1- I too HATE it when characters rip out pages from a book. What if I needed that page later!!
2- I am a bit of a Percy apologist, at least in the first few books. He had older brothers that CONSTANTLY ripped on and ridiculed him. I would want to get away as fast as I could. His later behavior is not good, but in the end he returned and stood with his family and the right.
3- I love the way Snape “traps” Lockheart into going after the Basilisk. But ya, if they really were worried about Ginny, they would send a squad of teachers.
I really liked Harry’s realization of Ginny acting like Dobby. That was a really important piece of the puzzle. I thought that was a good Chosen Moment candidate even before it was brought up.
I love that observation of Harry and Ron having a rare glimps of the teachers when they’re not in front of students.
