Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Yeah, he would have said something, surely.

Judging from his post, the big IT will greet him the next time he starts his car.

Compassionately intolerant

I'm now relistening to POA and Dobby has just confessed to Harry about making him miss the train to school, necessitating the disastrous flying of the Ford Anglia. Ironed hands! Oh my. Poor wibble hero.

Dobby always annoyed me. Supercilious little sycophant.

I kind of found myself liking Kreacher in the end.

Dobby always annoyed me. Supercilious little sycophant.

That's the thing, though. I was totally annoyed by Dobby too, but his death still hit me hard.

I kind of found myself liking Kreacher in the end.

Me too.

I was annoyed with movie Dobby, but always liked him in the books. I also really liked Kreacher by the end. Loved that he was in the fight at the end on the right side!

Once it was proved to Kreacher that Master Sirius was a worthy master, he was happy.

I got the impression he wasn't reading at all (and the next time he comes to post, he'll have read that part anyway), but okay.
