I agree about Snape. At least I'm hoping he's not totally evil. He can't be *defensive* I think that Dumbledore had some kind of knowledge of what was happening, which is why he froze Harry before Harry had a chance to mess it up. Because I'm positive that Harry would have interrupted Snape had he had the chance.
Regulus is the only person I could think of either. I'm hoping if it is him, that Sirius might tie in somehow too, because I don't think we've seen the last of him, honestly.
And when you mentioned Voldemort using Sirius's body in his army of undead...I hadn't thought about that before, but that does seem very likely. Hopefully he'd have to accept that it was just a body, and hopefully remember the damn spell this time.
Tonks and Lupin...I don't necessarily have a problem with it, but it just seems a little weird to me. Maybe I hadn't been reading into things enough, but I really hadn't seen that much foreshadowing, like what usually happens. (as with all that R/Hr foreshadowing that I'm refusing to accept will probably come true in the final book). Anyways.
You don't have to call me sir was one of the greatest lines ever, I agree. All those little lighthearted moments made me a little happier about all the other crap that was going on.
I had taken care to avoid all spoilers, but somehow, when Dumbledore's hand was first mentioned, I got this sinking feeling that he would be the one to die. Even though I'd had him pegged to die in Book 7.
Sirius's death still bothers me more. It and the GoF end scene both do horrible things to me.
Out of curiosity, you haven't seen any more predictions of impending doom for our beloved characters, have you? Going back to the foreshadowing idea, the books are usually laced with stuff indicating who'll be snuffed next. I don't know if you've read it or not, but there was a nice list compiled about Sirius's death hints. I don't know. My mind will not be at ease unless I find out that Ron and Neville both make it out. (Even though I think Neville will be the one to return as a teacher, so that means I'm mostly worried about Ron here I guess).
Going back to Sirius (I'm all over the place here, aren't I?) I'm thinking there's more to that veil than meets the eye. Hopefully we'll get some answers.
The lack of lessons thing bothered me too. As did the lack of 'less important' characters like Seamus and even Neville. Oh well.
