Betsy Hp:
I agree with Jen.  I'm sure Borgin has been involved in a lot of 
dark dealings considering his store.  Not only does Lucius not scare 
him, he actually had Tom Riddle himself working for him at one 
point.

Betsy Hp:
Plus, both of those items were being *sold* by Mr. Borgin.  No, I 
doubt it's a dark object either.  The man makes his living off such 
things, they could hardly frighten him so badly.

Betsy Hp:
Hmmm.... Could well be, especially since Draco often knows more than 
he should.  Or!  What if Borgin has a grandchild or a niece or 
nephew or something?  Maybe Draco had a picture of them.  The Fenrir 
threat follows pretty quickly on the heels of Draco showing Borgin 
something, so maybe the two are connected somehow?  That would 
certainly be creepy enough.
