"I know what you're up to! You want to steal my glory!" - p.324

Alla:

I am quoting one line of that infamous conversation only to confirm 
to myself that as of this moment Malfoy does not seem to care of 
anything else but glory. I also do not see in this remark much 
indication that he is being blackmailed or anything, and in general I 
just want to laugh **at Malfoy**. Yeah, he wants to steal your glory 
Draco, right!
What an idiot, me thinks!

"Well, you can't break an Unbreakable Vow..."
"I worked that much out for myself, funnily enough. What happens if 
you break it then?"
"You die," said Ron simply. "Fred and George tried to get me to make 
one when I was about five." - p.326

Alla:

So this informs the reader that yes UV is that dangerous and serious 
and that yes, you will for sure die. But I wonder, is the purpose 
also to show that UV are not that rare? I mean little Twins knew 
about it already.


"I invited dear Tonks to come along today," said Mrs. Weasley, 
setting down the carrots with unnecessary force and glaring at Fleur. 
But she wouldn't come. Have you spoken to her lately Remus?"
"No, I haven't been in contact with anybody very much," said 
Lupin. "But Tonks has got her own family to go to, hasn't she?" - 
p.340


Alla:

Oh Remus, couldn't you just tell them all to go away? Very funny him 
showing up to Harry with Sirius and not Tonks. Was able to get away 
in death only, lol.


"Dolores Umbridge has told me that you cherish an ambition to become 
an Auror. Well, that could be arranged very easily" - p.345


Alla:

Whatever can be said about necessity of Harry working with the 
Ministry, I think by mentioning Umbridge he digged his own grave, I 
cannot blame Harry one bit for refusing to work where she is.
