WARDED TO THE INQUISITORIAL SQUAD

The Carrows have informed me that all members of the IS not doing Rounds are to attend Sunday detention in order to help manage the individuals who will be serving. I was told that everyone is to bring their wands and come prepared to deal with chronic troublemakers.

	With all of us there, it shouldn't be so bad. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I hope they'll be less inclined to talk back. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	What do you think that they'll do to those of us who are well-behaved but can't do it? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It's not an easy spell to master, Pansy. I doubt they're going to punish anyone who is actually trying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I want to be a good example. But it's really difficult. I don't think I could do it on a person. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Most people don't fight back. I could help you, if you want? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 08:10 am UTC (link)
	I'd rather learn from you than from him. Just because I follow their orders doesn't mean I want to spend any more time with him than necessary. I don't understand why they're doing this, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What? Teaching us the Unforgivables? I'd thought that was obvious. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 08:19 am UTC (link)
	It seems very short-sighted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 08:38 am UTC (link)
	They're training up soldiers, Pansy. We're the next generation of Death Eaters, meant to keep things in line now that we've finally got control. Teaching all of us isn't very smart, but... Nobody ever accused the Carrows of being overly intelligent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 08:41 am UTC (link)
	The last thing we need is people like Longbottom and Jones knowing how to use the Unforgivables. They'll only use them to fight the Dark Lord, once they break down their moral objections, they'll realise that they've been given powerful weapons against the Death Eaters. Or, they would if they were any more intelligent than the Carrows are. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 08:46 am UTC (link)
	I doubt they will. They'll be trying to defeat the Death Eaters to the last with expelliarmus and petrificus totalus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 08:48 am UTC (link)
	Do you really think that? Even Longbottom seems to be trying. This isn't how I would do things around here at all. Not that I mind learning myself, but the idea of them knowing makes me uncomfortable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 09:33 am UTC (link)
	This isn't how I would do it, either. All the Carrows are doing is making stronger enemies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 09:41 am UTC (link)
	They're half-bloods. They should not be in charge of something as important as Hogwarts. And I would have thought Professor Snape would be wise enough to see what's so flawed about this whole thing. I mean, you didn't even have to push much to get Longbottom to try it, did you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Pansy.

Professor Snape is smart enough not to question the Dark Lord when he's given an order. He probably sees exactly what is so flawed about it, but he can't do anything about it exactly try to curb the Carrows when they go too far. Right now, they're not doing anything that Umbridge and Moody haven't already done.

I think it was because it was me. He was actually eager to do it.

	You don't think that the Dark Lord knows better than to teach his enemies powerful magic? That ~~scar~~ ~~wor~~ is disconcerting. I mean, not that Longbottom is a big fat hypocrite, we could have guessed as much. But he's not much of a wizard. What if he messes up and scrambles your brains? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Pansy.

I think the Dark Lord believes that he can make everyone submit to his will eventually. So what's the point of not treating all of us with the proper qualities the same when we will all eventually be his loyal followers.

He seemed to do all right with his frog as long as it was close. But I doubt my brains will be scrambled. And if they are, either Madam Pomfrey or Professor Snape will be able to fix it, I'm sure.

But surely he must realise that some people are irredeemable, aren't even really worth trying to convince to come over to the right side. Longbottom -- his blood may be pure but who cares when he's a worthless wizard and opposes us at every turn? And then the likes of Jones, it's not as though she even has her blood to recommend her.

It seems like rather a large risk for them to have you take, though. At any rate, I suppose there's nothing we can do about it so I shouldn't complain, even if I'm apparently not any good at it, if Longbottom was managing and I wasn't, really.

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 10:05 am UTC (link)
	Possibly. But everyone has to be given the option. There's a lot of different factors involved, Pansy. Try not to worry about it too much, all right, and we'll find somewhere to practice in the next few days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:07 am UTC (link)
	I suppose you'd understand better than I do. It's hard not to worry. But you're right. Longbottom probably just got lucky. Are you nervous about tomorrow? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 10:12 am UTC (link)
	I'm less nervous and more frustrated. I know the Carrows are going to try something to "help" Slytherin get the win, but that isn't helping our House image at all. We can do it without the help, but nobody believes that because of them constantly giving us assistance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:15 am UTC (link)
	~~It's not worth it to~~ It's true. When they "helped" against Gryffindor, it just led everyone to believe that Slytherin has no Quidditch talent, which is obviously not true. Then they feel justified insulting you because it doesn't matter how well you played, you would have won anyway. I think you can make it a short match, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 10:18 am UTC (link)
	I'm going to try. If I get a quick snitch catch before the Carrows manage to try anything, maybe people will actually finally believe that I didn't buy my way onto the team. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:22 am UTC (link)
	I hope so. I wish that people would realise how hard we you work at everything. It's not like we just get things handed to us. But some people will probably still think that no matter how amazing you are because they're determined to hate us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 10:25 am UTC (link)
	We're their scapegoat. Having the Carrows to blame isn't enough. They need an enemy among their peers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:28 am UTC (link)
	I still want to know what any of them actually think they'd do in our positions. I keep trying to help them and they either don't see it or don't care. Can you believe Parvati Patil actually had the nerve to insult me for sticking up for her sister the other day? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 10:30 am UTC (link)
	I can considering she called me a selfish coward because I haven't told the Carrows not to 'help' us during Quidditch matches. Yes. I can see exactly how that conversation would go. It ends with me getting hexed for being ungrateful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:32 am UTC (link)
	Why does she think that we have any sort of control over them? She is such an idiot. I blame being Sorted into Gryffindor. That would be a really bad idea. To be honest, I was worried he was going to round on me in Dark Arts the other day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 10:44 am UTC (link)
	I have no idea. I would think it would be obvious that we can't control them when Professor Snape barely can. We're all afraid of that, and I don't see why these people don't get it. Just because they're willing to let themselves get beaten to a pulp doesn't mean the rest of us are willing to risk it going too far. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:47 am UTC (link)
	"Oh, you should leave Longbottom alone!" "Oh, yes, of course, Pansy and Draco! Thanks for pointing that out!" That's why I want to make sure I get the Imperius Curse. I want to make sure that they still like me. Also -- do you think Longbottom is in that stupid Dumbledore's Army? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 11:05 am UTC (link)
	Undoubtedly. He was one of Potter's lackeys, and that was his pet project, wasn't it? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Pansy. abroddraca 2012-01-14 12:21 pm UTC (link)
	Hey. I was wondering, would you mind if Hannah Abbott joined us for practicing? She's concerned about getting the spell down correctly, and I offered to help, but I'm thinking doubling up on studying the same thing with two different people is probably not the best way to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Draco. puggly 2012-01-14 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	~~I thought it would just be u~~ That's fine. She probably needs the practice. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well perhaps we will be practicing there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Theodore. agreeing 2012-01-14 12:25 pm UTC (link)
	Do you think so? I was a little sad because I thought we wouldn't get to practice again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Claudia rabbity 2012-01-14 12:28 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know. Perhaps we'll just be using other curses. We can always practice earlier in the day. I'm sure I can scare up someone's pet rat or toad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Theodore. agreeing 2012-01-14 12:29 pm UTC (link)
