I find it interesting that when JKR is describing Harry asleep at the
window (waiting for DD) she casts a ghostly sight. Harry's glasses
are askew and at the end DD's glasses are askew (wouldn't they be more
than a bit crooked if he had fallen from the tower to his death? HP's
mouth is open, HP wipes blood from DD's mouth. HP looks paler than
usual from the misty glow outside the window. His hand lays relaxed
on the desk. I just wonder is she telling us DD can be "sleeping"? I
mean no one actually saw him after he went limp and fell - no one saw
him hit the ground. I knew for sure that DD was dead when I read the
book, even on the re-read but now doubt is creeping in. Was she
trying to tell us in the beginning - deep sleep can look like death?
Sleeping Draught of the Living Dead - did DD have some on him just in
case Snape needed to "kill" him for Draco? Hummmm - BG
