"..then dragged off his own jacket and covered dobby in it... 'I want to do it properly, Not by magic...'...he dug with a kind of fury...for every drop of his sweat and every blister felt like a gift to the elf who had saved their lives.." I absolutely love Harry here. It's all so very raw and real. HARRY ILY.

"They jumped down into the hole...with spades of their own...and together they worked in silence..." This part reached out and ~touched my heart. So lovely.

"Luna...placed her fingers tenderly upon each of the elfs eyelids...'There, now he could be sleeping." kdfjgdfg Luna<3

Is anybody else not a big fan of Bill ? I can't explain it but he really kind of irks me big time in this chapter and the next.

So they're going to break into Gringrotts. Hopefully this does not turn out to be ANOTHER epic failure like their previous plans...

"Well,goblins can do magic without wands," Yeah Ron - insult the Goblin, that'll def. get him to agree to go along with the plan!

"Mudblood, and proud of it!" Sounds like a good bumper sticker.

"I think he would have envied anyone who had a key to a Gringrotts vault. I think he'd have seen it as a real symbol of belonging to the Wizarding world..." D: D: D: WHO KNEW HARRY COULD BE SO SMART AND INSIGHTFUL ~~~

"...where a wand has been won, its allegiance will change." D: I love wandlore, can I just say? I love these details and information. So freaking awesome.

"How do you know this?" Because he's got Voldy Vision!

"I could tell him about the wand variously known as the Deathstick, the Wand of Destiny, or the Elder Wand.." OR ABOUT ANY OTHER INCREDIBLY STUPID NAME YOU COULD CALL A WAND.

"...at Hermione. She looked flabbergasted." HAHA.

"you-you really think this wand exists, then, Mr.Ollivander?"..."Oh yes," STFU & DEAL WITH IT.

k. Volds breaking into Dumbles grave was a NILLION different kinds of creepy. My skin was crawling. And what a cocky bastard Volds is - "Had the old fool imagined that marble or death would protect the wand?" GTFO RIGHT NOW VOLDS. And he STILL has to pick on old men, even though they are DEAD. D:< Frigging grave robbing CREEP.

I wonder what actually happened when Volds went to meet Snape back at the castle. Specifically, I wonder if they went up to the headmasters office...it would have been cool to see Portrait!Dumbledore vs Voldemort. D=

Question~ What did Harry mean when he said 'meant to know, and not to seek?' This'll be the third time I'm reading the book and this line still doesn't make any sense to me. Help me? I feel so stupid. -___-

I actually really liked Bill here. He is a little flustered at being invaded randomly, but I think he recovers well, and totally respects Harry as a man, once Harry shows him he deserves it.

I LOVE WANDLORE TOOOOOO!

I dunno, the Elder Wand is a cool name. :p

He's meant to know about the Hallows, understand their importance and meaning, but not to seek them, not to see that power & protection.

OHHH. Thank you for enlightening me. xD I totally did not connect that line with the Hallows.

bill is kind of a blank slate personality wise, we just never get to know him, but he doesn't bother me. or maybe he's just really boring.

THE STICK OF DEATH - so much lol

this chapter is when harry finally gets all SMRT on us. i was sure gringotts would be another godric's hollow, but harry was making all sorts of sense and understanding voldemort. i was all proud because dumbly-dorr's classes worked!

wandology wandlore was so cool. i wish we had more details about it. like how do wands get made? how long does it take? how do they chose the core? how do wands chose the wizard? etc. etc.
