Ministry. DD states that our decisions define us; when was the last
time Sirius made a thoughtful decision? It all seems to be spur of the
moment stuff, with no thought for the consequences. This is bloody
dangerous, and not just for Sirius. Consider, who at Hogwarts or the
wider WW knew of the current association between Harry and Sirius
before he decided to accompany Harry to the station? Just the Trio
and a few members of the Order. Afterwards, all the wrong people
knew and it gave them an edge, a lever to shift Harry out of safety
into a dangerous situation. Kreachur's presumed revelations to other
members of the family told the DEs where Sirius was hiding and what
he was up to with the Order, but it was Sirius who broadcast the
connection between himself and Harry.
My (Melanie) Reply:
Sirius did not just go the ministry on any "rescue" mission. He went because his son (yes for all practical purposes I will refer to him as Sirus' son) was there and in mortal danger! And Sirius was the reason he was there. Yes, it was rash, but I maintain that any parent would go to rescue their child if he was in danger. Sirius never went to any other mission at the MOM, just this one. I personally think it was wrong of anyone to assume that Sirius would not go and save his Godson. But that's just my take on the situation.
