Okay, now that I have a normal-sized keyboard again, I'm going to reply to this over here for the same reason it got cross-posted.
* I actually expected more confusion/conflictedness there than straight-up horror, so that's interesting. I wonder... I wonder why, and... I guess how that would play into other situations. (Although the horror partly being at HE HAD NO IDEA could be a good point too) (I'm kind of curious what he thinks they think of him now)
* Of course he does!
* Can only agree again on this one * Less sure on that one. I think there might also be an element where if the kids are involved in something deeper (--note how he mentioned thought of Malfoy Manor as a possibilty?) he's not sure he wants to know.
* Yeah, I'm wondering what information they were after specifically (Well, we'd guessed that already. I wonder how much was each?) (Oh, and on that subject (the torture-for-information, not Selwyn's request), what is it with them expecting/apparently getting? reliable information out of that? --they do it fairly regularly, and I haven't seen it blow up on them yet. Well, not that I remember.)
* Oh, yeah, that one was significant as confirmation of something I'd been thinking-- he's keeping information from Barty to protect people, or allow him to act in a way Barty might disagree with (Cinnabris, Selwyn's request, the ISS and their escape, etc.)
* Yeah, I spent a while trying to detangle that one. I think you might be right on the abstract level thing.
* Yeah, I'm curious if he'll pulling that in in association with all the rest of this or if he has that going on in the back of his mind a lot. (Oh, oh, yes.)
