摘選自羅琳親寫的官網原文：Sorted into Gryffindor house, Remus Lupin was swiftly befriended by two cheerful, confident and rebellious boys, James Potter and Sirius Black. They were attracted by Remus』s quiet sense of humour and a kindness that they valued, even if they did not always possess it themselves. Remus, always the underdog』s friend, was kind to short and rather slow Peter Pettigrew, a fellow Gryffindor, whom James and Sirius might not have thought worthy of their attention without Remus』s persuasion. Soon, these four became inseparable.
Remus functioned as the conscience of this group, but it was an occasionally faulty conscience. He did not approve of their relentless bullying of Severus Snape, but he loved James and Sirius so much, and was so grateful for their acceptance, that he did not always stand up to them as much as he knew he should.

而且國內詹姆的很多粉絲一直帶著一股邪氣，尤其是一些以攻擊斯內普為主的粉絲，斯內普的粉絲同理。

矯枉過正美化校園霸凌行為。我上外網知乎quora一看，詹姆波特的風評非常一般啊？怎麼到了國內知乎就各種洗了？而且quora很多相關問題都是圍繞詹姆波特霸凌展開的。在一個「Do you hate James Potter？Why？」問題的六十多個回答下有一篇高贊回答把詹姆波特不受HP普遍讀者的喜愛的原因闡明的非常清楚了（這是來自某乎的段落，裡面甚至貼上了外網批判的原文）

In childhood, Draco associated mainly with the pure-blood children of his father's ex-Death Eater cronies,and therefore arrived at Hogwarts with a small gang of friends already made,including Theodore Nott and Vincent Crabbe.（童年時代的德拉科主要跟他父親那些前食死徒朋友的純血統孩子們有接觸，當他走進霍格沃茨的時候已經有了一小幫朋友，其中就有西奧多·諾特和文森特·克拉布。）
Rowling created a subplot which was eventually cut from the series storyline, where Theodore and Draco Malfoywere talking in the garden ofMalfoy Manor, which would have been one of the few times that Draco would be seen conversing with someone he regarded as an equal, as Rowling said that Theodore was just as pure-bloodedas him. Rowling stated that she liked the scene so much that she tried to use it twice: first inChamber of Secretsand second inGoblet of Fire。（羅琳說西奧多·諾特曾出現在《密室》或者《火焰杯》中有一個在馬爾福莊園發生的刪除的情節。德拉科.馬爾福在馬爾福莊園的花園與斯萊特林的西奧多·諾特談話。羅琳說她其實很喜歡這一幕：首先這展現了馬爾福的家，德拉科成長的地方和女貞街4號之間的區別；然後因為我們很少見到德拉科和任何他平等對待的人交談，但是他這麼對待西奧多，因為西奧多是跟他一樣的純血統並且還稍微聰明點兒。這兩個食死徒的兒子在一起討論鄧不利多在霍格沃茲的地位以及哈利.波特，關於其的各種他們從食死徒那聽到的這個嬰兒男孩如何從黑魔頭的襲擊中幸存下來。）
JKR: Well, I'm glad you think so, because I enjoyed this one. Draco did a lot of growing up in this book as well. I had an interesting discussion, I thought, with my editor Emma, about Draco. She said to me, "So, Malfoy can do Occlumency," which obviously Harry never mastered and has now pretty much given up on doing, or attempting. And she was querying this and wondering whether he should be as good as it, but I think Draco would be very gifted in Occlumency, unlike Harry. Harry』s problem with it was always that his emotions were too near the surface and that he is in some ways too damaged. But he's also very in touch with his feelings about what's happened to him. He's not repressed, he's quite honest about facing them, and he couldn't suppress them, he couldn't suppress these memories. But I thought of Draco as someone who is very capable of compartmentalizing his life and his emotions, and always has done. So he's shut down his pity, enabling him to bully effectively. He's shut down compassion — how else would you become a Death Eater? So he suppresses virtually all of the good side of himself. But then he's playing with the big boys, as the phrase has it, and suddenly, having talked the talk he's asked to walk it for the first time and it is absolutely terrifying. And I think that that is an accurate depiction of how some people fall into that kind of way of life and they realize what they're in for. I felt sorry for Draco. Well, I』ve always known this was coming for Draco, obviously, however nasty he was.
Harry is correct in believing that Draco would not have killed Dumbledore, which I think is clear when he starts to lower his wand, when the matter is taken out of his hands.】
Voldemort和阿布拉克薩斯的肖像說了幾句，又去看了馬爾福家族的掛毯，馬爾福家族掛毯並不是單一的綠色，整體顯得有些中世紀風格，但類似孔雀開屏的枝狀。馬爾福家族的人口真是一脈相傳，枝葉再繁茂也不會真的岔開，最上面寫著一句法文：N'ayez pas peur et evitez l'ambition（不要畏懼和躲避野心）
弗雷德低頭無奈一笑，等吃完了，他輕聲道："If I receive a remarkable flower for everyday I draw about you, I could lie forever in my youth.（如果我在畫你的每一天都能得到一朵非凡的花，那麼我將永遠躺在我的青春裡）"
【If I receive a remarkable flower for everyday I draw about you, I could lie forever in my youth.（如果我在畫你的每一天都能得到一朵非凡的花，那麼我將永遠躺在我的青春裡）】If I (r)eceive a (r)emarkable (f)lower for (e)veryday I (d)raw (a)bout you, I could (l)ie forever in my (y)outh.不是藏頭詩，就是用了萊拉（Lyra）和弗雷德（Fred）的幾個首字母。朋友為弗雷德和萊拉寫的∼
①這個說法出自羅琳所撰寫的《馬爾福家族》：盧修斯·馬爾福一世曾經是伊麗莎白一世的追求者，有些巫師歷史學家甚至提出，女王在那之後反對婚姻是因為被追求自己失敗的馬爾福下了詛咒。（ there is ample evidence to suggest that the first Lucius Malfoy was an unsuccessful aspirant to the hand of Elizabeth I, and some wizarding historians allege that the Queen』s subsequent opposition to marriage was due to a jinx placed upon her by the thwarted Malfoy.）
