*giggles*
No, but those are good guesses ^^
Also, for future riddles, does it have to be a person or "animal" so to speak, or can it be a thing too?

It can be ANYTHING related to Harry Potter. So yes, it can be an item such as a pensieve.

The ghosts of Hogwarts? They can appear anywhere, float through walls and such, probably could stick their ear through a wall. They float, don't walk and are not easily seen in sunlight. In DH, Harry goes to the ghosts for help in finding the last horcrux; in CoS, Moaning Myrtle helps him find the Chamber.

A POTATO

just kidding...I really have no idea. I'd have said snitch, but I don't believe they have eyes, unless we're going back to the snidget.

Wow, if that's not the right answer, I don't know what is! surprised

BLAST ENDED SKREWT!!
[[again.jping.]]
I was going to say snape for the first riddle to but i thought that was too ridiculously off....
Anywho.
uhmm...
The flying ford anglia.
i dont know about the ears thing but it saved harry and ron in the forbidden forest so it could have eyes somehow...=/
the flying thing...well its a flying car
the melting thing...it blends into the sky with the invisibility button thing that doesnt even work right
and without it they wouldnt have gotten to school, therefore wouldnt have been able to decipher dobbys clue.
GAH. =]
im pretty much 100% sure thats not right but i needed to guess something..

[~Yun-Ju~]

I'm beginning to wonder if my riddle is too general. But they're all very good guesses

But remember, the answer can't be anything like Courage or Love or anything. That's just too out of the box. It has to be a harry potter character, place, item or creature. Food too if you guys want. But it can't be like an emotion.

I'm going to have to say....a patronus.

[~Yun-Ju~]

Bahahaha!
That would be really mean if that was the answer. Answer is Happiness!!!
Wow.

Nice try.

Walls have Ears
And I have Eyes.
I fly through the Wind
And I melt with the Sky
I am with you
So that you may find the answer to their Clue.


Answer and reasoning:

A thestral-It is a beast with eyes, literally, but also an impeccable innate sense of direction. It is a winged beast that flies and is physically dark (melting with the sky) and invisible (you just see the surroundings unless you have seen death and can see the thestral). This also ties into "I am with you" because for most people the thestrals are there, but cannot be seen. They help Harry and the gang reach the ministry in the last book when the "clue" of Harry's false vision leads him to try to rescue Sirius.

[.Herms.]

Oh, and in addition, I think this is an amazingly cool thread! All the riddles and guesses show such a great understanding of great stories, I'm very impressed. I'm going to try to work on my own riddle. smile

[Anika_Strizuki]

I'm glad you think so.
I wouldn't be surprised if your answer is correct though.

But your riddle will probably have to wait until she confirms that someone answered the riddle and gave a reason. ^.^ But I look forward to your riddle and trying to solve it.

[.Herms.]

Oops! I just took down the riddle I posted, because I think I posted it prematurely. Is there only supposed to be one at a time? (That actually makes a lot of sense, lets everyone focus on just one.)

I'll save it for later. Sorry. smile

[Anika_Strizuki]

Yes. Less of a hassle and more focus on one Riddle. Plus there wouldn't be much of a confusing when posting guesses.

But it's quite alright. No harm done.

Okay, I'm going to take a second guess, using a suggestion by my sister: the Great Hall's ceiling? It relates more to the walls mentioned, and since it's nearly impossible to tell it apart from the actual sky, it "melts" with it.

I've got a riddle in mind, too, but I don't really know what to click on to give people stuff... sweatdrop
