Well, this actually has bugged me ever since I finished reading the book.
The Sirius Dream was different! It wasn't just a dream he had one night. It
was a continuation of a dream he's been having all year long. He kept on
dreaming about the corridor and every time he dreams, he thinks just a
little further. He dreams further and sees Sirius tortured. Did Harry
seriously think Voldemort was in MOM every time he had that dream? Voldemort
would practically be living there if that was true! As I was reading the
book, I wanted to yell at Harry, "It's the same dream you've been having all
year, Sirius didn't spend that year in MOM being tortured!" I don't know,
Harry's logic just didn't make sense to me. But then again, I suppose logic
had little to none to do with his actions.


Alina, who is one of those people who wants to throttle Harry right now.
