You know what's worse, what emerson said about fans not having much of an emotional attachment to her. He predicted 0% chance of death. I was so insulted.

Likewise. So I posted in comments.
What's important is that we have an emotional attachment to her.

I do too beMMADfabulous it's not that sad. Then again I'm the girl that cried when they showed Grams dying on Charmed. You can't read the text in the back of my HPB because I cried so much when Albus *died* if Min does that book is dead.

I think Emerson's a great guy ( He suplied the world with mugglenet so you have to give him credit.) but... saying that fans don't have an emotional attachment, is over the top.
WE LOVE MINNIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pssht. Emerson! lol! No emotional attachment? Well maybe he doesnt....  Emerson is a cool guy though, as is Melissa Anelli who provided the good word from the Leaky Cauldron. We will just have to wait and see how it all pans out in Book 7. Cant wait!  |

Oh I certainly hope not! And as for people not having an "emotional attachment" that's complete rubbish. It just dawned on me that if she were to die, who would run the school?
If she does die I am just giveing up reading the book entirely.
No one ever crosses my Minerva!.... Right then... ahem back now.

Lol. What's funny is as despite saying that he did predict 0% chance of her dying. His saving grace, no?
Anyways, he might nto think that, but I suppose there are less of us than in many ships, and Minerva isn't in it much so it would be more difficult to get emotionally attached to her.
Now even I don't believe that. How can you not get attached?

How could you not think of McGonagall and Dumbledore as a couple? They're perfect. The first time I read the first book I kinda thought they were married in the first part of it.

I remember reading it and, innocently, thinking they were together. I was 9. It's a shame really that it took me 6 years to get into it properly.

I was about 10 when I read the third book... yes I read it out of order at first. Then I went back and read them right. I started ADMM this year, I'm ashamed I never thought of them togther sooner! - bad Riku -

Don't kill me, but... I almost want her to die, if Albus doesn't come back. Then they can be together.. And our ship can either continue on like it did after book 6, or we can change the background the black and write a bunch of angst about then together in death. Okay, I was kidding about that last bit, but still... I think it'd be.. Complete. And peaceful, for them to be together like that in the end. -shrug- Just don't shoot me. |

I kinda know what you mean... I really want Albus to come back... but then idk... I love Min and Albus together... but I dont know. Im not sure if Albus is really still alive... and I dont want Min to die. I would be crushed! worse then then Dumbledore died. but then again its not really about me. But I do like the thought of them together after they die. That would be good... idk... i am very wishy washy. But I still want to write JK a letter. lol.
Ok. I am a stickler for the sad storys... so I like the ones where Min is still alive, and is greaving... I always cry... but I really like them. Mainly becuase I think that thats what happened. When she said that he would be happier that there was more love in the world. I cryed bucause I was like 'oh! they really did love eachother and he would be happy because Min lost her love' alright well i hope i dont get killed now..... ::huddles in corner waiting for the worse::

I always read the stories when Minerva is alive and waiting for her death... so she can be with him. I don't know why I just do. I was hoping in the 6th book that they would declare they where married! ~ wishing that would happen ~ But maybe that will happen in the 7th...
So hopeful,
Riku

im still a little iffy about it. I dont know, I hope that she will at least tell everyone that they were married... or something like that. that is why I want to write JK. Maybe like ask her if they are a couple... I mean she might now write it in the book, but she might in her mind see them together. So it would be kinda nice to see what she thinks.. well at least I think it would be cool to see what she thinks. I mean it is her book after all.

Yeah, and it wouldn't hurt the plot for anyone if Albus and Minerva were married, I don't think. ;D

i would hope not. that would be really sad. some of my friends get grosed out when I say that they are. but im like i dont even care becuase im right. they just laugh. but I think they truely are together. I always say 'if you can find someone else that they would be more perfect for, i might consider it.' then they have nothing else to say, becuase there isnt anyone more perfect for them.  |
