I should have left Fleur. I should have known they wouldn't let her die down there, that they would have just gotten her out, and taken the Ouroboros.
I wasn't thinking.
Everything happened so fast and she was bleeding and looking really pale and during the fight it all made so much sense, what to do, and that getting those kids out of the cage would be the best way to stop them from fighting.
If I'd have known how angry he'd get
If I'd thought a bit more, I mean, they weren't going to let her die
But you didn't really know what the goal of the task was or what they would award points for - I mean, that's what you could say. Not that you were trying to save anyone but that you thought that might be what you were meant to do. Because you had to save a stupid egg last time, after all. Right?
I mean, I knew the symbols were a part of it, and when I saw the Ouroboros and the Sorting Hat, I knew that Cedric was meant to take the Sorting Hat one.
I don't know, I'm not sure there's really any proof that it had anything to do with you.
Father was really tense when he showed up at the castle yesterday, and when Mother said she wasn't going to be able to make it he almost lost his rag and went on about what HE would think. So it seems to me he wasn't in a very good mood at all yesterday, even before anything happened.
Seriously, mate, do you think any one is able to control what He does anymore?
I remember when we were little and he'd be around, you know, for events and things. He'd always sort of smile (I think he was trying to smile but he isn't really capable of doing it naturally), and ask if I was being good. Even back then I could tell that he was only speaking to me because he was trying to look like a normal person, and that part of him resented having to try in the first place.
I think he's decided he doesn't care about trying anymore.

I don't know.
Professor Raz isn't back yet. Once he is, maybe we can see what he thinks?

But there was so much else going on too.

But I'd rather
I didn't think he'd do that.
He wouldn't have done it if I'd won. If I'd taken the Ouroboros.

I was too busy trying not to vom before things started to really notice.
I still didn't help matters any.

Is he okay, do you know? Your father?

And I don't think it would be a good idea any more.
You know.
To do something that unexpected.
Especially if he's there for it.

I think the best thing we can do is just try not make him angry.
