***SPOILER ALERT***
Never clued in that Victoire was Bill and Fleur's kid.
D'uh, Aimee.
Well, James was saying that she's their cousin, so it makes sense.
We can guess that Bill and Fleur had a daughter pretty quickly after the war ended (if she's old enough to snog Teddy Lupin but still be going to Hogwarts, she's most likely in her sixth or seventh year in the epilogue)
Also, her name implies that she was born pretty soon after the war.
I wonder who Draco married. I don't remember, what happened to Pansy, do we know?
Last we saw Pansy she was being typical Pansy in trying to get McGonagll to give up Harry.
And in looking at the imdb entry for her, it's kind of funny that the actresses last name is "Gaunt".
::snerk:: A "dramatization" of the final chapter, script-style.
VOLDERMORT: Yeah, because if there's one thing driving this scene it's the Mamet like realism of the colloquy.
Bwahaha!
V: Are we going to rehash the entire plot here?
H: Look, I just got back from The Afterlife Of Lengthy Obtuse Exposition, cut me some slack.
V: I'm getting nauseous from all this circling.
MRS. W: Not my daughter, you bitch!
RON: Yippie kay yay, motherfucker!
HERMIONE: Were gonna need a bigger boat.
MRS. W: What the-?
RON: Sorry, we thought quoting other movies was some sort of magic. Just lazy writing? Carry on.
Heh.
VOLDERMORT: You mean he was weak! To weak to dare, too weak to take what might have been his, what will be mine! To weak to be stronger than weakness which takes nothing which is mine in weak strength!
Heeee. That was all very amusing.
Heeee. That was all very amusing.
Yeah. Plus that Voldermort is much more likable than Rowling's.
So other people found the wand succession dizzying too...I thought I just hadn't been paying enough attention.
