Are Myrtle and Percy working for the Order?
Although Myrtle is a bit of a flake, she has been very helpful to
Harry. She helped him during CoS and GoF. Is it possible that Myrtle
is working under DD's orders? Is it possible that DD knew that the
kids were hanging out in the girl's bathroom during CoS?
Percy knew that Ron was hanging out in the girl's bathroom. And
Percy was also lurking near the Slytherin dormitories when Ron and
Harry were disguised as Crab and Goyle. I always found it funny that
the movie version kept Percy in this scene, since it would have
worked just as well without him. (Yet, in the SS movie, they gave
away much of Neville's dialog to other characters, and removed him
from the forest scene altogether.)
Is it possible that DD gave Percy specific guard/patrol duties? If DD
does indeed know pretty much everything that goes on at the school,
wouldn't he make use of Percy and Myrtle's natural nosiness?
Remember how DD did not look at Harry during the OOTP trial? Well,
Percy didn't either. Did DD tell him not to look at Harry? What if
Percy is working for DD? DD wouldn't want Voldemort to see that
information either. (I know we are made to believe that Percy doesn't
look at Harry because he doesn't want to have anything to do with
him.)
Is it possible that one of the protection spells on the school,
forces those who work there to abide by the headmaster's wishes? Does
the school see the Prefects and Head boy/girl as employees (keepers
of order) to the school? Was Quirrel having difficulty following
Voldemort's orders during SS/PS because of this protection spell?
(Remember when Harry heard Quirrel crying in one of the classrooms?)
Is this why fake Moody taught the children a valuable lesson on how
to protect themselves? And why Snape hasn't killed Harry yet(just
kidding)? Is this also why Snape is forced to protect Harry, and why
he is always trying to get him expelled (since the spell has no
effect outside of the school)?
I wonder why it didn't work for Umbridge? Perhaps you are only bound
to the headmaster if you sign a contract to teach at the school (much
like Hermione's DADA contract). Since Fudge was responsible for
placing Umbridge at the school, I'm sure she did not make any
agreements/contracts with DD.
I know this is all speculation, and that there are a lot of holes.
