Deathly is an interesting word, too.

I keep thinking deadly, but that's not right. Deathly seems like a strange (but no doubt meaningful) choice.

omg, where have you been?! *big hugs*

Or could there be some wordplay in there and it somehow relates to All Hallows Eve, the night the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead lift and those who have passed can walk among us again...

that could be kind of awesome. But i have serious doubts as to the awesomeness of book 7.

Yeah, I have doubts, too. Although the release of the title makes me a bit excited again. I'm just over the whole HP thing at the moment, though... still, was worth a mention in my journal to give my 2 cents on the title. :)

Hallows are relics. Deathly Hallows are the Horcruxes.

And I miss you, Snark. Always nice to see you around. :0)

Hmmmm... could be... although that seems a bit too obvious, knowing the way JK has done things in the past. Having said that, someone did write a great article after HBP about the four Houses and the sword, cup, pentacle and ring.

Before I checked LJ, I saw the email from Borders... I'm curious to see what happens in the book... I really hope fanfic doesn't disappear with the end of the book series...

Lovely as always to see you!! Miss you!
