mhbobbin:

On a slightly different track: Scabbers hides out at the Weasleys 
for twelve years, and in a dormitory with Harry Potter for nearly 
three school years.  I wonder what interesting information Scabbers 
has that he might be sharing with LV?  He was particularly well 
positioned to learn about Harry. (Coincidence?) as he was placed in 
the same dorm room. Was he sleeping the whole time, or could he have 
been listening, and if he was listening, did he learn any 
potentially interesting private information?
