Charme:

Did anyone else other than me notice that when Harry has his "episodes"
during his perceived or actual Dementor attacks, the words the voices say
change somewhat?  Maybe this is a by product of editing,  but here's what I
found in PoA:

Chapter 9 - Grim Defeat
"Not Harry, not Harry, please note Harry!"
"Stand aside you, silly girl...stand aside, now..."
"Not Harry, please no, take me, kill me instead -"
"Not Harry! Please....have mercy....have mercy..."

and then again:

Chapter 12 - The Patronus
"Not Harry! Please - I'll do anything -"
"Stand aside. Stand aside, girl!"

The first exchange is fairly detailed, including begging for mercy, yet no
note of the "Please, I'll do anything -"  How strange is all that? I can't
even make a theory about it, I'm so confused....
