Posted: February 17, 2008 12:07 am Post subject: What was Arthur Weaslys job in DH? |
|
|
Until HBP, Arthur Weasly worked in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts office. Then he was promoted, and transferred to the new "Office for the Detection and Confiscation of Counterfeit Defensive Spells and Protective Objects".
In DH he's still working at the Ministry, but since it's been taken over by the Death Eaters, both above-mentioned offices most probably no longer exist, so where did Arthur work? |

As far as we know, Arthur continues to work as the Head of the Office for the Detection and Confiscation of Counterfeit Defensive Spells Protective Objects. I don't see why that positiion would be removed in when the Ministry was infiltrated, if anything, the new Ministry would want to pretend things are as normal as possible. However, they all did stop going to work since it became unsafe halfway through the book. _________________

Yeah, and I guess that Fred and George would have supported everyone at Mureuls a lot. _________________

It's not like there were a lot of expenses, though. The only main expense would be food. And I'm sure Aunt Murial didn't mind helping out a bit. They must have had some money saved up, and I'm sure Molly's cooking skills were put into good use. _________________

yeah i mean they must eally hide it well, being that they send any one being muggle born to azkabaan, make the name Voldemort Taboo and having search parties for muggles birth. i mean they may think anyones gonna think "wow, this new regim is fucked up, but im sure Korpulens is a jerk" but hey, the world is not stupid |

^ What I meant was, there is no point in getting rid of that position. The Death Eaters wanted to upset the muggleborns and half-bloods. They didn't want to upset the purebloods, beacuse every pureblood was a potential Death Eater.
Also, not many people knew that Voldemort was taboo. The only people who used his real name were members of the Order, that was why it was tabooed in the first place. _________________
