Pettigrew burst into tears. It was horrible to watch...

Because [livejournal.com profile] mctabby brought it up -- HP characters who have been known to cry, in no particular order.

1. Cho (OotP 21)
2. Hermione (PS/SS 10)
3. Lavender (PoA 8)
4. Peter (PoA 19)
5. Winky (GoF 9)
6. Hagrid (PoA 15)
7. Molly (OotP 9)
8. Dumbledore (OotP 37)
9. Trelawney (OotP 17)
10. Dobby (CoS 1)
11. Ginny (CoS 17)
12. Pansy (PoA 6)
13. Petunia (OotP 2)
14. Mundungus Fletcher (OotP 5)
15. Kreacher (OotP 6)
16. Harry (PoA 12)
17. Neville (PS/SS 9)
18. Quirrell (PS/SS 15)
19. Lily (PS/SS 12) [Of debatable relevance -- it's Harry's vision in the Mirror.]
20. Myrtle (CoS 8)
21. Filch (CoS 9)
22. Flitwick (CoS 16)
23. Hannah Abbott (OotP 27)
24. Bellatrix (OotP 36)
25. Parvati (OotP 26)
27. McGonagall (PoA 15)
26. Snape (OotP 26) [In flashback, as a small boy.]
27. Oliver Wood (PoA 15)

Please share any additions or corrections. ("Verge of tears" doesn't count.)

Of course, these examples range from full-on hysterical blubbering to a Dramatic Single Tear.

Draco is still not on the list.

Neville (PS/SS 9 and 11) - "Neville, his face tear-streaked, clutching his wrist, hobbled off with Madam Hooch, who had her arm around him." and "Neville had been sobbing into Hagrid's jacket for the last five minutes."

Quirrell (PS/SS 15 and 17) - ""All right -- all right --" he heard Quirrell sob." and "But I heard you a few days ago, sobbing -- I thought Snape was threatening you...." [Harry]
For the first time, a spasm of fear flitted across Quirrell's face.

Lily (PS/SS 12) - I don't know if this counts because it's Harry's vision from the Mirror of Erised. "Bright green -- exactly the same shape, but then he noticed that she was crying; smiling, but crying at the same time."

Moaning Myrtle (CoS 8) - "Don't lie to me," Myrtle gasped, tears now flooding down her face, while Peeves chuckled happily over her shoulder."

Filch (CoS 9) - "Lockhart's comments were punctuated by Filch's dry, racking sobs" and "Ask him!" shrieked Filch, turning his blotched and tearstained face to Harry.

Flitwick (Cos 16) - "Professor Flitwick burst into tears."

Cedric Diggory's father (GoF 37) - "Mr. Diggory sobbed through most of the interview."

Hannah Abbott (OotP 27) - "All the fifth-years were suffering from stress to some degree, but Hannah Abbott became the first to receive a Calming Draught from Madam Pomfrey after she burst into tears during Herbology and sobbed that she was too stupid to take exams and wanted to leave school now."

Bellatrix Lestrange (OotP 36) - "For the first time, Dumbledore sounded frightened. Harry could not see why: the hall was quite empty but for themselves, the sobbing Bellatrix still trapped
under the witch statue, and the baby phoenix Fawkes croaking feebly on the floor."

Parvati (OotP 26) - "Lavender and Parvati were both crying quietly, their arms round each other."
