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.

He also cries in GOF, doesn't he? In the hospital wing, as Mrs Weasley hugs him, and just before Hermione catches Rita Skeeter in beetle-form?

Well, he's definitely working himself up for a big cry at that point, yes -- his eyes are prickling and his throat is constricted, etc. -- but I don't think he actually starts crying. And then, of course, Hermione totally distracts him and he never quite gets around to it. I didn't mention it because Eo specifically said being on the verge of tears doesn't count.
