The first character I fell in love with: Harry of course!
The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: I actually have a lot more respect for Narcissa Malfoy in the wake of Deathly Hallows than I ever thought I would. That is a woman who is DEDICATED to her family, especially her son. Respect sister.
The character everyone else loves that I don't: Ginny. I just...she does nothing for me.
The character I love that everyone else hates: I don't really have any Potter characters that I love and everyone else hates :P except for maybe James because he was my Potter spirit animal in high school. The asshole-ish-ness notwithstanding :P
The character I used to love but don't any longer: Uhhhh...Remus did not really impress me in the DH book when
The character I would shag anytime: either of the Weasley twins. Or both. I'm not fussy ;)
The character I'd want to be like: Luna or Hermione. These two...I just have so much respect for them.
The character I'd slap: Draco.
My five favorite characters: ONLY FIVE?! Harry, Hermione, Luna, Tonks, McGonagall (Neville, Dumbledore, Sirius, Lily...)
My five least favorite characters: Draco, Pansy, Bellatrix, Lockhart, Wormtail.
My deep dark fandom secret: I still don't like Snape. Never have, don't think I ever will. I empathise with him, sure. But the fact that he loved Lily and risked his life to save her and then Harry time and again does NOT excuse the fact that he was a greasy, Death Eater weasel who hung out with creepy, evil people who delighted in torturing the innocent. Just sayin'....

I do like Snape but I don't like the 'Saint Snape' legacy he seems to gain by the end of the series. They do gloss over Snape's reasons for becoming a death eater in the first place. It's not like he was always a double agent. I also lost respect for Remus when he wanted to leave his family to go adventuring with Harry.

I'd want to be like Hermione and Luna too. Or McGonagall when I'm older.

Spot on how I feel too. Sure he had a pretty crappy childhood and was ripped to shreds in school by James and Sirius etc. but still. He must have gone pretty far darkside and done some pretty awful things to get where he ended up.

My best mate went BANANAS over Remus abandoning Teddy and Tonks. And fair cop too, it seemed incredibly OOC to me but then I'm sure Remus was pretty resigned to living alone and lonely after all his friends died/went to prison and then he lost Sirius all over again. Gah. Sucks.

McGonagall has my everlasting respect, as does Maggie Smith. What a trooper that woman is.
