'Twice -- in your past, in my future -- we have met. And twice I failed to kill you[...]' (233)
They have indeed met twice, but... huh? If Tom's trying to say something significant here, I can't penetrate its meaning.
*sings* Three -- it's a magic number! /singing And boy, you date yourself if you can name that tune.
Third time's the charm. '[Those] who have defied the Dark Lord three times,' yadda yadda yadda... (paraphrasing, of course). It really is a "magic" number. Though what the heck JKR means by throwing in there is like Greek to me, too....
