This chapter was intense, there is no other word for it. The interaction between Blaise and Goyle was telling. Goyle with a brain is a scary thing.
Killing with your bare hands... it shows the lengths that everyone is taking to survive. If anyone is left when the war is over, I doubt they'll be able to sleep soundly for a long time, perhaps ever.
I was scared that Blaise wouldn't make it out, or that fear would take hold of him and he'd give up... But no, he made it out, and he might be ok. Athur survived Nagini, right? The only problem I can see with this is that Athur had St. Mungos taking care of him, and that's obviously out of the question here. Worse, medical supplies are scarce, death eaters can detect magic...
GAH! See! I'm really worried about Blaise! I don't want him to die, but if he does, he better see Seamus beforehand!
Snakes scare me, by the way. I don't think I'm quite at Indiana Jones-like levels of terror over them, but they definitely squick me out on some level. So this chapter played with this little fear quite spectacularly!

In other words, I loved it, haha.
