McCoy and Bob

(1/9) > >>

Yuillegan:
Really weird thing that Evil Bob says.

When Harry is in Ghost Story, he is wrestling with Evil Bob and Harry has a staff. Evil Bob says of it "A simple tool, but serviceable. In McCoy's style"

When has Bob, or Evil Bob ever met McCoy? And which McCoy? Eb or Margaret?

I can't get it out of my head. It says some pretty bad stuff to me.

SerScot:
A good point.

Mira:


   He may not have met them personally, but he is aware of them.

Yuillegan:
I think Mira you fail to grasp the significance.

Evil Bob is implying that he knows McCoy's handiwork. Which would imply a relationship of sorts. He knows the kind of wizard's staff he creates, he knows McCoy's style. He even name dropped McCoy to Harry, because he is aware at least in part of their relationship.

I am saying, to spell it out, that Evil Bob and at least one McCoy have been in league. Likely Ebenezer.

g33k:
Yeah... knowing "of" someone is a lot less insight than being able to recognize a stylistic "tradition" -- someone taught by McCoy.

Evil Bob will have needed to see quite a bit of "McCoy's style" to spot Harry's work as McCoy's teaching.
