How dark is the world when you are cheering for Rodolphus and Rabastan bloody Lestrange to catch someone in a dark alley? For that matter at this point Lucius & Narcissa might help them.
Terry did it to protect Hermione and McGonagall, because he thinks he can survive and threats were directed their way.
It's pretty dark when you are cheering for them. For that matter, I'd give them medals if they did it. Big, shiny metals claiming them to be HEROES OF WIZARDOM.
It's more than just wanting them to kill Carrow and chop him into teeny teeny bits...
I actually sort of like the Lestrange brothers. Raz is actually a pretty nice guy. And Rodolphus has his moments, and isn't completely bonkers like his wife -- the moments of tension between them about hydra have been fascinating.
YES THIS. This is one of the things I love most about this game: nobody's black and white. Even Lucius Malfoy has a quality or three that might be redemptive, were he to give them full expression. The Lestrange brothers have bad politics and worse prejudices, but that's not all they are. Rather like some relatives of mine, come to think.
