Lady Macbeth replies:
I doubt very much that Kreacher would have been happy
by being set free, because even though he ran to
Narcissa with information, he is very much
devoted to Mrs. Black and her husband - otherwise, he
wouldn't be soobsessive about their belongings and
about spending so much time with Mrs.
Black's portrait. To be separated from that would be
worse than anything else for him <snip>
Tyler:
Thats a good point. I still can't understand why they
couldn't get rid of that mad portrait. I understand
that it was stuck permanently to the wall, but
couldn't they have cut a hole in the wall around the
portrait in order to get it down? Then they could've
patched up the hole in the wall and -voila!- bye bye
Mrs. Black! Maybe they could've sent Kreacher to the
Malfoy's w/ the portrait w/ orders never to come back.
I wonder how the Malfoys would've reacted to having
that portrait scream constantly? :)
Lady Macbeth:
As far as administering a cheering charm goes, it
would certainly be against Kreacher's wishes, so
wouldn't that be just as unethical as killing him
in any manner?
Tyler:
I don't think it would be as unethical as killing him.
I can't exactly explain why. As far as it being
against Kreacher's wishes, he was already being
forced to serve Sirius when he hated him. Seeing as
how they were already ignoring his wishes, why not
ignore them in such a way as to make him happy?
