After the Deathly Hallows...?

Question

A lotta questions:

1) Voldemort's soul in Harry was destroyed. So does this mean Harry's no longer a Parselmouth?

2) How did Umbridge manage to conjure a Patronus while wearing the locket when Harry wasn't able to?

3)What happens to George Weasley and the Weasley's Wizarding Wheeszes?

4) Who's the Minister of Magic?

5) What become's of the Harry, Ron and Ginny? (their proffesions)

Answer 1

1) Yes. Harry's no longer a parselmouth.

2) Because she is a very nasty piece of work. She has an affinity for this horrible object, which would help rather than hinder her.

3) He continues with the WWW (along with Ron) and has a son named Fred!

4 and 5) Kingsley became permanent Minister for Magic and he wanted Harry to head up his new Auror department. Harry did so. Ron joined George at Weasleys’ Wizarding Wheezes (which became a huge money-spinner). After a few years as a celebrated player for the Holyhead Harpies, Ginny retired to have her family and to become the Senior Quidditch correspondent at the Daily Prophet!

Answer 2

1. Voldemort transferred alot of himself to Harry, his soul was just part of it. I don't think that the destruction of that part of the soul would remove any extra things that Harry got, such as being a Parselmouth.

2. Harry wasn't able to conjure a Patronus because the locket was touching his skin. Umbridge had the locket on the outside of her clothes so she could show the world.

I read an interview with Ms. Rowling and she answers the last three questions with:

3. Ron joins George and together they continue to run the joke shop.

4. Kingsley Shacklebolt is name Minister.

5. Harry became an Auror, then head of the section. Ron went partners with George on the joke shop. Ginny became a professional Quidditch player, then went to become the sports advisor for the Daily Prophet.

Answer 3

These questions were answered by JKR in her webchat on July 30. You can find it on the Bloomsbury web site.

The short answers:

1. Yes, he's no longer a Parselmouth.
2. She's evil, so the Horcrux worked with her, not against.
3. Weasley's Wizarding Wheeszes continues, with Ron as George's new partner.
4. Kingsley Shacklebolt.
5. Harry become an Auror and heads the Auror Office in the Ministry. Ginny becomes a professional Quiddich player for the Holyhead Harpies before retiring to have children and becoming senior Quidditch writer for the Prophet.

Answer 4

1) I would think so. Never really thought about it that way!

2) She wasn't working against the locket.

3) George Weasley was mourning over Fred when we last saw him. I am sure he will continue Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes because that is what Fred would have wnated!

4) I don't know who the Minister of Magic is.

5) I'm sure that Harry, Ron, and Ginny are aurors.
