G'day mate. Good bit of action in this chappie. Always thought some of jackson Browne's music was magical. And George Lucas probably has enough moolah to have his own Jedi college. Like the forward planning for the troops after the battle. Pity it doesn't happen more often. Nice to see Dumbles get the boot but for some reason I don't think it will be the last we hear from him. And if the Aurors turned up with Amelia to take Malfoy & his band of munchers away, 1. how did they escape & 2. hope the Aurors who were with them get suitable punishment. Very enjoyable. Cheers.

G'day, Zamia.
Yeah, a lot of things were coming to play in this chapter.
I also like Browne's music, but I think the Bee Gee's song was perfect for the night.
Barry White would have been good too.
Lucas: A nod to the master of ugly starships and cool wicked-cool weapons.
Planning: Been there, done that. Like you said, it's to bad most military forces don't plan for the ugly side of war.
Someone once said: "If the greedy old men who started wars, actually had to fight them there would be no wars."
Dumbledore: Nope. You'll be seeing him soon.
The nibblers: Remember when Snape vanished after his confrontation with Minerva and Filius? He zipped down to the dungeons and let them out of their cage and then got them out of the castle, before Amelia and her troops arrived. He is currently number one on Amelia's hunt-down-and-force-feed-Veritaserum, list.
Until next time...Ta!
