And if it didn't still make zero sense. I don't see how the words he says here connect at all to the traumatic event when he, Gellert, and Aberforth were brawling. Unless he's saying Ariana's lines? "Don't hurt them, hurt me?" Doesn't that sound like something she would say, rather than DD? Agreed! (http://guardians-song.livejournal.com/112364.html)
Well, that's the whole thing, isn't it? Was it all misdirection--starting with Minerva's line about DD being "too noble" to use Dark Magic? Pfft, it's the USER that determines the sign... No doubt, Albus was secretly the perfect Gryffindor, and Gellert was a Slytherin. I mean, clearly it's all very cunning to Cruciate your boyfriend's (or PRETEND BOYFRIEND'S - after all, that evil Tom Gellert was just taking advantage of the crush Ginny Albus had on him!) brother over an argument - not at all Gryffindor-ish! I mean, didn't that SLYTHERIN Hermione Granger rip open her crush's face? Wait, you mean she's NOT a Slytherin? 8O |P
Really, though, take the Darkest spell you could imagine, and methinks JKR could create a situation in which her Gryffindors are PERFECTLY GEWD for using it against enemies. 'S disgusting. -_-;;
One would think that JKR was making a very sophisticated point about the hypocrisy of our world. Only by unintentional example...
