You're right about Draco, and really, I'm as glad not to ask him. One never knows what will strike him the wrong way. I would have, though, for you.
And about the Warringtons... that's it exactly. Of course, one can't see what he could have done differently, and he chose a perfectly appropriate gesture for his final moment. Only, I wonder if Charles and Darius don't half expect all of us to be wondering if their father had done something to earn Our Lord's displeasure. They can't relish coming back to school with that question hanging over them.
So, in fact, a care hamper might help them a great deal, as a gesture. Given discreetly.
