I continue to like the slimy Slughorn. He's just slightly unsavory, and such a good counterpoint to the Slytherins we already know. M.

Another satisfying chapter. The rapport between Hagrid and Slughorn was even charming. I'm definitely enjoying this book more this time around!

Something I think I've seen mentioned elsewhere - why did he have to go back and change his tie? Could he have been reporting to someone about this event? I know it's sort-of in character for him - always determined to be dressed correctly for the occasion, and so on - but then he's worrying about the venom still being fresh, so you'd think he'd be in more of a rush.
