It occurred to me that the Unbreakable Vow might function separate from the will of the person making the vow, i.e., that taking the Vow
sets a certain course of action in motion. <snip> The Vow itself would eliminate further choice on Snape's part, even if he did not know what he was vowing to do. The Vow would assume agency, acting as a sort of Imperius Curse, supplanting the will of the person who made it.
Hi,
This is the first time I'm replying to the group so.....
Can it be possible that when Snape moved his arm before agreeing to the 3rd request he somehow was able to alter the vow without N & B knowing? He was able to negate the vow because the movement meant something more then just pulling away? Something he did silently?
Just a thought.
