You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

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."

Ann, that's a ferret.

Jeff, I agree that the creepiest part about Tom, at least to where I'm at, is the cave . My guess is that spiders were involved , to tie into COS .

A world of yes! Of course, I've also been wanting them to make real-looking Hogwarts House clothes, and not just for Gryffindor.

I'm *still* looking for a Ravenclaw prefect's badge.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A month ago I saw a woman (college-age) who had a Slytherin book bag. Just a simple black bag with the Slytherin crest on it. I wanted one....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Jilli, they have a lot of wizarding badges here.

Here is my magic trick for finding them. I typed +ravenclaw +badge into Google. Eh la!

Yeah, yeah. While that website doesn't have badges (just patches), they DO have a patch for Durmstrang. Ooooh, I am so tempted by that.

Of course, Slytherin and Gryffindor have the most merchandise. Bah.

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

Ya don't need the plus signs, you know. Google defaults to and.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

beathen, thanks for the link. The evidence is pretty overwhelming. I especially like the parallel between the language used to describe Harry's feeding Dumbledore the potion and Snape's face before killing Dumbledore.

I like Snape because he's good but a jackass. This entire series is about how people's prejudices are wrong.

Which cave are people referring to in reference to Tom Riddle and the children? I don't think I remember that. Not the Horcrux cave, right?

It is the same cave, PC -- that's how they found it. It's one of the incidents of his child cruelty sketched to Dumbledore when he finds him at the orphanage.
