What am I doing today? I need some more sleep! Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 28/07/2010 02:36:54 PM
Bathilda Bagshot appears again.

The Chekov's gun of the newspaper with Scabbers is introduced very neatly and buried in apparent filler early on.

As is the sneakscope which keeps indicating Scabbers' nature (at least how I understand its constant whining).

Hmm, that's all I can think of at the moment.

Which is dumbledore's mentioning of Professor Trewlaney's (sp?) first prophecy


All these folders fall under the 1-3 chapters thread. Ok Dark Knight get it together...sheesh
