Well, I'd say that's well sensible. Being scared, I mean to say.
It's not that I'm not worried. I just...I think part of me wanted to come here and stay even before I got here, if you follow me.
But I have been thinking--I've still got to make sure that if I do stay, things at home are arranged.
I wonder what would happen if I told Mr Rosier 'No' just to see how badly they want me to say 'Yes.'
Of course, there's the possibility they don't bally well care either way. In which case, I suppose I'd leave, what? But it's possible that they'd be willing to negotiate in order to claim that I turned.
But then there's also the possibility they're monitoring all this, in which case I've just given away my whole strategy, what!
See? That's why I need a Slytherin about now and then. Couldn't do without one.
