This quote certainly seems flinty to me; the only other thing to think
is that Arthur is not completely in on the facts and is being gossipy.
Perhaps he knew that Fudge went to Azkaban around the time of the escape
and is hyping the story up to say he came the night before.  The guards
certainly could communicate to Fudge a little later about the
sleep-talking...

Have fun with it!  I hope everyone enjoys their re-reads as much as I
just did; the last few chapters are so exciting *normally* that I was
shaking with excitement at the realization that we'll know what happens
right after them in less than five days, after all those other readings
in which we still had YEARS!

Falling asleep with little Albus and Voldemort now,
