Sleeping dragons

Which one is your favorite so far. Are they getting even better as the characters develop over time?

[WARNING- almost completely off-topic, addressed to Neo ;)]

What do you mean- what's the point of the motto, or of the story in general?

Sometimes, like now, I like to think that stories exist solely as a form of escape from the demands of reality. Other times, I like thinking there's a deeper meaning to everything, just like y'all. :grin:


Oh yeah . . . calling me Muse is fine with me too :razz:

"Draco" means dragon, so it is just coincidence.

well, it may not be a coincidence. i mean, JK's characters all have specific names for specific reasons. maybe we could start a thread on why characters have certain names, since i think it might be too offtopic if we started going on and on about it here.

Some nsames have a reason, but not all.

Muse, I was saying about (I'll quote if I can) is...
Be careful not to overanalyze


and maybe the four of them think of it, I don't think only one made the decisions.

hm, I beleive that it's most likely a Godric Gryffindor statement...and if that's the case, GG and DD have the same sense of humor...hm, regarding the fact that Slytherin and Gryffindor were enemies in the same way that Voldemort (the hier of Slytherin) and DD are now, it could be that DUMBLEDORE is the true hier of Slytherin, and not as supposed Harry...*just thinking*

of course not... :lol: DD and Slytherin...oh my god...that was only because I'm addicted to this forum and therefore come here even if I don't have enough time! (insert swear word here)
What the stupid girl that I am meant was that maybe DD is the heir of Gryffindor?

I still think that they whole heir of giffindor business is just too predicatable... probably quite likely to happen, but still... very predictable!

But if there is the heir of Slytherin, and it seems to be the one of Gryffindor there must be the heirs of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, no?

It just pop in my head, what if this heirs is the order of the phoenix?

I don't think it's necessary to have heirs of Ravenclaw and hufflepuff as well...Gryffindor and Slytherin were the most powerful ones, and they fought against each other. That means they're in need of an heir to defend their legacy...
About the whole thing being predictable, I've heard quite a lot of rumours that Harry is the heir if G. But DD would be a bit more of a surprise

yeah, their families could have died out (ravenclaw and hufflepuff i mean) and what i think mist, (as said in the thread i mentioned earlier) is that BOTH DD and Harry are heirs to GG

If GG heir exists it will be only one of them

And I know Sltherin and Gryffindor were the most important, but that doesn't eman there can't be heirs of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.
