yeah, when dobby died I cried too. It was written so well, soo tragic and with all of the story before - with malfoy manor it was really dramatically and I was so overwhelmed with everything. But all the other ones were sad too. I felt so bad for harry sometimes, that he lost so many people, who were close to him (e.g. sirius and dumbledore) and of course hedwig.

Dobby, because it was so sad. Hedwig, because it was really unexpected. I expected people to die, but I couldn't believe JKR AKd Hedwig. Fred, because even though I knew one of the Weasleys had to go, I thought it would be Percy - he comes back repentant only to die a martyr to the cause. I wasn't really all that surprised that she knocked off Lupin, because I think she really wanted to kill off all everyone from that generation, including Snape, but I was shocked at Tonks. I didn't think that poor baby Teddy would end up an orphan.

Dobby and Fred had me crying for a while, I couldn't go on. And Harry's 'death'. That made me bawl like a baby and I locked my room and didn't read for a while after that as well...

There are so many deaths in the series, but which ones had the most impact on the storyline and which ones do you think, if it never happened, could have been beneficial to either of the characters left alive. I think that there are two deaths that had the most impact at the storyline, for Harry. One was Sirius, because there he lost his last hope of living the happy family that his parents meant to him and worst of all, it was "his" fault. He had to live with the weight of the guilt and soon after that he discover that there is not other way, he'll have to fight against Voldermort and it can mean that other people can die for "his" fault. And the other was Dobby death, that in an unhappy coincidence, had a meaning similar to Sirius' and to get worse what could have saved Sirius was what helped in Dobby's death, the piece of mirror that Sirius' gave to him (plus that Bellatrix killed both). But this time he got to see, that he had to stop going to something that could help for what he had really to do and that was getting Horcrux and killing Voldemort, no more hutting for possibilities. I see both like an unfortunately remembering of what was his role in all that was happening. Well, JK said that she killed Lupin because she "had" to kill a father image and how she couldn't kill Arthur in Ootp, which was her original choice, she had to kill Lupin. So I think it fits the question, but when I DO love Lupin's characther, it was Arthur Weasley, I can't imagine how much his death would have hurt the Weasleys and worst what they would have become in the next books. It would have changed many things (in not a good way) in the book, that I can't do myself to think about it. Now the death that had the most impact in me, without a doubt it was Dumbledore's, I cried like a baby. Because through the sixth book I come to understand DD's fully. I had already my admiration and my suspicious for him, but in this book I really could see him. Reading about him in DH, just made me love him more and in some way makes me happy, because I knew I was right about him. *hugs Dumbledore*

Dobby's, Hedwig's, Fred's, and Snape's deaths all made me sad because I didn't expect it.

I'll just list some deaths that weren't mentioned-
Cedric's death - so that Harry could see the thestrals and use them to....well not save Sirus really xD Also, if Cedric had not died then Cho and Harry wouldn't have had a chance. At all. And I think the story would have turned out differently.
Harry's death for sure! Without him "dying" or the Snake dying, then two horcruxes would still be "alive."
Pettigrew's death. I don't remember exactly- but I think he saved Harry by dying. In his "moment of hesitation."
