Don't post here if you don't want to know who dies and what happens.

You've been warned.

oooh right, i get it now!

thanks

KitsAndBits · 03/08/2007 13:13

neville did?

how did it get there> i though griphook had buggered off with it (must of been dozing off during this part - lol)

MrsWeasley · 03/08/2007 13:13

the sword appeared in the sorting hat (in the same way as it appeared in CofS) which neville was forced to wear by V.

AlbusPercivalWulfricBrianSun · 03/08/2007 13:12

He did have the Sword of Gryfindor. He pulled it out of the Sorting Hat.

KitsAndBits · 03/08/2007 13:11

Hi,

i know he told neveille nagini had to be killed but she was a horcrux and apparently they can only be killed in certain ways ~(like with basalisk venom)

so it doesnt make sense that he just lobbed her head off does it?

wouldnt he have had to do it with the swordof griffindor (as that had the power to kill horcruxes) but griphook had taken it hadnt he?

So i dont understand how he killed her so easily!

AlbusPercivalWulfricBrianSun · 03/08/2007 12:57

Yes I also loved how he called him Tom. V looking for the horcuxes thinking he'd hidden that he was related to the Gaunts and that no-one would know about the cave made me think just the same as the Room of R thing.

tigerschick · 03/08/2007 12:45

Not only did I post a rubbish list but I forgot that this was the spoiler thread so didn't need to put a warning up!!

fawkeoff · 03/08/2007 11:44

made me love him even more when he was coming to terms with the fact that he had to sacrifice himself....and lily,james,sirius and lupin being there for him......touches my heart immensly.....the childhoood innocence seemed to return at the moment he was asking if it hurt to die......almost like asking if an injection stings iyswim

MrsWeasley · 03/08/2007 11:28

Harry is so cool

fawkeoff · 03/08/2007 11:17

definately............how he was under the impression that he was the only one that knew about the wrking of the room of requirement is beyond me!!!!!!!!!, and i absolutely loved how harry kept calling him tom.......it was like a bitch slap in his face every time he said it to him

LazyLineLegilimens · 03/08/2007 11:15

kits, Harry took Neville to one side and told him that no matter what happened, the snake needed to be killed.

AlbusPercivalWulfricBrianSun · 03/08/2007 11:11

Yes I agree Fawkeoff. For all his arrogance and cleverness hewas wrong about an awful lot of things, wasn't he?

fawkeoff · 03/08/2007 11:10

and i love that there was actually 8 bits of soul instead of 7......so he never had the most powerful number all along

AlbusPercivalWulfricBrianSun · 03/08/2007 11:03

Neville pulled Gryfindor's sword from the Sorting Hat and killed Nagini.

fawkeoff · 03/08/2007 11:03

nevill pulled the gryffindor sword out of the sorting hat and lobbed naginis head off with it

ricepuddingpaddington · 03/08/2007 11:02

Neville pulled gryffindor's sword out of the sorting hat (he was wearing it cos Voldy was making him)

KitsAndBits · 03/08/2007 10:58

Can I ask how neville killed nagini?

If she was a horcrux wouldnt he have had to use the griffindor sword, or a basilisk fang ect??

didnt he just lob her head off?

of was it with 'something' special?

and how would he know to use it if he didnt know she was a horcrux (as harry ron & herm hadnt told anyone about the mission?)

thanks xx

MrsWeasley · 03/08/2007 09:33

Andromeda Tonks didnt die. She is bringing up teddy, isnt she?

Rufus Scrimgeour died

MotherofZ · 03/08/2007 09:33

don't know if any of you have seen this website - but it's an interview by JK Rowling tying up all loose ends from the book

the-leaky-cauldron.org/2007/7/30/j-k-rowling-web-chat-transcript

tigerschick · 03/08/2007 09:21

Actually - on closer inspection that list is rubbish!!
At least 2 characters are repeated and one is there who I'm fairly sure didn't die!!

Sorry about that - must check things before I post

tigerschick · 03/08/2007 09:19

Just noticed that one character is repeated

tigerschick · 03/08/2007 09:18

DO NOT READ THIS LIST IF YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THE BOOK!!!

Nicked this list off some website or other

Remus Lupin
Nymphadora Tonks
Ted Tonks
Mad-Eye Moody
Tom Riddle
Colin Creevy
Fred Weasley
Hedwig
Severus Snape
Dobby
Bellatrix Lestrange
Remus Lupin
