Yeah. That's what I keep coming back to. And -- I was watching Dolohov, right at the start when Bill first got there, and he looked like shite. Like he was about to fall over any second. And then he set down his cane to start the rite, and once they broke the circle, did you see? Crouch had to pick it up and hand it to him to remind him to take it with him, and he didn't need it anymore. Like whatever they did healed him somehow. And I keep thinking, what if it wears off, and he decides he wants to do it again? Will he just keep killing people?
I remember thinking that about Crouch, too. He looked happy.
Or, yeah, in love. Merlin. You don't suppose the gossip rags are right and he's got a thing going on with Dolohov, do you? (Don't make fun of me for reading them, Mum leaves them lying around.)
...I think I need to go wash my brain out now from that mental image. Ugh.
I'm glad she likes the blocks! It was devilish to think of all the words those letters might be able to spell so I could do the charms right. I probably missed a bunch, so if you try to spell something obscure with them and they make the sad noises, don't blame me. I don't know if it will teach her to spell words, but Mum and Dad had a set like that for us when I was younger, and I think it did help us learn to read a bit earlier than we might!
And that was my favourite part of this week, too. What do you call a dragonkeeper who specialises in healing dragon teeth?
