Well, I think I'm putting together a picture, but there are still a number of missing pieces.

What interested me was Miss Patil's observation that the missing girls bore a resemblance to Pansy Parkinson. Couple that with Reg's 'accident' and I can only imagine the rest.

The odd thing is that Voldemort must have known the Patil death would cause such a stir. The way this story has been handled - back page, burying the details - sounds much more the way I'd go about it if my evil plot called for the kidnap and murder of a child. I still can't work out why he'd have directed Regulus to take the Patil boy, knowing how people would react.

I can't work out what Voldemort would want with children, but then I don't sit about imagining how I'd carry off evil plans if I were an evil overlord who wanted to- well, what exactly? I've no idea what he could possibly be about if he's behind this.

But I do see what you mean: if you accept the first premise and then imagine that your brother's been made to do these things, from there it's not hard to understand the violence of his self-punishment. He must feel quite desperate.
