Yeah. Remember on the day of the First Task, when you called him "Harry" on the journals and he was going to have to cruciate you as punishment? A punishment ordered by my Father, as you might remember. Yeah, it's dangerous alright - but isn't everything, really?
And that's why I wasn't "dragged" into anything. Because I finally got it - nothing's safe. You might think that your family or saying the right things makes you safe but it doesn't. There's been ample proof of that around us for years, but lucky me, with loving parents and lots of galleons and great clothes, I got to be blind to it for a while. Sometimes I miss being blind. No one else misses it but me.
But at least this will give me some kind of free will. So there's that. I reckon it sounds selfish so you don't have to tell me that it does.
So.. are you trying to tell me that I'm not pulling my weight, or something?
