Gerry:
I've thought about this a bit, and reread the scene and I think there
is one major difference here: The danger is not for Harry, it is for
Sirius himself. Sirius wants action, he does not really care about
running risks. Especially in these difficult circumstances. But Harry
will not let him play, Harry does not think the danger of Sirius
getting caught and getting the Kiss is worth it. If Harry would be in
llife-danger, wild horses would not have dragged Sirius in taking the
risk, but for himself? Who cares (well, Harry, quite a lot).
