I so agree with Steve's analysis that it hurts the fillings in my
teeth.

As Jaanis remarks, Percy's actions are not of the sweeping
acolyte-of-evil sort; they're the pettish childish "won't!" gestures
of a very hurt boy who's not as grown up as he thinks he is.  Or his
parents think he is, for that matter.  With Bill and Charlie out of
the house (and the country), I think Percy had taken it upon himself
to be the designated Older Brother and even his parents got used to
thinking of Percy as almost older than his years.  

Big mistake.

Even prats have feelings, after all.

Magda (who is also sure that Penelope is still in the picture but we
don't see her because she's not on Harry's radar screen either)
