Annemehr:
Harry had woken up before then.  Thanks to the Lexicon chapter
summary, I found the dream he had; it's in ch. 26.  By the time Avery
was being tortured, Harry only felt terrible pains in his scar and was
biting on his pillow to stop himself making a noise.

Annemehr:
Well, when Malfoy first paired them off and sent them after the
escaping kids, he paired Rabastan with Crabbe and sent them in the
opposite direction to Rodolphus and Bellatrix.  I don't think there's
any way at all of telling exactly who followed Ron, Ginny and Luna
into the brain room with Bellatrix -- if you saw something I missed,
let me know!

Oh!  I just checked something else!  Right after Harry and the kids
smashed prophecy orbs and ran from the DEs, Harry, Hermione and
Neville ran to the end of the row and turned RIGHT (p.787, Scholastic
-- the very last words on that page).  They arrive in the Time room
and Colloportus the door.  Harry hears Malfoy pairing off the DEs and
Malfoy tells Crabbe and Rabastan to go RIGHT also (p. 788)!  So I
really do believe the two DEs who almost immediately break into that
room are indeed Crabbe and Rabastan, one of whom is the Baby-Head DE!

Annemehr:
I with you!  I want to know who they are, I wonder if any of those who
weren't named are anyone we know, and I think figuring out this DoM
battle is like doing a logic puzzle.  :)

who was up till 3:30 a.m., =O  and has never read the analysis of the
DoM battle on the Lexicon; puts it on her list of things to do...
