Scabbers at Grimmauld Place? (wasThe other 'interesting' answer)

   Entropy :
  
 (OOP, Ch4):  "...and age-blackened portraits hung crooked on the
 walls.  Harry heard something scuttling behind the baseboard.  Both
 the chandelier and the candelabra on a rickety table nearby were
 shaped like serpents."

 Perhaps Peter's been scuttling behind the baseboards at Grimmauld
Place! Now that would be interesting!
 

 Becki here;

 But Grimmauld Place is protected by the Fidelius Charm.  You need 
 the Secret Keepers directions to find it's location.  How would 
 scabbers know where it was and furthermore, that it actually 
 exists?

I myself do not find it odd that Scabbers is MIA.  He is suppose 
to  be dead, right?  If Voldy is keeping a low profile, so should 
Scabbers.  If he is discovered, then Sirius is proven innocent of 
his crime.  Even Voldy says in his graveyard speech that he could 
not use Wormtails body because he is suppose to be dead.  If he is 
kept underground, better ammunition for Voldy.  I am curious what 
will happen, or what part Wormtail will play now that Voldy is 
outed.  There is still no proof that he is still alive other than 
Harry's account of the Graveyard, and the kids in the Shrieking 
Shack.  Perhaps the WW will believe him about Wormtail since he 
was proven to be telling the truth about Voldy.

Becki ( who thinks that the Wormtail question was the boring 
answer  one.)
 
 Hannah: I don't believe Wormtail is dead, since remember DD's 
 end of PoA. 

Becki's back;

Sorry Hannah, I think you misunderstood me.  In the WW, Wormtail is 
*suppose* to be dead, at least as far as the wizarding community is 
concerned.  It wouldn't be a smart thing for him to be showing his 
ratty-face if he wants to keep his cover.

Cheers, Becki
