If I'm reading this right, Terry can't go too far a distance from Carrow, he has to have an ampule of blood drawn every week, and Carrow's strongly hinting that if anything kills him, Terry will die as well.
Coming up to Hogwarts to torture Alecto is looking like a better and better option.
(Sorry, Molly.)
We'll have a look again. We've got all day tomorrow. There are still books in the library we haven't searched.
Boys, he does like to make the poor boy as miserable as possible, doesn't he? But just because he claims it doesn't mean he's actually set up the spell that way.
You're mum's got a point, lads, much as I suspect you don't like to hear it.
Carrow knows Terry's got other people who look out for him, care about him - you two, for example.
He could be trying to draw you out by threatening Terry. He could simply be trying to protect himself from Minerva's threat about duelling him, waiting to see if the idea of Terry dying makes her back down. He could be lying so Terry doesn't try to defend himself next time Carrow's on a bender.
Or he could be telling Terry the absolute truth.
We'll keep looking and as soon as we find anything useful, we'll let you know.

SO WE CAN KILL THE BLOODY BASTARD?

Re: Order Only
Date: 2012-04-15 01:29 am (UTC)He liked seeing Terry's pain. Got a kick out of it, the sick bastard.
