icarus: Snape by mysterious artist (Default)
A tidbit to answer the most-asked question on Primer to the Dark Arts.

Views on the History of ‘Pure-blood Wizards’ by Albus Dumbledore )

Actually, what happened was that the question of what is a pure-blood was left open in the first four books, so my definition was that it meant a child of a wizard and witch. If one of the parents were Muggle-born (like Lily) then the kid would be first-generation pureblood, and considered to be like 'new money.' Then in OotP Dumbledore called Harry a 'half-blood.' Whoops. It was essential to the commisceo that Harry be pure-blood. Hmmm. So, I was either going to post this as an epilogue, or re-write 'A Crash Course on Dark Magic' to include it.

The results are in for This poll: Let's kill Percy!

It's a dead heat, a tie between:

- He dies during rough sex with Lucius. Comic relief as Lucius tries to hide the body.
- Percy embezzles a surprising amount of money from the Ministry and retires to a country where there's no extradition treaty.

So that means... er.. Percy embezzles the money, and then.. or.. well, anyway. I'll be catching up on comments soon. I had a surprise paper to do last night -- and now, to sleep.

Lord of the Rings. Saturday night. All they had were midnight tickets, but I don't care. I've only read the books 30 times.
