her face...that way the inside is reflected on the outside [16:26] <aranel_parmadil> hee hee expel [16:26] <Joyhawk2121> brb [16:26] <MafaldaWeasley> I think she'll be checking the Weasley products before they go for sale [16:26] <Hermeeownee> product tester for Fred and George sounds like a appropriate job for Umbridge [16:26] <blackhippogriff> lol [16:26] <auroraminerva> She attacks Trelawney, and Frienze saves her because Umbridge is terrified of centaurs [16:26] <JaneMarple9> or have her work in the weasley joke shop [16:26] <Evreka> I would LOVE for Harry to be able to get even with that... cow [16:26] <MirandaV> clop, clop, clop [16:26] <Evreka> Sorry to all cows [16:26] <mollywobbles23> lol [16:27] *** fawkes28 has quit [Bye] [16:27] *** fawkes28 has joined #lounge [16:27] <JaneMarple9> and me evreka! [16:27] <MafaldaWeasley> not as a tester but as something for the MoM, since DE used the dark powder [16:27] <MirandaV> Yeah...I think you just insulted the cows Evreka [16:27] <MirandaV> laugh [16:27] <JaneMarple9> cow pretty sums her up - offensive to cows! [16:27] <Aislinn> Snape - Will he continue to try and "teach" Harry during their encounters? Will Harry continue to learn via the Half-Blood Prince's potions book? [16:27] <Poet> I'm sure there are former Hogwarts students working for the Ministry, but I doubt any of them are high-up enough (except Percy) to interact with her. Maybe farther into the future [16:27] <mollywobbles23> I have no idea about Umbridge. [16:27] <MirandaV> Percy....grrrrrrrrr [16:27] <JaneMarple9> nope Snapes teaching days are over [16:27] <mollywobbles23> Oh, Snape. Such a juicy topic. [16:28] <blackhippogriff> no not after waht snap did [16:28] <JaneMarple9> even pricately [16:28] <fawkes28> ah, Snape [16:28] <MafaldaWeasley> Gosh! Snape is bad haha [16:28] <Poet> I do wonder if there are anymore spells in that potions books that Harry could use [16:28] <fawkes28> expie, what do you think? [16:28] <nympheart> I think there's more stuff in that book, but I think Snape's hatred of Harry will keep any lessons unspoken [16:28] <Joyhawk2121> I think over to [16:28] <JaneMarple9> oh but i think the book is useful [16:28] <Evreka> Snape :censored: [16:28] <MirandaV> I hope he gets the potions book back...I think it could teach him another thing or two [16:28] <Expelliarmas> I think Harry will learn more about Snape through the book; Snape was not teaching Harry in HBP, he was taunting him; there's a difference [16:28] <mollywobbles23> Not teach, teach, but how he tried to still teach Harry before he fled? yes. [16:28] <JaneMarple9> thats entirely different than snape [16:28] *** MafaldaWeasley has quit [Bye] [16:28] <aranel_parmadil> I still think snape is not truly on lv's side.... [16:28] <blackhippogriff> i hope snap dies [16:28] <MirandaV> yes, expie...that slimy git [16:28] <JaneMarple9> the book is very important [16:28] <mollywobbles23> Oh, I think Snape was teaching him. [16:28] <Poet> I could be wrong, but that book may have been for both years 6 & 7 of Potions, so it could have lots more juicey things Harry could learn from it [16:28] <Evreka> I think either the book or something in the Hiding room will be a Horcrux [16:28] *** MafaldaWeasley has joined #lounge [16:28] <CarpeDiem> I think Snape has always had lessons he has tried to teach Harry. The hate they both have for each other has always gotten in the way though. Perhpas the HBP's book will give Harry some insight into the mind of Snape. Anything to get to know him better. [16:29] <Aislinn> I quite agree, expie [16:29] <fawkes28> No, I think he was teaching him at the end of HBP [16:29] <JaneMarple9> perhaps poet [16:29] <JaneMarple9> i like that idea [16:29] <auroraminerva> it had a lot of useful help about potions any way [16:29] <JaneMarple9> the book may have been useful long before we realised it [16:29] <MirandaV> you will never be able to do it until you learn to close your mind and your mouth...sounds more like a taunt to me...I know it's also a fact, but still.... [16:29] <Aislinn> his lessons have not been useful ones, carpe - follow the rules, don't be like your father, close your mind [16:29] <Poet> I agree Carpe, I also agree that Snape was trying to give some last minute lessons to Harry as he fled Hogwarts [16:29] <mollywobbles23> I think first people should say whether they think Snape is good or evil, because that will obviously determine what he will do. [16:29] <Hermeeownee> He will need an understanding of dark arts to fight the DE in DH. [16:29] <Expelliarmas> Snape can not teach Harry anything in a direct manner; he could never get over himself to do it [16:29] <fawkes28> He has been teaching him all these years - he has been mean to him partially because he knows that Voldemort is not going to play fair [16:29] <blackhippogriff> snaps always hated harry and hius dad [16:29] <Aislinn> these are not lessons Harry needs to learn [16:29] <MafaldaWeasley> II agree expelie [16:30] <Evreka> Exactly Aislinn [16:30] <JaneMarple9> harry won't allow snape to teach him [16:30] <fawkes28> yes, Harry needs someone who is not going to baby him and go easy on him because voldemort certainly wont [16:30] <JaneMarple9> harry wants nothing to do with snape any more [16:30] <MirandaV> I agree with expie and Aislinn [16:30] <Aislinn> Hemay have taught him potions, but the lessons about life have all been what NOT to do [16:30] <Expelliarmas> Snape has given Harry no reason to trust him, Jane--from the first less on forward [16:30] <Aislinn> a negative example, as it were [16:30] <auroraminerva> I hope he is good because I don't want DD to be wrong [16:30] <MirandaV> There's a huge difference between not babying him and being unneccessarily cruel though [16:30] <JaneMarple9> yes expel [16:30] <fawkes28> since when was he supposed to teach him about life? [16:30] <Evreka> I think he is a SNEAK with one foot in each camp but who decided for the Dark Side upon the UV [16:30] <MirandaV> oops too many letters [16:30] <Poet> I mostly agree that whatever Snape wants to teach him will likely not go over very well, unless it comes from the book. Even so, Harry's not as likely to listen to even the book now [16:31] <JaneMarple9> yes evreka, he's on both sides [16:31] <blackhippogriff> if harry ever saw snap he wouled kill him [16:31] <fawkes28> He is teaching him how to survive Voldemort - always has been [16:31] *** blackhippogriff left #lounge [] [16:31] <Expelliarmas> I think Harry will now seek out information about Snape--to use against him [16:31] <mollywobbles23> yes, fawkes. [16:31] <Expelliarmas> Harry never had that motivation before [16:31] <Poet> I agree fawkes [16:31] <MafaldaWeasley> And beyond that, expie, I doubt he was trying to be tough cause LV was tough. I think it was totally reflection of his hate for James. Harry looks like his dad [16:31] <JaneMarple9> i disagree poet, i think harry has nothing against the book [16:31] <Hermeeownee> snape was on his own side, [16:31] <Expelliarmas> No fawkes, DD was the one teaching Harry how to survive LV; not Snape [16:31] <Evreka> I would cheer him on black hippo [16:31] <JaneMarple9> it has been useful for him [16:31] <mollywobbles23> whether he meant to or not, that was part of his literary purpose. [16:31] <MirandaV> I just don't see that fawkes...I think that he was just taking things out on Harry...nothing he did was constructive [16:31] <MafaldaWeasley> I agree Miranda [16:31] <MirandaV> exactly Expie [16:32] <Aislinn> totally agree Miranda [16:32] <Evreka> Not anymore he wouldn't touch it after Sectusempra [16:32] <fawkes28> he could not get over his hatred for James - that is true Miranda but I think he had other motives too [16:32] *** ihoney322 has joined #lounge [16:32] <Expelliarmas> i can belittle my students all day long and then whine they learn nothing; to whom do we assign the blame, the students or me [16:32] <auroraminerva> I agree he taught him expelliarmus [16:32] <Aislinn> good point, expie [16:32] *** ihoney322 left #lounge [] [16:32] <Evreka> I agree Miranda - except I think he might have hated Harry too [16:32] <aranel_parmadil> true, expel [16:33] <Poet> I do think Snape has been trying to teach Harry lessons, but he's never been a very good teacher [16:33] <Evreka> in his own right for finnishing LV [16:33] <fawkes28> but expie - you don't have a student who has to fight a horrible wizard who is trying to kill him [16:33] *** HPotterExpert2 has joined #lounge [16:33] <nympheart> hi HPE [16:33] <Expelliarmas> well, if his animosity were limited to Harry, but what reason could he have had to abuse Neville so completely [16:33] <MirandaV> I just don't think that you can only tear someone down and expect that to teach...there has to be a building up too...he never tried to teach him anything but hatred and that's not goi gto help him [16:33] <HPotterExpert2> hi all! [16:33] <MirandaV> oops going [16:33] <Aislinn> If Snape somehow were redeemed, and if he somehow survived Book 7, do you think he'd ever return to teaching? If so, where, and what subjects? [16:33] <mollywobbles23> No. [16:33] <MafaldaWeasley> Imm I think making harry feel stupid and unable to learn is not a very good way to teach or reach [16:33] <Poet> I don't think he'd teach, unless it was Durmstrang [16:33] *** HPotterExpert2 left #lounge [] [16:34] <nympheart> that's quite a long shot [16:34] <aranel_parmadil> I can't see him returning to teaching somehow [16:34] <fawkes28> he will be redeemed - there is no somehow [16:34] <Evreka> Because he was the other possibility for the Prophecy [16:34] <Poet> Maybe he'd prefer to be a headmaster [16:34] <mollywobbles23> I don't think he'll survive, for one. [16:34] <MirandaV> I hope not...he only insulted everyone who wasn't Slytherine [16:34] <MafaldaWeasley> IF he redeem he'll be back [16:34] <Expelliarmas> Not a chance, Aislinn. The man can not teach and there is no more DD to protect him [16:34] <nympheart> I don't think he'd ever teach [16:34] <JaneMarple9> no no no [16:34] <Expelliarmas> He should go on to Durmstrang [16:34] <mollywobbles23> I think if he's redeemed, he'll have to die for it to happen. [16:34] <Aislinn> he would prefer it, poet, but that doesn't mean he is suited for the job. [16:34] <JaneMarple9> snape will not return to hogwarts [16:34] <Evreka> and Snape who knopws both boysa knows who is the worst enemy to have [16:34] <fawkes28> Yes, I could see him return to teaching after all is said and done and he saves Harry's life devil2 [16:34] <JaneMarple9> thats a nice idea expell [16:34] <CarpeDiem> I don't think Snape ever wanted to teach. I think he wanted either inside news or DD's protection. [16:34] <Evreka> I think he can't forgive Neville for not being picked... [16:34] <Poet> I don't think he'll survive, but if he did, he'd not really need to be at Hogwarts being protected anymore [16:34] <aranel_parmadil> he had a pride in his teaching to some extent - good results were important to him. But he wasn't a born teacher. I wonder why he did it in the first place [16:34] *** Julianna07 has quit [Bye] [16:34] <Hermeeownee> Perhaps durmstrang - He will never return to Hogwarts [16:34] <MafaldaWeasley> hehe, I hope he dies fawkes hehe [16:35] * nympheart hisses at fawkes [16:35] <MirandaV> Remember when a Slytherin cursed Hermione's teeth and he said I don't see I difference...he's just a big jerk to everyone [16:35] <JaneMarple9> do a swap - they get snape we get viktor [16:35] <Expelliarmas> Nice try, fawkes, but the final battle will be between Harry and LV with no cheap parlor tricks to cloud the issue [16:35] <MirandaV> I agree Expie [16:35] <Evreka> Yes Carpe he wanted to teach DADA [16:35] * fawkes28 laughs [16:35] <Aislinn> I believe what he told Bella, aranel - he did it to protect his own neck and keep himself out of Azkaban [16:35] *** ihoney322 has joined #lounge [16:35] <Evreka> lol Jane [16:35] <Expelliarmas> Snape is on his own side [16:35] <CarpeDiem> Ev, I think that was only AFTER he was assigned to Hogwarts - either from DD or LV [16:35] <JaneMarple9> and i think viktor is 1000 time better than snape [16:35] <nympheart> hi ihoney [16:35] <Joyhawk2121> right Aislinn [16:36] <MirandaV> hi ihoney [16:36] <Evreka> But Hermione is muggle born - not his favourite [16:36] *** ihoney322 has quit [Bye] [16:36] <MirandaV> Yes, Aislinn, good results were only important to him if he liked the student also [16:36] <Expelliarmas> Snape went to Hogwarts to teach at DD's invitation--he had nowhere else to go [16:36] <Poet> I do agree that he takes a lot of pride in (something). I doubt he'd care to return to a teacher's life though. He likes being in control. [16:36] <Poet> I agree, he was only there for his own protection [16:36] <MafaldaWeasley> yes, and this is not good! he's a teacher he's supposed to teach all on the same way [16:36] <Expelliarmas> At theend of GoF, DD said Snape and Sirius were only there at his invitation [16:36] <MirandaV> Nobody was his favorite unless they were a slytherin is my point...he showed a clear preference for the pure bloods [16:36] <Evreka> true, Expie [16:37] <Expelliarmas> true, he despised Hermione as much as Harry [16:37] <Evreka> brb [16:37] <Aislinn> Could you ever imagine Snape old and retired somewhere? What would Snape's dream retirement be? [16:37] <aranel_parmadil> not all slytherins are pure bloods, and not all pure bloods are slytherins, miranda [16:37] <Expelliarmas> wihtout DD there to protect him and extend his trust, Snape can not return to Hogwarts [16:37] <MirandaV> To be surrounded by the world according to LV [16:37] <fawkes28> hehehehe [16:37] <MafaldaWeasley> With some huge award on his wall, annoying kids [16:37] <fawkes28> now now Miranda that is not true [16:37] <Poet> Having Wormtail bring him elf-made wine while he enjoyed his leather-bound books [16:37] <MirandaV> Yes, I know....case and point Ron [16:38] <Expelliarmas> Dream retirement? somewhere where he can get a total makeover [16:38] <nympheart> Snape is going to die, but if he retired he'd live as a hermit and not have a shower [16:38] <MirandaV> ....oh I think it is fawkes [16:38] <Evreka> back [16:38] <Hermeeownee> living out his life in his house with Wormtail bringing him drinks [16:38] <mollywobbles23> an island where there is no shampoo [16:38] <Poet> Actually I think he'd love to be headmaster at Durmstrang and order people around [16:38] <JaneMarple9> i think snape's dream retirement would be with voldie [16:38] <fawkes28> i know you do wink [16:38] <MirandaV> laugh [16:38] <fawkes28> well, now we all know voldie is going to die [16:38] <Poet> I think he's afraid of Voldie [16:38] <JaneMarple9> and voldie being his servant! [16:38] <CarpeDiem> lol Poet, I like that. I was thinking some place by himself - he doesn't seem to like people much [16:38] <fawkes28> Snape I think will be happy by himself in a dungeon somewhere [16:39] <Expelliarmas> trying out new demented spells on his "enemies" [16:39] *** NYBookworm has quit [Bye] [16:39] <MirandaV> Oooh...yes Jane that's just what I was thinking!! [16:39] <Evreka> being allowed to use Harry as punch bag [16:39] <Evreka> :( [16:39] <Joyhawk2121> right, I see him alone [16:39] <JaneMarple9> or in azkaban - that would be quiet enough! [16:39] <MirandaV> being allowed to crucio Harry all day long every day [16:39] <fawkes28> now why would he in azkaban? [16:39] <Poet> Right, some place quiet where his former students couldn't throw dungbombs at his door [16:39] <nympheart> and miserable enough, jane [16:39] <Evreka> lol Jane [16:39] <JaneMarple9> why would snape be in azkaban????? biggrin [16:39] <Evreka> Exactly Miranda! [16:39] <Expelliarmas> maybe he'll run a laundromat, how to use bleach on underwear ... [16:39] <CarpeDiem> For killing DD, Jane? [16:39] <JaneMarple9> come on fawkes - he killed dumble!! [16:40] <Hermeeownee> for killing Dumbledore!! [16:40] <fawkes28> ummmm it was planned [16:40] <fawkes28> therefore not a crime [16:40] * MirandaV laughs hysterically at Expie [16:40] <Poet> No, he's never seemed to want to crucio Harry. He had his chance and didn't ever do anything like that [16:40] <Aislinn> Poor Madame Sprout. Jo appears to be grooming Neville to become her replacement. Will she die before the end of Book 7? Should Sprout survive, what do you see in her future? [16:40] <Evreka> with an UNforgivable Curse!! [16:40] <Hermeeownee> homicide is homicide [16:40] <mollywobbles23> Snape's dream retirement: singing "Lily's Eyes" on Broadway. [16:40] <JaneMarple9> was it? I don't think it was! [16:40] <Aislinn> moving on wink [16:40] <fawkes28> well then we will have to agree to diagree [16:40] <Expelliarmas> he had his orders, Poet; and Snape does not disobey the Dark Lord [16:40] <JaneMarple9> sorry! [16:40] <MafaldaWeasley> I think she'll retire [16:40] <nympheart> I don't think she'll die [16:40] <MirandaV> That's what I was about to say Mafalda [16:41] *** MidnightPhoenix has joined #lounge [16:41] <Poet> I think she'll get married and retire early - that way she won't have to die, Neville can be her assist. for a few years first [16:41] <Evreka> I don't think she's very important [16:41] <JaneMarple9> madame sprout....i think she will be giving neville private lessons [16:41] <MafaldaWeasley> I think she'll retire and open a shop [16:41] <Expelliarmas> I don't see Sprout as all that important to initially kick the bucket as part of the war [16:41] <Aislinn> I hope she just decides to retire, and Neville takes over that way [16:41] <nympheart> She'll retire to a house with a lot of land and grow all the plants she wants [16:41] <Hermeeownee> Neville would do a great job - but I don't know if he is ready at this point in time to teach... [16:41] *** MidnightPhoenix has quit [Bye] [16:41] <Poet> Nice one MafaldaWeasley [16:41] <JaneMarple9> on herbology in case anybody has any ideas! [16:41] <Evreka> dream retirement in a green-house with self-pruning plants.. tongue [16:41] <Expelliarmas> besides, Neville still has plenty to learn [16:41] <CarpeDiem> I think Sprout has a lot of usefulness left in her. I hope that she can continue to groom Neville until he is ready to teach though. Death should not be the motivator [16:41] <MirandaV> I think she'll join her baby Mandrakes in a lovely green house somewhere [16:41] <mollywobbles23> she'll die a natural death while teaching and we'll learn in the epilogue (which takes place quite a bit later) that Neville is the Herbology teacher. [16:41] <fawkes28> i think she would be a great mentor for neville [16:42] <MirandaV> Yes, molly...that's good [16:42] <nympheart> i think Neville will probably die... [16:42] <JaneMarple9> or retiring and starting up a floriat in diagon alley [16:42] * nympheart ducks [16:42] <Theoriser> sprout isn't such a main character, so I'm not sure if she would die or not in book 7 [16:42] <Joyhawk2121> yeah Fawkes I think so to [16:42] * JaneMarple9 aims at nymph...not listening! [16:42] * MirandaV throws pizza at nymph [16:42] <aranel_parmadil> I think sprout will survive [16:42] <Expelliarmas> I could see Neville dying as well (but not before he does Bella some damage) [16:42] <MirandaV> that's what I'm eating right now [16:42] <mollywobbles23> no!!! [16:43] <MafaldaWeasley> Oh. no.. Poor neville!!! [16:43] <Poet> *gulp* [16:43] <nympheart> what kind of pizza? [16:43] <MafaldaWeasley> he had enough sufffering [16:43] * JaneMarple9 blocks her ears until all the neville dead talk is over [16:43] <Evreka> lol [16:43] <mollywobbles23> lol [16:43] <MirandaV> lol pepperoni...so not in my diet...Neville no die [16:43] <fawkes28> so professor sprout... [16:43] * nympheart starts eating Miranda's pizza [16:43] <Evreka> We'll loose characters left right and center... sad [16:43] <JaneMarple9> sprout will survive [16:44] <MirandaV> :lol: Professor Sprout will live [16:44] <JaneMarple9> she might come up with a magical plant [16:44] <MafaldaWeasley> Is retiring, being happy with many mandragoras at her shop [16:44] <Poet> Someone has to teach, and I think it's Neville. I'd love to see Sprout get some little hatchlings of her own - perhaps replant England after all the destruction is over [16:44] <JaneMarple9> which will help harry in some way [16:44] <fawkes28> Only 15 minutes left, everyone! This has been a great chat! I want to remind you all that this transcript can be found at the Corner Booth Forum http://www.leakylounge.com/Corner-Booth-f184.html. Don't forget to vote in the latest poll for the next P3 chat [16:44] <CarpeDiem> I think Sprout is more of a behind the scenes supporting character. She's there for potions and remedies when others are hurt. I don't think she'll be on the front lines and will not be killed [16:44] <JaneMarple9> awww only 15 mins sad This post has been edited by fawkes28: Mar 4 2007, 06:00 PM |

[16:45] <Aislinn> A few of the Hogwarts professors have spouses, but the information is restricted. Jo says we’ll find out why! So, who do you think amongst the staff is married or will be in the future?
[16:45] <mollywobbles23> 15 minutes meant a lot to Andy Warhol. [16:45] <MirandaV> bummer...this is the best part of my Sunday [16:45] <Expelliarmas> ewww Madame Pince and bleh Filch [16:45] <JaneMarple9> i want mcgonagall to be married [16:45] <MirandaV> Oh, oh, I don't know [16:45] <MafaldaWeasley> Flitwick [16:45] <Hermeeownee> perhaps one of the spouses will step forward and take the DADA [16:45] <mollywobbles23> I think Sprout is married. [16:45] <fawkes28> i think there is a mr. mcgonagall [16:45] <JaneMarple9> and possibly lockheart! [16:45] <nympheart> I always kind of wondered if DD was widowed [16:45] <Poet> Cool, I can totally see Flitwick married [16:45] <MirandaV> Goodness don't talk to me about Filch...I can't tell you why but it has to do with image gathering....*shivers* [16:45] <fawkes28> no, i don't think DD was ever married [16:46] <Expelliarmas> not lockhart, the only suitable match for lockhart was lockhart [16:46] <JaneMarple9> hmmm nice idea nymph [16:46] <MirandaV> I'll tell you later [16:46] <Joyhawk2121> me to nymph [16:46] <MafaldaWeasley> haha Miranda [16:46] <Hermeeownee> if DD was married- too bad they never had kids. [16:46] <Aislinn> I wonder if any of the teachers are married to each other? [16:46] <auroraminerva> well, this has been fun [16:46] <Poet> I have no idea why info like that would be "restricted" [16:46] <JaneMarple9> or umbridge expel? lockbridge? [16:46] <aranel_parmadil> lol expel [16:46] <fawkes28> he seems like he was always on his own - i don't think he could ever have found an equal [16:46] <mollywobbles23> Grubby-Plank is probably married, and Pro. Vector and maybe Pro. Sinistra. [16:46] <Evreka> Why would that be restricted though? [16:46] <Expelliarmas> I don't consider Umbridge a staffer [16:46] <MirandaV> I agree fawkes....OMG did I just say that...heehee [16:46] <mollywobbles23> McG. may be widowed. [16:46] <Aislinn> me either expie [16:46] <Evreka> Me Neither! [16:46] <Hermeeownee> perhaps we could get Lockhaart to marry Umbridge.... [16:46] <Hermeeownee> smile [16:46] <aranel_parmadil> grubbly-plank married? Hmmm....not sure about that! [16:47] <Expelliarmas> even Lockhart doesn't deserve that [16:47] <mollywobbles23> Why not? [16:47] <JaneMarple9> grubbly plank could be married [16:47] <MafaldaWeasley> I can see that molly [16:47] <JaneMarple9> like that idea [16:47] <CarpeDiem> lol "fates worst than death!", Hermeeownee [16:47] <Poet> Actually it makes a lot of sense that some might be married to each other. It would be hard to live in a school 10 months out of the year [16:47] <Expelliarmas> that's true enough, Poet [16:47] <MirandaV> I was just thinking what about DD and McG [16:47] <mollywobbles23> Eww....I do not want to picture that. [16:47] <Evreka> lol, Carpe!!! laugh [16:47] <auroraminerva> they do only interact with eachother [16:47] <Poet> Nah, DD's never had an equal, according to Jo [16:47] <CarpeDiem> I was thinking that as well, Poet. If they are not married then I'm sure there are some very close friendships [16:47] <mollywobbles23> It's like thinking about your parents...*shudders* [16:47] <MirandaV> I know...it was just fun to think [16:48] <Poet> true [16:48] <CarpeDiem> lol mollywobbles [16:48] <Joyhawk2121> true [16:48] <Poet> Maybe there is a Mr. Trelawney [16:48] <Poet> Poor guy [16:48] <Aislinn> Who (if any) amongst the Hogwarts staff is most likely to have information that could lead to Horcruxes? [16:48] <mollywobbles23> bless his soul. [16:48] *** jewel10 has joined #lounge [16:48] <auroraminerva> lol [16:48] <Hermeeownee> we all know that teachers never do anything but prepare their lessons, right? [16:48] <Joyhawk2121> lol [16:48] <Evreka> exactly, Poet [16:48] <mollywobbles23> Slughorn [16:48] <Poet> Flitwick [16:48] <MafaldaWeasley> Slughorn [16:48] <JaneMarple9> flitwick [16:48] <nympheart> probably Slughorn [16:48] <JaneMarple9> binns [16:48] <Expelliarmas> Slughorn [16:48] <JaneMarple9> slughorn maybe [16:48] <MirandaV> Sluggy [16:48] <JaneMarple9> hagrid [16:49] *** Expelliarmas has quit [Bye] [16:49] *** Expelliarmas has joined #lounge [16:49] <fawkes28> i think slughorn [16:49] <auroraminerva> slughorn was first [16:49] <Hermeeownee> flitwick [16:49] <Poet> Slughorn too. Binns would be a good one if he can stop long enough to listen to a question from a student [16:49] <JaneMarple9> hagrid may have hidden things from harry [16:49] <Evreka> Noone, I think Harry has to look for info from other sources [16:49] <JaneMarple9> lupin? [16:49] <MafaldaWeasley> I knew Tom very much. He knew him so much that he had been hidding since he heard LV was back... [16:49] * MirandaV thinks Jane is naming everyone [16:49] <Expelliarmas> Madame Pince won't be helpful [16:49] <mollywobbles23> I think that Krum will help out with that, though. After all, he went to Durmstrang where they learned the Dark Arts. [16:49] <auroraminerva> I don't think that's possiple [16:49] <auroraminerva> lol [16:49] <Poet> Anyone that might know info about the Hogwarts founders - like the Heads of houses [16:49] <Evreka> I think he was hiding from Albus too though [16:49] <MafaldaWeasley> as well, evreka [16:50] <Evreka> that's a thought, molly [16:50] <Expelliarmas> Krum as well as Bill would be helpful with curses; but I don't see them shedding a lot of light on the horcruxes themselves or the spell [16:50] <nympheart> possibly Trelawney in the form of a prophecy [16:50] <fawkes28> I think more people outside of Hogwarts will help rather than the teachers [16:50] <Poet> I'm hoping Flitwick will know into about Ravenclaw [16:50] <Poet> *info [16:50] <JaneMarple9> yes perhaps trelawnley [16:50] <Aislinn> I don't really know that any of the teachers would have any additional useful information about Horcruxes [16:50] <Evreka> I can see that happen nymph [16:50] <MirandaV> I guess...really...it could be anyone [16:51] <Aislinn> Which of the teachers (and their past lessons) will the Trio end up finding most useful on their journey through Book 7? [16:51] <Expelliarmas> I think Slughorn could help Harry understand how complex one is [16:51] <MirandaV> so we should name them all [16:51] <mollywobbles23> Imposter Moody. [16:51] <nympheart> DD [16:51] <Expelliarmas> transfiguration [16:51] <JaneMarple9> charms [16:51] <Expelliarmas> and potions [16:51] <JaneMarple9> transfiguration [16:51] <Hermeeownee> a little from each - Hermionee will remember bits and pieces from all the classes [16:51] <JaneMarple9> potions [16:51] <MafaldaWeasley> errr...not a clue [16:51] <CarpeDiem> Perhas Binns could be of some use. Yes, nymph..I thikn DD also left many cluse for Harry to find as well. [16:51] <Poet> DADA for sure. I think some of the potions lessons will be helpful, perhaps Draught of Living Death [16:51] <auroraminerva> tough one [16:51] <Expelliarmas> i don't see a lot of help from care of magical creatures (unless they bump into Norbert) [16:51] <MirandaV> again I find myself agreeing with Jane...any and all [16:51] <JaneMarple9> and moody - the real moody [16:51] <JaneMarple9> slughorn [16:52] <JaneMarple9> DADA definately [16:52] <nympheart> lol Jane [16:52] <aranel_parmadil> how strong is mcgonagle now after that attack on her in HBP? [16:52] <Poet> Transfiguration is always useful, though I don't think the Trio are very skilled at that yet [16:52] <auroraminerva> What about DD himself? His portrait is on the wall know. [16:52] <MirandaV> lol [16:52] <JaneMarple9> and Lupin. McGongal doesn't know anything about horcruxes [16:52] <Evreka> not History tongue [16:52] *** Evreka has quit [Bye] [16:52] *** Evreka has joined #lounge [16:52] <auroraminerva> Was the ridgeback Harry fought in GoF Norbert? [16:53] <jewel10> uh... no [16:53] <MirandaV> he fought a Hungarian Horntail [16:53] <Hermeeownee> and what about his pensive- There may be a ton of info in the pensive. [16:53] <mollywobbles23> I still think that what they learned in Imposter Moody's class will be of the biggest help...except for what they learned in the DA. [16:53] <Poet> The dragons were females [16:53] <MafaldaWeasley> the dragon was a female, it had eggs [16:53] <JaneMarple9> history of magic may have a horcrux or two buried in the waffle [16:53] <jewel10> how do u know that??? [16:53] <auroraminerva> oooooh mixed up [16:53] <mollywobbles23> waffle? [16:53] <MafaldaWeasley> sorry poet hehe [16:53] <JaneMarple9> the pensieve is going to be massive [16:53] <auroraminerva> just thought it would be cool [16:53] <Poet> I do think some of the creatures they learned about will be helpful, especially if they journey through any magical woods [16:53] <JaneMarple9> waffle - not the food! - talk, and long words [16:53] <MirandaV> I agree Jane [16:54] <Evreka> DADA [16:54] *** Evreka has quit [Bye] [16:54] <mollywobbles23> oh, okay. lol [16:54] <JaneMarple9> great word! [16:54] *** jewel10 has quit [Bye] [16:54] <Aislinn> How might Hogwarts be run differently considering the fact that Death Eaters so recently broke into the school? Will the teachers adjust their curriculum in consideration of these troubling times? How so? [16:54] <MirandaV> It is...but it makes me hungry [16:54] <nympheart> There might be a larger focus on DADA, especially with the older students [16:54] <Expelliarmas> the DEs only got in because Malfoy found a way through the vanishing cabinets [16:54] <JaneMarple9> so does chocolate! [16:54] <MafaldaWeasley> I think there'll be a lot more security and people fomr the MoM there, especially aurors [16:55] <MirandaV> I think the vanishing cabinet will be gotten rid of for one thing [16:55] <auroraminerva> they have to do somehing about the cabbinets for sure [16:55] <Expelliarmas> the DEs otherwise would not have been able to get in [16:55] <MirandaV> Oh, chocolate...I haven't had any in ages...diet [16:55] *** Evreka has joined #lounge [16:55] <JaneMarple9> I think the houses will be more united [16:55] <mollywobbles23> I think curfews will be enforced more strictly. [16:55] <MafaldaWeasley> and unfortunatedly, i think many innocent Slytherins will suffer prejudice [16:55] <MirandaV> I think they have to be more united [16:55] <Poet> I see McGonagall as a slightly stricter headmistress. Maybe some of the activities will be restricted - like Quidditch and trips to Hogsmeade [16:55] <CarpeDiem> Great question...I wonder if the lessons will turn much more practical at this point. Hands on and useful lessons as a "just in case" for the sturdents [16:55] <aranel_parmadil> as the sorting hat told them to be, jane? [16:55] <Aislinn> that makes a lot of sense, carpe [16:55] <Poet> I agree, a lot more practical and less theory [16:55] <MirandaV> You might be right about that mafalda [16:55] <JaneMarple9> because malfoy won't be there- malfoy was the ringleader of the slytherins [16:55] <Poet> All of the students will be more motivated too [16:56] <MirandaV> good idea carpe [16:56] <JaneMarple9> yes aranel exactly [16:56] <auroraminerva> The hat told them they have to unite so maybe that happens in DH [16:56] <Poet> Potions and Herbology might focus more on antidotes and protective measures [16:56] <MirandaV> I think Ginny is going to help with the uniting thing [16:56] <JaneMarple9> the hat is usually right [16:56] <MirandaV> Well it only has a brain without emotion...that helps [16:56] <Evreka> What [16:56] <Evreka> what's the question? [16:56] <auroraminerva> all hail the hat.. LOL [16:56] <Poet> I hope Flitwick runs a dueling club again [16:56] <fawkes28> me too, poet [16:57] <MirandaV> Ooooh, yes poet [16:57] <JaneMarple9> yes more pratical less theory [16:57] <Expelliarmas> I don't know there will be enough students to sort into houses [16:57] <JaneMarple9> and yes a duelling club nice idea [16:57] <MafaldaWeasley> I can see Percy getting in to teach some defenses hehe... [16:57] <Poet> How Hogwarts classes will be run differently in Book 7 [16:57] <Aislinn> Are the teachers safer at Hogwarts or in hiding elsewhere? Will Hogwarts be a scene of one of the last big battles? Which of the teachers will survive? Which might be injured or killed? [16:57] <JaneMarple9> i am sure there will be expel [16:57] <aranel_parmadil> how much will we see of hogwarts at all, do you think? [16:57] <JaneMarple9> hogwarts is still a safe place [16:57] <Poet> I think they are safer together, so they don't get picked off one by one [16:57] <MafaldaWeasley> i think it will be thescene of the big battle, yeah [16:57] <MirandaV> hogwarts=safe [16:58] <auroraminerva> Mcgnl will sacrifice herself for Harry [16:58] <JaneMarple9> perhaps so malfada [16:58] <Aislinn> I think we will definitely see it, aranel - I think Harry is going to go back, and use it as a base, or go back to protect it from LV [16:58] * mollywobbles23 keels over from all the questions [16:58] <Expelliarmas> Hogwarts is still a safe place; but parents want to have their kids close to them [16:58] <MafaldaWeasley> I don't know who's going to die. [16:58] <Poet> Of course will Dumbledore gone, Voldemort might try and Take The Castle - just like in chess [16:58] <Evreka> Ah, I think it would be anything but safe [16:58] <CarpeDiem> I think the unity of Hogwarts...the sense of family that is there will end up being a strong type of protection for staff and students [16:58] <fawkes28> i think hogwarts is safer [16:58] * JaneMarple9 fans mollywobbles [16:58] <MirandaV> I don't know that the big battle will be there, but I wouldn't be surprised if a battle was there [16:58] <Poet> I certainly think a teacher or two might die defending Hogwarts, perhaps maybe even one might die over the summer [16:58] <Expelliarmas> i think more of a skirmish [16:58] <MirandaV> I agree Aislinn [16:59] <JaneMarple9> hogwarts is a very safe place [16:59] <Expelliarmas> LV still wants the school [16:59] <aranel_parmadil> I think hogwarts may well be attacked but there area lot of defences to get through [16:59] <aranel_parmadil> are a lot [16:59] <Poet> I agree, the school is very important to LV [16:59] <JaneMarple9> but there will be one or two battles there [16:59] <auroraminerva> Everything has been around Hogwarts so I find it only fitting that it ends there [16:59] <Expelliarmas> agree with that, aranel [16:59] * MirandaV hands Jane smelling salts [16:59] * mollywobbles23 comes to and sorts through the questions one by one... [16:59] <JaneMarple9> the school is very important to coldie yes [16:59] <Poet> I can see some of the minor teachers dying, perhaps even some house elves (sadly) [16:59] <MirandaV> hahaha...coldie I like it [17:00] <aranel_parmadil> house elves have quite powerful magic of their own [17:00] <Expelliarmas> well, if winky doesnt get her butterbeer addiction under control ... [17:00] <MafaldaWeasley> i think the last horcrux is there and Cruch Jr was the one to hide it, so I think it will be there the last battle [17:00] <JaneMarple9> there i go again calling voldie coldie!! [17:00] <Evreka> There's a discussion in CoC right after this CB Chat. If anyone likes to join us you're welcome smile [17:00] <Aislinn> This has been a great chat, everyone - it flew by!
