The HBP Post, almost totally non-spoilery

[timeripple]

Am still digesting, but have formed a few impressions and have a very few things to say. Starting with: Have a little faith, people! Even the wisest among us (ie, everybody who's not JKR) cannot see all ends. She knows what she's doing, and is fond of misleading her faithful readers in evil, tricksy ways. I sincerely doubt all is as it seems.

And now for the good stuff, my ridiculous, slightly spoilery suspicion that I've been harboring for ages: Some time between GoF and OotP, JKR read DT and was so amused by it that she put tributes in the books. The evidence is only mostly nonexistent: Cassandra Trelawney, when she hardly ever re-uses names. The WWW daydream right out of Passionate Trousers. Also, she secretly ships H/D. You know it to be true!

Comment away, or don't!

ETA: The comments and my replies WILL BE SPOILERY. Ye be warned!

Ooh, either that, or Dumbledore knew about the Unbreakable Vow, because Snape told him, and sacrificed his life for Snape's, as well as for Snape's Death Eater gig. Dammit! I'm starting to hate Dumbledore. This is bad. I will reserve judgment. And I'm going to hate reading Book 7, because I will only be reading to find out the answer to these questions, and the whole time I'll be missing Dumbledore.

Harry Potter isn't fun anymore. :(
