hp_fridayfive:
1. Which character evolution has been your favorite to read, and why?
Harry, definitely. I think he's come such a long way from the shy, insecure boy we met in Sorceror's Stone. He's no longer bumbling and awkward in his magic. You can really see this growth when he heads up Dumbledore's Army, and I was very dissapointed not to see the DA come back in HBP.
2. When Harry was originally sorted, the Sorting Hat told him he'd make a good Slytherin. How do you think Snape would have treated Harry had he been sorted into his own house?
Great question. Snape still would have hated Harry. Snape's treatment of Harry has always been based upon his hatred for James, which would not be different if Harry were in Slytherin instead of Gryffindor. Harry would be different, though, and so would his friends. He obviously would not have befriend Ron or Hermione. This may have coloured his behavior, but acting like a Slytherin would not erase the fact that he is still James' son.
3. Do you give any creedence to the "McGonagall is a spy" theory? Why or why not?
Eep! I don't know this theory. I would hate to think this were true. I trust her like I trusted Dumbledore...maybe I shouldn't? *runs off in search of McGonagall spy theory wrtitings*
ETA: Oh my. I just read an essay about the McGonagall spy theory. I can see how it might be true. How devastating! I mean, no one would suspect her! She is Dumbledore's right hand woman. I always assumed that she was on his side. She's never done or said anything that would lead me to think she and Voldie are in cahoots. But...she did want to close Hogwarts down after Dumbledore's death. I remember how that shocked me when I read it, thinking McGonagall was being weak. Maybe she was doing it for Voldie! The horror!
4. Which character do you get a sense is JK Rowling's favorite? Why?
Harry. The series is about him.
5. We all know that the last word of Book 7 is "scar." Write what you'd love to see as the last sentence, and make sure to include "scar" as the final word!
Now that Harry had saved the wizarding world from Voldemort and his evil Deatheaters, he was going to see about removing that damn SCAR!
