*hugs him easily, clapping him loudly on the back* You were living in a cupboard, Harry. That's one of the first things you learn about raising children: don't stick 'em in bloody cupboards.
*wryly* Perhaps someone should've slipped them a manual of some sort.
Anyway, it could've been worse, I could've been stuck sleeping in a room with Dudley, forced to endure his snoring and God knows what else might go on while he's sleeping.
Only if it had plenty of pictures and no long words.
*pulls a face* Let's be grateful for small mercies then, eh? Don't think I ever met Dudley, but if he's anything like his father, probably just as well. I was scarred enough.

I know, I know. It's not your fault. And really, I got on all right. I turned out okay. I had good genes to start with.

Maybe.
That's a tough call, actually.
*sighs*
I'd say he should be punished, but I think it's punishment enough just being him.
