Hermione’s whimpering seemed to capture Barty’s attention. He abandoned a large metal gauntlet beside Hermione’s head, not entirely dissimilar to Wormtail’s enchanted hand, only larger and longer. He joined George to understand what the crowing was about. "You’ll like this Barty, once you get over readjusting your chains, it is a riff on our Headless Hat, but you’ll see the aesthetically pleasing results."
