Disconnected but holding on.
We had dinner with the neighbors last night. The remaining neighbors, that is.
And I haven't subscribed to the Daily Prophet ever before... I guess I never saw the reason for it, or maybe I just didn't want to pay to read about things that aren't true. And they never cover things like..the disappearances, for one. Mum thinks it's Fudge trying to keep things quiet. I sometimes wonder if she's paranoid.
But last night, the neighbors were talking about Pettigrew.
Apparently he's the one who killed all of those people, when they thought it was Sirius Black. The Ministry's finally come out and admitted it. He's crazy, they say. Locked away in the Ministry of Magic somewhere. They're not sure what to do with him.
It's difficult to think of just how many lives he ruined. One person. Killing some, betraying others, and destroying lives wherever possible. And why?
Is it because he is evil? Not sane?
Or just too weak to do what's right?
