snuffles:
> When I read the Subject line, I immediately thought the art IN 
Hogwarts, which raised a question for me. When talking in the 
halls.... even when speaking under the invisibility cloak, couldn't 
the art hear the Trio, or anyone else for that matter? And, if so, 
does the art travel to the art in Dumbledore's office to fill him in 
on the goings-on inside the castle?

Me:

You know, I think you could be right. It brings to mind the line 
Dumblydore uses about only leaving HW when nobody is loyal to him 
(paraphrase). "Nobody" could includ the paintings perhaps. It seems 
to me that of course the art could possibly be "hall monitors". 
Dumblydore seems to know... unnaturally too much about the goings on 
of HW. Of course he's *The Man*, but it really seems to me like he's 
*got* to have insider sources. I think also, since everyone seems to 
be aware of Harry etc, that Dumblydore could've put out a 
possible "APB" to any & everything to keep a special eye on Harry. 
Not because of his being a trouble maker, but because he is the key 
to defeating Vold. Just a thought.
