Btw, I saw Uncle Vernon in a play yet somehow there wasn’t one fat joke in the play.

God, Magpie, you've got such an entitlement complex. Not everyone can be as comic and subtle a writer as Rowling, you know!

not just getting Ron an invitation to the damn party like they could.

Then he might think he was their equal! God, how on earth would Harry win arguments or Hermione get to hold his future success over his head?

Unfortunately they run into Hagrid, the one teacher potentially more deadly than the necklace.

How much do I love that his first reaction is 'Who's cursed? Not one of your friends, is it, Harry?' Hagrid's smarter than he looks - don't want to waste time rescuing a Marietta type, do ya?

He draws illogical conclusions even while guessing the culprit

His plot's kinda like Hermione's with the HBP book. They're right, but no-one wants to listen since they're so frigging annoying. And maybe because they both have a history of 'Someone's bested me. I must spend a year obsessing about how everyone will see, when I'm proved right, you wait!'

Wait, the Muggles at the QWC were asleep when the DEs were dangling them?

I just checked it, the Muggles are definitely awake.

Harry never told Ron and Hermione about Snape’s Pensieve, leaving me to again wonder just how much he told them about the fight with Draco in the bathroom.

I kind of assumed he didn't tell about the crying, which could either indicate he's being classy, or else implying that he walked in and saw Malfoy, who tried to Crucio him (since Ginny knows about that.); in which case he's being a prick. I vote option 2!

A distraction arrived in the shape of Ginny. So that would be a Mary-Sue-love-interest-badly-characterized distraction then.

Heh. How much do you want to bet she begged, pleaded and wept for the opportunity to bring him that letter? (Naw, I kid, she coolly offered, as is her compassionate wont.)
Perhaps Dumbledore was anxious to see a little more love in the world, and selected her in the hopes of matchmaking and creating more babies to fight in his army (about the only future H/G I like is if they totally rehash James and Lily, since they're already so Oedipal.)

What a surprise that Slughorn is in the Sweet Shop.

Wearing the fur hat of pureblood evil pioneered by Lucius, Draco and Karkaroff in the movies!

In case you got confused with the hexing of the Squib janitor, these kids are actually not the Pureblood snobs.

Hey. Draco tipped off Filch in PS and was on the Inquistorial Squad, who worked with him, and according to my WIP, Rowling included this to show that off-screen, he was kicking Mrs. Norris and showing off Filch's underwear! Or something.
Plus it's not prejudiced to use someone's 'race' or disability against them if they're already a jerk! Now, if you'll excuse me, a blind guy gave me attitude this morning, and I'm off to trip him.

I hope Mundungus is selling that stuff to Narcissa!

Hee! So the real locket everyone picked up on being mentioned in OotP's gone, then?

Hermione’s all, “It’s Leanne, isn’t it?” to Katie’s friend, like she’s a teacher, and I find this annoying.

LOL. I just took that as Hermione being so cool as a member of the Gryffindor inner circle that, like Harry, she can't be expected to know the names of the little people.

Harry picks up the necklace to show to Pomfrey. Because knowing what happened to Katie will help cure her.

And catch who did it, doubtlessly. VENGEANCE IS MINE, SAITH THE LORD! Anyway, Harry's all bad-ass for going near it at all (Ron's gasping in awe, my panties are totally wet.)

Since when has Malfoy been one of the world’s great thinkers? asks Harry, who knows from not great thinkers!

LOL. This was one of my favourite lines, for sheer irony.
Malfoy's stupid enough to rely on his natural thinking power and talents, rather than relying on favouritism, authorial interventionluck and being born one of the good people. People like him are almost as pathetic as Ron.
