alt_dracoDo you reckon that Professor Dolohov's and Razzer's demonstration will be a true duel where one of them will be declared the winner?
Because if so, it might be the sort of thing worth placing a gentleman's bet on. I can think of a number of others who'd be interested, as well.
But I don't want to be the one who organises the whole thing. Too bad Avery's gone, he'd be perfect. What about Montague? I'd peg him for game. Or might it be a venture that you're interested in, Blaise?

Date: 2012-10-03 12:54 am (UTC)Why, do you think it will remind some people of it?
Re: Private Message to Draco
Date: 2012-10-03 01:07 am (UTC)You're right. Of course it won't be.
Re: Private Message to Draco
Date: 2012-10-03 01:15 am (UTC)You could bring it up with Raz, I'm sure he'd understand, right?
Nothing went wrong at the Yule Ball, so there is that: not everything ends up going pear-shaped.
Re: Private Message to Draco
Date: 2012-10-03 01:35 am (UTC)Okay.
And I know it'll be different. Because we can trust them, yeah? I mean, trust that they'll stop. And keep it safe.
Because they're really skilled, you know? And clever. Which means they can control that sort of thing a lot better than the Carrows ever could.

Date: 2012-10-03 01:53 am (UTC)So, if we took that route, what could possibly go wrong?
1 - It's all a trick that Umbridge is pulling just to get Raz and Dolohov to kill each other off so that she can be in charge of Hogwarts completely, re-decorating everything so that it's pink and fuzzy and throws up hairballs.
No, can't be that: if she wanted to get rid of them she could just drive them mental by talking at them until they decided to chunk themselves into the lake and make a dramatic exit from this mortal coil as squid food.
2 - Dolohov is actually Sinbad, Snape, or some other old bloke who's unnaturally obsessed with you - in disguise, of course - and has some plan to render Raz hospitalised (again) and then flee away with you on a mental Hippogriff.
Also not likely to happen, but if it does, have fun and don't forget to write.
3 - Dolohov is possessed by the ghosts of the Carrows and they will take their revenge during the demonstration.
Don't think so: Dolohov is far too good at coming across as an actual human for that to be the case. Plus, we'd have smelled something fetid and rotten by now.
4 - Your Father's going to show up and join in the fight so that things take a most serious turn.
I don't think it's likely - I really don't. And if by chance it did happen.. I think Raz and Dolohov would know what to do. Plus, when's the last time your Father just "dropped by" the Castle? Every time he shows up it's a big production, right?
So yeah, I think we'll be okay.

Date: 2012-10-03 02:12 am (UTC)A suicide pact doesn't really seem like Raz's style. And he seems pretty happy about the getting married part.
6 - This is part of an elaborate plan to assassinate Madame Hooch, because she once said something mean about Dolohov's hair.
If he wanted to assassinate her, I think he'd be more subtle than that.
Yeah. We will. And you're right. it does help.
