The Epilogue

The Epilogue must have been the most confusing jumble of names and relationships that I've ever seen in slightly less than 7 pages. what was that all??? I got who married who but the rest of it confused me. I got that Harry has kids named after his parents and Albus. WHO'S VICTOIRE???

besides utter confusion, I can' t help feeling disappointed about not knowing what Ron, Hermoine, Harry, Ginny, or anyone else is doing. The only one we found out about was Nevile and he's not a main character! He might have played a bigger role than the other secondary characters, but the contrast between the information given about the main characters and a secondary character is disappointing. We even know that Nevile teaches Herbology! We don't even know what Harry does or anything of the like!

I know. It wasn't even close to a summary of what they did. The only thing I got was who got married, who's kids are whos, and where did it say something about Neville?

One of the parents said to one of the kids to give his/her love to Nevile, Professor Longbottom, and the kid said that they couldn't walk into Herbology and give their love to the Professor.

I guess as a fan we are never happy with what we are given; but pls don't get me wrong! I LOVED THE BOOK!!!! I feel it's the best of all! But that's just me!

I do resent however that the Epilogue was so,... vague????? I did not expect it to be longer than the book, but there was so many things which have remained in the air. Things that, I am sure thousand, and thousand of fans would have liked to know!

As for the names in the Epilogue, I can clarify it:

Harry and Ginny married and have 3 kids.
James, the oldest, Albus Severus, the middle child and Lily the only girl and the youngest. (HARRY NAMED ONE OF HIS KIDS SEVERUS BUT NONE SIRUIS?? [WHAT"S WITH THAT????

Hermione and Ron married and have 2 kids, Rose and Hugo.

Teddy Lupin, is obviously Remus and Tonks kid.

Victoire is French for Victoria, so I am assuming that she is Bill and Fleur's daughter and are dating!

But who is raising Teddy?? Andromeda Tonks??
What about George? How did he cope with the loss of his twin???
What about Charlie? What happened to him? Was he even mentioned in this book? If he was, I missed it!
Molly and Arthur; how did they cope after Fred's death?
What happened to Kreacher,? Where is he? Is he serving the Potters?
What happened to that traitor of Griphook?
Who was the then Headmaster or Headmistress of the school?
And UMBRIDGE??? I wanted to see he get fired and shunned by the Wizarding community. I would have liked her to lose her position of power and have her feel to be on the other side of the road!

Didn't I say we fans are never satisfied???????

I bet the second name of young James's is Sirius. ^^

I think Charlie didn't actually appear in the book, only in a comment by one of the Weasley kids that he would fight once he's back from Romania. (I think it was mentioned in the "vicious femal dragons"part.)

We can't answer that question which jobs they have. It was never mentioned, which really anoyed me. I was dying to know what they were up to and felt a little disappointed to not find out. Anyway, I like how Harry and Ginny named one of their children after Severus. ^^
I bet Harry's working as an Auror to track down all remaining Death Eaters. And so is Ginny, I reckon.
Hermoine might be working for the ministry as a judge in a high position and Ron... well, who knows... maybe keeper for the Chudley Cannons? ;)

Oh, btw, did I get that right that Kingsley is the new MoM?

I thought they said he was temporary(sp?) MoM?! But who knows he probably became the perminant one. And I also agree that James' middle name is very likely to be Sirius. And I think that Teddy Lupin is being rasied by his grandmother - Tonks mom. I sooo want to know what they are all doing for a living. Who Draco married. Although I think it was Pansy or however you spell her name. And what did happened to Charlie. Was he not able to get away from Romania?! As for Kretcher I think that Harry would have him go to work in the kitchens at Howarts. I wonder where they all live. Did Harry restore his parents house in Godric's Hallow or did he just buy a new house and leave that one for everyone to know about his parents. And what about the house that Sirius left him? Is it still abandoned or did he he something with it. I really don't think that he is living there.

from a j.k rowling interview on t.v. she says that ron and harry revoultiounized the auror position so you would have to figure there both aurors and harry probably is the head of the auror department.

and hermoine was high up in some department but i couldnt make out what department.

one charactor who got a reprieve was mr. weasley she also said.

I missed that interview!!! I do know she won't be writing the Harry Potter encyclopedia any time soon. She said she wanted and needed a break! To think I thought I had no other Harry Potter related stuff to look forward too!!! *shakes head* Happily mistaken!!!
