Anyone read it yet/want to discuss it? I just finished it a few minutes ago, and man, it was tough to get through the end. I have to admit it was pretty intense for me. Anyways, I won't talk about what happened just yet, I'm not sure how many other HP fans are out there and spent a lot of time reading it right away, but I'd like to hear from you! |

I'd put the argument in the woods moreso to asking the favor of Snape taking Dumbledore's life than Dumbledore finding out Snape's Occlumency scheme. _______________ Be honorable, be friendly, be trustworthy.

Quote: The only person we know who could be RAB is regulas black, and as you said he was a death eater and in the letter it said "dark lord". But, he also died a long while ago, so he might of given it to someone, or hidden it somewhere else (the horcrux that is). Also, ive been thinking of something. In book 5, Snape is supposedly teaching Harry Occlumency. But Harry says that after the teachings he feels more vulnerable to Voldemort rather than less. So then, near the end of book 5, Voldemort actually posseses Harry, but Voldemort cant hold it for very long. In book 6, Dumbledore says the reason for this is because Harry's mind was filled with emotion. But when Snape was teaching Harry Occlumency, he told Harry to empty his mind! It seems to me like he was intentionally teaching him the wrong thing. If he was, dont you think that is enough evidence to prove that Snape is indeed evil? Thats an interesting POV. I had forgotten the snape teaching occulmency thing. That could be true. Snape could be completely evil after all. Maybe Dubledore had figured this out, and thats what the argument in the woods was about? -Dice _______________ Dicemaster |

Quote: I don't believe that to be honest :-/ I don't think Black knew what kind of things Voldemort used to keep himself alive (the information was covered up pretty good if you ask me) and I don't think he would've cared enough to look deeply into it, Harry had Dumbledore pushing him. However, there's something that might also tie Black to the locket. In the letter, Voldemort is adressed as "to the Dark Lord", a term mostly used by Death Eaters, but this of course is just a theory and we'll just have to wait it out. :p _______________ Owner of Pink Floyd's 480th comment, Darth Sirius's 250th comment, my paddy bro Stig's 225th comment, BDKawika's 200th comment and Jedifire's 100th comment. |

well i finished the book a week or 2 ago, it was abit slow going but the end made up for all that. I think snape is still with the good guys and that dumbledore knew something like this would happenand i was kinda arranged. I think that dumbledore told harry to fetch snape rather than madam promfry or whatever her name is becuase he knew he had to die now while the death eaters were there. i think the whole thing was part of a master plan of dumbledore's, he taught harry everything about voldemort and pritty much told him how to kill him, and it's said that harry is the only one that can kill him so i think dumbledore died to force harry into some kind of action... maybe  well that's my though, oh and about R.A.B not sure about that but whoever wrote it refered to voldemort as The Dark Lord and arn't death eaters the only ones who call him that? so ex death eater maybe?well guess we gotta wait till book 7 to ind out for sure. |

a friend of mine thought it was a black, can't remember the name he said...i think "remus" but i'm not sure on that. He said that at a certain spot in "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," towards the beginning when they are in the Black household, harry, ron, and heromine found a heavy locket, that they couldn't open by anymeans. This leads me to believe that the locket is either at the Black household, or was stolen by Mundungus and sold any one agree/disagree? -Dice _______________ Dicemaster |

Quote: read it carefully. draco's task was to kill dumbledore. snape makes unbreakable charm. draco unable to kill dumbledore after talk. snape has to do the job himself or die due to the charm. yes, he would die. But more then completeing it, he vowed to help malfoy complete it. If he had been truly trying to follow the vow, he would have gone up there and talked to malfoy for a second, before killing dumbledore, he didn't even try to talk malfoy into it, he just did the task himself. -Dice _______________ Dicemaster |

I'm with you. I believe there was an arrangement between Dumbledore and Snape. Snape figured out Malfoy's mission and discussed with Dumbledore. Dumbledore asked Snape to complete Malfoy's mission because Dumbledore didn't want Malfoy to become a killer (he also knew that Malfoy would not be able to go through with it). Also, with Malfoy failing his mission, Snape would have to complete it because he made the unbreakable vow with Malfoy's mom. Rather than allowing harm to Malfoy or Snape, Dumbledore made the sacrifice. These are just my thoughts. One thing for sure, I can't wait for book 7. _______________ The true padawan prodigy of Jedi_Pimp Learning staff from Janus, |
