*The files begin to shuffle slowly toward the centre of the room, reordering themselves in near silent wariness as Crouch Sr. gazes out over top of them. He is controlling their movements, but they look for all the world like creeping subservient lifeforms trying to avoid drawing attention to themselves. Their weaponry has been used, and they are no longer needed to destroy Snape.*
You thought if no trace was left behind no one would see what you had done, but I've known who you are for quite a while, Mr. Snape. You see, you have remained at large for one simple reason, and it is not the one you are thinking of.
These Aurors are told to look for signatures, markings, things left behind. They don't see how very obvious you are, because they don't see what isn't there, just as you no doubt counted on with your little poison stunts. Normally, I don't accept failure. But there is a time and a place for punishment, and now is a very suitable time.
I believe the passing of my new legislation is the perfect moment to bring in the wizard responsible for the murder of Albus Dumbledore.
