"I am /not/ going to be murdered," Harry said out
loud.
"That's the spirit, dear," said his mirror sleepily.

But, you're no murderer, Harry... 


Now Me:

He doesn't need to be a murderer.  He just needs to be
an exterminator.  I know that it's hard, at 15, to
imagine "killing in cold blood", but by the time I was
17, I could understand the need to kill
something/someone who was a threat to the Greater
Good.  

I don't know that I would have been *happy* about
doing it, but I like to believe that I would have
stepped up to the plate and done what needed to be
done.  

I don't understand why it was such a shock to Harry
that he'll have to kill Lord Thingy (Gosh I love that
moniker...)

And, as for one possible meaning of Grimmauld Place,
dictionary.com give this as the meaning of Grimoire:

grimoire

n : a manual of black magic (for invoking spirits and
demons)

Fits fairly well with the Black House and it's
PureBlood yearnings, eh?

PS:  This is my first post.  I'm very happy to be
here, but completely overwhelmed by the 18 gazillion
digests I'm getting per day.  Phew!
