--- hermionegallo posted a brilliant post that I agree with 100%, so
I snipped almost the whole thing, except:
Replacement (2): this one is interesting. <snip>
Polyjuiced Percy hasn't been too warmly received anywhere I've
presented it, but it's not such a stretch. <snip> I've thought that
the way Percy talks and acts in OoP seems more like Wormtail than
Percy.
Problem: the silver hand.
Constance Vigilance (me):
Actually, that's not a problem. We have canon to prove that physical
infirmities are corrected in the polyjuicing process - when Harry
becomes Goyle, his eyesight improves. The juiced person assumes the
infirmities of the one duplicated, see Moody's eye and leg.
I really like this theory, because it also explains why Peter is not
among the DE muster in the Dept of Mysteries. He's busy being someone
else at the time. And besides, I believe in P.I.N.E. (Percy Is Not
Evil). At this point, I would like to propose P.I.N.E.S.A.P. Percy Is
Not Evil, Simulated Alternate: Peter!
Besides, I always wanted an acronym.
