Bella - good example, what seems so clear to you from character
perspective, I do not see with magnifying glass even. Oh, and check
into Snape threads,where we all think that we are analysing text
from character perspective. Funnily, we cannot agree on a lot of
things :)

I knew someone would think twice about that fox... lol. Well, she seems
scared to me. (and, no, I don't have a direct link to JKR. Thanks for
reopening that wound for me. LOL). Um, I don't mean to say she is incapable
of killing. I was running with the reasoning as to why she didn't just kill
her "blood-traitor" cousin. I honestly don't think she's the killing type,
meaning killing for sport. I think she tortures for sport. I also come to
this conclusion because the Longbottoms are still alive. (Although we have
no idea about other people she may or maynot have killed...)

And, yes, torture can result in death, but not always and sometimes only
accidentally. (No. I'm not speaking from experience!)

Alla:
And remember her being ready to sacrifice her potential sons for
the cause?

Well, not to come across as mysogynist... But Bellatrix is a bit mouthy. At
DD's recolection of her trial she was very vocal but only at the last
minute, she is all chatter at the ministry but hesitates waiting for
Malfoy's signal. I took her proclamations at Snape's house to be no more
that one Deatheater trying to look more dedicated that the other and trying
to set an example for her sister... This all goes into my theories about how
Snape is an accomplished Occlumens and since Bellatrix trained Draco how to
shut huis mind I can only surmise that bellatrix is hiding a lot from
Voldemort and blerts out thins like "I'd love it if my child died for Lord
Voldemort" (no, not a direct quote but you get the idea) so she could look
better in front of Snape... and Wormtail was there... he's a sneaky one.

(I think it was ok for them to kill Harry at the minstry only if it wouldn't
harm the prophesy... I'll have to look that up...) but she could have killed
Sirius and I can't figure out why except that she's not a killer... meaning
someone who kills for fun or just because they can.

The fox.. that was a reaction to fear. Almost like self defense.

So, I see has as all talk... or, more precisely: Lots of talk and does back
up her felloow DE's but not a murderer just a sadist who likes to hear
sreams from torture... She's still a sicko...
