for the record

[topaz]

I've been saying this for months, but I wanted to get it down in writing before tomorrow:

I think the half-blood prince is going to turn out to be Draco Malfoy.

If I got runner-up guesses, I would have said Snape or Hagrid. But my money's on Draco.

Well, she's setting it up to be Neville, so you must be right. :)

Setting it up how? Because of the bit about the ambiguity in the prophecy from the last book?

Well, I haven't read the books in *quite* a while, but I remember having the feeling before the last book that she was setting Neville up to be something unexpectedly grand, and THEN there was the prophecy thing. Hm. If I reread them, I'll tell you what I mean.
