'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'


We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The entire last book was an exercise in Harry being in more danger than remotely reasonable.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Did Hagrid mention that they could understand human speech?

He said that they are very proud creatures and that you musn't insult them.

If I only had a brain...

Okay, then Draco was dumb, no question. (He usually is.)

Draco was a potz. As per usual.

Then they had to raise flobberworms.

Stoopid Draco.

move out and draw fire

It was Chamber of Secrets that was originally to be Half-Blood Pudding. A quote from JKR:

I was delighted to see that a hard core of super-bright fans knew that the real title was once, in the long distant past, a possibility for 'Chamber of Secrets', and from that deduced that it was genuine. Certain crucial pieces of information in book six were originally planned for 'Chamber of Secrets', but very early on (first draft of Chamber) I realised that this information's proper home was book six. I have said before now that 'Chamber' holds some very important clues to the ultimate end of the series. Not as many as six, obviously, but there is a link.

Which leads me to think it's Snape.

On edit: I was thinking PoA when reading CoS. Now that I'm mentally in the right book, I'm guessing it's gotta be Tom Riddle.

And that she was being tricksy by saying it wasn't Voldie?
