sebastiennethose of you who have been following jkr's official site will know that the do-not-disturb door is now able to be opened.
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
and jkr has stated outright that this person is neither harry nor voldemort!
she also stated here that this was the original title for book 2, but that 'unfortunately the story bore no relation whatsoever to the title by the time I'd finished.' so, are we to assume that the character featured in some way in the 2nd book, ie, although remus is half-blood, we can rule him out?
some ideas we've been bouncing around:
Hagrid - features heavily in book 2. is half-giant. (yes, who says it has to be half-blood wizard?)
Justin Finch-Fletchely - was down for eton (..princely school..) before he got his hogwarts letter. was petrified in book 2, and attacked by the snake at duelling club. however, have a sneaking suspicion he might be muggleborn.
Colin Creevey - also petrified in book 2. his dad was a milkman, but we never hear about his mother. a DA member, who fanboys harry. introduced in book 2.
Viktor Krum - still in correspondance with Hermione, even in the background... but how could he have ever featured in book 2?
Seamus - is half-blood, but a prince?! and i'm sure it's a long time since ireland had a monarch (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jeasus, copinggoggles, wanna help me out on that?)
or, of course, JKR could introduce another new character, like luna or tonks. but surely they must at least get a mention in book 2?!
my favourite theory is that narcissa malfoy was shagging prince charles.
we come to it at last: the last exam for my time at school.
that's right - barring retakes (touchwood), tommorrow's exam on victorian literature is the last school exam i will ever have to take!
ETA: things-on-my-desk-meme, gacked fromaliche/jeasus:
-a barracudas staff manual. unreadable trash like 'please do not rape the children or stub out cigarette butts on their skin. kthx.'
-two empty tea mugs
-an empty orange juice glass
-an empty pot of rice pudding (yum!)
-evanescence cd
-sunday times 'news review' section
-a couple of evening standards from last week
-a pile of clean washing
-a pile of defunct books, from a-levels i have already taken
-an empty water bottle
-a medium-sized sheet of bubble-wrap
-a tea-towel
-my laptop!
yeah. my table is MESSY.
