In case anyone doesn't have the community friended, the chess game is on!

I like that Ron is helping with chess but Draco is the one who makes the sacrifice.

Sort of surprised that Harry let him do it without any argument or convincing, though.

I hope that none of the adults get there in time to help them, because I think it's important that the kids do this for themselves...

[zorb]

Yes, and I really want to see what the last challenge is without Snape, since everything else was the same.

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

Looks pretty close! (http://alt-harry.livejournal.com/10553.html) Although it seems Poppy was in charge of this one, from what McGonagall said.

[brimtoast.livejournal.com]

So all they need to do is drink the worst-smelling one, right?

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

In theory? It seems to just be saying that one won't hurt them, but that doesn't mean it won't do anything.

[brimtoast.livejournal.com]

Oh, right. They'll probably want one that actually does something useful. Well, small's to the left and large is to the right, right?

I wish we could see a picture of what the bottles were so we could actually solve it.

[brimtoast.livejournal.com]

Not everything, I think. Quirrel's one was changed as well. Last time it was an unconscious troll, this time it was some sort of scavenger hunt. But both times, the kids didn't have to do anything to get through it, because whoever came before had taken care of it.

[zorb]

Yep, I stand corrected. :-)

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

I really like that there are so many people helping or trying to help. Or just commenting on what's going on!

[zorb]

Except for this one.

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, yes. That does not bode well, even if people do speak up on Hermione's behalf.

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

And (http://alt-hermione.livejournal.com/11193.html?thread=76729#t76729) Millicent (http://alt-harry.livejournal.com/10553.html?thread=167993#t167993).

I really love Millicent.

I'm so nervous for Hermione!

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

Oh! And Macnair's there after all! (http://alt-mcgonagall.livejournal.com/8181.html) I was starting to wonder if he really was a danger.

[brimtoast.livejournal.com]

With Quirrell. And I *still* don't know whose side they're on.

I don't remember Quirrell escaping, do you?

[spiffariffic.livejournal.com]

Nope. But to be honest, I've never been sure what was going on with Quirrell.

[zorb]

Or maybe he was deliberately released on this mission. (I'm kind of lost on him, too.)

[sugarjet03.livejournal.com]

I hope Minerva and Hermione are all right! The suspense is getting to me!

[zorb]

Yeah, we're in that frustrating period where the in-game action is probably over, but characters haven't had time/aren't able to get back to their journals yet.

[sugarjet03.livejournal.com]

Oh, Hermione (http://alt-hermione.livejournal.com/11367.html)! I don't know Minerva is going to get them out of this one.

[emiweebee.livejournal.com]

Oh, Hermione, indeed (http://alt-hermione.livejournal.com/11740.html).

[frozen-jelly.livejournal.com]

Oh man what a draining evening! Lots of excitement! Surprising that Minerva is calling the Leaving Feast for this week coming, that means their summer holiday will be twelve weeks long as opposed to the standard six.

[emiweebee.livejournal.com]

I STILL don't know which side MacNair was on! >:(
