Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows
TrekkieTechie:
Just thought I'd throw this out there -- according to Rowling, the Dark Wanker's boggart would be his own corpse. And Obsessions, when Harry was dueling the boggart-dementor, it had a real dementor's powers (he heard his parents being murdered, everything went cold, the lights went out, and chocolate made him feel better).
Also, JKR has said that the only Potter book she'd write after DH would be an encyclopedia, based on her copious notes, that would be sold for charity á la Fantastic Beasts or Quidditch Through The Ages.
LeeZion:
To make things even more interesting, I found something in the Harry Potter books that supports CmonMiracle's notion that Harry could "kill" Voldemort without killing Tom Riddle.
I am in the middle of rereading the other six books so they will be fresh in my mind when I start on book seven. Here's an excerpt from the climax of book five, page 814 of the American edition:
"You do not seek to kill me, Dumbledore?" called Voldemort, his scarlet eyes narrowed over the top of the shield. "Above such brutality, are you?"
"We both know that there are other ways of destroying a man, Tom," Dumbledore said. ... "Merely taking your life would not satisfy me, I admit — "
"There is nothing worse than death, Dumbledore!" snarled Voldemort.
"You are quite wrong," said Dumbledore. ... "Indeed, your failure to understand that there are things much worse than death has always been your greatest weakness — "
With those words fresh in my mind, I'm actually rooting for Harry to suck the Voldemort out of Riddle.

Now if that last line wasn't a setup for another Harry Potter slash fiction sig, I dunno what is. I so call it.
CmonMiracle:
I'm waiting for my royalty checks from JKR.

Man I really should do that. Sure I have to work and read for school but...well this honestly seems more important. Because to tell you the truth I don't remember anything from the earlier books. It's just so many pages....
What kind of scary things would Dumbledore by alluding to in that quote I wonder. Perhaps the Dementor's could do something worse than death but other than that it sounds like something decidedly not-fun-for-anyone-who-has-to-deal-with-it has yet to crop up.
