Pippin:
Didn't Harry doubt his friend when he didn't tell Ron the truth?
What kind of a reason is 'He felt it would sound very melodramatic
to say, "To kill me." '? *Why* couldn't Harry say, "I know this is
going to sound melodramatic, but Moody says..." Was he afraid
Ron would laugh at him or think he was being melodramatic
on purpose? That doesn't show a lot of confidence in Ron. 

Ron's eyebrows rose when Harry said he hadn't put his name in,
but he could have been just showing surprise. He didn't accuse
Harry of lying until Harry actually had lied. Hmm....so Harry
overreacted to a pair of raised eyebrows? Seems to me there's
another character who did that, IIRC <veg>
