Although, it is rather interesting to see how Lupin and Harry's relationship evolves. #4 - Well, he does mention it at the end of book 6, does he not? Remind me again, though, do you need your NEWTs to be an Auror? #5 - Ahh. Immaterial of book 7, I have always had a feeling that Dumbledore knew what he was doing. #6 - Hmmm. This is the most interesting part (of course). The more interesting part is, how much did Dumbledore know? #7 - That's also an... interesting speculation, let's say. I am not even going to touch the rest of your speculations without giving things away. You know, I simply cannot resist but reply to a portion of your comments.

That's just silly. Neither is his scar. 2) What are the Deathly Hallows? They're the Horcruxes -- see <a href="http://www.mystical-www.co.uk/arthuriana2z/h.htm#HAL" rel="nofollow">this link</a> for an explanation of what "hallows" mean. 3) Good Guys who Die: Hagrid. Largely because in Book 6 he said "it'll take a lot more than [some curses from a Death-Eater] to kill me". Also Lupin - because that'll make Tonks really mad and make for excellent drama. 4) Does Harry complete his NEWTs this year? Unlikely. 5) Did Snape double-cross Dumbledore or is it all part of The Plan(tm)? I say he's Dumbledore's super-deep-cover agent (and there's lots of good evidence to indicate he is). 6) Does Voldy bite the bucket? I'm not sure: the bit where the prophecy says "neither can live while the other survives" is worded very strangely. Like Book 5 and 6 noted again and again, the prophecy was not inevitable, it was an act of choice on Voldemort's part. Harry might well _choose_ to spare him (while using some thingamajic to neutralize his magical powers). (Weirdly enough, after seeing the movies, I've started calling He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named the "Noseless One".) 7) Does Harry bite the bucket? Nope. I'm willing to bet vast sums on this one. There you go - 7 books, 7 predictions. I'll come back and see how I did in 30-odd hours ;-) Okay, I haven’t read Book 7 yet (21 hours to go!) but here are my Book 7 predictions all the same:
