ME - WHAT did you say?? 'letting Harry leave the house makes him 
happy'..
Why can't he do the unforgivable curses - because he doesn't mean 
them.
Is this what the Dursleys were really meant to be doing with Harry? 
Were they meant to be setting him up to be able to AK Lord Voldemort?
Is this all a setup which didn't work??? And on whose command??
Feels like Nearly Headless Nick just took my arm...
