Tabekat:
"What did I care if numbers of nameless and faceless people and 
creatures were slaughtered in the vague future, if in the here and 
now you were alive, and well, and happy? I never dreamed that I 
would have such a person on my hands." (OP37) 
 
"such a person" - that is an odd way of defining Harry 

Becky:
Funny. That's not who I ever thought he was referring to. I'd always 
thought he was talking about Sirius when he talked about `such a 
person'. I thought he was talking about the fact that those nameless 
and faceless people were nameless and faceless no longer. They were 
now real people. I thought he meant Sirius, and that he was possibly 
giving a nod in the direction of Cedric as well.

He did fear for the future, and he did care. About Harry. Now he is 
seeing a larger picture.

Just the way I read it.
