It would seem this fine spring day will bring some news from J.K.Rowling, as she has now updated her F.A.Q section with a bit about young Mr. Malfoy, his Patronus, confirmation about the exact date of birth for Lord Voldemort, and interestingly, we learn that Myrtle was indeed a Ravenclaw and Tonks is a proud member of the House of Hufflepuff!
Update: Andy from HarryPotterFanZone.com let us know that these questions were part of their open letter to Jo. cool!

Caius Marcius A few years back I wrote a fic set in the year 2018 in which (among other things) Tonks was the head of Hufflepuff (as well as DADA prof). It's great to occasionally get it right!

El Cronista de Salem Love the new canon! Myrtle Ravenclaw, Tonks Hufflepuff!! I am not Huffle but I like JKR puts great wizards (Nymphadora, Cedric) on this House. One question: when was Draco supposed to charm the Patronus at the end of HP6? It seems as he had but he couldn't. Somebody knows?

MaraudingEmmalinde who can finally see her avatar again El Cronista - he didn't. None of the students, except the DA, had done it so far. Draco might have learnt in secret at home, but certainly not at home. I wonder about TOnks being a Hufflepuff, though... *joins Dapylil* Open, open... ;)

El Cronista de Salem Marauding: I have explain myself wrong. Better I quote Jo: "As of the end of Half-Blood Prince, he has no idea how to produce one, so nobody knows". So my question is: as the end of HBP there is a scene which he tryes (with no success) to spell a Patronus, or Jo is only reffering to the most actual storyline? Prize to the one who understands my question xD sorry. Language barrier.
